My Summary

My Experience

With over 4 years of experience as a childminder, I have developed a deep understanding of the diverse needs of children and the importance of creating a nurturing and safe environment. I have had the privilege of working with children ranging from toddlers to pre-teens, helping them grow, learn, and develop in a fun and caring space.

During my time as a childminder, I’ve gained a wealth of practical experience in the following areas:
• Personalized Care: I tailor activities and routines to suit each child’s individual needs, ensuring they feel valued and understood. I am attentive to their social, emotional, and developmental milestones, helping them to thrive in all aspects of their growth.
• Educational Play: I incorporate play-based learning activities such as arts and crafts, reading, and puzzles, promoting cognitive, motor, and social skills. I believe in fostering creativity and curiosity in children through interactive play.
• Routine Management: From preparing healthy meals to handling bedtime routines, I am experienced in maintaining structure and consistency, which helps children feel secure and at ease.
• School Runs and Homework Assistance: I’ve managed school drop-offs and pickups, as well as assisted with homework and after-school activities. I ensure children remain engaged and supported in both their academic and personal growth.
• Safe and Supportive Environment: I am committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of all children in my care, whether at home or during outdoor play. I am trained in first aid and have a DBS check to provide extra peace of mind to parents.
