My Summary
About Me
Hello I’m Alison and welcome to my warm, loving, fun and friendly child care setting.
I live in the Chatterton Village area of Bromley with a 15 minute walk to Bromley South station with a local bus route a short walk away. I live with my grown up children & husband.
Being a parent myself gives me that extra bonus of truly understanding all those feelings you have when leaving your child.
I have a wide range of toys, including educational resources to meet all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage. I have a separate playroom with ample space which is attached to my garden.
I love taking the children out each day to playgroups, soft play, park walks and many more exciting places.
At mealtimes, I offer healthy balanced meals and encourage the recommended 5 a day fruit and vegetable scheme.
Safegaurding is a responsibility that I take very seriously and I like to keep every child safe and follow our local authority safegaurding children guidelines.
I understand how difficult it can be for parents to leave their child in the hands of someone else, and so my aim is to make the transition a little easier for you and your child.

Alison is one fabulous childminder ! We had being so lucky when a friend of ours had recommended her to us, as we struggled to find the right childminder. But the moment we walked through Alison's house door, we almost immediately knew she is the perfect "match in heaven" for our 3 years old son.
She is very charming, warm and welcoming, has a caring and loving approach, fun to be around but yet responsible. She always makes enough time to chat about our son's daily routine and progress. There is also communication book, which tells me about what my son has being doing each day.
Our son is always very happy in the morning to go to Alison's house and is looking forward to the day, as she is regularly taking him to the parks, toddler playgroups, have a special outings planned or visitors too. I often receive cute photos and videos from her about our son's fun activities and this makes me feel really reassured that he is in good hands, as I miss him very much while I am at work.
She was even keen on taking our son to the Speech Therapy session, when I could't. He was struggling little bit with two languages in our bilingual household, so the sessions were very necessary for him. Alison started doing special speech exercises with him on suggestion from the therapist and since then he is much more confident boy in expressing himself in English language.
Alison is very conscientious with kids meals too, with a healthy and well balanced diet.
Her home is always very clean and beautifully designed to the point of "show house", which worried me at the beginning. But when she lead me across her lovely garden towards her garden house I relaxed suddenly, as there it was totally brand new and recently re-designed playhouse for kids with all the fun toys and activity games they can possibly dream off doing and playing with. So there is definitely enough room for all the messy play which kids love so much.
She is also very happy to play football with my son in the garden too.
In general she has become very essential person in our lives, we are feeling very blessed to get to know her.
It's being especially very nice to hear that our son has become almost as the new member of her family, where she has raced three well behaved sons of her own.
I should also mention, that Alison's house settings are perfect in a way, that she is working with her step-daughter Grace age 21, who is her assistant and together they make wonderful team.
I would not hesitate to recommend Alison to any parent, as I know my son is growing into very happy and confident boy partially thanks to the fact that she is her childminder.
There is no better feeling in the world when you know that when you wave goodbye to your child in the morning, you are leaving him in the hands of person you can 100% trust and rely on.
