My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Debbie. I'm an OFSTED registered childminder with over 17 years experience, I have been rated good in all areas in my last inspection (March 2022). I am also a full-time mum, with 2 sons, Luke aged 24 and Ryan aged 21
My partner and I have a large spacious house on the Woodford, Highams Park & Chingford borders, which has a separate playroom and large garden. We are extremely close to the local park & forest, which is excellent for 'play time' for the children. Highams Park and Woodford rail and tube stations respectively, are nearby.
I offer a safe, clean, warm, home from home environment for play and learning as governed by the EYFS framework, with large indoor & outdoor space for the children in my care. I pride myself on treating the children in my care as if they were my own, where they are able to learn through play, to encourage the imagination and social skills.
I regularly visit the local parks, forest and play groups, along with the library for recreation time.

Debbie has looked after my daughter since last summer and has been absolutley wonderful! We are having to move child care due to my job being so far away and Debbie has been really understanding when picking my daughter up recently.
Her home is immaculate and her family have been very welcoming and loving towards my daughter - who will miss them very much! Debbie is very good at communicating with me about any worries about my daughter and even picked her up from my home when I was extremely ill and unable to leave the house. She has a fantastic garden and does lots of fun activities with the children in her care. My daughter loved being with Debbie and I highly recommend her! Thanks Debbie!

Thank you Katy.
It has been a pleasure looking after F, (HI YA) she will be sadly missed by all xx
Debbie is a fantastic childminder. Our 2 year old son started with her under the current strange COVID circumstances so we weren't able to go inside her house or be present for a settling in period. Debbie was really reassuring through this and very accommodating. Our son is on the autistic spectrum and can struggle to settle but Debbie was so good with his requirements and needs and he has been really happy with her. We have been able to see from the photos she has sent us of our son enjoying himself that she has a good selection of toys and activities and a clean and spacious house and garden. Definitely the best childminder we have had.
