My Summary
Outstanding Childminder In Dartford
About Me
I am a registered childminder in Hawley. I live in a spacious 5 bedroom semi-detached home with a separate playroom and large garden. I live with my husband, 3 children (aged 15, 12 and 8) and our dog Millie who is a loveable Cavapoo.
I have recently been inspected by Ofsted and graded Outstanding (May 2023) and hold a current paediatric first aid certificate and DBS.
I offer a home from home setting, with various toys, games and activities, so that your child feels relaxed, happy and enjoys themselves whilst in my care.
I have knowledge of the Early Year’s Foundation Stage (EYFS) and will plan activities and outings to allow your child to meet their full potential and develop as an individual. I feel it is important to work in partnership with parents, so that I can provide continuity of care for the child and so that parents are kept informed and involved every step of the way.
My Experience
As well as having my own children I also have valuable previous experience. Before I became a
childminder, I worked in an established, successful Outstanding Day Nursery for 15 years, only
having time off to care for my own children. I first became a Team leader, leading a small team
and working for children between the ages of 2-3 years. After returning from maternity leave,
after having my eldest son, I became part of the management team. The role came with huge
responsibility, including being the designated SENCO (Special Educational Needs Coordinator)
as well as the designated safeguarding person. I undertook extensive training over the years.
