My Summary
About Me
I have worked with children for many years, in nursery environments and within families. I have always enjoyed working with children. I have a son who is 13 years old.
I am registered with Ofsted and able to offer high quality care for children from Birth to 11 years old in my home. I have a BTEC National Diploma in Childhood Studies and have recently completed my Foundation Degree in Early Childhood.
To ensure continuity for the children, I have two assistants who works with me full time.
I can provide care from 08:00 – 17:45 Monday to Thursday and Fridays 08:00-16:30 48 weeks of the year. I can be flexible with the hours as am understanding that families have different commitments.
As I live very close to the park, the children have regular opportunities to come on nature walks, feed the ducks and use the park. My home has an enclosed garden area, where the children have regular opportunities to play.
Since beginning Little Stars childminding, I have received two Ofsted inspections, the first took place in January 2012. On this occasion I received a good in all areas and the second in July 2015 where i recieved outstanding.
I realise the importance of my roles and responsibilities, so that the children can learn and have fun. One of my aims is to ensure a homely environment and hopefully a place where children will want to come back again and again.
