About Me

I am a mother of three childrens, moved recently in Leighton Buzzard. Looking forward to restarting my childminding from January. Everyone welcome.
I started my childminding after I had my first son aiming to be around him and also offering others a cosy and welcoming environment, where they can have a good start in education.
I have a Romanian background but a very good level of English as my second language.
In my setting we embrace all religions, backgrounds and any dietary requests.

My Experience

I have 12 years of experience as a nursery teacher and nursery nurse back in Romania.
And also have 13 years experience in Childminding in UK.

My Qualifications

Level 3 and Level 5 in Childcare
Barnet Certificate in Childminding
Level 2 in Autism
Level 2 in Food Hygiene
Level 2 in Safeguarding
Paediatric First Aid
CPD update in Early Years

My Availability

My setting is open almost the whole year. I usually notify parents with more then 30 working days of my holidays.
I operate Monday to Friday between 8:00 am to 18:00pm, with flexibility.

A comprehensive approach to childcare focuses on safety, nutrition, and school readiness. Robust risk assessments ensure a safe environment, while freshly made, home-cooked meals promote healthy eating habits. The childminder demonstrates a good understanding of child development, emphasizing language skills and preparation for school. Experience in caring for children with diverse needs, including those speaking English as an additional language, highlights an inclusive approach to early years education.
