About Me

Hello I'm Tara and I'm an OFSTED registered Childminder.

I drop off and collect from Cragside Primary School, High Heaton, NE7 7QS

I offer wraparound care during term time for school aged children.

I am also a Learning Support Assistant at Cragside Primary School. This works well as I am able to build positive relationships with children and their families as well as being able to offer a provision that compliments the experiences gained at school.

I'm in walking distance of Cragside Primary School and I have a good working relationship with other local childminders.

My Experience

I have over 25 years experience of working with children and families in roles that are inclusive of nanny, playgroup assistant/leader, childminder, learning support assistant, playworker in an out of school club and being a mum!

As a Learning Support Assistant I have worked across school from Reception through to Year 6, having this hands on experience and overview of children's learning and development has had a positive impact on my childminding provision.

My Qualifications

I hold a Level 3 childcare qualification in Children's Care, Learning and Development.

I keep up to date with all training that is a required by OFSTED aswell as attending non statutory training, eg, Autism Awareness, Children's Counselling, Role of the Keyworker
