About Me

My name is Michelle, married to Trevor and have 3 of our own children aged 25, 23 and 14.
I am OFSTED Registered with an OUTSTANDING (April 2023) in all areas at my most recent inspection. I am happy for parent(s) to view my setting and have an informal chat in preparation to secure childcare. Our home is clean, safe and secure benefiting from a dedicated playroom and sleep room downstairs. The garden is safe and secure for all children to experience and enjoy outdoor play.
I have a recognised ECaT qualification as well as SEN abled. In addition to that I have my level III in Childcare through Brockenhurst College, this qualification was achieved successfully and I am also in a position to offer 2, 3 and 4 year old funding. I offer the 30 hours funding for 3 and 4 year olds.

All children on my register are all unique and all with different requirements in terms of childcare required and of course all at different ability levels. I hope you will take the time to give me a call - I am always happy to help, give advice and can suggest other suitable childminders in the local area should i not be able to help immediately.

My Experience

As well as having my own happy, healthy children I have gained a wealth of knowledge and understanding when delivering the EYFS to all of my mindees. I attend regular safeguarding forums, EYFS meetings amongst many others to ensure I am up to date with trends and information. I am able to tap into a wealth of support with other likeminded childminders but also the team at the borough.

Excellent

5 stars

Michelle and her family welcomed my 7 month old girl into her home until she started school. Excellent facilities with massive play area in the back garden where play was encouraged all year round. Michelle is very professional and clearly loves her job. I couldn't recommend her more and my now 5 year old still asks why we don't see Michelle anymore.
