My Summary
About Me
My name is Lisa and I am an ofsted registered childminder. I live in Laleham together with my 3 wonderful children.
I have a very easy going personality and take much pride in raising my children in a way that assists them to develop and learn at their own pace whilst most of all having a good environment for them to learn and play in.
We have a large garden with swings, slide, trampoline and a playhouse for the children to explore and a wide range of age appropriate toys both indoors and outdoors.
My Experience
I take the children out on fun daily outings to local parks and nature walks to name a few. I also attend local playgroups/Children’s Centre and soft play sessions. A range of activities are provided at home including lots of messy play.
My main experience is being a mum, so I look at myself through both sets of eyes, as a minder and that of a parent. My aim is to provide a loving caring and enjoyable place for your children to spend their day and I care for them in the way I would want my own children to be cared for.
I strive to offer a home from home experience to ensure that your child feels as happy and secure as they would in their own home.

I have completed and passed the Introducing Childminding Practice Chip Qualification
Safeguarding Children
I hold a Paediatric First Aid Certificate

After trial and error with various settings trying to find our right- fit we were recommended Lisa. Our daughter has been with her for a year and a half now and has come leaps and bounds. The connection was just instant and our daughter asks for Lisa every day. The care and love Lisa has for the children under her care is clear to see and it makes you feel so at ease leaving your babies with her. A wonderful, patient & genuinely kind person with constant fun things planned.

When I realised I had to return to work, I had the daunting task of finding the right care for Darcey. We looked at Nannies, Nurseries and childminders. I search for a few months and never walked away happy. I wanted home from home loving care for Darcey and only the best.
Lisa was one of the last childminders for me to see. We live in Old Windsor so I was getting desperate to find the right one and so I venture further a field. After leaving Lisa's from our first meet, I phone my husband and told him that I had 'found the one' I was so excited to know my daughter would be with someone who's loving and can offer a family environment for her to grow up in while I was a work, after finding Lisa I didn't feel so guilty about returning to work because I knew Darcey would be happy.
Darcey had a few settling sessions with Lisa and not one tear shed....... even to this day I've never had to leave Darcey crying, she loves Lisa and her family and her friends. Darcey settled really well straight away.
Darcey has been with Lisa since she was 10 months old and now she is 2. When I went on Maternity leave with my son I felt guilty taking Darcey away from Lisa because I knew how happy she was there and loved her time there. Even today, if we're up early getting ready, she asks if we're going to Lisa's, she also misses her friends, Lisa's Children and Jack.
I'm due to return to work in January 2016 and hoping Lisa has space for Sebastian.
Lisa is flexible, offers a loving family home, lots of fun time and playtime and learning and development.
Lisa is my Mary Poppins and Darcey favourite person in the whole world (well Darcey world) I couldn't ask for any more.

When I first began the daunting prospect of looking for a childminder there were so many to choose from that I didn't know where to start. But my main requirements was that Jack would be in a home from home environment but with opportunities to mix with other children. We managed to whittle it down to 10. Lisa was the last person I saw, but I knew straight away that this is the person I wanted Jack to be with and this is the environment I wanted him to be in. Lisa offered us lots of settling in time so Jack would feel at home.
Jack has now been with Lisa for nearly 5 months now and i couldn't be happier, even to the extent that we are planning to move house and that one of our main priorities is that we will still be able to take Jack to Lisa! Lisa is an amazing childminder and Jack feels very much part of their family.
Lisa has provided everything I could ask for in a childminder flexibility, learning opportunities days out and a loving family environment.
The only thing I wish for is that Lisa doesn't move!
