We live In A lovely 4 bedroom house conversion we use our lounge mainly but also have a second room we use for sensory/arts and crafts.
Children enjoy meal time in our large kitchen where I prepare meals from our Five week menu with pictures that I provide parents with.
We also have a lovely enclosed garden for outside play, we had a garden makeover in June 2023 to provide a soft play area and much more for our outdoor play and activities.
I have a full clean driving licence.
I drive a 7 seated car with insurance for childcare.
All our children have attended Eliot Bank primary school in foresthill,even though our children are not at primary school age I have maintained a close relationship with staff at Eliot bank and still attend fairs and activities held there.
I am not currently available for drop off and pick ups from Eliot Bank primary school or any other as I want to focus around the early years age group.

My Experience
I have many years experience caring for children I have 4 children of my own ages 24,19,18 and 12 years old and many nieces and nephews and six God children .
I have been registered/childminding for 17 years.
I generally care for little ones from 9 months old until they move on to Reception with their younger sibling taking their place.
Some I have cared for from early years to them starting secondary school.
Our home is a home from home and little ones form great relationships with our children/family as well as my other mindees.
As My spaces are filled mainly by referrals from families in my care or the council I have references on file for parents to read at setting visits.

Thank you for allowing me to look after your little J
He is going to be missed very much x
Auntie Ro looked after our little boy from 6 months - 3 years.
As it was our first child we were understandably a little anxious about the transition of going back to work but Ro created a home away from home for our little one.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Ro is professional, patient, caring, fun and always goes the extra mile with activities, learning, crafts and home cooked delicious meals. Her extensive knowledge and passion for childcare is evident and we found her a great support as first time parents.
Our little one always looked forward to going and bonded with Ro and her whole family.
We feel lucky to have found Ro she’s been truly a blessing!

Thank you Mel
It has been an honour looking after L he has become part of the family
L is the most caring loving little boy.
We are going to miss him so much,my children comment everyday that they notice the difference without L being here.
I know he will bring fun and laughter to his new childminder and new little friends he will make.
We are also going to miss you and Dad it has been lovely getting to know you both and it’s not good bye it’s see you soon

Row started looking after our daughter when she had just turned one. As a first time mum I was a bit anxious about leaving my baby with someone else, and my daughter was also quite clingy to me and didn't generally warm to people quickly! However, she loved Row straight away and settled quickly there. She was always happy and I couldn't fault Row for her caring nature - I still haven't seen my daughter as comfortable with anyone who isn't her parent! I highly recommend Row as a childminder.
