My name is Josephine, and I'm a registered childminder with CIW based in Morriston (Cwmrhydceirw) area. I have worked with children since the age of 15 in different settings.

I offer a wide range of activities in which play is an important factor. I live within a walking distance to Cwmrhydceirw primary school, about 10 minutes’ walk to Morriston hospital and 5 minutes’ drive to Morriston city centre and Morriston library.

It is crucial that each child feels welcomed and relaxed in my home. I have many toys to suit all ages and an enclosed garden with outdoor toys. The children in my care will have daily access to the living room, kitchen, downstairs bathroom and spare bedroom for naps.
