About Me

Hello, I'm Ann Murray, founder of Good As Gold Childminding Services Ltd.

When you're signed up with us, we prioritise you and your child's emotional well-being, education, and social development. We believe in learning through play, and both adult-led & child-led activities.

To give a flavour of what we cover most days, we do; the daily register, set up the calendar, puzzles and board games, reading, drawing, play-dough, cooking, music, dancing, action songs and making a lot of noise playing musical instruments. We also have lots of garden play, including a fun paddling pool, slide and ride-in cars. We love growing things too, including; Mr. Grass Head, sunflowers and a variety of fruits and vegetables.

We identify fun learning opportunities and make great use of available resources such as Baby Club on BBC iPlayer. The children all love 'What's in the bag?'. We also have a fluffy cat called Jedi who loves cuddling up with everyone and is very mellow.

We have a lot of free-play and sleep times scheduled throughout the day, as well as nappy changes, and we provide 3 main meals each day (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner) with snack breaks in between throughout the day.

Home time is always fun as most of the children I have cared for over the years complain that they haven't had enough time at Ann's House, which always makes me end every day on a happy high note.

Let us know your available date ranges and we can arrange a suitable time for your visit and interview. Your children are most welcome to come along as well, as funnily enough it is usually whether they like it here that makes up most parents’ minds!
