My Summary
About Me
I have been a childminder for over 20 years, during this time I have raised my own four children who are now all grown up with the exception of my lovely teenage daughter Victoria who is now 16 years old.
I have a vast amount of experience with children of all ages including several sets of twins. I also have 12yrs plus working with children with additional needs, which covers a wide variety.
I aim to provide a secure and happy setting for your child which is close to their home setting. We enjoy daily outings covering a variety of places such as the park, zoo, living coasts, woodland walks and exploring, seaside, picnics and other local attractions and activities. Another firm favourite is the occasional train ride to our local beach. Indoors we have a variety of things to keep busy with including role play toys, building, trains and cars, puzzles and books and many more. Children also enjoy just chilling out which is also something they're free to do.
I do offer respite care and am able to take direct payments and voucher schemes.
I have a good relationship with all the families I have worked with over the years, still remaining in touch with some of them.
References are available and where ever
possible flexibility is also offered.
Please feel free to contact me to discuss your needs.
