About Me

I am a registered childminder with early years Northern Health & Social Care Trust to mind the total of 6 children under age of 12 and maximum of 3 children under the compulsory school age ( with no more than one under one year). I am a member of NICMA (Northern Ireland Child Minding Association) - the childminding association which is the professional membership body for registered childminders.



I am 29years old and I’ve always had a passion for working with children in a home setting. Myself & partner live in our rented home with our 2year old son and I have gained written permission from the Landlord to run my childminding business. I have numerous nieces and nephews that I have cared for and looked after over the years.



Information about activities provided for children I provide a range of activities both indoor and outdoor to suit a wide age range. Activities are provided to suit the age and stage of each child’s development. Activities include: singing and dancing, reading/story time, arts and crafts, baking, Lego, playdough, colouring, story time, bored games, farm sets, car sets, musical instruments, limitless toys, water play, ride on toys, ball games, slide, Outdoor activities such as out walking and looking around and seeing changes of the different seasons e.g. leaf hunting/picking.

I like to provide all children with games and activities to help them learn and develop their language, emotions, creativity, and social skills.
