About Me

Thank you for looking at my profile, I aim to provide a safe and secure homely environment for your child/children. I will value and respect each and every child as an individual.

I will work closely in partnership with you as parents/ carers to meet the needs of your child/children. I will encourage Christian principles such as sharing, caring and loving each other. I also aim to promote a happy, warm and stimulating environment for each child so they can develop socially, mentally, emotionally and physically.

I will encourage your child/children to be confident, independent and to develop their self esteem. I will provide activities, play opportunities and first hand experiences which allows them to build on their natural curiosity as learners. I will encourage them to use their imagination and to ask questions. I will help your child/children to learn what is acceptable or right, or unacceptable or wrong. I will listen and value what they say.
