About Me

I'm a mum of two living in Gorgie in Edinburgh. I pick up from Balgreen and Roseburn primaries. I love being out and about in local parks. My favourite activities are baking with the children, collecting leaves from a walk then washing them and making artwork, also building things. I focus on flexibility for parents/carers and family values for the children. The DBS check is the English version of PVG check which I have so I've been fully checked by the Care Inspectorate.

Sylvia looked after our daughter when she was 2. We were so happy with the experience. Sylvia is kind and consistent with children and teaches them great life skills. I always felt like our daughter Jessie was completely safe when she was there. Sylvia is professional and reliable and takes great care to create a lovely experience for the children. Our daughter adored Sylvia and really loved going for trips out and about, playing in the local playgroup or relaxing in Sylvia's home. She also provided really nice homemade food. I highly recommend Sylvia for looking after anyone's children.

Sylvia is a fantastic childminder who has a thoroughly professional approach to childcare and a warm and welcoming manner. Our girls loved being part of her family and were so sad to have to leave when they went to school. Sylvia always had inventive, stimulating and fun activities lined up whether it was making magic wands, baking carrot cake or going on adventures by the river. She is firm but caring and full of ideas and energy. One in a million!
