About Me
Dear Parents,
Spaces available from September.
My latest Ofsted inspection I achieved OUTSTANDING in all categories(please check my Ofsted report online by going to Ofsted website).
I registered as a childminder in 06/05/2010, have full Criminal Records Bureau clearance, and approval by Ofsted to mind children in my own home.
Free 15 hours funding for 3 and 4 year olds.
Free 15 hours funding if meet requirements for 2 year olds.

My priority is protection and safety!
I encourage good behaviour, independence, confidence and teach children good manners, taking turns, sharing and respecting each others.
I live with my husband Grant and we have two children - Simon and Nicole.
I live in a house, where I have a separate playroom which is filled with lots of educational toys, books, games and equipment appropriate for the children that I care for. I have a garden, which has a safe and enclosed outdoor play area with a slide, small swing, trampoline, water/sand table, little car and sand pit. I also live within walking distance to a park with big playground , beach, children centre and local shops.
Thanks for reading:-)

My Experience
I have been a childminder since May 2010. I care for children from newborn babies up to the age of 8 years old. Each child in my care is able to participate in a range of stimulating and educational activities appropriate for their age and stage of development. These activities include arts and crafts, baking, messy play, physical play such as music and movement. I do outings to the park, farm, library, forest, as well as enjoying time playing in my home from home setting.
I have two children of my own, which I think is the best experience you can have!

Our son Alex has been cared by Gosia since he was 10 months old until he started school. Gosia is caring, understanding and positive person who created a warm and safe place for our son. Gosia is incredibly imaginative and artistic in the way she teaches children in her care, with fantastic indoor and outdoor activities and adventures she creates for them. Alex absolutely adored Gosia and loved spending time in her setting. We feel so lucky that Alex was able to grow and thrive in her care. Gosia was recommended to us through friends and we strongly recommend Gosia to parents who are looking for childminder in Southend-on-Sea. We will be forever grateful for her care.

Communication
I have known Gosia since February 2011 when she started caring for my daughter and son before and after school. During this time I have always found Gosia to be honest, reliable and trustworthy.
Gosia has built excellent relationship with my children and they thoroughly enjoy the time that they spend in her care. Whilst in Gosia's care they have been able to experience a wide range of activities that support their learning and development. She has shown that she is very considerate towards the needs and interests of the children in her care and has always ensured that I am fully aware they have participated in.
I have always found Gosia to be friendly, supportive, welcoming and enthusiastic in her job. She has always been very supportive and flexible with childcare arrangements, and on many occasions has been able to provide childcare at very short notice.
In my opinion, Gosia offeres a very warm and homely environment where children are able to feel secure and relaxed. I would highly recommend Gosia as a childminder. My children and I will miss her greatly
