My Summary
About Me
Hello, i am a 32 year old female. I have a 7 year old little girl and a 3 year old boy of my own. I own my own home in Norwich with my partner who is a soldier in the forces. I have been looking after children for 14 years and still love what I do. I am reliable, trustworthy and honest. I believe it is important to work in partnership with parents to ensure I can provide your child with the best possible care. I am enthusiastic about working with children and aim to provide children with a fun and stimulating environment that they feel safe in. We do lots of cooking and craft activities as well as going on lots of trips to the woods, library and park. I have a dog, 2 friendly cats, 2 rabbits and a guinea pigs. Please get in touch if you would like any further information.
My Experience
I have been a register childminder for 7 years with an ofsted rating of good. I have worked in several different nurserys and along side familys as a nanny. I spent 7 years working within a surestart centre in the baby room with children aged 3 months to 2 years. Since having my own children I have been working as a registered childminder so that i can care for them at home while doing a job that i love.

My 4 year old little girl has been going to Naomi since January 2018.
We have had no problems at all with her not wanting to go to Naomi's, which really is a testament to how much the children in Naomi's care adore her!
Naomi is warm and friendly, and really cares about all of the children she looks after. Her setting is safe, with plenty of toys and activities to choose from, both indoors and in the garden. Naomi also often takes the children to the local parks or woodland areas, which is an added bonus!
Additionally, Naomi is very reliable and really does her best to cater to your childcare needs. She sends a note via messaging with all of the details of your child's day, along with pictures.
Thank you Naomi - we really appreciate you!

Naomi has looked after my daughter for over a year now and she always looks forward to going. They are always busy baking cakes, playing with the animals in the garden and going on outings! My daughter has a really good relationship with all the other children there and I think this is due to Naomi’s approach in making a family environment. Naomi’s house is clean, she has lots of brilliant resources, and a warm and welcoming feel. Naomi always has a smile, is kind and my daughter is always so happy to see her and spend time with her.
My daughter had separation anxiety when we first left her with Naomi and Naomi sent us so many pictures and updates to let us know that she was having a good time. The communication has always been brilliant and there have been times when I have needed emergency childcare for both my children, and she has been there to help.
I went to see many Childminder’s before choosing Naomi, I knew she was the right one because the first thing she did was get down to my child’s level and give her a big smile.

Naomi minded our 1 year old son, Sam, for nearly a year in 2013 which only ceased as we moved away from the area. She was always reliable, flexible and friendly and Sam was clearly happy in her charge. I'd recommend her to anyone in need of a childminder.

Overall
I found Naomi through this site in September 2011 and I am so glad I did! My daughter Daisy was looked after by Naomi from September 2012, for a year, whilst she attended reception at Lionwood Infant School (aged 4). We relocated to Cambridge hence having to move Daisy however we still go back and visit which is a testament to how lovely Naomi and her whole family are.
Daisy adored her time with Naomi and would often rather have stayed there playing than come home! Naomi is professional and dedicated to her job. Having used 2 previous childminders I can honestly say Naomi is by far the best, going above and beyond what she is required to do. The children all have so much fun, in the holidays they have trips out and after school they regularly bake, do art work and enjoy her spacious garden. Naomi also used to provide Daisy with Dinner which was home cooked and nutritious.
Lastly I would also like to add that as a non-smoker I was initially apprehensive about meeting a childminder who had declared that she smoked however I would just like to say that from the moment I met Naomi in her home it was clear that she is extremely professional and true to her word regarding smoking. Her house is clean and doesn't smell of smoke as is her car. I would not have chosen Naomi if this wasn't the case and just want to put others minds at rest if this was a concern.
I hope this helps anyone trying to decide who should look after their child when they are at work. It's a really daunting task finding a childminder so I hope this helps.

My daughter goes to Naomi and Naomi is very lovely and friendly and makes me feel comfortable about leaving my daughter. She has lots of toys and space and I wouldn't want to leave my daughter with anyone else! Highly recommend x
