About Me

I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder based in Wantage. I am married with 3 children. I aim to provide excellent care in a safe, friendly and stimulating environment. I collect from Wantage Church of England nursery and primary school.

My Experience

I have the most up to date training on the Early Years Foundation Stage and have undergone food hygiene, safeguarding children and a pediatric first aid course. I find it very rewarding working with the children to achieve new things and seeing the sense of pride on their faces when they manage to do this. I am currently graded Good with Ofsted.

My Qualifications

Registration Course covering the Early Years Foundation Stages
Pediatric First Aid
Food Hygiene Level 2
Safeguarding Children

I have also completed a number of further courses regarding child development. Certificates are available on request.

Quality service

5 stars

My 5 year old daughter has been going to Kerry's for around three months now. I cannot stress enough how pleased I am with the service Kerry provides. As I'm sure you will all agree searching for the right person to look after your child can be a arduous task.
There are many qualities a child minder needs to possess if they are to provide a high standard of quality care. To name a few, kindness, safety conscious, patients, reliability and of course it goes without saying....a sense of humour. Kerry has all the above qualities and more.
My daughter thoroughly enjoys going to spend time with (not only Kerry) but her entire family. In all honesty I have a job to get her to leave at the end of the day.
Jess often comes home with things she's painted or tells me about books she's been reading. Kerry frequently invites me in for a coffee and a catch up.
Above all Jess is happy and that makes me happy. I can go to work knowing full well she is in safe hands. I would recommend Kerry's services as a child minder to anyone, I am also more than happy to reiterate this if needs be. I have suggested to Kerry she pass on my contact details if anyone would like further confirmation of the quality service Kerry provides.
