About Me

I have been an Ofsted Registered Child minder since October, 2003. I live on Linden Road in Bournville, Birmingham with my family and our small, well-behaved, friendly dog who is very good with both children and adults.

My home is a loving, fun, safe, and educational environment for children to spend their time playing, learning and socialising together. I also have a large, safe garden for the children to play and explore in.

My Experience

I have been an Ofsted Registered Child minder for over twenty years.

I enjoy caring for children and have had plenty of experience after having four Sons of my own and a Grand-daughter. During school holidays I take the children to local parks to explore and enjoy the freedom of space and the environment.

I regularly attend training, and do online courses as and when necessary to enhance my continuous professional development, and to keep me up to date with current legislation and requirements.

My Qualifications

I achieved the NVQ Level 3 in Children's Care, Learning and Development in March, 2009.

My Availability

I provide before and after school cover for Bournville Village Primary School on Linden Road, Bournville from Monday to Friday between the hours of 7.30 am and 5.30 pm. I also offer term time only contracts and school holiday cover, if required. I have some availability for before and after school and school holiday cover. Please contact me for further details.

A childminder in Birmingham demonstrates a strong commitment to safety and child development. Regular safeguarding training ensures up-to-date knowledge of abuse signs, including radical views. Comprehensive risk assessments cover the home, garden, and outings, with children taught about safety awareness. A tailored curriculum supports children's developmental milestones, with special consideration for those with SEND. Parental input is valued, with opportunities for discussions about children's achievements and interests.
