My Summary
About Me
I have been a registered Childminder in the south of Lichfield for over 12 years. I live with my husband, 4 children (when they are not at Uni) and our black labrador.
My OFSTED inspection is available on line, I achieved an outstanding grading.
I provide a safe, caring and happy environment for your children to develop, learn and have lots of fun.
I follow a flexible routine which includes attending local playgroups and other activities in order for them to socialise and interact with other children of their age.
Lots of outdoor activities - we have a local park and fairy woods, big garden at the front and rear of the house with a vegetable patch and more. Some of our activities include exploring nature centres and other lovely places..... the National Arboretum, Cannock Chase, local children's farm.
I follow the EYFS and keep a journal for each child, documenting their progression and adventures while here. They will take this when they leave as a keepsake. I will provide you with daily updates by WhatsApp.
I am a home based child carer and will treat all children as part of the family with care and respect. I’m looking for families who are happy to be part of a family setting and will treat myself and my family with the same respect.
If you would like to visit, or any more information, please get in touch.
