My Summary
About Me
My name is Gbemi Williams. I live in the Belvedere area and married with 2 kids. After having my second child, I decided to spend more quality time with my family whilst offering the same service to others.
I offer a warm, safe, secure and stimulating environment for your little ones to learn and grow with excellent indoor and garden to wonder and explore. I have over 30 sq m play area. All toys, books and resources which the children can access, are all age appropriate.
I live in a quiet cul de sac, with a private park. I am close to Belvedere station, about a 10 minute walk. I also live near Belvedere beach Park where we go for walks. We also visit other parks, other childminder settings. I hold a full clean drivers licence and drive a 7 seater which the children love. I have a smoke free setting and I have no pets.
INSPECTED, OFSTED REGISTERED & POLICE CHECKED
My Experience
I previously worked as a consultant, creating pharmaceutical solutions. I had to be super-efficient; dedicated and willing to go the extra mile. I had to prioritize and plan for a hectic day but be flexible and adaptable; be able to multi-task and deal with stressful situations all whilst keeping calm and smiling.
The best experience is of being a mother of two children (boy and girl), this has given me the best experience regarding the welfare and learning requirements of children. I appreciate the uniqueness in each child and this has challenged me to become more open and supportive. My constant training also allows me to expand my knowledge and update myself on better procedures and working practices.
Teacher/tutor of Mathematics and Sciences for Home Educated children, with a love and passion for the subject. My background is science with BSc and PhD in Pharmaceutics (drug formulation). I offer ks1 & ks2 (morning) sessions for home ed children, and 1-2-1s for after schoolers. Learning is more self lead to tailor teaching specifically to each student individual needs. I have managed to inspire my students and help them attain high marks in their GCSE and SATs Exam.
Subjects for ks1 & ks2 includes maths, english, science, and life skills

HadleyGd has been an amazing childminder ! She offers an excellent childminding service towards my daughter, i have never for once regretted registering my daughter with her... Her home is simply home away from home and my daughter always look forward to seeing her childminder everyday.
Looking forward to registering more kids with you😊😊

Overall
Gbemi is a caring and professional childminder with a good manner with all the children in her care.
Her setting is safe for small children, spacious and luminous. She provides an excellent environment in terms of children’s learning (numeracy, reading, singing…). She keeps me informed on how my child is doing, what he has done and what he has eaten. Also, as a mother of two children and a highly educated person, Gbemi is ready to share her own experience and to give good advice. And the most important, my child is happy there.
As a parent, I am very happy to have found Gbemi as a childminder and would highly recommend her childcare service to others.

Initially when I was deciding what to do with the girls whiles I go and study. I considered putting them in a nursery rather than take them to a childminder. When I came across Gbemi, I felt at ease from the beginning as she has such a warm presence and her house is very clean and so beautiful. She reassured me from the beginning and she is very thorough.
My children are always looking forward to going to her house and they are very happy. I have seen a great improvement in my daughters speech and learning. She keeps us informed on how the children are doing, what they have eaten and what their interest are so that we can carry it on at home. She works alongside you as a parent to ensure that your child is achieving each developmental stage. She is fantastic, caring, creates a fun and safe environment in which the children can thrive in. I will highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for childcare for their child/ren, you will not be disappointed.

I was looking for an ad-hoc childcare for my daughter who's nearly 2 to cover when my usual childminders on holiday.
Gbemi made us feel welcome in her beautiful clean home she's very organised and responsible childminder, provides health food for the kids.
It was a bit of a shock for my daughter when i left her for first time. She doesn't take well to change but Gbemi was very patient with her gave her lots of cuddles and helped her to settle. She kept me updated throughout the day on how she was doing. I was pleased to see my daughter playing in her garden and even more pleased when she slept for 2hr on her first day.
I will definitely be using Gbemi again. If you are looking Childminder I highly recommend Gbemi.
