My Summary
About Me
Hello! My name is Gina and I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder. I love my job! I live in Barnham with my husband Tony. I have 3 grown up children and 2 grown-up step-children. I moved to this beautiful part of the country 5 years ago and we love getting out and about to the seaside and countryside.
My Experience
With over 25 years experiences a Childminder, I am registered with Ofsted, fully insured and hold a Paediatric First Aid certificate. I hold a Level 3 Diploma in Early Years Childcare and Education and I have studied many aspects of childcare and education.
I believe that by tailoring my care of your child to his or her individual, unique needs, he will develop and thrive; by providing a loving and stimulating environment for him, he will feel safe, valued and confident and will play and learn; and by working closely with parents I hope to make the daily transition between your home and my home easy, calm and happy.
I received "Good" at my most recent Ofsted Inspection and I have experience of caring for children with a range of disabilities and learning needs. My practice follows the Government’s Early Years Foundation Stage framework, to achieving the Development Matters Outcomes.
