About Me
I am able to offer drop off and collection at Woodgrange and Godwin from September 23.
I have been a childminder for 9 years and offer competitive rates.
I offer a home from home setting. I go on trips to the local parks i.e. Valentines, West Ham, Plashet and Little Ilford. This gives children the opportunity to learn in the outdoors. They gain confidence and independence whilst enjoying physical activities.Trips to local libraries give children a love of books and literacy.
In my home I have a wide variety of toys, books and craft materials. I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage and use this to plan childrens next steps. I encourage children to make healthy food choices. I work along side with parents and give continuous feedback.
My Experience
My experience is 31 years looking after children in a variety of settings i.e.nurseries, after school clubs, schools etc.

Sharon looked after my daughter for about one year. She is an amazing childminder, always providing new toys and activities for the children. Her home is always very welcoming, clean and organised. She’s very kind and friendly. She would always keep me updated during the day about my daughter. I highly recommend her

Sharon was my sons childminder for 7 years, she made my experience of going back to work after having a child much more easier. My son loved going to Sharon's house and he made many friends there. She has a natural gift with children and makes them happy in her presence. She is a amazing childminder!

Received message asking about babysitting job I had posted. We arranged meeting and all went well was due to start next week. I received text message the day after stating she's taken another job, which I found very unprofessional because if you already committed how can you change your mind next day if you are professional.

I do not understand this reaction.I was not commited as no contract had yet been signed and an existing customer asked to extend her hours 12 hours after the interview so I politely declined.
Used sharon as an emergency childcare provider at short notice.she was very caring and friendly towards my son who is two and daughter who is five.my son had not been left with anyone other than family before and sharon was able to calm him down and he quickly warmed to her.would devo recommend sharon to others as she is very professional and brilliant with children .

One of two of my previous childminders that worked together that I was sorry to leave, very nice down to earth cheerful childminders who clearly love children and all that they have to offer. I am returning to work after a break and unfortunately neither had two vacancies, hoping vacancies will come up soon as my children loved to go there.
