Hi I'm Tracy,I'm a ofsted registered Childminder.I live in mill hill .We are called "Jigsaw Day Care". After over 30 years of being a nanny, supervisor in nursery's and playgroups and at present a Deputy Manager and early years foundation stage manager at a After school play centre where we have 100 children a time ranging from 4 to 10 years.
I run it with my partner as we both run a special needs group at weekends for over 20 years as my oldest son of 29 is Autistic and other needs and lives in Supportive living and proud of how much he has achieved .My Partner is DBS and has First Aid and child care qualified and behavioural management.
I have all childcare qualifications , Safeguarding , Health and Safety and insurances. I am qualified in the EYFS so will observe your child for their next steps of development . I am also Senco trained .
I love working with children and now changing to childminding as I want to monitor children development on their learning journey. We run a warm friendly childminder group and love the children we care for as part of our family . I'm looking forward to seeing how your little treasures grow and develop and excited to work and play with them. Every Child is special and i aim to bring out the very best in them.
My youngest Son is 17 and we have a lovely friendly cat called Maisy who is calm and never scratches, and all the children love her.
I have changed over to childminding as my Daughter has gone back to work as a teacher and so i have my Granddaughter and love having others to love , guide and play together.
WE DO PROVIDE TERM TIME ONLY for Those who need it.
My whole downstairs is dedicated to the children. My play room is bright and airy with lots of fun and educational toys,with lots of resources , books, nursery rhymes, dressing up,musical instruments. Board games for older children .
