About Me

My name is Paula and I am an Ofsted registered childminder. I am a PACEY member with whom I am insured.
I live in the centre of Elland with my two daughters aged 19 years and 11 years old.

I aim to provide a friendly, happy homely setting in which a child can develope through fun and play. I provide a wide range of toys and activities such as arts and crafts, role play, reading, music and songs etc.

I also like to be out and about at the local parks, libraries and days out and local groups.

I have a car and a clean driving licence which is insured for Childminding business use.
If you require any more information please don't hesitate to contact me.

Good

14 January 2020

A recent inspection found that children are thriving in a safe and nurturing environment. The childminder creates a homely setting where learning occurs through play and hands-on experiences. Children are well-behaved, confident, and have good social skills. A wide range of activities and nutritious meals support their development. Areas for improvement include enhancing mathematical learning, particularly about size, and updating the childminder's skills to further support children's progress.

A member of the family, not a childminder

Paula has become and extended member of our Family. She loves each child as her own and has been so incredibly flexible with us when we have struggled for support as our family aren't local.
Paula has a heart of gold and has gone above and beyond to help in times of need.
Her communication with us is always efficient and my little girl is ALWAYS happy to see Paula's face.
1000% would recommend.
