About Me
Here are two quotes from my recent Ofsted Inspection;
"Children benefit from the childminder's ambitious curriculum, which is well planned
and helps children to acquire a wide range of skills and knowledge."
"Children show a positive attitude to their learning and have warm relationships with
their friends. They show clearly that they are very happy. They have a warm bond
with the caring childminder, who knows them well and is sensitive to their needs."
I am a fun, easy going and energetic person, who enjoys working with young children. I have four children of my own; all who are already at school. They love that I'm a childminder and enjoy seeing and playing with the children I look after.
I currently work Monday to Thursday, 7.30am to 5.30pm, *term time only*. (Until 6pm is negotiable)
I run a home from home setting, where we enjoy going to the park, the woods, the library and being out and about, or playing at home, both in the house and the garden. I offer a variety of child lead and adult lead activities, and will track each child's development, providing what they need for their age and stage of development. I had my first post Registration Ofsted inspection in March of last year and attained a ‘good’ rating with lots of lovely comments; please see attached Ofsted report in my documents.
I use the Babysdays App to relay daily photos and diary notes to let you know what your child has been doing that day. I also plan a weekly menu which is sent out in advance; Children in my setting can have parent provided meals or for a small charge I can provide meals.
Please get in touch if you would like to chat further; I hope to hear from you soon :)

Our daughter has been with Natalie for over 6 months now and we cannot recommend her enough. Her setting is a home from home environment which our daughter thrives in, she also has a great relationship with Natalie, the other children in her care as well as her own children. . Throughout the day we get constant updates via the app, and our little girl is always super excited when she leaves and tells us all about her amazing day!

I couldn't reccomend Natalie more. My son absolutely loves her and is always asking to go to her even on days when he isn't booked. She is super calm and reassuring and I am alway impressed at how she looks after the kids and plans such fun things. My son is starting a school nursery in September, but we have kept one day with her as we really value her input into his young life. She creates a safe, fun and nurturing environment for the children.

We’ve been sending our daughter Sophia to Natalie for almost a year now and we couldn’t be happier. Natalie provides a home away from home environment. Her own children are a delight too and Sophia has really bonded with them and created friendships with them as well as the other children Natalie cares for.
The days that Sophia spends there, are well structured with learning activities, lots of trips out to play centres or parks and there are many opportunities to play and learn at home too. Natalie updates us on how Sophia is doing throughout the day through the baby’s days app which is so helpful and it’s nice to get photos of all the fun they are having too. Natalie’s kind and caring nature has meant that Sophia settled with her very quickly and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a childminder. Natalie even helped us with establishing some sleep routines which we were struggled with at home so we couldn’t be happier! :-)
