we are an Interactive setting and love to do our learning whilst having fun outdoors and indoors - we love to dig, grow things, cook, paint, read, do everything and anything xx we learn as we play and explore subjects, we think outside the box and find unique and interesting activities to excite and inspire. We also join with other childminders in the area - ensuring the children meet lots of new friends x
My aim is to provide top quality care in a family environment, helping children to settle in and feel welcome so they are able to relax, play, learn and have fun - enabling them to become confident, happy, caring little people who look after each other and themselves.
