Joanne, professional childminder - G73 Rutherglen

- Little Wonders -

Hi, our names are Debra and Joanne and we are both 24 years old. We will be running our childminding service from Burnside which is next to Rutherglen. We are registered with the care inspectorate and are members of the scottish childminding association. We have been working with children for just under 5 years and have a great passion for childcare. We aim to provide a flexible childcare service for newborns up to the age of 16 years old, where each individual families needs are met to the best of our abilities. We aim to provide a safe, caring and nurturing environment for all children in our care.

We will be providing a range of different experiences for the children including:

Arts and crafts, baking, sensory and messy play, sand and water play, song and story time, lots of outdoor play(all the things we know children love). We will also have visits to the local parks and softplays, library visits, using local transport and extended outings.

We have worked together in a private nursery setting for just under 5 years and have decided to bring our knowledge and experience into a home from home environment. Joanne has also worked in a local authority nursery as well as a private nursery setting. We have worked with children from newborn-5 years old throughout this time and have both gained an SVQ level 3 in children's learning and development. We also do babysitting for family members and local families around the community on a regular basis. We both have a full clean driving license and own cars. We hold a full disclosure and are SSSC registered. From our experience we have an excellent understanding of what parents are looking for and their expectations for their children's care. Trust and communication are a vital part of our role.
