My Experience

I have looked after children of all ages from babies to children beginning secondary school. I have a lot of experience to offer as I have been childminding for 22yrs.
I offer home from home care in a dedicated room and lots of fun, outings and activities. I am a short walk from the park, where we stop to play most nights after school.
I trained as a chef and offer nutritious homecooked meals.

I keep development records of the children and help your child reach their full potential in a fun learning environment. During school holidays we have lots of outings where we met with other childminders. I have passes to various local attractions.

Karen is an amazing childminder and has cared for our daughter for the last 6 months. Our daughter has felt settled there since day 1 and all of her family love playing and seeing our daughter when they're there at the same time. Karen's home is safe, warm, loveable and friendly and im so glad my daughter has had the chance to be brought up in a great environment. She provides home cooked meals, takes the children out regularly and always loves a cuddle. She has such a big heart and cares for all of her children dearly.
