My Summary
About Me
IMMEDIATE VACANCIES AVAILABLE
Government funded places
Tax free childcare
I am a fully qualified childcare provider with 21 years experience situated close to Chorley Town Centre.
My main aim is to make children feel at home whilst in my care. They are treated as family and I try and offer a home from home environment.
I take children out to playgroups as i feel children learn through play and interacting with each others.
During the summer months we also go to parks for picnics, seaside to build sandcastles, zoo's and lots of other fun and educational places.
We have a small outside play area which is a fully enclosed safe environment with plenty shade if needed whilst the children can have fun in the fresh air.
I am a smoke free home.
We have a 3yr old miniature poodle called Rosie who is hypoallergenic.

My daughter was given a warm and loving welcome by Donna. She clearly cares for children. My daughter was always happy going and never seemed to want to leave. Donna took my daughter on 'adventures' and she would always come home with stories of fun - Sarah mother to Mollie.
My Experience
Worked at a nursery for 7 years prior to becoming registered as a childminder as I wanted to be able to give a more 'one on one' childcare experience.
I want children to learn through laughter and adventures with me, be it parks, beaches, zoos etc.

My two boys have been going to "Donna's Childcare" since March 2015 and both thoroughly enjoy their time spent being cared for within the setting.
Donna, along with her husband and two daughters, create a wonderful home environment providing a lot of love and care for all the children they look after.
