My Summary
About Me
Registered Childminder of 25 years, live with my partner and a cat.
I provide high quality, affordable childcare in a relaxed and caring home environment and have a vacancy available.
I take the children to local Children's Centres each week to socialise with other children and trips together, to learn about children's communities and environments, as well as having fun; these include, farms, parks, fruit/veg picking, fire station visits, cinema, bowling and the local library. The children join in with a variety of activites, including lots of crafts (painting, cutting/glueing, playdough, cooking) and follow themes and festivals throughout the year. I have a good sized play room with many toys, educational toys, role play, play kitchen & equipment, puzzles, as well as a garden with many outside bikes, and sand/water play. I am very close to the Bird Sanctuary, where I take the children to explore in all seasons.
I encourage the children to become more independent, which builds on their self-esteem and confidence, which helps their development improve further.
I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage framework, as well as Baby’sDays online to update children’s development, this is where I add the children’s individual photos, achievements and activities, which they have undertaken in my care; the parents can also access this, for their own child.

Julie has been absolutely fantastic looking after Annabelle over the last year or so and has been hugely instrumental in her development. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed herself and settled in exceedingly easy.
Annabelle’s social skills have improved massively through Julie taking her to various social groups and other outings and has learnt to interact well with other children and her peers, and through this seems to fit in well in any environment. She has enjoyed all her arts and crafts that she does with Julie. The seasonal elements that Julie does with the children are just so thoughtful and fantastic and it has certainly established Annabelle's creative flair!
I wholeheartedly recommend Julie as a childminder, and cannot thank her enough for all that she has done. I genuinely do not know what I would have done without her. She will be missed.

Julie is an absolute gem of a childminder. My daughter went to Julie when she was 1 until 3 when we sadly moved out of the area. If I could’ve picked Julie up and taken her with us when we moved I would have!
Julie is an amazing childminder, my daughter would be so excited to go to Julie, and would show me all the things she had done and places she had been and what she had got up to with Julie.
My daughter came on leaps and bounds while in Julie’s care and it’s all down to Julie!
Two years on from us moving we are still in touch and my daughter still talks about her and misses her - I honestly cannot recommend Julie enough!
Thank you for looking after R for me Julie!

Julie is amazing! She had to step in at the last minute as our circumstances changed. She is a super star.
Our son settled in quickly and couldn’t wait to go back and see Julie the following day. She has a large setting with a lovely playroom and lots of garden toys - he really enjoyed being there.
They did all sorts of arts and crafts and activities but the best bit were the trips; she took the children to the local bird sanctuary, a farm and for daily walks. Our son loved exploring and seeing the different kinds of trees, birds, animals and insects. Julie takes the children there in all the seasons of the year. Our son loves being outdoors so he was always excited to tell us what he had been up to that day.
Julie continued sending photos of our son’s activities via WhatsApp and sent a summary email at the end of the week of what he had been up to.
If our son wasn’t going to nursery (close to our work) then we would happily have kept him there. Definitely recommend!

This lady is the gem of the ocean! Julie is so professional and organised. My grandson absolutely adores her not once have I had tears at drop off not even on day 1!!
I work in a job where I needed a childminder who could on occasions be accommodating Julie has met my every need.

Thank you so much for your beautiful words Rosemary!
Much appreciated x
Julie has been having my son 2 days a week now since January 2017. I love her as does my 14 month old son.
Julie communicates well on all matters and is professional in her paperwork. Julie is very creative with the activities She leads at her home with my son. And the are very appropriate to what's going on that week etc... (Fab picture received for Chinese New Year and my valentines card made me cry it was so lovely). She also takes my son to various groups, which he now loves (he is a shy boy, so took him a while)
I am thrilled how well the arrangement is going. And couldn't wish for a better childminder.
He adores smokey (Julie's cat) who is ever so good with children and allows my son to play and stoke him (and even follow him around).
Can't recommend Julie enough.
