About Me

I live in a 3 bedroomed house with a front garden and large enclosed back garden with covered area allowing access during bad weather. I live alone with my 13 year old daughter and two young sons, 3yr and 1yr . My home is close to all local amenities and public transport including rail. We are approximately 10/15 minutes walk from the town centre and my local primary school and nursery.

I have my own car and a selection of car seats for all age ranges. I have held a full driving license for 13 years with no endorsements.

I enjoy socialising, reading and watching films at home and the cinema. I love spending time with my children going to the park, swimming, riding and visiting a friends ponies.

My Experience

I have been childmindinding since July 2011.

I have 9 years experience working within private nurseries and 9 years childminding experience. I have worked with all age ranges from weeks old up to 12 years. I have had room leader roles within a variety of these ages and a deputy managers role.
I have a 13 year old daughter and two young sons and care for children of friends and family on a regular basis.

I offer a wide range of toys and activities for all ages and stages of development, including lots of resources and ideas for messy play. I offer outings to my local parks and the South Park, playgroups, library, local shops and on daily school runs. I do at times, e.g. during school holidays, plan further afield outings to lots exciting destinations.
