About Me

Hello my name is Sarah, I have restarted my childminding journey after a break and a house move, I have 6 Children of my own 4 of whom have grown up and have homes of their own, my youngest 2 children live at home with me and still attend primary school. I have over 35 years childcare experience from being a Nanny, Mother ,Grandmother and previously as a Registered Childminder graded Outstanding by Ofsted. I am also an Author of children’s stories and have been fortunate to have some of my work published. “The Adventures of Pinkington Trunk - Finding Emily”, this book was written for my daughter who is one of the main characters, the next 2 books in the series all of my children are characters within the stories. I also wrote a book for my son Thomas about Lockdown which I have had the privilege of reading this in schools and for the Scouts and Guides.

Reading will be a strong focus within my childminding setting.

My childminding setting offers a wide range of activities, trips to play groups, parks and the local town and library. My home is a bungalow and along with a large living room there is a playroom where the toys are kept, this room leads to the rear of the home which has an enclosed outdoor space with a summer house. There is also a carport at the side of the property where children can keep dry if it rains, snows or also to shade from the sun. I offer healthy home cooked meals, snacks and drinks. Children can help to bake and cook in the kitchen and there is a messy play cupboard for paints, clay and other creative resources. Children can enjoy dancing and singing activities daily along with reading and story time.
