About Me

My name is Nicola I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder, I live with my husband and two sons and we have two house cats.

I have a BA Honours Degree in Early Years Education studies and a BTEC National Diploma in Early years.

I have a well equipped playroom, with lots of play equipment and resources. Children have the opportunity to explore, play and learn in both the indoor and outdoor environment.
A wide range of activities and play opportunities are offered to children to encourage development following the early years foundation stage.

I attend groups throughout the week, including stay and play groups, music group and we also visit local parks and the library.

I am passionate about the outdoors and believe that children can learn a lot from going out and exploring their world. We grow our own fruit and vegetables in the garden and have creative time outdoors. We have a small park very close to our house and Cofton park and the lickey hills nearby.

I pick up and drop off at Rednal Hill nursery, infant and junior school.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information about myself and the services I provide.

A rich and stimulating play environment awaits children at this childcare setting. The highly qualified childminder provides excellent opportunities for outdoor exploration and child-led activities, fostering a strong connection to nature. Communication skills are well-supported through engaging interactions and a language-rich environment. While relationships with parents are strong, there is room for improvement in offering diverse cultural experiences and consistent physical activities for babies.
