My Summary
Childminding Space Available
About Me
Childminding Space Available on Thursdays from Now, 3 days (T,TH, F) from September. Highly-qualified and experienced child carer focusing on 0-3 years with a spacious, 4-bed home and garden.
I have almost 15 years of home-based childcare experience; specialising in early years; a passion for children and a commitment to exemplary care. My spacious home and garden, near parks and nature, offer additional play areas and resources for learning, fun and exploration. Following the EYFS, we enjoy outdoor time, messy play, crafts, regular outings and formulated play to foster development in all areas. I focus on the 0-3 age range so have low ratios.
I am a mother of one 3 year old who attends nursery part-time. Being a mother myself I know what an important role a trusted, qualified and valued caregiver can bring to a family’s life. I hope to offer you that comfort and reassurance that your child is in the best hands.

My Qualifications
I have a first-class honours degree in child development and child psychology.
I am trained in infant care, safe sleep (sleep shaping and training), weaning, potty training and behavioural management.

Ashley has been nannying for our family for one month now, looking after our 4 year old and our nearly two year old. My husband and I are very impressed with her enthusiasm and ability to date. She has created an excellent bond with the children, and instigates a range of activities, games and learning opportunities.
