About Me
Hi my name is Terri, an Ofsted Registered Childminder for the past 20 years. I live in Glenfield with my husband Paul and our two sons. I offer quality childcare on a daily basis as well as before and after school drop offs/pick ups for children attending both The Hall Pre School and Primary School in Glenfield. I also offer school holiday childcare as well as an evening babysitting service.
My husband Paul is my Registered Assistant providing an extra set of hands, eyes and ears but more importantly a positive male role model for the children.
I offer a warm, caring and homely environment where the children can relax and enjoy themselves. They are treated fairly and equally and are given the opportunity to develop new skills in order to reach their full potential within a safe and loving atmosphere. I am fully committed to providing a quality and professional service whilst allowing for each child's individual needs.
I have a large dedicated playroom where the following activities and resources are offered:
Baby and toddler toys
Imaginary and role-play, dressing up, dolls house and shop
Variety of dolls, action figures and soft toys
Cars, trains, fire engines, lego, duplo and mega blocks

All resources used provide positive images of people from different cultures and abilities.
The children are taken on regular outings both during term-time and school holidays.

Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
We wish to reiterate how much our two children have enjoyed attending the Caring4yours setting. Terri has always gone above and beyond as a childminder and gone out of her way to make it a home from home for our children. She instantly set our mind at ease knowing they were in such safe, capable hands. Her warm, caring nature always made the children feel instantly welcome and they very much enjoyed their time with her. In my 8 year olds sons words- 'Going to Terri's is so fun!' We were particularly impressed with everything about the setting from the start. We also liked and agreed with her insistence on manners of which Terri herself always leads by example. Our children can be heard saying, 'Elbows off the table at dinner times. That's what Terri says.'
My daughter was quite shy when she first started but quite quickly warmed to Terri and now she will chat away to her. Terri gave her the opportunities and space to gain confidence in talking to unfamiliar adults and encouraged her every step of the way. She often says 'do it like Terri does it mummy'. The children and ourselves will truly miss regularly attending this wonderful setting. We would highly recommend Terri for before and after school care and holiday times. Thank you again Terri. You will be greatly missed.

My little boy is now almost 9 years old, my second boy is 5 and Terri has been with both of them. Terri is not so much a childminder but now like a family member. She has watched my boys grow and she continues to provide excellent childcare for both.
Both my children are completely at ease with Terri and feel comfortable with her and her husband Paul. There childcare settings fun inviting clean and safe. She encourages good manners and respect for others and is inclusive which is very important for me.
My eldest has adhd and youngest has a dairy allergy and Terri has no problem accommodating this ( I provide specialist food for my youngest).
I am delighted with the care provided for and wouldnt hesitate in recommending Terri.

I chose Terri after a recommendation from a friend who had previously sent her children to her. Terri and Paul are great with the children, both of which have settled in well and enjoy going after school and during the holidays.
Nothing is too much trouble and we are always made to feel welcome when we collect the children. I would recommend Terri and Paul they have become part of our family now.

My daughter has been with Terri for the past 18 months and I have been really happy with the care she has provided. She definitely offers what it says in her profile 'quality childcare in a home from home safe and caring environment'. As a full-time working mum, I feel very guilty leaving her anyway but knowing that she is safe and happy and loves going to Terri's is a weight off my mind. I can tell that my daughter loves spending time with Terri as she always greets her with a big smile in the mornings when I drop her off. I feel totally happy leaving my daughter in Terri's care, she is a lovely, caring lady and I would wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for great childcare.

I was very nervous about leaving my son, he is my first and till his first birthday we had never been apart.
The moment I walked into Terri's home I was made to feel welcomed. I felt at home and at ease immediately. Both Terri and her partner Paul, as well as her two boys are very welcoming, friendly people and set me at ease. After our first meeting I was in no doubt Terri would be the one to look after my son.
I went back with my son and my partner and my son was shy at first but Terri manged to coax him off my lap to play.
It is coming up to a year now and I am delighted with the service I receive from Terri, my son is comfortable with her and her family and pets, his little face lights up when I tell him we are going over to see her. I use Terri for my baby sitting too. She has never let me down.
Terri and her partner both adopt your parenting style so to give your child consistency, I always get a detailed verbal report of what my son has done while he is there. He is always doing new things interacting with pets and people around him and is encouraged in a positive manner to bring out the best in him. I feel my son has grown be a part of this family, always welcomed by all members of all Terri's household including the pets! I am thoroughly happy with how she and her partner Paul look after my son I would recommend them to everyone.
