About Me

Hello my name is Gisele Im Ofsted Register Childminder since 2011 on SE193QU .I have 2 children, one 14 years old boy , a 18 year old girl and a small Yorkshire dog very friendly. As a working mother myself, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your child in the hands of someone else.I hope to make this transition a little easier for you and your child.
My experience as a parent and training as a childminder has provided me with strong skills in childcare.I feel very comfortable and competent caring for children of all ages.
I aim to provide a wide range of opportunities in the form of interactive, fun and challenging activities to enable children of all backgrounds and abilities to develop and learn through play in a caring, supportive and happy environment.?
I fully understand the importance of learning through play and appreciate that each child is unique.What one child enjoys, another may not.I believe that children should be treated with?respect and that they learn from positive role models.
I offer a safe and homely environment and I hold insurance and first aid certificate.I try to use fresh natural organic produce to cook tasty and nutritious meals for babies and children. I also offer healthy snacks throughout the day. We live in a big house with a nice dow stairs conservatory with toilet on ,that was transformed into a playroom with plenty construction toys, role play toys, lots of arts and crafts materials , a nice book corner where children relax listening to chosen story.
We have a good size garden half covered so we can enjoy more with plenty of outside equipments such as scooters, slide, sandpit and more ....
I understand exactly how hard it is to trust a childcare provider with your most precious gift/s in life.
I treat every child with respect and value them all. I know each child is different and learns at their own pace and I will always encourage them. I just love seeing children grow from strength to strength in my care.

Environment I am providing is very warm, caring, full of fun and happiness. Home cooked meals are also provided
I can offer a home collection and Drop services Depends on your area (not school runs ).
Term time contracts are available and I can accept childcare vouchers, tax free 15/30 hours.

I enjoy offering families a welcoming home environment I work under the EYFS framework ( early years foundation stage ) to encourage each child to reach their full potential which is done in a fun way as they develop and learn.

I have a lot of relevant baby experience and I feel comfortable to looking after babies as well as toddlers and school aged children. I have always been a trusted employee until I started to work on my own as a Childminder.

Gisele is great and made me feel very comfortable leaving my daughter with her. We have moved home and I just know I will not find another like Gisele. Thank you, we miss you! Highly recommended and great environment for your child to explore and strive.

Thank you so much

My childminder for the last 5 years

5 stars

We have known Gisele for over five years. During that time she has provided exceptional care for both our kids, looking after them since they were babies.
Unfortunately, we're living far away.
Both were collected from home by Gisele ,often forgetting to say goodbye as he runs through the door!
Gisele is extremely considerate of the children's needs, tailoring activities to suit their interests and always striving to move them on with their learning. Gisele's exceptional care.
They have made such special friendships there and Gisele has become such an important person in their lives.
We highly recommend Gisele.xxx

As a parent it isn't easy leaving your child with someone or trusting someone.Giselle is blessed with an ability to gain your trust in almost no time .
she is the best thing i could have asked for my daughter Monica who was 9 moths
Giselle got along very well and i have no complaints and concerns whatsoever.
.My heart was always full when I picked up my child,she was happy to been there and that smile.....
