About Me
Having needed and used childcare myself I understand how difficult it is to find the right care for your child and the anxiety a parent faces when handing over their child to someone else, but rest assured with me they will be in a safe and caring environment. I feel every child deserves to be safe, to be loved, to have friends to play with, to have fun and learn new things, to eat healthy food and to live a balanced life. Not only do I provide children with a great place to have fun, learn, and play, but I also focus on the importance of early education. I follow the EYFS curriculum and every child matter’s document, which includes 7 Prime areas of learning and development. Every child has their own early years book that documents their milestone development and learning goals and will inform parents about their child's daily events.
Every day, I dedicate time for reading, circle time, and bucket therapy with children, which helps to build a child's listening, attention and eye contact skills along with social and emotional development. We have fun and learn daily.
My Experience
I have 15 years of experiences working with children and have worked with children from 3 months to 12 years. I started working in local schools as early years assistant before becoming a preschool practitioner as well as a keyworker and further progressing to work as a deputy manager. I also run a baby and toddler group in a local church.

Shalom is very professional and excellent with kids. She took care of our son during the holiday and he was so happy that he was even nagging us to go there even when he was not supposed to. We saw great improvement in our son during the time that he spent with her and she updates us about their activities throughout the day.
My twins has been with Swati from a very young age and they had absolutely loved being looked after her.she care incredibly for my twins from the moment we met her, she put us at ease with her kind and professional manner. she have provided a very caring, supportive and fun home from home environment to our twin’s.Her communication has always been excellent with both children and parents. Children have a wide variety of activities during the day including plenty of time outside and the food she provides is very healthy. If we weren’t moving away then we would definitely be continuing with Swati.Thank you very much for looking after my twin’s
My daughter went to BusyBees and she had spent wonderful time there. She is very accommodating unlike other childminder as i had bad experiences with others before. Loved receiving regular updates from her regarding what my child is doing. Highly recommend her.
