Hayley
Childminder in Billingshurst (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
Hedgehog Hollow *Spaces Available Now*
About Me
Hello, I am Hayley :) I am a registered childminder with an agency and have spaces available. I live in Billingshurst with my husband, 2 children and our small dog. I enjoy looking after children, creating spaces for them to learn and grow.
We have a large garden and the children love getting outside in the mud kitchen and sand trays. Inside, I have created a thoughtful play area where children can explore the toys and resources. Children learn best through play and so the play area is always available and rotated to keep it fresh. We love to read and sing at Hedgehog Hollow, so expect lots of nursery rhymes- with actions!- and fairytales that will take our imaginations off into different lands.
We are outside everyday at the Hollow, whether that be playing in the playground or garden or on our exciting trips! I have memberships to Fishers Farm and the National Trust and the children get so much enjoyment from visiting. We also like to be crafty and get stuck into sensory tables!
I offer children a real home from home setting where they can feel safe, nutured and free to learn at their own pace. Please message me for anymore details or questions you may have.
My Experience
I have 2 children aged 11 & 8 which I was fortunate to be at home with them until they both attended school. I learnt a lot in those years about how children learn and play.
When they went off to school, I then took on a Teaching Assistant job and supported children in school with their learning. I am a level 3 qualified TA.
I have also undergone various courses to become a childminder including a level 3 qualification for home-based childcare, a Designated Safeguarding Lead course and a 12 hour Paediatric First Aid course.
I plan to keep adding more courses to continue learning in this career choice.
