You will find my home to be a friendly and pleasant place for children to spend time where all children are treated with respect and valued as an individual.I am a Ofsted registered childminder.

I am happy to drop off and pick up at local schools and to look after nursery children. I am able to pick up and drop off your child/children to your home if that is something that will help you and your busy routine at the beginning and end of the day.

I am able to take your child to stay and playgroups, to the library local parks and facilitate activities. I have experience of helping children with their homework. I specialise in the care of children from birth to around 11 years old since this allows me to provide toys, equipment and resources and organise activities and outings geared specifically to that age group, without the compromise of meeting older children's very different needs.
