About Me
Hi, I’m Andrea.
I was rated OFSTED OUTSTANDING in 2009, 2015 and 2020. I have been childminding for 22 years.
I have lots of experience catering for different families and children. I have experience in some special needs. I am fun, loving and dedicated, We are lucky to live in a semi rural location, surrounded by lovely views, a local park and animals. I live with my husband, one of our adult sons and a two year old black Labrador.
I have a dedicated playroom and large garden. The children and I have regular outings (zoo, parks, playgroups, library, socialising, train/bus rides, craft activities and messy play) to name but a few. I work very closely with a few select childminders in order to offer a slightly larger group of friends. Although most of my business comes from past recommendations, please feel free to contact me to arrange a visit, for you and your child. I may be able to help.

My Fees
- Childminding from £6.50 per hour
Please contact me for up to date prices.
I accept all Early Years funding from Kent County Council, which is term time only for 38 weeks a year. All hours over and above the 15/30 hours and outside of the 38 weeks are payable by the parent/guardian.
I deliver the free entitlements between the hours of 8-6, Monday-Thursday.
I offer a personal care/consumable package and it is your choice whether you pay for it (please see personal care/consumables package policy)or bring/provide all items listed on a daily basis.
This will be discussed with each parent/guardian individually.
It is the parent’s responsibility to renew their funding code every three months. If they fail to do so and funding is not paid, they are responsible for paying their child’s invoice.
