About Me

I live with my partner and our two children aged 16 & 13. I offer a caring, home-from-home environment for your child, supporting them to learn and develop to their full potential while having lots of fun! I will work in partnership with you to provide quality care in line with your wishes.

We have a smoke-free home, an enclosed garden and a pet dog. We take part in lots of activities; painting, messy play, playgroups, soft play, parks, feeding the ducks and others.

I love looking after children, and I will care for your child with the same love and enthusiasm I show my own children.

My Ofsted Inspections

The inspection grades below have been obtained from the Ofsted website based upon the registration number the childminder has provided to us. You should verify this information yourself prior to using the childminder.

Good

22 March 2022

Children benefit from a clear curriculum and strong communication skills development in this setting. The childminder creates a safe, nurturing environment where children are settled and confident. Individual learning goals are set, with effective challenges during planned activities. Behavior is positive, and independence is encouraged. Partnerships with parents are good. Areas for improvement include more focused teaching during older children's self-chosen play and enhancing safety information sharing with parents.
