About Me

My name is Kerry and I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder offering a home from home environment with a large indoor space with a dedicated play room and lots of space in the garden to explore and run around.
I keep the number of children in my care small so that I can take them on learning adventures and give them the attention they deserve.
Activities will include forest school, parks, playground, playgroups, nature walks and visits to the local library among others. Children learn and develop best when they feel safe and secure and I will work with parents to ensure this is the case for every child I work with.

I appreciate that finding the right childcare can be tricky for your most precious little person, and you probably have a lot of questions and concerns, so please don’t hesitate to ask, I’d love to hear from you feel free to contact me to arrange a visit

I am mum to 2 children, Charlie is 5 and attends Hacton Primary school, so I will be able to offer drop off and collection from this school. Tommy is 3 and has a form of dwarfism called Achondroplasia. We are vegetarian and I will offer healthy meals full of vegetables. We love getting outdoors and being in the garden, learning about nature. I have 3 years’ experience as a childminder working in another setting, and now opening up my own business in our new home. I can be flexible about the days and times I work, if you have any questions at all I'd be really happy to answer them, just get in touch.

I am also trained on CPAP and BiPAP ventilator machines, as Tommy has had sleep apnoea.

My business is called Pickles and Puddings childcare if you want to look at some of the fun things we’ve been up to before reaching out..

I have 2 spaces available up to 4 days per week for 0-4 available now.

Hope to talk to you soon xx
