About Me
I provide caring, quality childcare and live in Marske near Westgarth & St Bedes primary schools. My own daughter is now an adult.
I have a welcoming and happy home where children make friends, play, learn and have fun together. I have two wonderful play rooms and one leads into a fun and secure large rear garden equipped with play equipment.
To promote physical development I provide a wide range of fun, educational and exciting indoor and outdoor activities and toy for the children to enjoy.
I provide home made meals each day and encourage children to participate in food preparation so that they learn the importance of healthy eating.

We visit local playgroups, enjoy days out and visiting the park, beach, and other local attractions.
