My Summary
About Me
Hi, I'm Bethan, an experienced teacher specializing in Early Years education and also a mum to a 3-year-old. My goal is to provide a home-from-home environment where children feel safe, happy, and ready to explore.
I have a deep understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and love helping children develop the skills they need for school readiness. In my care, children will have plenty of time to play in my designated playroom, as well as enjoy the living spaces and garden in my home. I believe in learning through play, so your little one will always have something fun and engaging to do!
I know how important it is for parents to feel comfortable and confident about childcare, which is why I aim to create a nurturing, calm environment where your child can grow, learn, and have fun.
If you’re looking for a friendly, experienced childminder who truly cares about your child’s development, I’d love to hear from you and chat more about how I can support your family!
My Experience
I have over 15 years of experience working with children in a variety of settings, including holiday clubs, tutoring, and in schools. For the past 8 years, I’ve worked as an Infant School Teacher, specializing in Early Years. This role has given me a deep understanding of child development and a real passion for helping children build the foundation they need for learning and growth.
As well as my teaching experience, I’m a parent to a 3-year-old, so I know firsthand how important it is to feel confident in the care and education your child is receiving.
I also have experience working with children with Special Educational Needs (SEN) and am committed to providing inclusive and supportive care for all children.
I’ve completed a range of professional training courses, including Safeguarding, Paediatric First Aid, and Inclusivity and Diversity, so you can be sure your child will be in safe, capable hands.
With my experience, training, and as a parent myself, I aim to provide the best possible care and support for your child, helping them grow, learn, and reach their full potential.
