About Me

I am a qualified devoted and hard working teaching professional who is extremely passionate about children and childcare. I am a very honest and positive person with a proactive attitude. I take great pride in teaching and inspiring children. I have a proven track record for offering individualized support, and ensuring that all children's needs and goals are met.

Hi there, I'm Flora, and I'm thrilled to offer my services as a dedicated childminder to families in need of trustworthy childcare. With 15 years of experience and a genuine passion for nurturing young minds, I am committed to creating a safe, loving, and stimulating environment for your little ones to thrive.

Here's what I bring to the table:

????? Experienced Care: With a background in childcare and child development, I have the skills and knowledge to provide age-appropriate care for children of all ages, from infants to toddlers and beyond.

? Safe & Welcoming Environment: Your child's safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is meticulously childproofed and filled with engaging toys, books, and activities to spark their curiosity and imagination. I also have a very cool sensory room.

? Personalized Attention: Every child is unique, and I tailor my care approach to meet the individual needs and preferences of each little one under my watch. Whether it's crafting, outdoor play, or educational games, I ensure they're engaged and happy throughout the day.

? Open Communication: I believe in building strong partnerships with parents based on trust and open communication. You'll receive regular updates on your child's activities, milestones, and any concerns or questions you may have.

?? Flexible Hours: Life can be hectic, and I understand the need for flexibility. I offer flexible hours to accommodate your schedule, whether you need full-time, part-time, or occasional care.



? Certified & Insured: Rest assured, I am fully certified in CPR and first aid, and I maintain all necessary licenses and insurance to provide childcare services with the utmost professionalism and accountability.

My Experience

Apart from the long years of experience in childcare, I used to be a chef in a 5* restaurant in Central London, so providing delicious, healthy food for your child isn't an issue.

Good
28 May 2024
A caring environment focused on independence and outdoor learning characterizes this childcare setting. The curriculum emphasizes well-being and nature-based experiences, with children at its center. Emotional development is well-supported, with strategies taught for self-regulation. While excelling in providing a language-rich environment and encouraging independence in older children, there is room for improvement in engaging the youngest children in verbal interactions and adapting activities to fully include them.

wonderful experience with Flora

5 stars

Flora was great with my 13 month old daughter, she developed well in her care and we really appreciated Flora’s flexibility during the 7 week period that we needed childcare for.

Flora has a sensory room for the kids, which my daughter loved and meals were homemade

Amazing

5 stars

After meeting Flora, a short time into our first meeting I began to warm to her natural kind nature. She came across positive and completely child focused.

My Daughter started attending around her first birthday. She was very challenging to settle at first when I began leaving her, but Flora did her best to over come this stage reassuring both my daughter and myself. She kept me up to date of her progress with pictures and messages, which I found helped me deal with my own feelings of leaving my child with someone else for the first time. Flora had a lovely bond with my daughter. She used a number of toys and activities both outdoor and indoor to entertain and help the children grow. Some of my daughters favourite times were; messy play, trips to the local park and another child’s birthday celebration held by Flora.

Flora would provide healthy lunches/snacks for my daughter when in her care. She really is hands on with the children, and where possible worked along side us in teachings such as toilet training etc.

My eldest was also able to attend during school holidays and she also really loved Her.

I highly recommend Flora to any other parent out there looking for someone that they can truly trust their children with!

Great Childminder!!

5 stars

Flora is a lovely person looking after my 14 months old son for the last 4 months. She’s great with him and natural with kids in general. He’s always happy, fed and well looked after by Flora. She does a little extra teaching him little things and helping me bringing him up as I would do myself. She’s got a lovely baby daughter, so my son gained a friend too! We are so lucky to have found her :). I can truly recommend Flora to anybody, she makes my days at work worry free and giving me daily updates.

Excellent

5 stars

Flóra has been looking after my daughter since she was 4 and I can safely say there isn't anyone else I could trust more. She was always happy to go there, enjoyed her meals, and has built a friendship with the other children she takes care off. She has been quite flexible with me as my requirements and work pattern are quite scattered, and has been very helpful with last minute arrangements. I have been very happy and greatful with her services and hope for her to continue being in daughters life despite her moving away. Good luck on your new journey as a mummy!🤗

Amazing childminder

5 stars

Flóra has been looking after my daughter for a few months now and I couldn't ask for a better childminder. I am fully kept update with my child's daily activity. Flóra provides many activities and toys for my daughter to play with and explore as well as making sure homework gets done if needed. My daughter enjoys and looks forward to spending time with Flóra. Thanks for all you do!
