About Me

I would love to be part of your family, because when your child come into my care he/she will be part of my family too. In addition,
My daughter has also just become a nursery teacher, she is early years level 5 qualified, and I am level 3 in home base childcare. furthermore, I have a lot of experience with children who have English as an additional language.
Me and my family love to have a house full of life, I cannot wait to add more wonderful children and their families to our big family.
My Experience
I work with children of all ages youngest being 7 months to 12 years old. I’ve been working with children from around 13 years now, it started out as a favor for a friend, then I decided I would really enjoy looking after more children so I got my qualification with PACEY. I am also very involved in helping out at the local playgroups and at the local school.
I am really good to understand children with English as additional language as I am Italian and understand French and Spanish.

Our journey with Elena started when Emily was 1y10months until she started nursery. She had never been in a childminding setting or nursery prior to that and so as any parent, you worry and want the best for your child. I'm very please to say Elena has been such a good childminder. She provides lots of activities both in her house and outside, play dates and outings. She is very experienced, has a natural talent and empathy with children which helps deal with their big emotions. Emily often asks about Elena and whenever we can, we stop at our local playground to say hello and share a hug.
