My Summary
About Me
My name is Caroline, I live in Cowling with my partner, my 3 beautiful little girls Teagan, cyan and Talia. our 2 dogs called Digby and Bella and our cat called Oscar. I have grown up in Cowling and I believe that it is a lovely place for children. It is a quiet village surrounded in countryside. We live close to parks and local ammenities. We have a large back garden, drive and a front garden so outdoor play is easly accessible.
I also have a 7 seater car which is used for my childminding so trips to local farms and other parks and toddler groups are amongst the things that we do. I also do school runs to and from Cowling school.
I have always wanted to work with children and I decided that when I had a child of my own I would train to become a childminder. With this in mind I started looking into becoming a childminder in 2006, then when I gave birth to my daughter Teagan in December 2007 I knew that it was now my chance to become a childminder and fulfil my dream.
I feel very passionate about the care that I offer and I understand how difficult it is for parents to leave the most important and precious possession with someone else - their child.
I provide breakfast, (this is a choice of cereals with fruit, and a drink of either pure orange juice, apple juice or milk), morning snack is usually a variety of fruit or vegetables with
some thing like breadsticks, crackers, croissant, crumpet, Lunchtime is usually sandwiches or light snacks with a choice of different fruits or vegetables like carrot sticks, tomatoes and cucumber) followed by yoghurts and light puddings. The evening meal is a home made meal. All meals are home cooked from fresh produce and I do not add any salt or sugar to any of the meals.
