About Me
My name is Becky (Pembroke avenue childminding) and I am an ofsted registered Childminder based in Shirehampton, with my husband and two young children.
I am a degree qualified early years practitioner with over 15 years experience working in a variety of childcare settings. I like to spend a lot of time out and about and promote outdoor learning and child-led play. I am a big fan of getting crafty and messy play, exploring all of our senses whilst having lots of fun.
I aim to provide a home from home environment which feels feels safe, caring, warm and is a stimulating environment for children to thrive.
As well as taking part in age appropriate activities following the EYFS at home, we go on outings to the farm, the woods, harbourside, trips on the bus and train and many more adventures.
I feel it is important to work in partnership with parents/carers offering a supportive, collaborative and open relationship in order to ensure every child's needs are met and any relevant information is shared.
My Experience
I have over 15 years experience working in a range of childcare settings and a degree in Early Childhood Studies.
Throughout my three years at University studying Early Childhood Studies BA Hons degree I completed a range of placements at early years settings. The placements included a nursery for children aged eight months to five years, the reception class in a primary school and two special schools for children from five years to ten years with a range of special educational needs. When on placement my role was to complete certain tasks set by the University whilst supporting the children and staff. Each placement provided me with opportunities to develop my skills as an early years practitioner.
After university I worked for Disney Cruise Line as a Youth Activity Counsellor, part of a team of around fifty youth activity counsellors, looking after children aged two and a half to twelve years. My responsibilities as a counsellor involved planning activities and providing a safe and friendly environment for children to come and play.
I have also worked as a deputy manager of a nursery, Au pair in Australia and I have been a nanny for the past ten years. I have also got my own two children so I have plenty of new born experience.
Reference from previous employer:
Becky has been looking after my 3 children for the last 18 months and is a highly recommended nanny, we are sorry to lose her as the twins start school. She is incredibly caring, reliable, with a strong work ethic and has absolute understanding of children and their needs. She is fun but sets clear boundaries, loves being outside with the children, teaches through craft and play and cooks lovely healthy meals for the kids and is respectful in the family home.
