About Me
Hello, Im Mimi. Thank you for checking out my page!
I am a mummy of two lovely little boys, and live with them, my husband and our 4 year old cocker spaniel Dee Dee in Ferndown, East Dorset.
I qualified as a nurse 10 years ago and have experience in both the adult and child health field.
My most recent job was as a children in care nurse, working with our most complex and vulnerable young people.
I am also a self taught digital illustrator and make my own resources, games and activities. I will individually adapt these to every child I care for depending on unique interests, development and learning needs. Examples of this ( that children have already enjoyed at Mimi&me) include:
Road safety. A role play session has been provided to a child who needed more support with using the roads safely.
Bullying. Anti bullying puzzles and stories created and used during circle time to understand the importance of being kind.
Animal hospital role play, to learn about caring for animals and being safe around unknown pets.
Sharing and taking turns workshops and activities.
Brief updates and photos will be sent throughout the day, with a more thorough update once the day is over, to help you as parents feel as involved and reassured as possible.
Individual care plans and termly reports available.
One very integral part of my service is the nurture. It is a very worrying time to find someone who can give your child love and attention as much as you can.
At Mimi&me, children thrive in a caring and loving environment, with lots of praise, encouragement and cuddles aplenty!
I understand how difficult and overwhelming it can be to even think about leaving your child with someone else- I promise you are not alone!
Contact me if you would like to pop In for a chat and see what I can help you with.
Looking forward to meeting you and welcoming your wonderful little ones into the mimi&me household

Mimi has exceeded our expectations! I felt so comfortable from the start when communicating with her. I needed afternoon into the evening care for my boys who are 4 years old & 6 month old.
She arrived on time at our Airbnb with her sensory box which was a massive hit with lots to explore and chat about. We chatted about our plans for the evening and showed Mimi where everything is located. Mimi has a wonderful warmth and kindness about her that make us feel at ease, the boys took to her straight away and my oldest boy has been asking when can we see Mimi again. :)
