My Summary
About Me
My name is Lisa Anderson, I am a registered childminder in Longbenton. I was graded good by Ofsted in my last inspection dated 2024.
I live with my partner John and we have 4 children aged 25, 21, 20 and 16. I enjoy going to the cinema, reading and running in my spare time.
I live in a spacious 4 bedroom house and the children have full access to all downstairs including bathroom, living room, quiet room, kitchen/dining room and enclosed back garden and dedicated playroom.
I previously worked in an office for 10 years before leaving to become a childminder in 2009. It works very well with my family and my children have enjoyed having the company of other children.
I live very close to BT Call Centre, Balliol Business Park and Quorum Business Park and within walking distance of both Four Lane Ends and Longbenton Metro Stations.
I offer a warm and friendly environment for children to play and learn. I provide a varied range of activities for the children in my care which includes messy play, arts and crafts, music and dance, baking, gardening, local play groups and outings to local parks and softplays with trips further afield during the holidays.
I have a full clean driving licence which allows me to take the children to a wider range of places depending on the weather, including fruit picking, farm visits, parks further afield, etc.
We have our own private allotment plot and the children are loving learning to grown our own vegetables which includes onions, radish, lettuce, sprouts, carrots, potatoes and cauliflower as well of many fruit bushes which we use to make our own jam with.
My Experience
I have been childminding since March 2009 and in this time I have looked after children of various ages ranging from 5 months to 11 years, but I have experience with older and younger children through my role as a mum of 2 and an aunty to 13 children.
I have looked after children with Epilepsy, Eczema, ADHD and Downs Syndrome and also with food allergies and fussy eaters.

Over the past 5 months I have gained a brilliant bond with Lisa Anderson myself and to watch the work she dose is amazing the bond she has with each child is very different but always equal .
Lisa is very relax ans easy going, she is always coming up with ideas on how to entertain the children and she has showed an excellent knowledge of the understanding of the children's development and always like to keep you informed when your child reaches a new mile stone.
The Memories I have of her will last forever, Lisa is very organised and like to go on outing and always keeps parents informed of what she has done with the children during the day. Picture and other artist projects are always shown to parents and alot to take home.
When I return to work and if I need childcare Lisa will sure to be 1st on my list to contact.

Having used Lisa's service for the last 3 years I would recommend her to anyone looking for childcare.
Lisa offer's a great environment where my son thoroughly enjoyed his time and I went to work knowing he was safe and busy having fun.
The quality of care provided is above and beyond what I could have wished for. I loved going to pick him up each day and seeing what he'd been up to as well as listening to him tell me all the fun things he had done during his time with Lisa.
Anyone looking for good quality childcare should give Lisa a call.
Once I return to work I will not hesitate to give Lisa a call to care for my son once again.
