About Me

I am a qualified and experienced level 3 Nursery Nurse with 20+ years experience in various types of childcare including a day nursery, a nursery pre - school aswell as managing an After School Club. Further more i have also had first hand experience of being a full time mum to my two sons which has enabled me to look at childcare from a parents perspective and helped me to understand how we as parents want to leave our children in the best possible care. Since completing my childcare diploma many years ago i have continued to work in childcare and during this time i have built fantastic working relationships with parents and children alike. After having my first son i decided it was the right time to start working towards becoming a registered childminder as i love working with children and it also fits in perfectly with my family life. I am registered by OFSTED and I strive to offer good quality childcare in a warm, friendly and loving environment. We attend various local playgroups and other groups within the community, we visit various parks, farms and playcentres. We enjoy going to 'Sign and Rhyme' music and movement sessions and gym tots. I run 2 groups alongside my Childminding network who have become good friends. The children benefit from this network as they become friends with children they see on a regular basis. At home i provide a wide variety of activities for the children to participate in including a variety of messy play and craft activities, baking, playdoh,water/sand play and also lots of free play with a good selection of toys and resources. We spend a lot of time outdoors exploring various parks and woodlands/forests. The care i offer will help your child grow in confidence and progress in all areas of their development. Please dont hesitate to contact me for vacancies available and more information. You should find my contact details on LCC website.
