My Summary
About Me
In my last inspection I was awarded Good by Ofsted. (October 2019)
I live with my husband and 2 children (although I have 3)) in Haydon End. We live in a 4 bedroom mid terrace 3 storey house.
My 2 eldest children are adults now. My youngest is currently enjoying her time at secondary school and is just about to go into year 11.
I used to be a Care Manager working for a Domiciliary Care Company. I did this for 13 years (starting out as a Home Carer and working my way up to my final position).
I have 2 French Bulldogs who are very excitable but very loving. Daisy is 5 and Dottie is 4. They are actual sisters but from different litters. I do encourage interaction with them so as not to instil fear into the children and so they will have a love of dogs as they grow.
I have a full clean driving licence and own a 7 seater car so I can easily transport the children. I have a great support network with 5 other Childminders in our group who we can bounce ideas off for teaching the children and support. I have 1 childminder in particular who we spend a lot of time with and the children get to know very well as well as her children.
I am currently doing school runs to Orchid Vale Primary School. This will continue for the foreseeable future.
You can contact me to discuss any childcare requirements.
Thank you very much.
