About Me

Hello, I am a very enthusiastic Childminder, full of energy and creativity. I love working with children and helping them growing step by step!! I am a proud mum of a lovely 12 yo little girl and a 4 yo old little girl who will start school in September.
I am originally from Italy, but I've been in England for more than 5 years now.
My home is a very warming and full of love and fun for everyone! Everyday there are many activities going on and we will get out to explore as much as we can!
I have worked in a SEMH school for 4 years and alongside babysit for many families and that grew my desire to be a childminder.

My Experience

I have worked as teaching assistant in a school for kids with special needs (y6 to y11) and I loved every second spend with the kids. Alongside this I have babysit many families as well.

Children thrive in this engaging and inclusive childcare environment. The childminder tailors activities to each child's learning level, ensuring they acquire specific skills and knowledge. Community-based experiences and a focus on cultural diversity enhance children's development. Parents appreciate the frequent, varied communication about their child's progress. While excelling in many areas, there is room for improvement in partnering with other professionals to further support children's individual needs.

The Best Childminder Ever

5 stars

My little girl is with Erica since August 2024. Rebecca adores Erica. She made us comfortable since the first day we met her. Erica is a trustable person, precise, clean, funny, always ready to help parents. Erica updates every single thing every day. Rebecca has been learning loads of things with her thanks to the activities they do during the day. I knew it Erica was the right person since the first day. Thank you so much for all your hard work. I would leave not 5 stars but 100!!!

Mary Poppins in REAL LIFE!!!

5 stars

Erica is a warm, caring, fun and professional human. She has so much love for childminding / babysitting and generally looking after children.

I thought it may be difficult to have her own little person in the mix but THIS WAS THE BENEFIT!

She has shown; she truly treats my own two girls (age 2 &1) just as she treats her little one. They play so nicely, there’s so much adventure on every session with Erica, my girls always come home smiling and worn out in the best way!

We personally love to read the notes and see the videos/ pictures of their day. It has made such a difference especially being a highly anxious mummy!

Thank you for your HARD work, your care and professionalism, and for always making it feel an easy effort!
You are OUR real life Mary Poppins!

Thank you so much for the review! So kind of you.
It is a pleasure and so much fun to look after your little ones.

Warm, fun and highly reliable, strongly recommend!

5 stars

Erica provided nannying/babysitting services for our 6 months old baby boy, she created fantastic like for like home environment, her house was always baby friendly, clean and welcoming. She gave me the exact support I needed as a mum with shared pictures throughout the day and flexible days/time. Erica herself is a mum and has great, fun approach to children. Definitely recommend Erica to anyone looking for nanny or babysitter.
