About Me

Hi,
I am a partner provider with North Lanarkshire Council and can provide 1140 hours for free funded childcare to eligible 2 year olds and to all 3 - 5 years old which may be split with local nurseries. I provide a safe environment where children can learn and develop through play in a home setting. I can also pick up from some local schools from 3pm - 5pm
I am registered with Social Care and Social Work Improvement Scotland (SCSWIS) and a member of Scottish Childminding Association. (SCMA)


I proudly received all 5's in both my inspections which is only one away from the maximum score, of which being a 6. My inspection can be read in the care Inspectorate website.

I am married to Drew and we have three grown up children, Craig, Gemma and Hayden.
We have two dogs called Buddie & Lexi who are very much part of our family.

We live in a rural area near Morningside, Wishaw and I have children attend from surrounding areas of Morningside, Allanton, Newmains, Carluke and Wishaw.


Thank you for taking the time to read my profile

Many Thanks

Elaine xx

My Experience

I have gained valuable experience, including, at present raising three children of my own and had over twenty years within the care industry. Eight of which have been at a senior level.

I am self motivated, enthusiastic, competent, trustworthy, reliable and honest. I strive to achieve a holistic and person centred approach and will work closely with parents/carers to maximise the children's development. I will ensure all children are treated fairly and equally and achieving personal outcomes.

I aim to ensure, through training, my knowledge is up to date and relevant to the service I provide.

I offer a childcare service with a more personal and flexible approach to assist with everyday family life. As well as providing a warm, friendly safe home environment with a family atmosphere I aim to provide regular and varied opportunities to make full use of the facilities within the local community. I strongly believe in developing children through lots of activity and play.

5 stars

Elaine is friendly, welcoming, caring and kind. She is extremely patient, reliable and trustworthy. My little one loved his time with Elaine and all the fun activities they got up to. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her.
