My Summary
12 Years Ofsted Reg, Methley Primary Childcare
About Me
My name is Sarah Handforth, I have been a registered childminder with Ofsted since Feb 2013 (I have a 12 year old son and 2 daughters aged 8&6. I’ve recently had an Ofsted inspection and got graded Good. Our home is welcoming and friendly for children of all ages, with a playroom dedicated to children, full of toys, games and equipment allowing them to join in with activities and play to their hearts content in a safe environment, or maybe just watch a movie getting comfy on the sofa. We have arts and crafts out daily at the kitchen table for after school entertainment. I provide breakfast of cereals, pancakes, toast, crumpets etc and full home cooked tea after school. We have a fully enclosed garden for playing. I am currently only taking on places for wrap around care at Methley primary school. I aim to make all children feel like they are in their home from home environment and look forward to coming back everyday. I also provide school holiday childcare. Please contact me with any questions or enquiries? x
