About Me

I am an early riser - children can come to my house from 7am Mondays to Thursdays.

I am located in Kingston KT2 6DL, close to Richmond Park. I drop off and collect at Alexandra Primary School and St Paul's CoE Primary School.

I am married with two children, born in 2005 (girl) and 2007(boy).

I am a native German speaker and can therefore teach your child German.

My house is clean and spacious with lots of child-led fun like dancing, den building and role play. I offer a good variety of stimulating activities such as arts and crafts, painting, baking, music, exercise etc. following the EYFS curriculum. I am a very active childminder with a weekly routine of "Cooking with Sandra", "Song & Rhyme Time" and "Forest Fun" in Richmond Park.
I enjoy taking the little ones out to local parks as much as possible. In the holidays we may do a day trip to parks / play grounds and indoor soft play centers further afield.

I work closely with another childminder. We meet in each other’s houses for cooking, singing and arts & crats sessions. I am also part of a group of 4 childminders. We take it in turns to organize our Forest Fun mornings in Richmond Park come rain or shine. This allows the children to make friends with a wider group of children and adults.

I have a play room and garden with an extensive selection of indoor and outdoor toys. We tend to be active in the mornings and after lunch babies have the opportunity to sleep in a travel cot in an individual room.

I am a relaxed, flexible and happy Mum who loves to offer your child a warm and welcoming home from home environment making sure their individual needs are met. Home cooked, nutritious meals, healthy snacks and drinks are included.

For any questions or to arrange a visit of my setting, please contact me via childcare.co.uk.

A warm and welcoming environment awaits children at this childminding setting. Strong attachments are formed, with children feeling happy, secure, and eager to learn. Well-resourced and stimulating activities, both indoors and outdoors, promote all areas of development. The childminder skillfully supports and extends children's learning through good interactions. While language development is generally well-supported, there are opportunities to further enhance children's speech and language skills.
