About Me
Hello my name is Dawn I am a 51 year old mum to 2 . One of whom still lives at home I have extensive knowledge and hands on experience of SEND and Autism. I am fully qualified and OFSTED-registered with extensive knowledge in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and safeguarding children. I am first aid trained and hold a fully enhanced DBS check, ensuring a safe and secure environment for your child.
My Experience
My backround has been for the last 21 year working for the NHS in a forward facing administrative role. I have in the past worked as a part time childminding assistant, and recently worked on an ad hoc basis revisiting this role. This reminded me what I actually loved doing so decided to set up and do what I love, caring, nuturing and teaching babies and children.

My 2 children (age 1&2) have been going to Dawn for the last few months and I honestly couldn’t have picked a better or more trusting women to leave my children with. My children absolutely love going there and going on all their adventures with Dawn. It’s only been a short time but feels like we have known her years, like she’s part of the family❤️ so flexible and helps us out where ever she can! We could not have moved house if it wasn’t for her having the kids longer hours at such short notice, absolute lifesaver! Both my kids have come on in such a short space of time, my little boy is counting up to 20 and singing his alphabet and also started wearing big boy pants full time, all with the help of Dawn. Honestly couldn’t fault her in the slightest! Shes just so loving and welcoming❤️
