About Me

I run Nelly's Childcare based in Shiphay, Torquay close to Torbay hospital. I'm excited to be working towards my Curiosity Approach accreditation and have a beautiful setting to reflect my approach. We spend lots of time outdoors; painting in the woods, exploring the beaches and visiting local parks. I take the children on great adventures and we regularly go on trips to places such as Pennywell farm, the zoo and woodlands! Feel free to look me up on Facebook to see some of the lovely learning activities we do.

My Experience

I ran the toddler room in a nursery, have fostered over 30 children including those with special needs such as autism, global developmental delay and speech and language difficulties and I've worked assessing parent and child placements. I'm a mum myself to three beautiful, cheeky children of my own!

My Ofsted Inspections

The inspection grades below have been obtained from the Ofsted website based upon the registration number the childminder has provided to us. You should verify this information yourself prior to using the childminder.

Good

9 November 2022

An exciting and well-planned curriculum forms the foundation of this childminder's approach to early years education. Children enjoy a diverse range of activities, including outdoor trips and local library visits, which support language development. The childminder promotes equality and diversity, preparing children for life in modern Britain. While the overall quality of education is good, there are opportunities to improve by allowing children more time to respond in conversations and develop increased independence.
