My Summary
About Me
Hi!
My name’s Michelle and I’m an Ofsted registered childminder, working within the Islington borough of N19 (Tufnell Park). Currently rated “outstanding”.
I live together with my Husband Campbell, (our very charismatic and energetic 9 year old) son Leo; and our fun loving pet cockapoo Oso! (Who is 1) :)
After Covid19/Lockdown; campbell and I made the decision to work together as a team, and have never looked back!
Now as my assistant, Campbell is fully DBS checked, first aid qualified and ofsted registered. Campbell has also had some experience working in a nursery setting with early years children.
Together we provide a stimulating and nurturing environment for children aged between 0-5 years.
We conduct daily outings to the park, library and playgroups. As well as occasional larger scaled trips to the zoo, paddling pools and local farms during school holiday's.
We also provide a lot of opportunities for "messy play" and arts and crafts, and also celebrate special occassions, festivals and events!
We are in close proximity to three lovely parks. We also have two small garden areas for the children to play.
All meals and snacks are provided, and all dietary requirements are followed where necessary.
As a childminder I follow the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework, to support children in their development and general well being. Parents are kept up to date via individual daily diaries, and frequent photos, so that you can see what we’ve been up to!
Fees:
£90 fee (8am-6pm) or £12 per hour for less than a full day.

I cannot recommend Michelle and Campbell highly enough. They started looking after our child when he was 1 years old and he really did become part of their family. He settled in very quickly and loved going there. Michelle really got to know his personality and learnt how to get the best out of him.
Michelle is constantly thinking about new activities and fun places to go with the kids. No day is the same!
Michele and Campbell are both the most lovely and friendly people. You couldn’t ask for better people to look after your child.

Michelle and Campbell are outstanding childminders and I am soo glad to have found them. I had a nursery place but only starting 6 weeks after I had to return to work so asked Michelle if she would look after my 12 months old daughter at the time and I am soo glad I did. Michelle and Campbell are not just looking after your child, your child basically becomes part of their beautiful family, gets to go on trips no nursery can do (water fountains, soft play, parks with pools), gets exposed to a lot of fun and messy play and most importantly gets the right care at the right time. Like when you pick up your child, the reflection that is provided of how she was doing during the day and what happened shows how well they truely understand your child and respond to their needs. My daughter really felt the love and started to just walk into their home after a short settling in period, nearly no tears involved. I heavy heartedly decided to go with the nursery as they are also providing care on a Friday but every day think about just going back as it truely was the best experience for my daughter.
Thank you so much!
Hugs from Patricia & daughter!
