About Me

Hi

I am a 39 year old reliable, fun and caring ofsted registered childminder.
I have two sons aged 14 and 7. We have a King Charles cavalier born September 2017. He’s an excellent breed to have with children and he loves everybody.

I am fully uptodate with the EYFS curriculum and deliver it in a fun and engaging way. Your children will learn through free play, role play, group activities, one to one activities, outdoor play, trips out, story time and song time while always receiving lots of positive praise and encouragement.

Thanks for reading and feel free to ask any questions or come for a no obligation visit to meet me and the children.

Kind regards, Charlotte

My Experience

I have one years experience as a teaching assistant in a reception class working half of the time with a 5 year old autistic boy. During the year I also spent many days in the schools nursery with children aged from 2.

I am a qualified primary school teacher and have taught and worked with various aged chidren from 4 to 11 (I met my now husband while training and decided to change to childminding while we brought up a family)

Mondays we go to the library to choose new books and to local play parks. About once a month we go to wacky world inflatable park which the children love.
On Tuesdays we go to fuzzy Ed’s or jungle world play centre with another childminder giving the children contact with more children on a regular basis. In the afternoon garden play or a local park.
On Wednesdays and Thursday mornings we go to two different playgroups with other childminders again making lots of friends and enjoying a change of scenery. Wednesday play group has a dance teacher first Wednesday of each month.

I also have membership to Martin mere which the children enjoy a day out to feeding the birds, pond dipping and making dens.

I have been childminding for 14 years.

Any questions just ask

Good
22 February 2024
A warm and nurturing environment forms the foundation of this childcare setting. Children benefit from a strong focus on language development, with new vocabulary introduced throughout daily activities. Strong partnerships with parents and preparation for school transitions are prioritized. While the setting excels in creating purposeful and exciting activities, there is room for improvement in organizing resources to enhance focus on intended learning and strengthening the mathematics curriculum.

Excellent

5 stars

Both my daughters age 3 and 2 are extremely happy here. Charlotte provides exceptional childcare with care being the important word she is patient and really understands childrens needs and their individuality. Charlotte always has fantastic activities and resources and makes learning fun, she has been and continues to be vital in both my girls development.

Communication between parent/guardian is also excellent with a daily diary. Also receiving pictures of the children's day is wonderful and gives us worrying parents peace of mind that their little ones are having fun.

I can totally see why my daughters love going with days full of trips out, gorgeous home cooked meals and fun activities all with a very caring, loving and fun person.
