What we do

Hi I am a friendly childminder caring for children from the ages of 0 to 12 years in my home offering a home from home environment.
I aim to provide a Childminding Service that allows children to play, learn and develop in a safe, secure, home-based environment. Play will be at the centre of the children’s learning and development. A wide range of activities and experiences appropriate to their age and stage of development will be offered including, but not limited to, arts and crafts, baking/cooking, singing, storytelling, role play, construction toys, puzzles, board games and outdoor play. In this way, I will seek to ensure that the children’s days are interesting, enjoyable and varied. I will take the children to local parks, shops, libraries and soft play on a regular basis. I believe that this wide range of activities will support the children’s development and they will also gain new experiences
I also offer light lunches and healthy snacks if required.
