About Me

I am a very open and honest person who is approachable and caring, not just for the little ones but also for supporting parents as Childcare can be very daunting when parents head back off to work. I am Ofsted (Good) registered and live on the outskirts of Birkenshaw Bradford with my Husband, 2 children and a Dog called Misty. I offer a home from home safe and secure environment for all children and include daily outings to play groups and parks. I also do school drop off/Pick up from East Bierley Primary only.

My Experience

Ofsted Registered (GOOD) caring for all age children since 2015 as well as having extensive experience with my own children. My Ofsted feedback complimented my ability to teach multiple lessons within just one activity. I'm also a volunteer in the local primary school which has given me the skills to make sure each child is Reception ready when they transition up to Primary school.

My Qualifications

Fully Ofsted registered, Kirklees trained, First Aid, Safeguarding trained, Basic Food Handling, TQUK Level 2 Certificate in Understanding Autism.

My Availability

I pick up and drop off at East Bierley Primary School. My availability varies depending on the children I already have so please give me a call and we can chat through your requirements. I strongly advise parents to come and visit my setting, not all settings meet the needs of all Children so for me it is vital that you come and see what my setting is about before you make the decision. My opening hours are from 7.30 am to 5.30 pm.

My Fees

  • Childminding from £5.00 per hour

I try to keep my fee’s low so childcare is affordable to all. My Daily preschool rate is £40 per day or £25 for half a day (up to 4 hours). Before and after school is charged by the hour.

My Local Schools

  • I provide drop offs and pick ups at East Bierley Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School
  • I provide pick ups at St Columba's Catholic Primary School, a Voluntary Academy

A nurturing environment where children flourish emotionally forms the foundation of this childcare setting. The well-sequenced curriculum builds on existing knowledge, supporting development across various areas. Strong partnerships with parents ensure continued learning at home. Physical and social skills are promoted through outdoor activities and community engagement. While teaching is generally effective, there is room for improvement during child-initiated play.
