About Me

I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder offering wrap around care for Heatherside Infant and Juniors School in Fleet, Hampshire. I work with my assistant in the setting. We have an outside area available to children all year round, a playroom, log cabin and other play areas. We take and pickup the children and we offer breakfast in the mornings and a fully cooked meal after school. We also offer childcare in the school holidays.

My Experience

I have been a registered Childminder for 24 years. I have experience with a range of ages and needs including special needs. I have a BA (hons) in Education (PCET) and qualifications in Childcare. When I was looking after under 5's I was an Outstanding Childminder (3 times) and now my grading is 'Met' as I only offer wrap around care.

My Qualifications

I have a level 3 NVQ qualification in Education in Early Years and Education. I have Early Years Professional Status and a BA (Hons) in Education (Post Compulsory Education and Training).

I also run my own training business alongside childminding training childminders, preschools and nurseries.

My assistant and I both hold a current First Aid certificate and keep up to date with other legislation and complete CPD.
