My Summary
Childminder Swanley
About Me
Full and part time spaces available.
I live with my husband and two children, a 6 year old daughter and a 3 year old son. We also have two cats, Jessie and Sid.
I love seeing children learn new skills and try to nurture this at every opportunity.
I visit places and plan activities that interest the children and help them to learn.
We like to visit the park, farms, Rhyme Time and different playgroups including childminder only groups, so the children can socialise with different children and play and learn with different toys and in different environments.
I have a safe and child friendly house with a big living room/dining area space and provide a home from home atmosphere. I have a variety of toys to suit all ages, to enhance childrens learning, to help engage their imaginations and encourage playing and therefore happy children.
I also have a garden with mud kitchen, play house and sand and water tables.
I set up activities for the children each day, from messy fun to drawing and play dough activities with themes.
I am available to work Mondays-Thursdays.
My daughter attends Crockenhill Primary School and I will be available for before school and after school care.
I am set up with Tax free childcare and funding.

My son has been going to Michelle since he turned 1, and he loves going! He is so happy there and has developed so much. He talks about her all the time! Michelle provides a homely and caring environment, with lots of toys and developmental activities, does lots of different fun things with him outside the house, and gives him personalised attention while also making sure he is well socialised. He really enjoys spending time with the other children in her care. We have no concerns at all when he is with Michelle, and we can tell how much she cares about him, which is so lovely. I would highly recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a childminder.

Honestly feel so comfortable leaving my son with Michelle, being a stay at home mum with my eldest for so long I was very nervous leaving my youngest and going back to work so soon (early than expected). Michelle is very friendly, always has a smile on her face. Home from Home environment. Always doing new and exciting activities with my son. He is happy going in and coming out at the end of the day. My son is coming on leaps and bounds. Would highly recommend.
