Hello,

I’m Grace and I’m an approachable and friendly childminder with over 7 years experience. I have 2 daughters, Ivy and Betsy (aged 10 & 12) and we live with my husband Shane in Elm Park (RM12). I am very close to Elm Park train station.

I have a great passion for the growth and development of children and provide fun activities as well as a warm, relaxed environment for those cold rainy days.

Choosing me as a childminder will be a real home from home experience for your child and I’m happy to support parents with their child's routines, needs and requirements.

I have Level 3 Paediatric First Aid and Safeguarding qualifications. I hold an up to date DBS. I have business insurance on my car that I use to transport the children and also hold public liability insurance.

I have recently gained my Level 3 Food and Hygiene qualification.

I’m able to accommodate drop offs/collections from Scargil infants/juniors schools.

I look forward to hearing from you.

My Experience

I have always been interested in working with children and I completed a course in Health and Social Care as well as undertaking placements in nurseries and infant schools. I also have 2 children of my own and have been around children all my life as I’m from a large family with 3 siblings.

I am very happy with Grace. It was really difficult for me to leave my daughter with a childminder as this was a first for me. I met Grace as a childminder assistant and she was just amazing. Grace built such a bond with my daughter i was left with know choice but to keep her with Grace when she became registered.

Grace often takes my daughter to playgroup which she just loves!
I have never been asked to provide food as Grace has all her meals planned and my daughter just loves them.

The best thing for me is knowing i can go to work and feel at ease that my daughter is happy and safe. The family environment is warm and welcoming.

I would highly recommend Grace.
