About Me

Hi!
I’m Leah, I am 33 years old and am a Mum of two young boys. Myself and their father all live together in our spacious two bed, ground floor apartment.
We live in short walking distance to Ickenham and West Ruislip train stations, which provide major transport links. As well as having several bus routes on our door stop.

We are a home from home setting and I pride myself on having a fun, loving environment for the children.

I have worked in childcare for over seventeen years. Since having my own children, I have decided it is the perfect time for me to start childminding, to be with my own children whilst also supporting the learning and development of other children too.
Being a parent myself, I have first had experience of what is like to have to leave your children in a childcare setting. I deeply value the importance of a strong working relationship with families and children and I aim to make the process of leaving your child that little bit easier, providing you with a respectful, positive relationship from the get go.
Parents know their children best and in order for me to form a positive attachment to each child, it is vital that I gain key information from their parents, to make the settling in process as smooth as possible.
It is extremely important for me and your child to meet each other at my setting, before a space is agreed. I want every child to feel happy and welcome in my home.

Access to the outdoors is very important to supporting the physical and mental well being of the children. We have a small outdoor space, which is used for messy activities, water and sand play. As well as being lucky enough to have over five parks within only a 5/10 minute walk.
We are a very active setting and our out each morning. This includes walks, exploring the outdoors, observing wildlife, visiting the local library, attending toddler groups, or soft plays and daily trips into the local community.
All of these are included in the child’s fees, unless otherwise agreed in advance. For example, booked termly groups such as Hartbeeps, may be an extra charge.

I have a seven seater car, which is insured for business use. I have various car seats to suit the age, height and weight of each child. My car is used on most days, but I also value the importance of taking children on public transport.

Please feel free to message, email or call me should you wish for more information.
I look forward to hearing from you.

My Experience

I have worked in an early years nursery for over 17 years. This has included me working with children aged from three months to five years old.

I have lead groups of children as a key worker, building close relationships with their parents and carers, working in partnership to support each child’s individual development.

Working as a key worker has been vital in learning the importance of developing a strong bond with each child. In order for them to learn and grow they must feel safe and secure in their environment, the starting point for this is a trusting relationship.

I have working knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage and the importance of providing an environment which meets each child’s individual learning and development needs. Assisting children with their next steps, through observation and planning.

I have experience working with SEND children, leading and assisting Attention Hillingdon sessions and ‘bucket time’ groups. I have worked with children using a picture exchange communication system and have completed referrals to outside agencies such as speech and language.
I have worked alongside outside agencies in partnership with parents and carers, to ensure the needs of each child are being met.

THE BEST!!

5 stars

I could not be more confident in Leah as a Childminder. Her knowledge & understanding of children’s needs are excellent and her many years as a childcare professional truly shows. On top of this, Leah has the most warming personality and exceeds in making sure my daughter feels safe, loved and having the absolute best time! I get updates throughout the day & constantly overwhelmed with the amazing activities & outings she plans which my daughter loves. From arts & crafts to baking, Leah covers everything I feel guilty not to be doing due to work! The facilities are home from home & my daughter is always extremely happy when I drop off & collect. Could not recommend Leah enough! Thank you always!!x
