About Me

Im NNEB Qualified. Nannied for 18 years for private families, and we now have 3 children of our own. Twin girls who go to high school locally, and a little boy in yr 3 at primary. We live in a 3 bedroom semi detached in Clitheroe with our own spacious separate playroom and secure garden, with lots of resources, we have sand, water play mud kitchens, hoops, skipping ropes and larger garden equipment.

I attend playgroups and music groups,promoting lots of social and emotional development along with encouraging language and communication.
We enjoy going on outings to the local parks, farms and have the river Ribble on the door step, museums and aquariums are a real treat.
I love working and playing with children, nurturing and challenging their development, I take a real interest in their development and what each individual child needs to help them move forwards.

I enjoy cooking and have always cooked for my children and my charges using fresh food, meat vegetable and fruit. And made my own food for babies.

I will also provide snacks through the day, always served with milk, water/juices.

I have completed the relevant workshops, first aid, and safeguarding courses for me to be able to child-mind and for me to branch over into childminding in my own home. I have full and part time places available I am also available for nannying, which has great advantages to you and your children if that is something that interests you, also offer the flexibility of holiday cover, or events cover like weddings..

Im fun, bubbly, outgoing, creative, love paint, glitter and glue getting messy and being creative...and love the outdoors and fresh northern air!

My Experience

Good
13 May 2019
A recent inspection found that children are happy and settled in a welcoming, family-like environment. The childminder encourages independence and decision-making, skillfully supporting risk management. Engaging activities promote learning, though there's room for improvement in developing early mathematics skills. While safeguarding is effective, accessing targeted training could further enhance teaching skills. Strong partnerships with parents ensure effective information sharing.
