About Me

Hello my name is Lisa. I am married to my husband David and we have two girls of our own aged 14 and 11. I am an Ofsted registered childminder. We live in Huthwaite, where I have a large extension which I use as the main area for the business. There is also a large enclosed private garden space, which is accessible to children. We also visit the wider community on a daily basis e.g. Playgroups, Libraries, Forest Schools, Parks and more.

My Experience

I have worked with children for over 20 years in various settings from running after school/ holiday clubs, private day nurseries, to then moving on to a Primary school, where I was there for 18 years as a Teaching Assistant and a Pastoral leader for the school before deciding to move on to becoming a childminder.
I absolutely adore working with babies and young children. I enjoy watching them learn and grow and I have their best interests at heart in everything I do .

My Qualifications

Level 3 in Early years and Education
Level 3 in home based childcare
Food Hygiene
Emotional coaching practitioner
Positive play support programme practitioner
Level 3 Paediatric First Aid
Child Safeguarding

My Availability

I can't recommend Lisa highly enough as a childminder! Returning to work was really tough for me, but from the moment I met Lisa, she put my mind at ease. She's been so supportive, and it's clear how much she cares about the children in her care. My child has developed such a close bond with her, and loves going to Lisa's house every day. It's such a relief knowing they're in such a safe, loving environment. Lisa always keeps me updated throughout the day, and I love how she tracks my child’s milestones and makes sure to let us know the next steps in their development. They have such a fun time with Lisa, going on regular outings to playgroups, the library, and the park. I feel so lucky to have found such a wonderful childminder!

We have been fortunate to have Lisa care for our little one. From day one, it's been clear that she is more than just a childminder—she’s a true extension of our family. Her warmth, kindness, and dedication to provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment have made all the difference in our child’s development and happiness. Not only does Lisa offer exceptional care, but she also keeps us well-informed and involved in our child’s daily activities and milestones, making communication seamless and always transparent. Our daughter loves Lisa, which makes it a lot easier during morning drop offs and we would recommend her to any parent looking for a reliable, loving, and professional childminder.
