Childminder in West Bromwich (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
Play Planet Home Nursery
About Me
I'm a solicitor turned childminder, inspired by my two-and-a-half-year-old daughter and my passion for supporting children in their early years. Becoming a parent showed me just how important a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment is for young children to grow and thrive.
I am a registered childminder and hold a full DBS check. I bring a strong sense of responsibility, organisation, and attention to detail from my legal career, alongside a caring, patient, and child-led approach.
I provide a home-from-home setting where children feel secure, valued, and encouraged to explore, learn, and develop at their own pace. I follow the EYFS framework, supporting each child’s development through structured learning alongside play-based experiences.
Children in my care enjoy a balance of indoor and outdoor activities, including sensory play to support creativity, curiosity, and confidence. I also provide nutritious, home-cooked hot meals to ensure children are well cared for throughout the day.
I understand how important trust is when choosing childcare, and I strive to build strong, open relationships with both children and parents.
What I Offer
* Full DBS checked
* Safe, clean and child-friendly home environment
* Following the EYFS framework
* Sensory play in both indoor and outdoor settings
* Nutritious home-cooked hot meals provided
* Small, attentive setting for personalised care
My Experience
I am a dedicated and attentive mother to a two-and-half-year-old, which has given me hands-on, day-to-day experience in early childhood care and development. Through this, I have developed a strong understanding of routines, emotional needs, and age-appropriate activities that support learning and growth. I am confident in managing feeding schedules, sleep routines, and engaging a young child in safe, stimulating play.
Alongside my parenting experience, I bring a professional background as a former solicitor. This has equipped me with excellent organisational skills, a high level of responsibility, and strong communication abilities. I am calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and committed to maintaining a safe and structured environment—qualities that are directly transferable to childcare.
I combine practical caregiving experience with professionalism, reliability, and a genuine passion for supporting children’s wellbeing and development.
