About Me
Hi parents I’m Louisa, a caring patient person with a genuine passion for working with children. I am dedicated and passionate about providing a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for children.
At Care4Cubs, I offer high-quality, home-based childcare where little ones can learn, play, and grow in a warm, family-like setting. As a parent myself of a toddler I always loved nurturing young minds, I understand how important it is to provide a safe, loving, and stimulating environment where children feel happy and secure. I risk access my setting every day, updating and changing my selection of toys.
I believe in learning through play, encouraging creativity, and helping children develop important social and life skills. Whether it’s exploring nature, reading stories, or engaging in arts and crafts, I strive to make everyday fun and educational. I take pride in creating a warm, home-like atmosphere where every child is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential. Each child is unique and will have a tailored learning plan to support them in learning and development with accordance to the EYFS guidelines. I undertake continuing professional development through current training to keep up to date.
I am committed to making each child’s time at Care4Cubs a positive and enriching experience. By helping little ones take their first steps or building confidence and preparing them for school. I take great pride in supporting their development in a loving and home-like setting and been part of a child’s journey and helping them grow into confident, happy individuals.
