Natalie And Tracey

About Me

We are two qualified child minders. We have been registered with ofsted, We have 3 children between the ages of 12 years and 21 years, Our eldest is currently away in Uni studying English Literature and Psychology. We are situated just 5 minutes from Sefton park and Allerton, and 15 minutes from the city centre. We can do school drop offs and collection from St clares school, Greenbank and Breakfast club drop at Smithdown Primary. We are currently just setting up our gaming room ready for our after school children and for during the holidays. We have very close bonds with our current parents who are devastated there children have to attend school and have had their children with us for their funded years until the school legal age when they had to leave. We offer 15/30 hours funding and also accept parent vouchers too.
Our Environment is a home from home environment and our days are filled ensuring your child is having the best time while also expanding their learning to the maximum. We have paddling pools on hot days and snowball fights on the cold. Your child gets cuddles if feels a little sad and laughter if feeling grumpy.
We Offer an large intensive and exciting learning environment for your children both in our setting and through our outings. We have lots of activities for baking, messy play, painting, construction, numeracy and literacy incorporated into our weekly activities. We regularly visit libraries, clubs, museums, martin mere, beach, parks ect. We have Santa and donkey visits to our Christmas parties and have the children brought up as part of the family, with our own three children treating them like brothers and sisters. Our learning environment is planned and set out to ensure children thrive in their first important years. Every day holds something new and exciting that your child doesn't actually realise the learning in place as its all great fun. Both me and Tracey have been inspected and received good by Ofsted and have the reports available to view on request.

This is for both contractual reasons and also for Emergency reasons. I am required to inform you of how I both process and store personal data in my setting.

The Information I Collect

In my setting I am mainly paper based and all records are stored securely within my home in a filing system. I do use a closed group for all news relating to my setting, and I use emails for invoices, policies and permissions. As childminders no unauthorised people have access to these records and any visitors to my setting sign in and will never be left alone with any confidential information. We Do have an accountant who deals with the invoices and has child's Name and hours attended. No other information is shared. Please refer to my policies for further information.

How I Use Your Data

Sometimes I may need to share information with other settings to ensure your child is getting the best possible and consistent care. However permission is sought for this. Major safeguarding concerns will be the only occasion I may need to share information without permission. Please see my safeguarding policy for further information. Mostly I use the data to enter into a legally binding contract with each family, and also to use in the event of an emergency.

I am covered by the ICO for using my mobile phone to make contact with you and to store your numbers and also to take photos of your child. Photos are deleted as soon as possible, usually by end of each month.
