About Me

Hi, as an Ofsted Registered Childminder it is my main aim to provide a safe, fun and stimulating home from home environment, where children can develop and be the best that they can be.

My Experience

I am a Ofsted registered Childminder. I have a TQUK Level 3 Diploma in Early Years and also a TQUK Level 2 in SEND. I am registered "Good in all areas". I have been childminding for nearly 8 years now; I love my "job" and wouldn't swap what I do for anything. I offer plenty of outdoor activities; including a specific made play area for little ones to run around and play in. My days may also include local trips out parks, play groups, soft play areas, library; plenty of walks in the fresh air, nature walks. I also offer larger trips to places like the zoo, cinema, celebration meals, panto etc. I also offer plenty of indoor activities too; I have the benefit of two designated play rooms designed specifically for the children, offering lots of great activities (lego, dressing up, puzzles, ball pit, train set, play kitchen and many many more). I work closely with parents to plan and structure the individual needs of the child.

A warm and nurturing environment awaits children, with outdoor learning and nature exploration taking center stage. The childminder creates a welcoming atmosphere, supporting communication skills and independence. There is a strong focus on outdoor experiences, including studying life cycles and caring for butterflies. While the curriculum is ambitious, there is room for improvement in using assessments to extend individual learning. Parents praise the stimulating activities provided.
