My Summary
About Me
I am married to Ray, and we have a son called John and daughter called Georgia. Ray is a self-employed Independent Financial Adviser, John works in Telecoms and Georgia has a master’s in Clinical Biochemistry and is working for the NHS at the RVI. All my family fully supports me in my child-minding business and have current CRB/DBS checks.
We have lived in Benton all our lives and enjoy living here. Our home is within walking distance of the HMRC, Library, Metro, Parks, Playgroups, Primary schools, Quorum/Balliol business parks and the Shops.
I currently assist in running of a Friday morning mothers & toddlers’ group at St Bartholomew’s church, Benton with other local child-minders, this has been running for over 10 years now, we organise arts and crafts, play games and singing for the children.
If I sound like someone you would like to care for your child, then please call or email me and arrange to come along to meet me and have a look around our home and get to know us better. I am looking forward to meeting you and your family.
My Experience
I believe in working in partnership with parents; welcoming ideas and encouraging parents to provide me with comments and suggestions in their child’s contact books or when they have time to talk. I run my setting professionally, attending training opportunities, respecting confidentiality, keeping organised records in accordance with current guidelines. I have clear policies and procedures. I am committed to providing a reliable service that parents can depend on and in which they can place their confidence.
I accept the 2-3-4 years of age 15 and 30 hours council/government funding.
I received an overall grade of ‘Outstanding’ at my Ofsted inspection on the 15th of November 2017.
