My Summary
About Me
Hello. I have been an Ofsted Registered Childminder for over 30 years so have lots of experience with children of all ages.
I have two grown up sons who have both left home & I am also a nana to a 7 year old, a 3 year old & a little baby boy who has just turned 1.
I work with an assistant Debbie. She has worked with me for 12 years now. We enjoy our mornings out and about at toddler groups, stay and plays or parks going further afield in the school holidays ie farms. We are out every morning then in the afternoons we have quiet time if needed, arts and crafts, story and music time and free play.
I absolute love my job caring for children and watching them grow and encouraging them to learn new skills.
I have a NVQ 3 in Child Care, Learning and Development. I have training in Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding and lots lots more.
I live in Forestdale, Selsdon

Below are the latest reviews for Lisas Childminding. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk.

As new parents to a 8 month old we were very unsure what type of care we wanted for our son when we were looking.
We began with placing our son at Nursery 3 days a week and with Lisa 2 days a week to explore both options and potentially use both options.
It became very apparent to us very early on that the close attention, care and level of activities provided to our son in Lisa's care far outweighed those he recieved at nursery.
The actual fact he started nursery before childminders and was still crying going into nursery until his last day but stopped at childminders after 2 weeks was a clear indicator.
Our son is now 14 months and in Lisa's fulltime care. He has gone from strength to strength in his development, child interaction and is always involved in plenty activities, with a detailed daily diary that as new parents we found very reassuring.
We can't thank Lisa enough for the care and environment that all the kids are provided with.
