Registered Childminder with Special Needs Experience Job in Guildford
About Me
I'm a mum of three, and I'm currently looking for a lovely, reliable and nurturing childcare setting for my youngest daughter, Alexis.
Alexis is a happy, curious little girl with her own lovely personality. I'm hoping to find a childminder or nursery where she can feel comfortable, settled and supported, while having lots of opportunities to play, learn and develop.
I do want to mention that, although Alexis hasn't been assessed or diagnosed with anything, I've noticed a few things in her development that make me wonder whether she may have some neurodivergent traits. For example, she sometimes hand flaps, and there are a few other little things I've noticed.
There is also neurodivergence within our immediate family. Both parents have ADHD, her older sister is autistic and her brother has ADHD, with possible autistic traits. I am also awaiting my own assessment for possible autism alongside ADHD.
I'm not looking to label Alexis or make assumptions about her, but I do feel it's important to share this background so that whoever cares for her understands her family history and can be mindful of her individual needs as she grows.
I'm looking for someone patient, understanding and happy to communicate openly with me about how Alexis is getting on. Building a trusting relationship is really important to me.
My Requirements
I'm looking for childcare for Alexis four days a week, ideally on a full-day basis.
I'm open to either a registered childminder or nursery, although I feel a smaller, home-from-home childminding environment may be particularly suited to Alexis.
Ideally, I would need:
- Four full days of childcare each week.
- Some flexibility around earlier morning drop-offs if required.
- The possibility of later collection or after-school hours where available.
- A setting that accepts funded childcare hours.
I understand that funded hours may not cover all additional costs, and I'm more than happy to pay any applicable top-up fees, additional hours or early drop-off charges.
My priority is finding somewhere that Alexis will be happy, safe and well cared for, with a warm, welcoming environment and good communication with parents.
I'm hoping to find a long-term childcare arrangement that works well for both Alexis and our family.
