About Me

I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder and have been since 2009. I love being a mum to my boys Mikey aged 17 and Eddie aged 13. I live with my husband John. I have my own car, and can do school runs etc. I am always out and about with visits to the zoo, messy clubs, toddler groups and have an enclosed garden for play and explore nature. I am a member of the Pacey (professional association for childcare and early years) and have a Diploma (unit 1) in homebased childcare.
I also hold a current Paediatric First Aid Certificate, have also completed several courses like the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) and Safeguarding children. I Absolutely Love Being A Mum. I will do my utmost when your child/ren are in my care. I used to send my son to a fantastic childminder, so I know how heart breaking it can be to leave them with someone whilst you go off to work but I can assure you that you will be leaving them in a fun, very friendly and family orientated environment.

Louise is amazing with my son, I was very nervous about leaving him and she completely put my mind at ease. He loves going to her house, smiling as soon as we get to the door. I love how relaxed the atmosphere is and how he is always happy at pick up. Would recommend to anyone.

Louise jumped in to save us after we had an awful Childminder experience previous to her. My son Lucas only got to be with her for about a month in a half but we always felt confident he was safe and having fun with Louise. Louise would keep a journal of his day, when he ate, etc. She was so flexible with us as I worked in retail. She even saved us to watch Lucas the morning I had my daughter! I wish I could snatch up Louise and take her to Colchester where I moved. I was so impressed and highly recommend her. She was truly wonderful with my Lucas. We miss you Louise!
