My Summary
About Me
My name is Pam, and I live with my 2 daughters, aged 12 and 11, in the Bat and Ball area of Sevenoaks.
We live in a large, bright, ground floor flat with a garden which is partly undercover so children can access it in all weather. There is a park/playground just 2 minutes down the road.
We like to get out and about as much as possible and have adventures. We attend local toddler groups and local library activities, etc.
We are a busy, happy setting and I work with two registered assistants. The children therefore have a few more friends to play with, whilst also still receiving lots of one to one attention.
We specialise in early years and care for children from 0- 4 years. Our opening hours are 7.30am until 5pm.
We offer term time contracts only.
We currently have a space available from September 2025 on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

Below are the latest reviews for Pam. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Pamela has been caring for our 2 children for 8 months and is a truly wonderful childminder. She is incredibly caring and the children adore her. Their days are full of activities and Pamela has tailored these to match the children's likes and preferred learning styles. The children run in happily on drop off, which is always a relief, and are often much harder to convince to leave at the end of the day.
Pamela keeps us nicely updated with the children's progress and has been very flexible when we've needed additional hours. We would (and have) highly recommend her.
