My Summary
Lancing /Shoreham Based Childminder
About Me
Hello!
My name is Charly, I have 20 years experience in childcare. During my last inspection, I was graded by Ofsted as 'Good' overall - with two of the four areas of the inspection graded as outstanding. I live with my husband and two sons, offering care for children from birth to 8 years old. I am excited to use my knowledge of the EYFS Statutory Framework and experience of working in nursery settings and apply it to a home based setting. My home offers a fun, nurturing, educational, family environment for your little one to be welcomed in to.
I adore messy activities, being outside and getting creative. We are part of our local childminders group and meet with them weekly, attending play groups, library rhyme times, soft play sessions in addition to local parks, beaches, forests, farms - to name just a few!
Both term-time only and all year round care is available. My working days are as follows:
Monday - Term time
Tuesday - All year
Wednesday - All year
Thursday - all year
Friday - closed
My Experience

I regularly attend and complete training courses to continue to develop my professional knowledge. I am DBS checked and First Aid Trained.
