My Summary
About Me
I have a wealth of knowledge and experience to provide great childcare services. I have worked with children with different age groups almost 20 years now. I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder in Rochester, 5minute walk away from a Priestfield Park.
I live with my partner and we have two sons (6y and 11y). We also have few pets: an old sleepy cat and fishes.
I offer a good size indoor setting and a large garden area where children have plenty of opportunities to explore, play and learn.
I believe children learn best through play and through experiences. Providing resources and opportunities to fit around the child's needs and interests in a loving, positive and encouraging environment, is essential for them to learn, grow and thrive. I work closely with parents to understand theirs and their children's needs to provide the best possible care, as each family is unique.
I use EYFS as a guide to make sure I provide opportunities for children to thrive in all the areas of learning and development.
My last Ofsted inspection was 20th of June 2024. I got GOOD in all the areas.
My Experience
I have over 20 years of experience in childcare and working with children of different age groups from birth to 12 years old.
My childcare journey started off as being an au-pair and a nanny. Then I became a pre-school practitioner/early years educator and now i am a childminder.
I have been Ofsted registered Childminder since January 2022.
The years I worked at a pre-school I gained a lot of knowledge and skills through everyday practice and through the courses I attended.
I gained my FAQ Level 3 Diploma in Early Years Education and Childcare (Early Years Educator) at the beginning of 2021.
But of course I would say that my greatest experience (and achievement) comes from being a mother to my children.

Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Evely. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Evely immediately stood out to me when we were looking for childminders as a very caring and nurturing person. Evely was very transparent and communicative about her policies and procedures that must be followed and was diligent in making sure I had completed all necessary paperwork before my child started.
Since my child started with Evely in 2023 his development and progression has been supported no end by Evely. Evely will always make sure to give us thorough updates regarding my child’s day and she really has the most wonderful relationship with him. We have never had one tear on my child leaving me to go to Evely (which is saying something as usually he doesn’t want to leave my side).
He has learned a great deal from Evely and I know that his days are filled with so much fun and so many learning opportunities!
I feel my son is completely safe and well cared for by Evely. It is a huge decision to leave your child in the care of someone else but I feel so confident that when I leave my child I am leaving him with someone who will always make sure his needs are met.
I can’t thank Evely enough for the care she gives to my child she really is amazing.

Thank youuuuu 😊 xxx
Evely has been my son's childminder and occasional babysitter since January 2022. During his time with her, he has shown great improvement in all areas, has learned socialising and expressing his skills, improved his speech and became best friends with Evely's son (they are close in age). My son is 3 years old. Evely provides a safe, warm, inclusive environment where learning happens through play, both individual and team play. I highly recommend her!!! She has been an important part of my son's life for the past 10 months and I hope will continue to be so until school starts next year. To be clear, even though my son attends full time preschool now, we have chosen to have 1 day of the week when he goes to Evely, as she is a factor of consistent development and joy for him and he never wants to come home after a day at Evely's. 🙂
