About Me

Hi there my name is Donna Spackman and I have worked in childcare for over 14years only having a break to have my own children. In June 2020 I was made redundant from my position as toddler room leader/SENCO at a local private nursery. This unexpected career shake up has given me the desire to set up my own childcare business and become a childminder. I have a ‘Good’ Ofsted grading.
I share my home with my husband of 12 years Jonathan Spackman. He is an Advanced Clinical Practitioner at Chesterfield Royal Hospital and has worked for the trust for 16years. Together we have a son Reuben who is 12 years old and a daughter Esme who is 9 years old. We have two Cocker Spaniel dogs called Bella and Bailey and a dachshund called Rolo. As a family we enjoy a very vibrant busy lifestyle. Our hobbies include taking long walks in the Peak District, family movies nights and games nights.
