My Summary
The Pumpkin Patch
About Me
I'm a mum of 2 boys ages 10 and 14 who is very passionate about learning through play and giving children the opportunity to grow, thrive and be independent. I love learning new things that can help me support the children in my setting. I like to keep active and always encourage as much fun as possible. We love to be out and about in our community, from trips to out local library, the parks, going for walks, family hubs and play areas.
My Experience
I've been a registered childminder since November 2022 and was a childminders assistant for a year before that, I've also worked in a school for a year supporting children with their reading and handwriting. I am Senco trained and have experience with ASD and ADHD. I have done loads of training to help support the children in my care, including speech & language, basic Makaton and most recently I've done play worker training.
