My Requirements

Registered Childminder

Hi, I’m looking for a childminder for my son, who will be 13 months old in September. We’re based in St Albans and are hoping to start childcare from September.

I’m planning to return to work part-time, so we’re ideally looking for care 3 days a week Monday-Friday (TBC). We’re also hoping to use funded childcare hours so I wanted to check whether you offer this.

Please let me know if you might have availability. Even if you’re currently full, I’d appreciate knowing in case a space opens later.

Many thanks,
Rachael

Reviews I've Written

We had such a positive experience meeting Annette and visiting her setting. From our first interactions, communication was excellent and after reading so many glowing reviews, we felt optimistic going in but meeting her exceeded our expectations.

Annette is warm, kind, and incredibly experienced. What stood out most was how naturally aligned we felt not only in her approach to childcare, but also in her general approach and outlook. This gave us real confidence that our son would be cared for in a way that truly reflects what matters to us as a family.

This is a big step for any parent and something I had been feeling quite anxious about but after meeting Annette we felt genuinely reassured and at ease. We would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family looking for a nurturing, trustworthy, and thoughtful environment for their child.

Hi Rachael,

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to me, and I’m so grateful you took the time to share your experience.

It was such a pleasure meeting you and your family. I’m really glad that you felt reassured and comfortable during your visit—that’s always so important to me, especially knowing what a big step this is.

Your words about feeling aligned in values and approach really mean a great deal, and I would be absolutely delighted to care for your son and support him as he grows and develops.

Thank you again for your trust and recommendation it’s genuinely appreciated. I’m really looking forward to working together.

Warmest wishes
Annette
