Childminder in Kidderminster
My Summary
Little Arcobaleno Childcare
About Me
I am Ofsted registered childminder who provides high-quality childcare in a calm and loving home environment, caring for a small number of children and supporting each child’s individual needs, interests, and stage of development.
My childminding setting is based in Kidderminster, near Brinton Park, and offers a welcoming, home-from-home environment designed to feel safe, warm, and nurturing for young children.
The space is thoughtfully arranged using light natural wood, warm earthy colours, and soft textures, creating a peaceful atmosphere where children can feel relaxed and secure. I use wooden and natural resources that encourage open-ended play, creativity, and imagination.
Resources and materials are displayed at child height, supporting children’s independence, self-awareness, and confidence, and allowing them to make choices in their play.
The setting benefits from a large, secure garden, providing daily opportunities for outdoor play and exploration, supporting children’s physical development and connection with nature.
My approach is child-led, gentle, and responsive, with a strong focus on emotional wellbeing, secure attachments, and learning through play.
I also offer a wide range of creative, age-appropriate, sensory, and open-ended activities, delivering play-based learning in line with the EYFS framework.
My Experience
I am a Level 3 qualified childcare professional with over 16 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings.
I have spent six years working in nurseries, supporting babies and young children across the early years, and developing a strong understanding of the EYFS framework, safeguarding, child development, and inclusive practice. Alongside this, I previously worked as a private nanny for ten years, caring for children within their home environments and building close, trusting relationships with families.
I am passionate about creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children feel confident to explore, learn, and grow, while being supported and respected as unique individuals.
