About Me

Hello!

My name is Steph and I run Little Bears Childminding from my home in Aldermaston where I live with my beautiful 9 year old daughter.

I offer a warm, fun & friendly home from home setting where the children learn and develop through play.

My Experience

**Ofsted Inspection taken place in July 2023 - graded GOOD**

January 2025: I have 1 space available on Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays/Fridays

March 2025: I will have 2 spaces available on Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/ Friday.

Little Bears Childminding is run from my home in Aldermaston. I have been a childminder since November 2015 and have experience with looking after children from Newborn to primary school age.

I generally operate my service between 7.30am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday, but I will consider extending this to accommodate slightly earlier and/or slightly later times by agreement.

I do not offer a service at weekends or public holidays and I am not registered for overnight care.

I can often offer some flexibility to parents who work irregular shift patterns and/or who only want ad hoc care, but this is dependent upon availability of spaces within the numbers allowed by my Registration.

I accept government funding.

Please feel free to contact me to discuss any aspect of my service and to see if I have any spaces available that meet your needs.

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.

Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
25 July 2023
A nurturing environment with an ambitious curriculum forms the foundation of this childcare setting. Children benefit from strong bonds with the childminder and a focus on language, communication, and early mathematics skills. Cultural awareness is promoted through various activities. While physical development is encouraged, better use of the outdoor space for exploration could enhance learning. The childminder could also focus on improving children's independence in self-care skills.
