My Summary
About Me
Hi my name is Claire and I am a registered childminder with an Ofsted rating 'good which I received in 2022. I live in a quiet area of Winsford which is close to several parks and a library which we attend on a weekly basis. I have two children of my own and provide a warm and friendly environment with flexible hours to suit children's and parent's needs. I plan a range of activities for the children that I care for from arts and crafts to trips to the park to attending local playgroups. We also attend weekly dance and music classes. I like to plan lots of outings including going to the zoo or a farm. I have a separate playroom and a garden with lots of play equipment. I have fantastic comments from past and present parents which I am more than happy to show prospective parents. Meals and snacks are included in my hourly rate and meals are homemade. I have experience of looking after newborns and children with special needs. I am also able to take 9 month, 2 year and 3/4 year funded children and offer the 15/30 hours funding.
My Experience
I have been a childminder for the past 12 years and have looked after children from 4 months old and children with special educational needs.

Latest reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Claire. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
My son joined Claire's setting back in 2019 at 11 months old.
At first, of course like every first time parent I was nervous what to expect. However, Claire welcomed us into her fantastic setting and we knew from that moment on, she was the only person we wanted to care for our child.
What can I say, she honestly has been our rock ever since.
Her structure is unmatched. Every global event, celebration and holiday is covered with a fun educational activity for the children.
Claire makes a fantastic effort to ensure the children at the setting are stimulated, learning and feeling loved.
We recently moved from the area, and are genuinely gutted that we no longer have Claire as our childcare provider.
A review and 5* will never be enough to reflect our experience with Claire.
I hope the above gives other parents the confidence to enquire and be certain, their child will be happy, safe and loved at Claires Childminding.
Thank you Claire x
