My Summary
About Me
Hi! I’m Michelle, I live in Leagrave with my 3 children, husband and our cat. I offer home from home care where the child is at the centre of everything I do.
My Experience
I am fully qualified in early years education, first aid trained, up to date on all relevant training and have 15 years experience with my own children. I have worked in nurseries for 5 years and have been a childminder since October 2023.
I am passionate about creating an environment where your child feels safe and settled because I know this will allow them to develop to their full potential.
My curriculum is designed in line with the EYFS and will encourage your child to try new things and hone the skills they already have. We will celebrate many different celebrations throughout the year as well as days such a national pizza day when we will make our own pizzas!
We will spend time in my home from home setting in the newly finished, custom designed childcare area as well as trips out. These trips will include the zoo, gymnastics play group, toddler groups, local parks and woods and swimming.
I am flexible, loving and passionate about childcare.

Michelle is a kind, caring and wholesome person. My son adores her, she is wonderful with him.
Her home has such a warm feel too it. I like the fact that her setting is that of a childminder but she has also incorporated educational activities and information. Including the children learning about the different seasons, events all year round.
Thank you for being a loving caring child minder. It eases my mind whilst I'm at work to know that he is well looked after.
And your updates when I was anxious at first put my mind at ease.
Highly recommend Michelle 😊

Michelle has been looking after our son for a few months now, from when he was 11 months old and we could have had a better experience.
Although our son is only 14 months old now we can tell he really enjoys his time with her and has often come home with crafts that they’ve been working on too.
We can see that Michelle genuinely cares for the children she works with and also their development too, which is really lovely to see.
Couldn’t recommend a childcare setting more.

After an unsuccessful start to a childminding placement I came across Michelle through a mutual friends recommendation. I initially loved the look of her set up and booked a trial for my twins.
They absolutely loved being in her care, and now call her their 'best friend.'
I love receiving updates throughout the day and the photos are lovely to see what they are getting up to.
I would truly recommend Michelle to anyone. She is fantastic.

Michelle has looked after my daughter since she was 1 year old & she treats her like one of her own. Her home setting is very welcoming & Michelle has even taken Ivy on a zoo visit. I enjoy the photo updates I get. Michelle goes over & above to accommodate & be flexible to our childcare requirements. I would highly recommend Michelle
