My Summary
About Me
I have just over 24 years childcare experience, formally a nanny and then changed to childminding when I had my own children. I have looked after children as young as a day old to 12 years old, working in partnership with the parents at all times.
I live in West Molesey with my husband Mark, our 2 children (Maisie 13 years old and Ollie 9 years). We also have a friendly and fluffy Tibetan Terrier (Poppy is a calm and sociable hypo-allergenic 3 year old dog). We live in a 3 bed house with plenty of space, a dedicated playroom and a garden also.
My week is based around the children's moods and interests at the time. It’s all about being happy and developing at a pace that suits each individual child. We enjoy lots of local activities together; the library, playgroups (even a dedicated childminding group), singing sessions and lots of outdoor space. We also spend lots of time in our home playing, reading, doing arts and crafts and baking.
I use an online software (called babysdays) to log diaries, track development, plan next steps and share photos of our day. The parents can log on to access and add to this too.
My Experience
Ive cared for over 35 children in their own home as a nanny or childminding at my home in the last 24 years. Many of which Im still very close to. Ages vary from a day old to 12 years.
I've supported children with ashma, as well as coping with severe allergies, including regular medication.

Louise has looked after my 2 children (Louis nearly 2 & Lillie 1) since April 2017. I cannot recommend her enough. Louise was great at helping the children settle in and I always felt very reassured they were in a great, fun filled environment with lots of learning and great home cooked meals! We will all miss Louise and her family but will definitely have some adhoc sessions and play dates as my little boy and Ollie were great play mates!

I just wanted to say thanks for your lovely message. I'd love to get in touch as I got a good feel, reading your post and profile. However, having just talked once again over our options, we have just decided to first consult our local network before signing up to this website. (We may find our way back here if we haven't found the right solution in a couple of months time...) I hope you understand. I wish you and your daughter all the best! L.
