About Me

Hello my name is Anna,
I am an Ofsted registered and NNEB trained child carer who is passionate about providing excellent childcare in a safe and caring environment. I live in Lower Morden with my husband and three children (aged 19,16 and 11 in a fun, happy home.

In my childcare setting, children regularly attend playgroups, parks, farms, music & story sessions, libraries and soft play. Children are encouraged to develop their skills and independence through play and interaction with the world around them. It is important to me that each child in my care is able to embrace and enjoy their childhood.

I received GOOD for my last Ofsted inspection in 2019.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Anna

So sad to say goodbye

5 stars

Anna looked after our two children for over a year. Both kids felt like part of the family instantly. My son Aidan suffers with allergies asthma and Anna was excellent with both I never needed to worry. They loved going to Anna’s house as they had wonderful days planned out. Full of activities and outings with art and crafts and trips out
but to name a few. There is excellent space for them to grow in love. We were so sad to say goodbye when we relocated to Ireland.

Childminder jackpot!

5 stars

Anna has been my daughter’s childminder for over 2 years, and we whole heartedly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I honestly feel like we won the childminder jackpot!
She has the kindest, most gentle, motherly nature about her with Ada and the other children and it really does feel like a home from home environment in every way.
Everyday they're exploring new places - whether it’s the farm, different play groups, various parks, paddling pools, soft play, beautiful National Trust gardens and the list goes on! I’m so thankful Ada has been able to experience so many exciting and diverse environments which have helped with her development.
We moved Ada from a private Nursery to Anna in the summer of 2021. I was worried she might not have as much interaction with other children as she would have in Nursery – but once she started with Anna, all those worries went out of the window. Anna regularly meets with other childminders and their children for play dates and for various outings. Ada tells me her daily stories about friends she met up with – as well as friends that Anna also looks after.
When we potty trained Ada, Anna was incredible at continuing the same training we had done at home. She listened to what processes had already worked and followed the same training that we had been doing. This was so comforting for both us and Ada as there was such an easy transition and everything stayed the same.
As a parent, I always feel such a sense of ease with Anna. She’s been incredible with the transition of Ada starting Nursery - I didn’t always have the answers to questions and she’s been so helpful guiding with no judgement.
We really can't recommend Anna enough - you'll be unbelievably lucky to get her if you can!!!

A wonderful childminder in a homely setting

5 stars

I found Anna at a time when my daughter was very unsettled after starting in a private nursery with a revolving door of carers. My daughter clearly needed a bond with the person who was looking after her and she quickly took a liking to Anna, which was such a welcome relief. She also looked after my son for a period of time while he transitioned from the same nursery to pre-school.

Anna offers a lovely, welcoming environment and provides nutritious home-cooked meals for lunch and dinner, something which sadly seems to be becoming less common in childminder settings these days. She is flexible and easy-going, and her communication is excellent. She socialises the children in her care with a variety of play groups and also takes the little ones on fun outings to see the world around them. A few examples of outings my daughter went on included pumpkin picking, RHS Wisley and a National Trust property. She's also just lovely to chat to - handover always included some good banter and was never rushed. I would highly recommend Anna’s services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, reliable and caring childminder.

Anna is simply wonderful!

5 stars

We were so incredibly lucky with finding Anna, she bought so much joy to our little boys days. From visiting the splash pads, visits to RHS Wisley, arts and crafts and play days in the local parks, every day was a new adventure and Anna seems to have a never-ending directory of local places to visit!

Dougie took to Anna instantly. She is extremely warm, welcoming, kind hearted and conscientious, and gave Dougie the confidence to step out from his comfort zone and make new friends. He’s now at nursery and absolutely thriving, and we honestly couldn’t recommend and thank Anna more!

Everything you need and more

5 stars

I can't recommend Anna highly enough; she is everything you would want and need in a childminder and a terrific extension of our family. Anna is flexible, professional, loving, warm and just simply wonderful at what she does.

Children in Anna's care are lucky to have her and we will be forever thankful for the love and care she has provided to our little ones!

Everyday is an adventure with wonderful mum, Anna

5 stars

I couldn't be happier to post a review that captures our privilege and delight at having Anna's sparkle, calm and sheer superwoman powers in our lives. Our boy, 14 months old as I write this, is an infectious little soul, happy, cheeky, animated, curious, daring, affectionate. It’s no coincidence that all these traits have evolved in delicious fashion while he’s been in Anna's care. Their bond is just gorgeous. From pumpkins, playgroups and painting, to ball pits, farm tours and Santa’s grotto, he's experienced so many fun firsts with her and his little pals. Every day she lines up a local adventure. We couldn’t be more excited and proud of the person he’s becoming because of it all.

Anna's ultra-flexible, organised, and thrives in a sort of awe-inspiring carnival of daily adventures that speak to her years of experience. She's the fuss-free, confident, reliable, and fun influence we so wanted to find for our then 6-month-old, when I entered that scary return-to-work phase after an achingly short maternity leave. I felt a connection with her instantly on that first day she invited me to meet her at her home. She's unwittingly helped me giggle, yawn and yelp through many new-mum milestones, with gentle tips and upbeat doorstep chat. That feeling of complete safety and confidence has been bliss. Catch her if you can. Thanks for everything Anna!

Anna Poppins

5 stars

Its a bitter sweet moment writing a review for Anna. She has been part of our lives for 6 years... having looked after my eldest son now 7 since he was 8months old and my second son, who is almost 4 and leaving to go to nursery. She cared for both my babies as if they were her own and I'm not having any more babies now so it feels like the end of an era for our family.

Anna has been instrumental in helping raise my boys into the funny, caring and confident little humans they are today. Particular highlights have been visits to Anna's allotment, the endlessly creative arts and crafts the boys have come home with! thoughtful mothers day/father's day, Easter and Christmas gifts she's helped the children make. Building forts in forests, wading through streams collecting stones and all manner of treasures. Visits to national trusts... the list is endless really. Its been such an adventure for them.

Anna is an exceptional childminder and mother - just the most beautiful, kind and loving soul. I really cannot praise her highly enough. She has been everything a care giver should be and more.

Anna is just brilliant!

5 stars

Anna has been a childminder for my daughter, 4 days a week since she was 9 months old. She has just turned 3 and we feel incredibly lucky to have found Anna!
Knowing that my daughter is going to such a loving, caring and fun environment every day gives us such peace of mind!
She was quite clingy to me when she was little so I was worried about how she would adapt to a childminder but with Anna’s calm and caring demeanour, my daughter settled in, in no time and I could return to work knowing that she was in a loving and safe environment.
Anna is just fantastic, she brings the children on great little adventures to various parks, on play dates and playgroups. She is also the queen of Arts and Crafts, my daughter often comes home with such brilliant little creations.
Anna’s home is lovely and homely with a gorgeous garden where the children have great fun, especially during the warmer months. Anna is such a warm and kind person and my daughter absolutely adores her!
I cannot recommend Anna enough, she is just brilliant and we could not have dreamt of a better person to look after our little girl.

Absolutely brilliant!

5 stars

Anna has looked after my daughter two days a week ever since she was 9 months old, and now she’s 3 it’s very sadly time to move on. Anna has been brilliant - she takes the children on lots of lovely adventures, crafts with them, is patient and caring and my daughter has been so happy there. Anna has always kept us updated with how my daughter is progressing and has been supportive and kind when dealing with tricky toddler phases! It really feels like the end of an era and we’re so lucky to have found her.

So happy that we found Anna!

5 stars

Yesterday was an emotional day for me as it was my 3 year olds official last day with Anna before she starts nursery in September. Anna has looked after our daughter for two years and I can honestly say we could not be more impressed with the childcare Anna has given us! What a wonderful time it’s been for all of us.
From our daughter’s point of view she has felt so happy and had so much fun with Anna and the other children in her care.
From a parent’s point of view we have been able to drop our daughter off without any tears (from me or our child) and get on with work without any worries, knowing how well looked after she is.
I was always excited to hear about the day they’ve had together, whether it’s been a day trip, a playgroup, activities in her home or exploring the outdoors. Also receiving feedback on her development across the early years skills.
Anna is such a warm, friendly, positive and caring person and I definitely recommend her.
It is terrifying looking for someone to look after your young child but when I spoke to Anna on the phone for the first time I felt such a relief. I then met her in her home and instantly knew I had found “The One!”
Thank you Anna for helping us give our daughter a fantastic start! She is very ready for nursery but she will miss you a lot-as will I! We are very grateful!
