My Summary
About Me
I am a very experienced Childminder and Early Years Teacher. I work together with my husband Martin. We have four children of our own from ages 16 to 30. We have dogs, cats and guinea pigs in our setting. We feel that animals offer a great deal to young children. We try to offer the children interesting and exciting play opportunities in all areas of learning, with a mix of child led and adult led activities. We love to learn outside, we have a garden and we enjoy going on outings with the children. We have built strong relationships with our current families and we look forward to your family joining ours.
