My Summary
About Me
A cosy, fun and engaging mini nursery setting with a homely feel, thoughtfully designed to foster independence, creativity and emotional well-being in young children drawing inspiration from a range of approaches such as Montessori, curiosity approach, Reggio Emilia, forest school, hygge in the early years and whole brain child. I pride myself in my dedication to building the confidence of every child who attends my setting and priming them for further learning, with a curriculum that is tailored to their needs - ranging from educational excursions, process art, free play, and structured activities and classes all specific to your child’s next steps.
When signing up with me, families gain lots of additional benefits through the agency I’m registered with.
My Experience
Before childminding I worked as a swimming teacher at a private swim school for two years, where I taught babies from as young as 1 week old up to 10 years and adapted lessons to individual needs and learning styles of each child. I also have a daughter who is now 4 years old and have been the designated babysitter amongst family and friends for around 10 years, and the one who everyone comes to with developmental needs.
My Qualifications
I have completed my childcare in a home based environment L2 through my governing agency, as well as food hygiene for childminders and designated safeguarding lead and I have independently completed an ofsted approved paediatric first aid course. In addition to this I have completed a safety award for teachers through STA, which delves deeper into wet casualties and prepares me for various rescues in and out of the water. I am currently undertaking hygge in the early years rewilding CPD as well as the agency’s “amazing babies” course, which delves deeper into the pedagogy’s I am interested in such as Reggio emelio, Montessori, Steiner/Waldorf and more. My agency also work closely with the curiosity approach and I regularly undertake training and workshops around this approach. I am committed to keeping up to date with the EYFS, and undertaking CPDs which will improve the quality of my curriculum.
