My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Audra. I have been Ofsted registered childminder in the Borough of Bromley for over 10 years.
I am 47 years young, and my son aged 17.
We live in a lovely road, very close to Grove Park train station (10 min walk), and to all major bus routes.
I am excited to offer a warm, playful and safe home. I love working with children and enjoy seeing them shine and grow. My aim is to provide stimulating, positive and nurturing environment, where children can thrive and become independent unique individuals. I plan a variety of activities that are fun and also helps to extend children learning and development.
My home has a dedicated playroom and large outdoor space. I have local parks, woods nearby for outing. Children regularly get to do crafts and messy play activities. We also visit the local library, children playgroups and sing and rime time weekly.
I registered with Bromley Early Year and I accepting funded 15 or 30 hours.
Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Audra. 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.
Audra has an amazing setting with plenty of toys and books (for all ages). Her house is a warm and cozy place with a secure child friendly garden where the children have access over the summer. She also organises outdoor pool activity time where children can splash all together.
Also, she has got the best trampoline ever seen.
During winter time, she takes childrens to playgrounds and children centres, group activities or simply buzzing around the proximity of her house experiencing nature.
Moreover, my son who is 2 years old, comes back home happy with so many beautiful art creations, she makes very nice food too.
Audra is very trustworthy and reliable, and I could not ask for more from a childminder.

My daughter Angela has been with Audra since Sep 2021, when she was 10-month old. I was really anxious initially as all mums might think if my baby would be happy. Fortunately, Angela got used to it in less than four days, and she absolutely loves Audra, Monica and all the friends she made there.
The days are structured brilliantly so that kids can almost always go out to parks or playgroups in the morning, go back for lunch and nap, enjoy afternoon playtime. I followed this routine during the Xmas break myself, and it worked super well, too.
There are various pedagogies out there for early year education. But I believe the most important thing is to care for kids with a lot of love which Audra definitely does.
It’s so fantastic to see Angela has had a great day each time I pick her up. Sometimes kids even want to stay more! Don’t worry, even if he/she is really young and cannot speak yet, you definitely can tell if they are happy or not during the day.
It’s so sad we have to leave because we need to relocate to Italy. I do hope we could find something similar in Rome even though I am sure it is not possible as childminder service is not popular and Angela will have to get used to a nursery. I’ve recommended Audra to all my neighbours, and you will definitely not regret it if you choose her.
P.S. you will receive pictures from time to time from Audra during the days, so you will know that your kids are having fun.

My son started with Audra when he was 9 months old & he's now 3.5yrs!
Audra is fun, caring, and very hard working. Her setting is brilliant & at collection time its always buzzing with happy smiley children laughing loudly.
My sons developing social skills are a credit to Audra.
Our kitchen is full of arts & crafts he makes whilst with her.
Most importantly, my son is extremely fond of Audra and the friends he's made at hers.
There have been occasions he hasn't wanted to leave because he's having so much fun!!
It will be a very sad day when he leaves childcare & moves on to school.

My DD has been going to Audra for over 2 yrs now, starting when she was about 18m. Audra has really encouraged her development, getting her to do a lot of lovely creative activities and games. She's helped ensure balanced meals, and has been especially considerate with making food vegetarian for my DD. She has a lot of experience in guiding very young children through key milestones - walking, talking, potty training etc - and also through early learning with phonics/numerics, arts and crafts for fine motor skills. She's maintained a lovely setting that caters to different age groups and my daughter has made some great friends she loves to meet everyday. With a large garden, the kids get plenty of safe outdoor play time when the weather is good. Audra also has great connections with local baby and toddler groups and is keen on encouraging physical activity with trips to playgrounds and parks. Over the last 2 yrs, she's been supporting us as parents with changes in routines, setting boundaries and building confidence in my strong-willed 3.5yo. My DD really looks forward to spending her days with Audra, so really pleased to have her on board.
