My Summary
St. Albans
About Me
I am an Ofsted registered childminder and a Gold member of Childcare.co.uk. I live in Parkstreet St.Albans. I provide a safe,friendly, homely and welcoming place for all children.
I provide lots of activities and outings to suit different ages and abilities, while working in line with EYFS curriculum.
I have 2 dog that is very friendly a labradoodle that has been around children of all ages and new to our home is a miniature Dachshund that is a bit scatty so she stays away from the children at the moment.
My Experience
I have 3 adult children all of whom have their own families now. So that means I have now got 7 wonderful grandchildren that move in at the weekends!! so I rarely have a child free day but I wouldn't have it any other way.
My earlier career was in elderly care. I am very much a people person and I get great satisfaction from knowing I can help and care for others and to see children develop and gain confidence with a little help from me is just fantastic
Every child that attends my setting is given every opportunity to thrive and meet their full potential.
I can cater for special diets following discussion with parents.
My Qualifications
I am always attending updates and essential training sessions to expand my knowledge, additional training to ensure that I meet the needs of the children and support their development.
I have attained a level 3 CYPW diploma, since becoming a childminder and I am always keen to learn so that the service I provide for the children and their parents continues to improve.
My Availability
I currently have a space on Weds and Thursdays and could possibly do a Monday if 3 days childcare is needed by someone.

Both of my boys went to Carol, they were 5 and 3 when they started at the setting. My eldest is now 11 and at secondary school and no longer goes, but my youngest is still with Carol and is now 10. She truly is a part of the family and has been so caring and helpful over the years. She has played a big part in their early years and has a special bond with both of them. They have always had fun and looked forward to spending time with Carol. Can’t recommend her highly enough.
