My Summary
Warm & Loving Home Based Setting
About Me
Little Learners Childminding is a warm and caring home from home for children. I am an Ofsted rated "Good" childminder with 6 years experience, and mother to 2 wonderful children. My son is 7 and my daughter is 12. We have a welcoming home full of fun toys and educational resources. We spend our time learning through play, following the EYFS. The children all enjoy time spend in my large garden, as well as being out and about at local playgroups soft play, parks and the library. I currently offer pick up and drop offs at Watchlytes school.
I have had full safeguarding training, completed a level 3 childcare course, hold full first aid and food hygyine certificates and am committed to on going learning, keeping up to date with any relevant training.
I pride myself on treating children with the love and care i would wish for my own children. I work with a heavy emphasis on communication, language development and supporting children to become resiliant, strong, independent and school ready.
My Experience
I have cared for children for 6 years as a childminder, regularly undertaking professional development training, keeping up to date with changes to the EYFS and am very proud to be OFSTED rated Good.
