About Me
Charlene's Childcare is a childminding service that offers quality and flexible care to children from 9 months to 8 years old. We are located in Tottenham, N17, walking distance from White Hart Lane Station and local primary schools; Devonshire Hill Nursery & Primary School and St Francis De Sales Primary School.
In our home, we have converted part of our living room solely into a stimulating and spacious enabling learning environment.
Inside our home, we have a dedicated playroom and spacious garden where our children partake in child-led or group activities. The playroom is airy and bright and well equipped to provide a safe and stimulating environment that encourages each child to grow into a confident, independent, and sociable young person.
Our curriculum is based on the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and inspired by different educational approaches such as: Montessori and the Curiosity Approach.
Our curriculum also covers emerging interests of both indoor and outdoor learning environments and the experience. As childminders, our ratios are small, which allows for a homely and one to one approach to child’s care and development.
At Charlene’s Childcare, we strive to create a safe, secure, and enabling environment in which each child has the opportunity to develop to their full potential.
My Experience
Background
I have over 10 years of experience working with children, young adults, and the elderly. I am a caring and nurturing individual with a very passionate interest in childcare and development and health & social care.
I have worked various settings, from being a nursery assistant to a school meal supervisory assistant to a classroom assistant. I also gained extensive experience in children care homes and primary schools in Tottenham. With the immense experience and first-hand knowledge I gained over the years, this prompted me to pursue a career in home childcare; a profession in childminding where I believe I can offer the best level of care and support for children.
I have studied health and social care at the University of Bedfordshire and also have certificates in childcare, child education, outdoor play, child neglect awareness and autism awareness, and many more.
I am registered by an OFSTED-Registered Childminding agency. I have paediatric first aid training, safeguarding, and food hygiene certification.
