About Me

Hello!
Welcome to Mia’s childcare!

I have been childminding 13 years now, I started when my own daughter was 5 years old and realised I really enjoy giving children new opportunities to play and showing them what is around us; our local community, parks, muddy walks, learning through the play,great outdoors for exploring, libraries and playgrounds, not forgetting to give them to chance to rest and feel safe.

We live in a child friendly house which is very close to Jesse Gray and that’s why I am able to offer pick ups and drops off from there. This has worked really well with the families with children from different age groups. Younger children love having older ones around and other way around.

My approach for childminding is very Scandinavian, loads of fresh air , exploring outdoors and having fun! I might even teach children few words in Finnish!

We have a lovely dog, called Oakley, who we got during lockdowns and he has grown up children around him. He has helped children overcome with their fears with dogs and has been very positive addition for my setting.

Please get in touch for more details!

I am accepting 9 months, 2, 3y funding
