My Summary

My Experience

I have over 18 years experience of working in various schools/nurseries. I previously worked for the last 5 years as Family Support Worker, based in schools and a Designated Safeguarding Practitioner in child protection, in a school in Leeds.

I provide a stimulating learning environment for your children to learn, play and grow in. I have a lovely space for playing and learning. I live close to a small park and we regularly go on outings to play groups and places of interest such as farms, other parks & playgrounds, libraries, museums, and to other educational environments. Time spent in my setting for the children is balanced out at home from indoors or outdoors and to rest when needed.

I also have a child led setting which is constantly evolving to take into account every child we care for. Planning is done according to the interests of the child and is linked to the seven areas of learning from the EYFS framework. The needs of each individual family are me. I use teaching techniques such as, Montessori. We value empowerment and strong relationships which we believe develop free but morally responsible individuals with a high degree of social competence and creative ability. I nurture each child to the very best that they can be. Childminding in our setting is much more than a job, it’s a vocation, its something we love.
