My Summary
About Me
I have been childminding since 2001. It's a great fun challenging vocation. Everyday is different and we have such a great time. We spend a lot of time outdoors , I love the outdoor and we visit on a daily basis the wooded areas around where I live. Our favourite being the Deep Dark Wood where we become explorers and maybe find a Gruffalo! We visit the community farm regularly where we can get up close with the animals.. I offer home from home care with free flow play... I recently took a drastic step and reduced the amount of plastic toys and the children I look after play with boxes saucepans and treasure baskets and things we find while we are outside.
I am an ofsted registered childminder reference number EY224615
My Experience
Mum to three children all of whom are now grown up so I have a wide range of age related experience.
I have chaperoned a wide range of children age range 7-20
I have worked with many different and diverse families and children. We have been on the journey together and I try to stay in contact with all the children I have cared for it's always a wrench when someone moves on.
I have experience of all age ranges , the youngest child I have minded was 3 months ...and the oldest was 12.
Children are unique individuals and in my settling I get to know your child really well and can offer the personal touch .
