About Me

Hello, I am heading back to work a few days a week but as I work nights, I need childcare for my two youngest children during the day on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Addison and Buck are Irish twins. Addison being 1 (20 months old) Buck being almost 9 months old.

Addison has been walking since she was 9 months, and she is very independent. She's been a babler for a while but is just really starting to pick up words now. We often call her Feryl Beryl as nothing phases her, she could fall over and give herself a big bruise and she will just get up and carry one like it's nothing!

Buck is the happiest little boy! He's crawling and pulling himself up on absolutely everything now, I don't think walking will be too far away! He is still on bottles but is eating as well, BLW isn't the one for us but he does love his food!

Both love silly play, Addison love being chased around - unless she decides she's not in the mood but she will let you know if she isn't! And she is obsessed with dancing- od you put The Greatest Showman or any cou try music on, she will most certainly have a boogie or a spin!

In the night garden, super simple songs, dancing fruits and Ms Rachel are all firm favourites.

Addison was in nursery full time from 11 months old to 14/15 months old and she absolutely thrived but finances meant we were no longer able to continue with that.

She can sometimes get a bit jealous of Buck so I'm not sure how it will be in a nursery or childminding setting but she does absolutely adore him and shouts for him whenever he isn't there!

I have no concerns about Addie being away from me but I am nervous with Buck, I know he will be fine, I just don't know if I will be!!

I have only used nurseries before but I think I would want a childminder now as would like a more homely feel.
