My Summary
Ofsted Registered Childminder
About Me
Hello,
My name is Lisa, I am an Ofsted registered childminder. I work from my home in Caterham on the hill. I offer a home from home stimulating and fun environment. I have a lovely play room with a wide range of toys and learning resources and a very large garden for your little ones to run around and explore.
I live with my husband and son. I have four lovely dogs and two Guinea pigs. I also have older children who no longer live at home and two grandchildren.
I have worked with children of all ages for over 20 years children seem to warm to me very quickly. I love being around children, and love watching them grow and develop. I have a real desire to give children the best experiences in life and to have fun in all the things we do.
I have also worked with children who have disabilities, ADHD and Autism and Down syndrome.
I am a fun, very happy person to be with. I enjoy messy activities, reading, cooking being outdoors and just having fun in general activities.
As you can see there are lots of lovely reviews. I worked alongside another childminder as an assistant. When I decided to become a childminder in my own right, and left my position, the children who I looked after before, followed me along for my new adventure.
I have a current DBS, food hygiene and up to date safeguarding.
If you would like to know more about me then please send me a message!

Lisa isn’t just a childminder she is like an auntie or close family member. I have been overwhelmed by how lovely she is and how much my daughter came on with her. She taught hef so many things and I’m so thankful and grateful we found Lisa. We will stay in touch even though my daughter is now in school. Thank you so much for making my days so much easier. X

Lisa is a brilliant childminder. The days with her are full, varied, well structured, and the activities are well thought out. There is plenty of learning and a real focus on individual development, but also lots of play and fun.
Lisa is very reliable, provides great communication and clearly really cares about the children in her care. Our little girl is very happy going to Lisa and we plan to send our little boy too when I go back to work.
We can't recommend her highly enough.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your review
Lisa took care of my little girl 2 days a week for a year before she started nursery.
Lisa was sweet, caring, nurturing and welcoming and all the little ones took to her very easily and quickly.
I would highly recommend Lisa as a childminder - she will take the very best care of your little angels

Thank you so much, I really appreciate your review
The amount of care, love, attention and time Lisa gave to our daughter over the 18 months that she worked with her is incredible.
Our little girl has Down’s Syndrome and made amazing progress with Lisa. She was always made to feel special, included and valued.
The past year has been quite a stressful one for us as a family but we have felt supported throughout in so many different ways. We are very grateful to Lisa for all she has done for our daughter - she misses her (she has now moved on to school) but we’ll always stay in touch.
So if you’re looking for childcare that will ‘just do’, this is not for you. If you’re looking for the highest standard of childcare, where your child is valued and cared for as a unique individual, where laughter is a regular part of the day and where you see smiles abounding from all, please look no further.

Lisa is absolutely brilliant and our little one loves her to bits - and we do too! She is always going above and beyond and is really flexible. Our son has developed so much in the time he has been with her, surprising us every day with all the new things he’s learned and we get regular updates on what he gets up to, which gives us peace of mind as working parents.
