My Summary
About Me
Hello!
Welcome to Mia’s childcare!
New funded spaces available starting in April 2025! Please contact for more details.
I have been childminding 13 years now, I started when my own daughter was 5 years old and realised I really enjoy giving children new opportunities to play and showing them what is around us; our local community, parks, forest walks, great outdoors for exploring, libraries and playgrounds, not forgetting to give them to chance to rest and feel safe.
We live in a child friendly house which is very close to Jesse Gray and that’s why I am able to offer pick ups and drops off from there. This has worked really well with the families with children from different age groups. Younger children love having older ones around and other way around!
Originally I am from Finland and my approach for childminding is very Scandinavian, loads of fresh air , exploring outdoors and having fun!
We have a lovely dog, called Oakley, who we got during lockdowns and he has grown up children around him. He has helped children overcome with their fears with dogs and has been very positive addition for my setting.
Please get in touch for more details!
I am accepting 9 months, 2, 3 and 4y old funding
My Experience
I thoroughly enjoy parenting our daughter who is now 17y and enjoyed looking after children last 12 years! I have experience of looking after twins and I can also be flexible with families who do shift work.
