About Me

I have been childminding for 22 years and love to see the children I look after develop and gain new life skills. I work to ensure that we provide a stimulating environment that enables children to have fun, thrive and reach their full potential whilst also retaining the caring, family feel that is unique to homebased childcare.

My focus is very much on enjoyment and learning through play and I am particularly passionate about outdoor play, whatever the weather.

My Experience

As well as bringing up my own children I have been a professional childminder for 22 years. During this time I have gained experience of a wide range of needs and worked closely with parents and other professionals.
