Welcome to Leah's Little'uns childminding services. I am an Ofsted registered childminder.
I understand that work commitments are hard so I will try and be as accommodating as I can when it comes to times.
I am open full time with the exception of 4 weeks holiday.
We are closed between 18th December to the 8th January inclusive. We are closed bank holidays.
**All meals are Home Cooked. I hold a level 2 in catering and food hygiene. I accommodate allergies and personal requirements. I do ensure the children receive a healthy varied diet.
**PLEASE NOTE : only lunches are provided.
I have a great variety of resources to support your child’s learning. Both Child led and adult initiated. For all children in the early years I follow the EYFS guidelines. Outdoor play is available all years round. The more puddles the better! I provide structured activities throughout the day and for wrap around school care. This include messy play, arts and crafts, an extremely large selection of toys that are rotated weekly, daily outings, parks, toddler groups, and libraries, the list is endless.
I do also understand that older children may have homework and I will happily support them with this. I am also aware that they do appreciate some down time after school where they can chill and relax!
I provide wrap around care for children based at Cheam Fields Primary School.
All the children in my care are recognised as individuals and I thrive to ensure that their needs are met. I make a point of being able to work closely with parents to support both the child with any problems and the family. Each full time child will have a learning journey file showing evidence of their progress and achievements.
I have a full clean driving license and provide suitable car seats from birth upwards. I have buggies, highchairs and travel cots.
My Experience

Leah looked after my two four year olds and my one year old for my first year back to work. Leah always had such a fun setting and my three were always excited to see what she had set up for the week! Leah really helped us at a time where we needed it the most! We are so grateful for what she done for our littles while she had them!

Leah has took care of our 4 years old boy before his start in school and he loved it! Always doing something interesting. She is well organised and give a yearly plan, and send loads of pictures which is always reassuring. We have now send out 1y.o daughter too and she adapted very well.
A very loving and caring childminder that we absolutely recommend.

Our little boy had the most wonderful time with Leah and only left as I moved jobs. If we could have stayed, we would! Leah instantly made our little boy feel welcome and was very accommodating. She kept us up to date with pictures each day and he still talks about her now and all the friends he made. Would definitely recommend!! Thank you Leah xx

We still miss our little animal lover!!
My daughter loved going to Leah's. She still talks about it now over 2 years later of the lovely memories she made there. She was happy to go and always enjoyed her time there. Highly recommend to anyone wanting someone kind and caring and makes the parents feel like they can ask questions and sends you pictures too.

My grandson has been with Leah for nearly two years. He had a rocky start in life and when he first went to Leah he was anxious and unsettled. He has changed into a happy, engaged three year old. Leah has played a major part in his development. Her home is a welcoming environment where children can thrive (ably assisted by her lovely assistant Phoebe). There is always lots learning and fun going on.
Leah has an enormous set of child caring skills, but most of all she is loving, caring, but firm, with all her children. I shall miss picking my grandson up when he has to move on.
