My Summary
Quality Care For Your Little Ones
About Me
I am an experienced childminder of 5 years, I have always worked within Children's education services in admin/secretarial roles, whilst I loved these roles I always preferred to have the interaction with the children in my establishment, therefore, I made the decision to change career and provide a childminding service. my mission statement is to provide an environment where the children in my care feel safe, valued and cared for at all times and will be encouraged to flourish and grow in all areas of their learning and development. I am a mom of 3 grown up boys and I fully understand the importance of finding the right childcare whilst your little ones are so young. I have a pet dog, Igsy, he has grown up alongside the children and is very calm, however, as an extra safety precaution he is always kept seperate to the children, he has his own area where he can see the children but is behind a safety gate in the house and a fence in the garden.
My Experience
I have vast experience and knowledge of caring for children under 5 whilst promoting progress in all areas of their development, I live in a large bungalow where the children have ample room to play and learn, I have a large garden where the children have lots of room to play and an outdoor learning environment. I work together with my husband and 2 assistants who are each experienced and knowledgeable with working with children under 5. I offer a caring, safe, fun, enabling environment dedicated to the happiness and development of the children in my care.

I’m so happy I chose Trudy to be my son’s childminder. He started just before age 2 and I’ve found he’s developing amazingly with them - his speech and motor skills are progressing so quickly. Most importantly though, he’s so happy there and has really blossomed in his personality. The whole team are fantastic and he talks about them all the time with the biggest grin on his face. He loves being around the other children, who are well-mannered and sweet, and a good influence on him. There’s a great range of activities for them to do, music time, story time, arts and crafts and seasonal activities. I’ve loved all the pieces of artwork he comes home with. I’m a full time student midwife so my schedule is all over the place but Trudy always tries her best to be flexible and facilitate my family’s needs. Thank you Trudy, Andy, Jess and Zoe for all your hard work ❤️

That’s a lovely review, thank you Amelia, we all love him to bits, funny little chap, he’s a blessing to my setting xx
All members of the team are great, I can highly recommend this setting, Trudy and her team did an amazing job with my little one. Setting is massive comparing to others that I've seen beforehand and has plenty of educational toys and things. It's also very clean. My boy was always happy to attend. Thank you guys for all you did for us ❤️

My LG started with Trudy beginning of January at 4 months old when I returned to work, I was so nervous leaving her at such a young but I needn’t of worried Trudy is such a lovely person and my LG is always full of smiles when I pick her up. She has settled really well and I know I made the right decision choosing a childminder over a nursery setting.
