I'm a registered childminder who provides a safe, warm, homely environment for children to thrive in.
My Experience
Firstly I'm a mother of two children and have been working within childcare for over 20 years with all aged children. From new born babies to teenagers. Most of the families I nannied for have been big families, with 3 or more children. I've been a registered Childminder for the past 7 years and throughly enjoying it. Combining these three experiences has given me a great deal of experience and knowledge in childcare. Being able to deal with many areas within childcare i.e. behavior, healthy eating and development stages of the early years curriculum. I enjoy creating a safe, stimulating environment for children, being able to plan activities indoors and the importance of outdoor play.
Working with parents for so many years I understand how important it is to work closely together and building a great relationship. This enables the child to feel safe, secure and meeting their individual needs.

My daughter has just completed Year 6 of Primary school and is therefore leaving Lisa. We couldn't have wished for anything more; the care given over the past 7 years has been brilliant - our daughter has had a home from home and Lisa and her family have supported and cared above and beyond, we're so sad to be leaving but we know it's not goodbye!

Lisa has been looking after my daughter for over a year and we are still beyond grateful to find such an amazing childminder. My daughter loves going to Lisa’s and has made some great friends. Lisa is always taking her out to a variety of activities and provides a wide range of delicious meals every week. Lisa is extremely accommodating and will always go above and beyond to help us when needed. It is clear that Lisa cares very deeply about the children she looks after and takes a genuine interest in their wellbeing. I cannot recommend Lisa enough.

My little girl and boy have been with Lisa since they were extremely young, they love going and there is always so much to do, they come back having had so much fun and always look forward to going! Lisa caters for every child's needs and is incredibly kind, caring and patient, we couldn't ask for someone more perfect to look after our two children, Lisa goes above and beyond what is asked of her. They have experienced so much with Lisa and my two have bonded so well with her family and the childcare family she provides for, we have been able to relax and not worry when at work knowing our children couldn't be in better hands.

We have been lucky enough to have lisa care for both our children over the last 3 and a half years. It is so reassuring having our children attend a real home from home. Lisa is caring, supportive and very professional. Both children have thrived in her care and have loved being with her family and with the other children in lisa's care.

Our daughter joined Lisa in September 2017 and we are so grateful that from day one she has been happy and content in the environment.
Erin transitioned from nursery to Lisa when starting school, and the change was seamless; we didn't encounter any upset at all.
Three years on and Erin still has great relationships with all the children in Lisa’s care; they are all great friends and have even had zoom meetings during lock down!
Lisa does extremely well ensuring respect and care is maintained between all children and it’s lovely to see and hear the children playing together whether it be in the playroom or out in the gorgeous garden; Erin is aware of rules set and enjoys her time knowing where her boundaries lay and this also extends to the walk to and from school where Erin has always arrived and been collected safely.
When in the garden Lisa has ensured that Erin has sun cream applied and that there are shaded areas for play – and tea time picnics! We have never collected Erin from the garden in hot weather and she’s been without a hat and sun cream.
Erin loves the variety of outdoor apparatus; slide, swing, trampoline to name but a few.
When school has been closed due to snow Lisa takes care of Erin in similar measures; cold weather clothing for snow play and hot chocolate to warm up afterwards.
Erin is always fed well and enjoys her meals at the table with her peers. She eats a variety of meals and has always been satisfied.
Using the Baby’s Days app, we have found it easy to sign policies, permissions, attendance registers and have enjoyed seeing the uploaded pictures of Erin and reading her daily notes. .
We have definitely found a 'home' from home for Erin!
