My Summary
About Me
My name is Stacey.
I am an outstanding Ofsted registered childminder, living on the Isle of dogs, 5 minutes from canary Wharf.
I have an NVQ level 3 in childcare and a level 3 home based childcare Diploma.
I have been working with children aged 5 and under since 2003 and it is a job i find very fulfilling - bringing children on and ready for their school life.
I am a mother to 3 boys.
I live on the Isle of dogs just across the road from Mudchute DLR.
I am very willing to collect of a morning if it fits in with my timetable.
I have a seven seater with all stages of car seats, buisness insurance and breakdown cover.
I take the children out weather permitting to museums and parks as well as small
Forests and at times we attend forestry lessons, depending on the children’s ages.
I rotate daily activities so the children gain access to different play and surroundings, building their development across the EYFS learning areas.
As i do this i meet with other childminders so that the children we care for have a little circle of friends, that they look forward to meeting each day.
Due to this enviroment the children in my care are often very confident and engaging learners.
Please be aware that most childcare places are booked a few months in advance, so feel free to contact me to see if i can secure your space.
Lastly please contact me with any questions you have, i know that returning to work and leaving your most precious procession is a very tough task, and i will do my upmost to help this transision be as smooth and comfortable as possible, working together so that it suits parents/child and myself.

We wanted to take a moment to express our sincere thanks and appreciation to Stacey for being our daughter teacher.
Her dedication to teaching and her willingness to go to the extra mile made a significant impact on children learning experience .
Lou and us are truly grateful for your unconditional love and care you gave her.
A massive thank you also to all members involved .

Stacey has looked after our boy aince he was 11 months old until 3.5 years old. We couldn’t ask for a better person to look after him. Gabriel was born during lockdown and has little interaction while he was a baby so Stacey was so caring and patient with both… son and mum!😅
She does plenty of activities for them and take them outdoors every day! She has also a lovely garden where the kids enjoy. She does loats of parties! Some i can remember christmas party with santa and foam snow included, summer party, jubilee party, football world cup party, all birthdays and leaving parties….
She also takes them to children centres, the farm,etc
My son was happy at her place and has spent the summer asking when is going back to Stacey’s ( poor thing is going to school). He loves Stacey and we do as well she has made everything easy for us and has been very flexible. No having family in London she gave us peaceof mind knowing that she was willing to help including when i was pregnant again and felt anxious in case i’d needed hospital admission.
She keeps everything documented and fave us a folder with my sons development and some of his artwork since he started.
I could keep commenting forever because there are no enough words to describe how well looked after my son has been. When i show him pictures of his friends at Stacey’s he said “they are my cousins” so this can sum up how homely and loving Stacey’s house is that he feels he is with his family ❤️
We were incredibly lucky to find Stacey on childcare.co.uk when we were expecting our first child. After our first meeting with her we had a gut feeling that Stacey was the right childminder for us, and we were right.
Stacey looked after our daughter from the age of 9 months to nearly 4 years old. During this time we've seen our daughter thrive in the environment that Stacey has created for the kids, with plenty of outdoors play as well as age-appropriate learning activities. Stacey goes out of her way to come up with new activities and themes that encourage learning and having fun. She looks after children of various ages, and it's nice for the younger ones to try to emulate the older kids, and for the older kids to learn how to care for younger kids.
We really cannot recommend Stacey enough. We were a bit heartbroken when our daughter had to leave Stacey's childminding practice but we're sure Stacey will remain part of her life as she's created a special bond with her over the past 3 years.
Thank you Stacey for being such a wonderful guide and partner in our daughter's first years!

Thank you Amelie for your lovely words. It’s been an absolute pleasure to care for your daughter over the past few years and yes we will most definitely stay in touch.
Wishing her all the best in her next adventure.
Our daughter Yixin was under the care of Stacey from September 2nd last year till this September. Within less than one month Yixin will be four years old.
We are extremely grateful for all Stacey has been doing for our little one, especially for the potty training, communication skills development, independent eating and Stacey's full dedicated support for Yixin's two week settling sessions in a local school. Yixin's very last day with Stacey was September 20 and Yixin misses Stacey so much and still wants to go to Stacey each morning on her way to the local school. I know young kids at such ages forget things easily but personally I firmly believe those beautiful memories with Stacey will definitely continue to be somewhere deep in their hearts as they grow up.
If Yixin has a sibling in the future, I would definitely go back to Stacey because she is a such amazing childminder you can always rely on.
Miss you Stacey and you will never know how grateful we are for all your help! Lots of thanks and love from Yixin's family😘😘😘
