About Me

I am registed childminder living in Reigate.

I am married to Ritchie and we have two children, a 13 year old girl and a 10 year old.

We live in a four-bedroomed house with an enclosed back garden and a dedicated playroom. Both inside and outside are equipped with various toys and resources for all ages with these being regularly updated and added to.

I take my chosen occupation very seriously and try to take any steps which I feel will increase my effectiveness as a Registered Childminder and improve the service I provide. I have completed the Childminding Introduction programme (ChIP) and I am qualified in paediatric First Aid. I am always keen to update and refresh my knowledge through relevant training courses.

I will be following the EYFS framework to help children progress through their stages of development. Your child will be cared for in a home-like environment within a family atmosphere. They will receive individual attention whilst also enjoying interaction with children of various ages. I attend regular sessions at Toddler groups, soft play centers, and Rhyme time at the library. When we can, we spend as much time out of the house as possible, visiting places such as the park, National Trust sites and other places of interest (weather permitting!)

For the under-fives, I provide a daily diary which details events that have gone on throughout the day, food eaten, nappy changes etc. A 'Learning Journey' folder will be completed during their time here which will include photographic evidence of the fun and learning.

I can drop off and pick up from some local nurseries/playgroups - please contact me to discuss. I can also do before and after school care for children at Sandcross school.
