Emily, childminder - NR7 Sprowston

My name is Emily .
My setting us called Mini Minds tiney Home.
I have just recently registered as a childminder but have worked in the education sector for many years as an early years practitioner and as a teaching assistant. I am so excited to go on this new venture and to be able to offer high-quality care to each child in my setting.

I will be childminding from my home in Heartsease NR7 where I live with my Husband, daughters and dog - Piper.

My setting invitates child led play with resources available for every sage, this sparks their imaginations and let them enjoy play in their own way. Children can develop at their own rate with my support and encouragement. I have an outside area with ride on toys, a play house/climbing frame, sand pit and trampoline. I will give the highest level of care, leaving your child feeling happy & safe.

I like to collaborate with other tiney home leaders, visit toddler groups, local parks, forests and libraries.

My services include:
All day care
Outdoor play
Outings
Use of car
Drop off (if on School route)
Holiday cover
Healthy snacks
