About Me

CIW registered childminder with experience from new born up to young adults.
My setting is a very much a home from home childcare setting with all the home comforts which is welcoming, inviting and fun to each and every child where they are able to play freely with a range of toys and resources suitable to their age and development with my full supervision, they will have opportunities each day to take part in a range of fun activities with me throughout the day including baking, singing and dancing, arts and crafts and making lots of lovely memories all which will support their learning in a fun way!
We also explore the great outdoors going on walks, puddle hunts, visiting play areas, farms, visiting baby and toddler groups or play centres where they can interact with other children outside of my setting.

I am 100% committed to the service i provide to parents and their children, being a parent myself i know how important it is for you to feel confident and happy with the childcare service you choose, all parents which are interested in a placement are offered an appointment to come and meet me and discuss your requirements.
