What we do

The childminding service that I provide is one where children are provided with stimulating play and learning activities that link to the frameworks that are relevant to their age and stage of development. I aim to provide a warm, caring, home from home environment for children to grow, develop and learn. I will work in partnership with parents in order to provide their children with the best possible care. I will adapt activities and include children in the planning process to meet their individual needs and interests. I always have the children's best interests at heart. I have been involved in the Childcare and Education sector for over 10 years and I have all the appropriate training and qualifications in order to provide a high-quality childminding service and education to children under the age of 12.

Who do we support

lHere at The Butterfly Patch I welcome all families and children from all nationalities regardless of gender, culture, religion and special needs. I am registered to provide care for both boys and girls from birth to age 12. The maximum number of children that I wish to care for at any one time is 6, including my own children.
