My Summary
About Me
I have been a qualified nursery nurse for over 20 years.I live in Chapeltown with my husband and my daughters. I am a registered and accredited childminder offering free Early years funding for 2,3 & 4 year olds. I offer part time, full time and term time contracts.
My Experience
I have worked in nurseries for most of my working life and worked with babies and children up to school age. I have also worked in a special needs school and in my last position I progressed up to a Manager. I took over as Manager of a nursery as it had received a unsatisfactory ofsted inspection result and I worked for 6 months and achieved a 'Good' ofsted inspection result. I gave up working in a nursery as I wanted to use my skills in my own home and work for myself. I love working with children of all ages and provide a varied and stimulating experience in a fun, caring environment. My Ofsted inspections have been good with the one having outstanding elements.
My Qualifications
I have NNEB Diploma in childcare and Cache level 4 in childcare and development. I hold a full driving licence and am first aid trained.

We were really lucky to find Helen a couple of years ago when my children were aged 3 & 1. Both of them absolutely love going and always have a brilliant day.
Every morning there's new activities set out and this is accompanied by loads of outdoor time, reading, playgroups, music, dancing, day trips and play with other children. Snacks & dinners are always really well thought out healthy meals.
At the end of each day, we receive a form and thorough chat about what the kids have been up to - perfect. We never feel like anything is missing.
Helen also prepared my eldest child (now in his second year at school) really well for formal education. He stayed with Helen for all his free hours and really thrived under her direction.
Most importantly, Helen is just incredibly fun to be around. The children love her energy and enthusiasm and really enjoy being with her.
We feel incredibly lucky to have Helen as part of our lives!

Helen is my current childminder for my 3 children, and I am very happy with her services My 3 year old is always excited to go and often wants to stay. He goes on fun outings, bakes, paints, dances, sings and much much more. I have to say she is the best childminder I have had and I feel very happy and sure he is secure, happy and learns while he is with helen. I go about my day without a worry at all knowing he is safe and well looked after.
The meals he has while with helen are fantastic, a good range of healthy foods and snacks, he even gets his teatime there when he is there until 6pm so I do not have to worry about cooking when we get home.
When picking him up Helen is very informative about the day's activities and what he has eaten so I know exactly how his day has been. As a person I feel Helen is friendly, kind, and it is clear she loves her job as a childminder.
When my two older children go to Helen's after school sometimes, they too are excited to go and recieve the same excellent care my 3 year old does, which is all age appropriate for each child's individual needs.
I cannot recommend Helen enough, I would have rated her excellent instead of good without a doubt if there was the option to do so on here.

Helen is kind, friendly and puts the children's needs first at all times. She sets up a huge range of different activities for the children in her care and there is always lots of laughter and smiling happy faces! My child never wants to come home!
