My Summary
About Me
I work from my own home which I share with my husband and teen daughter. We have 2 family dogs and a hamster which the children can have contact with. I collect from Gillas Lane School and nursery. I have access to toddler groups within the local area as well as local play parks close by. I don't drive so am unable to offer much of a collection service but if i am able to walk it I would be willing to consider picking up or dropping children at home. I offer a wide range of activities for the children and try to adapt these to the children's likes, current interests and specific needs.
