About Me
Ofsted registered - Good
My name is Hayley and I am 38 years old. I live in Drayton with my 2 children who are aged 14 and 18 years old.
Hayley’s House is open from 7am – 5pm Monday to Friday both term time and throughout the school holidays. I am able to offer some flexibility within my opening hours, if this is required please contact me and I will be more than happy to discuss options with you
My setting consists of 2 large play rooms and a secure garden with a playhouse for the children to enjoy. I work with a small bank of wonderful assistants, they are all trained in paediatric first aid and have had enhanced DBS checks.
I aim to provide a home from home environment where the children can learn through play.
I have a full clean driving license and a 7 seater car which enables me to take the children on outings a little further afield. These outings will include visits to the local farm, seaside as well and exploring the local countryside.
If you would like further information or to arrange a visit please do not hesitate to contact me. I shall look forward to hearing from you.
My Experience
I have been childminding for the past 4 years, looking after children from as young as 5 months and it has been a pleasure opening my home to all my new families.
I have been raising my own children for the past 18 years. Taking my children through early years and onto school has taught me many lessons. I can use this experience to help your child to learn new skills through play and to prepare them for their next steps.

Below are the latest reviews for Hayley. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Its a big thing asking someone to look after your world when you need to work. But Hayley and her team are amazing. I feel at ease knowing my son is so looked after, which take alot of pressure and guilt away. My son is happy to see Hayley greeting him at the door in the mornings and getting updates of photos during my work days is a real boost for me and my husband. I would not want my son anywhere else and cannot recommend Hayley and her team enough.
Thank you for all that you do x

Hayley has provided my two children with a fantastic home from home and I couldn’t have wished for a better introduction to childcare for my youngest who was 8 months when he started there. Hayley is super caring and always ready with cuddles if they are not feeling on top form, my two adore her and the rest of her family!
I have no idea how Hayley’s house is always super clean and tidy despite the fact she has so much fun stuff to keep the kids entertained. They have loved playing in the garden all summer with the paddling pool and giant football and have also enjoyed arts and crafts indoors. Hayley takes them to some groups and they’ve loved outings to the farm and aquarium.
We have been super impressed Hayley’s professional approach to childminding. The Baby’s Day’s app is a great tool for keeping up to date on everything and Hayley updates some great photos of all the fun they have.
We’re only moving on due to changes in work and would highly recommend Hayley to any prospective parents.

I was initially nervous about putting my daughter into a childminder setting, after 18 months of being in nursery full time with lots of children, but now I wish I’d done it sooner. My little girl has come on leaps and bounds since being with Hayley.
She can do all her letters, which is well beyond her age and that’s totally down to Hayley and the learning through play that they do.
They do activities and crafts that i’d never dream up in a million years, and I beam with pride with every photo and video update we get on Baby’s Days.
They regularly go to groups so I never have concerns about my daughter not socialising with lots of children her age.
My daughter eats really well with Hayley, lots of varied and healthy foods.
Most of all, I know she is loved and nurtured and she is just so happy. She looks forward to Hayley days every week.
