My Summary
About Me
My name is Claire and i am an ofsted registered childminder living in Titchfield Common , Fareham.
I have 3 gorgeous sons, one 15 yrs old and twins age 11 yrs old.
I have a safe,secure,fun and loving home to offer to the children i care for and can offer a wide variety of toys and activities for all age ranges. I also like to take children on outings inc toddler groups , going to the park , story time at the local libraries and many more which will provide an opportunity for children in my care to interact with a larger number of children.
The whole of the downstairs of my house will be avaliable to children which includes a large bright playroom that opens up to a large fully enclosed garden full of outdoor toys and equiptment.
I can drop off and collect from Locks Heath infants and junior Schools , St. John the Baptist primary school and local pre schools if required . I also collect from park gate school .
i have completed my level 3 Diploma for the Children and young people's workforce and also my paediatric first aid qualification.
I gained my “outstanding “ status in 2015 by ofsted and have recently been inspected again in March 2020 where i kept my “outstanding" grade of which I am very proud. This report is available to all parents.
I have two qualified childcare assistants that work with me
