About Me

I HAVE BEEN AN OFSTED REGISTERED CHILDMINDER SINCE 2007, I LIVE IN ASHTON UNDER LYNE CLOSE TO IKEA, ALSO NEARBY THE LOCAL TRAIN, TRAM AND BUS STATION.

I PRIDE MYSELF IN BEING AN EXCELLENT CHILDMINDER, WHO HAS RECEIVED AN OUTCOME OF GOOD IN ALL MY OFSTED INSPECTIONS.

I CAN OFFER YOUR CHILD A LOVING AND CARING ENVIRONMENT WHERE THEY WILL THRIVE, GROW AND DEVELOP. I AM ABLE TO TRACK YOUR CHILD’S DEVELOPMENT THROUGH AN ONLINE SYSTEM THAT MY CHILDREN’S PARENTS ARE ABLE TO LOG INTO AND SHARE THEIR CHILDREN’S PICTURES, EXPERIENCES, NAPPY CHANGES ETC.

IN OUR SETTING WE ARE A WIFE AND HUSBAND TEAM WHO HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR MANY YEARS. WE HAVE EXPERIENCE OF BRINGING 3 LOVELY CHILDREN OF OUR OWN UP AND WE HAVE BEEN WORKING TOGETHER AS A CHILDMINDING TEAM FOR A LONG TIME TOO.
WE ARE A VERY HOMELY SETTING AND THE CHILDREN ARE TREATED LIKE ONE OF OUR OWN AND THE CHILDREN FEEL LOVED, SAFE AND VALUED.
WE HAVE MANY YEARS EXPERIENCE CARING FOR LITTLE ONES FROM BABIES TO 3 YEARS.

I CAN ALSO OFFER YOUR CHILD TRIPS OUT FOR EXAMPLE PLAY CENTRES, PARKS, MUSEUMS, LIBRARY, AND MANY MORE CHILD FRIENDLY PLACES.

I HAVE A SEPARATE PLAY ROOM WHERE CHILDREN WILL FIND LOTS OF CREATIVE ACTIVITIES, TOYS FOR ALL AGES, BOOKS, ETC.

I HAVE AN ENCLOSED BACK GARDEN WHICH IS ARTIFICIAL GRASSED & IS AN ALL WEATHER PLAY AREA FOR YOUR CHILD TO PLAY SAFELY. THE CHILDREN LOVE TO PLAY IN THE PLAYHOUSE, ON THE SEE-SAW, ON THE BIKES, IN THE CAR, SLIDES ETC.

I CARRY ROUTINE RISK ASSESSENTS OF MY HOME AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES TOO.

I HAVE A VALID DRIVING LICENCE AND HAVE MY OWN CAR WHICH IS FULLY COVERED FOR BUSINESS USE. IT HAS APPROPRIATE BABY AND CHILD CAR SEATS . WHICH ENABLES ME TO TAKE OUR LITTLE ONES ON OUTINGS.

MY HUSBAND KEVIN IS OFSTED REGISTERED AS MY ASSISTANT AND HAS A VALID FIRST AID CERTIFICATE.

PLEASE TELEPHONE ME IF INTERESTED IN A PLACE FOR YOUR CHILD/CHILDREN.

My Experience

I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AFTER CHILDREN SINCE 2007 AS AN OFSTED REGISTERED CHILMINDER, ALTHOUGH I HAVE BROUGHT THREE LOVELY CHILDREN UP OF MY OWN. I ALSO HAVE 6 BEAUTIFUL GRANDCHILDREN.

I CAN OFFER YOUR CHILD A LOVING ENVIRONMENT, IN A NICE HAPPY HOME.

CHILDREN I CARE FOR AND HAVE CARED FOR IN THE PAST AND PRESENT HAVE ALWAYS FELT AT HOME AND VALUED IN OUR HOUSE. THEY FEEL LOVED AND CARED FOR AND ARE VERY HAPPY TO ATTEND OUR SETTING. CHILDREN FEEL THAT OUR HOUSE IS THEIR OWN HOUSE TOO.

Corinna has looked after my 2 children for the past 3 years, during this time herself and her husband Kevin have become like family to my children, she has treated them with care and love and my children have enjoyed every second of their time with them.
Corinna takes the children out most days, they have been to various farms and museums and my children have experienced many an enjoyable trip to a play centre or park. On the days they stay at home they do different activities and always have some wonderful art work to bring home.

The food given to my children is varied and always nutritional and fruit is given at snack time.

I would recommend Corinna to any parent, she is one of the most loving people I know, myself and my children will miss her and Kevin a lot, if we were not moving to another area my children would be staying in her care xxx

Thankyou for your lovely review. it has been an absolute pleasure minding your two beautiful children. They have grown into such lovely children. They will be missed so much in our setting by me, Kevin ,Jack, family and their little friends. Goodluck in your new home.
Miss you all,
Love Corinna, Kevin, and Jack.

AS CHILDMINDER TO MY 2,8 OLD DOUGHTER, FOR LAST TWO YEARS, CORINNA HAS PROVEN TO BE HIGHLY RELIABLE AND REMARKEBLY RESPONSIBLE.
I WAS AMAZED HOW QUICKLY MY HANNAH ADAPTED TO NEW ENVIROMENT AND HOW CHEERFUL SHE WAS WHEN SHE WERE GOING TO CORINNA. HANNAH WAS VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER AND DEVELOPED MANY SKILLS DURING THAT PERIOD.

I AM CONFIDENT TO RECOMMEND CORINNA TO ANY PARENTS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR EXPERIENCED AND TRUSTHWORTHY CHILDMINDER.

Agnus and Fabian. Thankyou so much for the lovely review you have given me.We have watched Hannah grow and achieve so much while she has been in our care. Hannah has gained confidence, and she loves to spend time at play centres parks etc. (the little dolly and pink monkey at round the twist are going to miss Hannah very much). Hannah also plays happily with her little friends. Hannah is delightful, funny, and such a little angel. Hannah is a little princess and we are going to miss her so much. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
