About Me
THE PLAYHOUSE CHILDCARE WARRINGTON
Hi my name is Beckie, I live in Warrington. I live with my three children and Bob the Bichon.
I have worked in childcare for over 33 years, working as a Nursery Nurse and working my way upto Nursery Manager. I left after having my third child, as i felt i could provide excellent childcare in a home from home environment, drawing on my knowledge and experiences. It is from this point I decided to set up 'The Playhouse Childcare'.
My sister is also registered as a Childminder and we work together to bring the EYFS to your children in a fun and stimulating way. Although based in two settings we very much work together as a team, planning and implementing ideas between us. We go on various outings together allowing your child to mix with other children and make new friends that they will see on a regular bases. We also visit various 'Tots' groups, parks, play areas and we attend Nature Club every Tuesday, where we nurture meaningful experiences as we explore our outside areas. We enjoy hands on experiences in a natural environment as well as making journey sticks, nature stars, discover wildlife, read stories and have snack together.
I have undertaken further visits and inspections from Warrington Borough council and I am accredited and able to offer the two, three and four year old funding.
I am fully registered with Ofsted and i am fully insured with MM and also have public liability insurance.
My Experience
I have worked in various settings over the past twenty seven years. I have worked with children aged from 0-11 years old. I have experience of Autism, Downs Syndrome, Cystic Fybrosis, speech delay/impediment, hearing loss and behaviour issues. I have also worked with children who are from other nationalities and cultures and who have english as their second language.
I have also had my own set of twins and i completely understand how full on two little ones can be however i wouldnt have it any other way!
My Qualifications
I have my NNEB which was a full time, two year course, as well as my HNC Level 5 in Advanced Practice in Working with Children and Families, which was a two year part time course.
I have also gained:
Paediatric First Aid
Food Hygeine
Safeguarding Children
Behaviour Management
There is a full list of courses i have attended, that can be viewed on a visit to 'The playhouse'.

My baby girl - O, was with Beckie from 8 months old. During this time O suffered numerous health issues and whilst all this was going on Beckie was helpful and caring and did what she could to make life for us easier, even putting careplans into place to put me at ease. O absolutely loved going to Beckies house and would be full of smiles and laughter and would be the same when I picked her up.
Beckie is caring and compassionate and builds a forever relationship with the children.
I would absolutely recommend Beckie to anyone!

My daughter was with Beckie from aged 9 months to her starting primary school. Beckie promised to deliver a home from home setting and she delivered more than I could ever dream of!
My daughter progressed and developed well above the average for her age group with Beckie through interactive and fun learning she smashed all of her milestones.
My daughter had complex allergies and some safeguarding needs and Beckie supported us every step of the way. I honestly never had to worry or think for a second “is she okay?”. She cares for the children in her care like they are her own family and goes above and beyond!
When the day came for her next adventure we were all devastated that our journey had come to an end. We started as customers but left as friends - I honestly can’t recommend her enough!

My little boy - O, has been with Beckie since he was 9 months old. Over the past 3 years she has built an amazing relationship with him and us aswell. Beckie is flexible and will change days or have him for extra days if she can.
O has progressed into a confident, smart, pleasant little boy and I know this is because of Beckie. They have such an incredible bond. He always runs in and comes home smiling and wiped out from a busy day.
I honestly wouldn't trust anyone else to care for him whilst I work. Beckie ensures the care she delivers to the children is to the higest standard and has helped me out so much with any issues I have had.
I have always and will always recommend Beckie to anyone seeking childcare as she is the most caring, thoughtful and attentive person I have ever met.

Beckie has been looking after my little boy Alfie since he was 10 months old, she is brilliant with him and he loves going. She is has a caring nature and Alfie warmed to her straight away which made me feel better about leaving him, there is nothing better than going to work knowing that your little boy is going to be well looked after and cared for by someone who is so lovely. She is very reliable and her home is a safe environment for children to be in, it is like a home from home where any child would benefit from her care attention and love.
I would 100% recommend Beckie, she is genuinely a lovely lady with an equally lovely family and any child would benefits from being in her care. We will truly miss her.
