About Me
I have worked in early years for over 30 years . I am based in Atherton opposite the train station and on a main route to the motorway or Bolton . I live with my husband and our two cats. I have two grown up children who have flown the nest and have a grand daughter .
My passion is early years and this is why I decided to do childminding as I love watching and joining in while children play, learn and develop.
I have a planning in the moment ,natural resources approach and building on my interest in the curiosity, hygge approach and forest school activities all the time.
Don't expect your child to be clean all the time, as I love to set up messy play activities and will be out in the fresh air on a bear hunt or making a den and definitely looking for some mini beasts.
I can't wait to start my journey with your child helping them to grow through play.
Feel free to message me anytime if you have any questions.
I am open 7.30-5.30 Tuesday to Thursday
7.30-5 on Fridays..
My Experience
I have always volunteered in schools and help people out with childcare over the years. I have ran a playgroup and as my children went to school I completed my Nursery nurse training and started working within schools and nurseries . I worked at a primary school which I left after 22 years in Dec.
While at this primary school I gained my BA degree and worked as a HLTA in early years and key stage 1 teaching, planning and carrying out groups and full classes. I have alot of experience with planing in the moment activities and love to follow the children's interests .
I have completed an access to forest schools training, plus completed some courses on hygge and the curiosity approach . These are approaches I wish to develop further .
