My Experience
I have been a Registered Childminder since 2004. I offer a wide range of child led play and adult based planned activities, alongside your childs interests and development, following Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). I share information weekly through daily diaries, email and informal chats. Throughout my childminding career I have looked after children ranging from 4months-12 years.

My own children are 13 and 10 and are very welcoming to children coming into the setting. I have a cat & a small dog (cavalier King Charles)

'Good' rating in my Ofsted inspection (April 2015 most recent).

My Qualifications
• First Aid in Childcare
• NVQ 3 in Children’s Care Learning and Development

* I can Teacher Talk - 6 week in-depth training for supporting children aged 0-5 years

I also attend regular workshops and training days to further my experience and knowledge. These as much as possible are evenings and weekends so they don't have an impact on my normal working day.
