My Summary

Scotland Care Inspectorate Registered

About Me

I live with my husband and two sons, aged 10 and 4. I have lived in Mintlaw all my life and know the area very well. I love where I stay and feel lucky to be able to bring up my own children in such a lovely area. My husband works in the Oil industry, my children both attend Mintlaw Primary School.

We live in a detached house and have a large living area with includes living room/playroom, dining room and a fully enclosed back garden which is awesome for outdoor play, games and eating out in. I offer a happy, safe and stimulating home environment for children agreed from 0 onwards.

We like to go on day trips to the local parks and playgrounds, visit local attractions and even further afield such as country parks, sea side etc.

SCMA Insured.

My Experience

I have 10 years experience with my own children and I truly believe that there is no better experience than bringing up your own children to be happy and confident individuals. Parenting is a daily learning experience and I bring all I have learnt and what I am constantly learning to the children in my care.

It is important to be continually looking at improving my service and keeping up to date with current practices and legislation.

Apart from my own two children, I have 6 minded children over the course of the week (and through school holidays). These children range from 12 months to 13 years. This variety enabled children to gain social skills with other ages and make new friends.

Sacha is a fab childminder. Nothing is too much bother. My kids aged 7 and 10 have been attending for nearly 1 year and always look forward to attending her setting. She doesn't feel like a childminder, more like extended family. Highly recommend!!!
