My Summary
Before And After School Ofsted Childminder
About Me
Hi,
I'm Melanie and have been an Ofsted registered childminder for over 9 years, specialising in before and after school childcare. I take and collect children from local primary schools everyday and my setting is at home . I offer a home-from-home nurturing environment where the children play safely & happily together in a relaxed family environment.
I am proud to say that I have families who stay with me for many years, often from pre-school right through to starting Secondary school. I love looking after them and they make long lasting friendships with one another too.
Parents are welcome to drop off from 7am and collect by 6pm (extended hours negotiable). My local schools are Goldsworth Primary, Kingfield Primary, Freemantles, Barnsbury Primary & The Hermitage.
I have two lovely boys of my own, who are 13 & 16 and very used to living with other children. We live in Mayford village, along a quiet country lane and have a large garden, stocked with play things, so there's plenty of healthy outdoor time as well as indoor space dedicated for the children to play freely and enjoy quiet time reading or crafting/drawing. We also spend time in the fresh air after school at one of the many local parks before heading home each day.
I am Fully Covid Vaccinated.

Mel provides such a lovely, enriching, home-from-home environment for the children.
They get lots of active time with playground trips after school, football in the garden and lots of bouncing on the trampoline.
Mel’s really great at keeping the parents updated & helped us with additional sessions when she had space. When my daughter first started, she also sent updates that she was settling in well, which was really reassuring and helpful during the transition.
