About Me

Hi, my name is Sally Galvin I am an Ofsted Registered Outstanding Childminder and have provided a service for 25 years. I live with my husband and 2 grown up children 24 & 21.

I pride myself in offering a very reliable and professional childcare service, with flexibility to meet the needs of working parents. I provide a warm, caring, relaxed and friendly environment where children can play, learn and develop and thrive. Parents can leave their children knowing that they will be safe, happy, loved and part of the family.

I take the children in my care to garden centres, parks, zoos, farms, walks in the woods and around the local area and trips to the seaside.
Activities include art and crafts, playdough, water play, I also have a large and varied toy selection. Outside play is in a large safe enclosed garden. I meet up regularly with other childminding friends.
