About Me
Hello
My name is Flavia Goncalves,
I am Portuguese, lived in United Kingdom for almost 12 years.
Been married for 3 years and 12 years together.
I have 3 children of my own, 1 girl 11 years old, 1 boy 8 years old and a newborn boy almost 1 year old.
I have a love of children and a commitment to provide a high standard of childcare. I have patience and a good sense of humour. As I have 3 children it’s more easier for me to have children of diverse age ranges. I will provide a safe and secure child-centred physical environment, a warm, caring, loving and trusting setting for children where they can develop friendships and feel protected and secure.
I have a lovely house with a good size garden, where children can play and explore. Children in my care are given the opportunity to become confident little individuals, who, by the time they leave for nursery or school, are ready for the next stage in their learning.
I take children from newborns to 8 years old.
I have :
- DBS check,
- 12 Hour Paediatric First Aid course
- Online Safety in Early Years
- Safeguarding Children Level 1, 2 and 3
- Level 2 Food Safety and Hygiene for Early Years Settings
- Supporting Children’s Emotional Well-being
- Public Liability Insurance with childcare.co.uk
- ADHD Awareness
- Autism Awareness
- The Prevent Duty
- Understanding Asthma
- Ofsted registered
- Safeguarding Update June 2024
- Communication and Language for 2024
- Level 3 Safeguarding Children 2024
I don’t do pick ups or drop off unfortunately as I don’t drive yet, but unless is the same school as my children that is Springfield Primary School I don’t mind to pick them up and drop off of this school.
If it’s something that you are interested in don’t hesitate in contact me.
Thanks

Wow ... I was really worried when I was looking for the childminder as this was our first time when we really need to send our 5 year old son and 4 year old daughter to the childminder. Then I found Flavia here, She is such an amazing childminder, very kind lady. She looked after my children like her own. I couldn't recommend Flavia anymore! She look after the kids so well and my son and daughter enjoyed everyday with them, there days are filled with activities and fun. My daughter especially enjoyed arts and crafts, my son loved the superhero costumes, toys. She always came back home with some new artwork and loads of stories of their entire day. She is an amazing mum of 3, but her children are so friendly and way too caring. It has made me have such a amazing experience with childminders, she is great. I will use her whenever I need in future and would 100% recommend her to anyone who want safe environment for their children. Thank you for looking after Adam and Sophia. I will forever be grateful for you being such a wonderful part of their life. She is registered childminder and it gave me so much peace.

I honestly can’t praise her enough. My little one has taken to her exceptionally well - he’s very much settled and content and it’s largely to do with how Flavia has welcomed him, excels him, develops him and loves him like her own. This is truly the home from home feel that I hoped for. Highly recommend her and her setting.

My son had fun been with her, she took really good care of him, she was very caring , loving and seems to know so much about my son within a short period of getting to know him, my mind was alway at peace knowing that my son was in great hands and she went extra miles picking him up from school. I will recommend her anywhere as she is a great childminder.

Thank you so much 🥰
My daughter fell in love with Flavia since the first moment she stepped inside. Flavia is very caring, loving, and attentive person.She for sure makes children feel like home if not better as on multiple occasions my daughter didn't want to leave 😃 I strongly recommend her for anyone looking for a perfect childminder for your little ones.
