Helen

My Summary

My Experience

Hi, I’m Helen - a warm, caring and reliable mum with 3 years experience looking after children aged 3–6 in their home environment and out and about in the local area. I’ve provided casual childminding for two families in my local area, supporting with things like school or nursery pickups, meal times, creative play, outings and winding down for bed.

I’m also a parent to a teenage son with Autism, ADHD and additional complex needs, which has given me a deep understanding of children’s unique personalities and the importance of patience and calm, responsive care.

I offer a gentle, nurturing approach where children feel safe, happy and heard.
I have a full driving licence with access to my own vehicle. I have positive references available from parents I’ve previously worked with.

I’m currently available for casual, part-time, or school holiday care — please feel free to message me if you'd like to have a chat or arrange a meet-up.
