My Summary
Little Roots Childcare
About Me
Hello and welcome to Little Roots Childcare.
My name is Sheri, and I am a registered childminder with over 20 years of experience caring for children in a variety of early years settings, including nurseries, schools, after-school clubs and childminding.
As both a childcare professional and a mum, I understand how important it is to find a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where children feel happy, secure and valued. At Little Roots Childcare, I provide a warm, home-from-home setting where every child is encouraged to learn through play, build confidence and develop at their own pace.
I believe in working closely with parents to build positive relationships and ensure every child receives the best possible start in life. My aim is to create an environment where children feel loved, supported and inspired to explore, learn and grow.
From Little Roots, Big Futures Grow.
My Experience

I have experience caring for children with a wide range of individual needs, including those with additional and complex needs, and I work closely with parents to ensure every child receives the care and support they need to thrive.
As both a childcare professional and a parent, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing and stimulating environment where every child feels valued, confident and encouraged to reach their full potential.
