About Me

I am 44 years old and have been an Ofsted registered childminder since 2003. I live in Duston, ideal for people who commute, in a spacious 3 bedroom home with my cat and fiance who has been dbs checked. I can also accommodate early years funding for 2 year olds aswell as 3-4 year olds.

My Experience

Before becoming a childminder I completed over 2 years a Btec National Diploma in Childhood Studies at Northampton college to become a Nursery Nurse. I worked for 5 years as a Nanny. After the last child started school I felt it was time to move on and I had recently moved into my own home and had always wanted to be a childminder and now I was able to. I have been working as an Ofsted registered childminder since 2003. The age range of children that I have cared for are from 7 weeks to 12 years and the majority of children have stayed with me from babies until they change school or they no longer need picking up.

My Qualifications

I have a Btec national diploma in childhood studies, First aid in babies and children, Food hygiene. Introduction to childminding certificates

Vik and I go back some time and were at upper school together but lost touch. I then found her on the childcare app and contacted her to help look after my baby boy for me. She had the availability and is very accommodating as I needed adhoc care with doing a zero hours contract.
Her service is really friendly and my boy loves going to her. He started going to her at just 8 weeks old and now he's 8 months. He now has big smiles and gets excited and is starting to wave bye bye to me when I go after dropping him there. She is great with the little ones and does nursery rhymes with them, takes them to the library and reads them stories. It is a brilliant service and I highly recommend her to anyone who needs childcare if she has the availability.

My son has been going to different nurseries and childminders in different cities. I have found Vik the best. She has great knowledge of her job, is very caring, flexible, punctual and knows how to keep kids busy and happy.
My Son waits every morning to go to her. Highly recommended if you are looking for the best childminder for your kids in Northampton.
