My Summary
About Me
Hello my name is Nathalie and I am an Ofsted Registered Outstanding rated Childminder. I work in Willesborough, Ashford, Kent. I am a Mummy to two boys and two girls.(The eldest being 25 years, the youngest is 12)
My setting is totally dedicated with three fully equipped playrooms that include a wide range of toys, books and activities suitable for all ages and stages of development. Which also includes a dedicated safe kitchen and eating area.
We have a large garden with a dedicated garden learning and play room which the children enjoy with outdoor activities, planting and learning about nature and the changes in the seasons .
We have one lovely Ginger kitten, a cute rabbit and a very loving poodle who all love people and especially children.
My partner David works with me and is horticultural trained so will be planting and gardening with the children, as well as being the artist of the family!
We are very much into arts and crafts and getting messy!
We love story time, warm up time and of cause singing in both English and French which I have learnt over the years from my family in Paris (My mother is French).
I follow the EYFS structure of learning and fully understand the importance of children's early years development. I work closely with parents in all areas of their child's development including regular structured reviews and objective setting.
I also work closely with other local child care providers and have a network of new ideas at hand!
We love to get the children out and we organise regular outings and activities including toddler groups,music classes,library,local farm and wild animal parks etc.. .
My Experience
I used to own and run a successful Tumble Tots Franchise so I have plenty of experience of working with all children. I have also worked in the care industry with people with learning difficulties.

I had both my 1 and 2 years old going there and I must say, it breaks my heart to leave. My daughters just love it there. My two years old used to cry each time I dropped her at my local day nursery, but I never got any tears on leaving her there she actually ask for it everyday! She even jumps out of bed when I say we're going there!
They provide a wide range of art and craft activities for children, which the kids bring at home. They organised day trips and visits to children centres weekly. They have yummy home cooked food and Nathalie make sure that they have a balanced diet. The setting is all designed around the kids. The kids learn songs both in french and english.
I will start a new job with different hours so I cannot use their services anymore but I cannot praise it enough.
Thank you so much Nathalie and David for caring so well for my babies.
See you soon
Betty
