My Summary
About Me
My name is Claire, I live in Gillingham with my husband and our children. I am an OFSTED registered, recently rated ‘Good’ childminder and a qualified primary school teacher. I love working with and caring for children and I am passionate about providing them with exciting and enriching learning experiences.
My setting includes a dedicated playroom ideal for children under 5, a baby area and space for school aged children to complete homework or enjoy some quiet time after their day at school. I have a wide range of toys, resources and equipment suitable for all ages, which I use to support children’s learning and development.
I also appreciate the importance of children learning and playing outside and have a garden space dedicated to growing plants and produce as well as various outdoor toys and resources. Some of these include a slide, sports games, play house and mud kitchen.
I am able to offer various childcare including school holidays, before/after school and dependent on availability.
Please feel free to contact me to discuss your childcare needs.

Claire looked after my boys (6)&(8) for year and a half. She has a lovely setting and a lovely family and my boys adored them all.
Claire is kind, nurturing and very caring.
There was always an array of educational activities, healthy food and it really felt like a second home for my boys.
We would still be with Claire and her family if my work circumstances hadn’t changed. I definitely had to leave a review as she will be sorely missed!

Claire is a very warm, friendly, caring, approachable and accommodating person. I felt confident leaving my son in her care and he always returned home in great spirits, talking about the various activities that took place in Claire's setting. I would highly recommend Claire and her lovely setting.
Thank you for looking after my son.
