About Me

I'm a registered childminder from Sapcote, and I live with my husband, 9 year old son and two friendly cats.

I offer childcare for children from birth to 5 years in a spacious four bedroom house with dedicated indoor and outdoor play spaces. I provide a home from home experience in a calm and friendly environment which is welcoming, safe and secure.

Children can access a range of opportunities tailored to their individual interests, abilities and needs. I provide lots of opportunities for outdoor play in our large garden, as well as getting out and about in the village. We live next to a large field which leads to a wildflower meadow and allotments, so there are plenty of opportunities to connect with nature. We also visit local parks, Libraries and playgroups regularly.

My Experience

I'm a highly creative person with a background in Art & Design, and I enjoyed leading creative workshops for children alongside studying for my degree in my younger years. I love the creative possibilities in the Early Years and believe that a process over product approach is important, so that children can truly express their creativity. I have enjoyed being a full-time mum to my 9 year old son which has provided me with years of experience. I have also worked at a preschool as well as a local primary school as a Learning Support Assistant where I supported children with SEND. I have also worked with children as a volunteer at local clubs and Victim Support in the past.
