My Summary

My Experience

I started my childcare career child minding back in 1993 until 2005.

From 2005 I worked for North Yorkshire County Council Children and Young People's Service as a Childminding Support Officer to 2012.

My responsibilities where to work with existing and newly registered child minders.

I provided support, guidance and delivered training to develop good working practices and pre registrations sessions through the area.

The training covered :
Early Years Foundation Stage, Tracking Process of Children's Age and Stage of Development, Planning Long and Short Term, Observations and Assessments, Supporting Children's Learning, Dealing with Challenging Behaviour, Improving Outdoor Provision, Writing of Policies and Procedures, Risk Assessments, SENCO and Safeguarding, Food Hygiene, Equality and Diversity, Business Planning, HMRC Tax Self Assessments and How SEN cod of practice is put in place within your setting to name a but few.

I developed the North Yorkshire Network Childminder Scheme linking existing and newly registered child minder's together which was very successful.

Then developed a team of Network Childminders across the county who delivered 3 and 4 year funded placements, continuously assessing their practice for good high quality learning and care environments, meeting the needs of the children and parents.

I worked out of Children Centres, local community buildings, libraries and directly in the homes of childminder's.

I successfully lead other childminders to ensure they operated with the legal, regulatory ethical and social requirements, understanding policies and procedures, legislation's, data protection (confidentiality, safeguarding, quality of opportunity) by keeping up to date with best practice and legislation through Ofsted and other websites.

Then after re structure from 2012 until 2017 still working for North Yorkshire County Council 'Children and Young People's Service' I became a Family Outreach Worker on the Prevention Team.

This role was using all my skills, experiences and knowledge to effectively support children and young people in the home or within a setting of education from Pre School to Secondary School who have complex needs due to family circumstances and Behaviour, Anger Issues, Anxiety Problems, Self Harm, Hydrocephalus, Severe Hearing Impairment, Special Educational Needs, Autistic Spectrum Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Down Syndrome, Speech and Language Delay, Global Development Delay and needed my professional support on a 1-2-1 basis or within a group.

As you can see I do have a very wide practical and varied knowledge based understanding of how to support, identify and work together in a variety of ways incorporating different strategies to support each complex need of the child or young person in a positive manner with good outcomes for them and their families.

I am confident when working with a range of professionals ( Early years Advisory Teacher, Speech and Language Therapists, Educational Physiologist, Clinical Physiologist, Paediatric Consultants, Play Therapists, Portage, Autism Sensory Team, Disability Action Team) and organisations ( Child and Adult Mental Health Service, Children s' Social Care Team, Police, IDAS, Health Care Team)
I feel that I am able to build strong constructive relationships with professionals, families and the children themselves ensuring we share the responsibility to support and help solve the problems or issues together.
