About Me

I am a Ofsted registered child minder. I have been registered since July 2008.

In February 2015 I was last Ofsted inspected and gained my "Outstanding" status after many years of hard work.

I have lived in Towcester since March 2004 ,previous to child minding. I worked in the travel industry from the age of 16 until having my daughter at 33, I thoroughly enjoy the work I do. My own children , I have a daughter 14 and 4 and a 6 year old son.

I like to offer that home from home child minding service.

I am flexible in my approach to working with your children, and I provide a safe and friendly environment for them to be in. I also enjoy getting out and about, and make use of child minding groups and local activities ,swimming , soft play areas , parks , toddler groups and many other sociable places..Lots of activities with links to the EYFS framework.

My Experience

As you can see with 3 children of my own I have personal experience of child care and many many children over the years have gone through my setting and they have been part of the family.

I have looked after a range of children of all ages, from 7 months up to 12 years old .I have had a lot of experience looking after children of all ages school time , before and after school , and school holiday cover., teacher training days and snow days.

I care for children from the hours of 0700 untill 1815 hours .

A few of the children I have have looked after from an early age and seen through to starting Nursery and school , and many after schoolers I have had through primary school to leaving to Senior school.

The children enjoy being in my care and we like to celebrate Birthdays and festivals throughout the year and events.

Having recently had my son go through intense speech therapy and language for a year at the local nursery ,I find I have good knowledge now in this area .I have also worked with a further nursery child in this area,

I have looked after children with Autism, ADHD. Asbergers and speech and language issues.

My Ofsted Inspections

Met

A recent inspection found strong relationships and a safe environment at this childcare setting. Children of all ages play well together in a relaxed and harmonious atmosphere. Parents appreciate the attention to detail and home-cooked meals provided. The childminder ensures up-to-date knowledge of safeguarding procedures and supervises children well. While seating arrangements during meals could be improved, children enjoy varied activities including outdoor play and creative tasks.
