About Me

Margaret Murphy Childminding Service

Hi I have many years experience in childcare. I am a registered childminder with the Care Inspectorate and was awarded a grade 5 (very good) at my last inspection in November 2022

My family and I have full disclosure and PVG certification and we offer a very welcoming, safe home from home childminding environment

I work occasionally with an assistant which enhances the children’s care

I am based in Chryston/Muirhead Area

I have a full clean driving licence

My Experience

In my many years of providing childcare I have looked after newborns, babies, twins, toddlers to teenagers

I offer very reliable and flexible childminding and aim to achieve the best childcare experience for families

The children in my care have regular outings to softplay, playgroups,library visits, play parks and walks etc,

The children have access to a fully fenced in secure garden. A large decked area, grass lawn, climbing frame, mud kitchen, loose parts play etc and a summerhouse.

My home from home environment is safe, warm relaxing and friendly. Activities on offer include craft, baking, reading, singing, freeplay, gaming, lego, etc..

I have provided care for many families
and If you are considering placing your child with me I would encourage a formal chat between yourself and my current service users. This will provide you with the most accurate and up to date review of the service i provide.

I enjoy my career working with children very much and look forward to welcoming new families.
