About Me

I am a qualified Childminder who is looking to provide a warm, loving, safe and secure environment for all children in my care.

I offer quality child care from Birth to 11 years in a happy, relaxed, friendly, clean, secure and homely environment. A place where children can play, have fun, make friends and feel secure throughout their early years. I aim to provide a family style setting in which each child is treated the same, the children I look after are not only my 'Little B''s' but part of my extended family.

I am more than happy to work with parents and take extra time if needed to settle children in if they are anxious, nervous or just wary of the new environment. It can be a challenging time for children and parents and i work to make it as comfortable and positive as possible for all parties.

I have an enclosed garden for the children to use at all times. I love being outside with the children and I have a local duck pond and 2 parks within walking distances from my house,

Activities for my Little B's will included, sticking, painting, drawing, cooking, construction, singing, trips to the library and toddler groups, local parks and softplay. I also meet up with other childminders so my 'Little B's' have fun and build friendships with other children.

I am happy to take children in my care to local groups, for example Music and toddler groups but parents must pay for these in advance.

My setting is organised so that the children can choose which toys they want to play with.

Every child and parent/guardian is welcome into my setting regardless of race, gender, age, backhouse, religious or cultural beliefs. I will adhere to any requirements the child may have to ensure they are all treated fairly and equal.
