My Summary
About Me
Little Chicks Childcare
I provide an environment that is safe, fun and inspiring, where all children are treated with love and care as if they were my own. You can leave your children in confidence, they will be given the very best care and helped with their learning via stimulation and encouragement to EYFS guidelines, in a home from home setting.
Located just off the A46 on the Lincoln bypass, its perfect for parents to drop off or pick up their children when working in the city or many of its surrounding business centres. I am flexible to all your needs as a working parent and will try to assist you at all times with providing the very best flexible childcare possible.
As with all childcare establishments I am Ofsted registered and inspected. I am fully insured.
About me
I'm Angela, I live with my family which is my husband, my daughter and 2 sons.
Our house has ample room indoors and a large secure garden with an outdoor kitchen, along with various other outside items to play with. We love being outside and exploring the woods near by and finding natural resources to use at home.
My interests are that I love to bake and also with the children, I enjoy reading and going out on my bike or for walks and runs through the woodland area at the back of our house.
We enjoy lots of creative and child led activities as well as free play. I have a selection of toys, books, games, puzzles and much more. I believe in the curiosity approach and using natural resources as much as possible to give open ended play. I also attend local playgroups where children can take part in activities. The village park is only a short walk away from my house. You can see our activities and other information on my page.
Children should be given the best possible start in life and I like to work closely with parents to meet their child’s individual needs.

Angela has looked after our 4 year old daughter since she was 1 year old. Angela and her family are genuinely lovely, caring people and treat our daughter as if she is part of the family. Our daughter loves Angela and the family and is always excited to see them whether that is in the setting or when we see them out and about. Angela has a great routine which includes learning, crafts, play and outdoor exploring to name a few. Angela encourages our daughter to be independent and her confidence has definitely grown as a result of this. Angela has been really flexible, especially during the recent months and has allowed us to change plans at short notice due to a change with our work commitments etc. I know when our daughter is in Angela’s care she is safe and is having great fun, the setting has a wide range of toys, books and games and often there is a theme where the children will learn about a particular topic which our daughter really enjoys. We have a great relationship with Angela and I would definitely recommend her, as would our daughter!

Thank you for a really lovely review.
Our daughter has been going to Little Chicks for 18months now and she loves it! Her days are filled with different activities and learning. Lots of outdoor fun too. The setting is well equipped with plenty of indoor and outdoor space.
She’s always happy to be left in the mornings and often reluctant to leave at the end of the day!!
I was dreading returning to work after maternity leave until we found Angela. It was a weight off my mind to know she’s in such a caring and fun environment.

Aw thank you for a lovely review ☺️
Angela's is a really good place to be because there are lots of nice toys. There is space in the new room to play and there are chickens and things to play on outside. The other boys and girls who come are kind and we like to play together. We walk to school to stay healthy and scooter on Friday! Angela is helpful and kind. From childminded children x

Angela has been caring for my son for 9 months now, we have found Little Chicks provides an excellent level of care and provides a professional service.
Angela has a vast experience of caring for all age groups of children and also has experience of working with children with additional needs and learning disabilities; also she has relevant and up to date training.
I was extremely concerned about choosing child care for my son as I didn’t know how I would know which would be the right one etc but as soon as we visited Little Chicks and we met Angela and her family, I knew this was the right one for us.
Angela is approachable and friendly; the environment is welcoming, homely and safe, Angela and her husband have up to date DBS checks.
Angela is positive about development and encourages this with providing him with relevant activities to encourage his development, Angela also takes him to local toddler groups to encourage interaction with other children and in addition to this Angela takes him out in the community for various activities.
Angela has been extremely flexible to meet my needs around work and I have often needed to change the times and days he attends and Angela has always been flexible and worked around this.
Angela keeps excellent records and uses a system called baby’s day’s, this system is very high standard and it is also secure, it has all policies and procedures / observations / notes / meals and much more easily accessible for parents to view, but I love the photos which are stored on the system.
My son feels confident around the Little Chicks environment, he gets on well with all of the other children that attend but most of all he has a fantastic bond with Angela’s family members he loves all 3 of her children and they all care about and spoil my son. Although Angela’s husband works; he always interacts with my son and chats to me when he is at home and my son has a fantastic bond with him too.
I would highly recommend this service to anyone seeking childcare.

I am a parent of two children that attend Little Chicks Daycare.
From day one of starting with Angela, both of my kids have loved being in her care. There's always plenty of toys on offer for them and arts and crafts opportunities. They love the outside area, with its park like facilities and big open space to run around in and especially the chickens!! Angela is very caring towards the children but is also very good at setting good appropriate boundaries.
My children always listen to Angela and clearly respect her. Having a 9 year old boy and 4 year old girl I can vouch for the fact that Angela can happily accommodate and adapt to individual children's needs and interest. Angela has proven to be a very reliable asset to my family and the peace of mind she offers means I can happily leave my children in her care knowing they are happy, safe and most importantly having lots of fun!!
