About Me

Hi my name is Claire Taylor and my business Cheeky Monkeys Childminding which has been established in the Hampton area of Peterborough since August 2007 when I became an Ofsted registered childminder. I live opposite the playing fields in Hampton Hargate with my two teenage children. My setting is based in our town house where in August 2011 we converted our garage in to a purpose built childminding playroom. We have a small garden and access to lots of local green spaces. I am educated to Masters level.

My Experience

I was graded GOOD in all areas by Ofsted at my inspection in January 2019.

I am a member of PACEY the Professional Association for Childcare and Early Years and am a member of the Quality Assured Peterborough Childminding Network through which I became an Accredited childminder so that I am able to accept the funding for 2, 3 and 4 year olds within my setting.

I have some experience of SEN.

I believe that it is important to look at each and every child's needs individually so that the care and education I provide suits the needs of that child. My setting is very much one that is led by the children so that I can provide them with experiences that will interest them and further their development. We spend a proportion of each day out and about whether that be in the garden or taking in the scenery in Hampton and Peterborough.

My Qualifications

I have completed my ICP, Paediatric first aid, and food hygiene for childminding. I have also completed the Quality Assurance so that I could be come a member of the Peterborough Childminding Network and in April 2009 I became an Accredited Childminder able to provide funded care for 2, 3 and 4 year olds.

As a Peterborough childminder I also get access to lots of training provided by the Early Years Team at PCC.
*Safeguarding Children – An introduction to Child Protection Training for Early Years & Child Care Practitioners
*Birth to Three Matters
*Documentation – Recording, Reporting & Complaints
*Keeping Children Healthy & Safe
*Personal Development for Childminders
*Meeting the Requirements of EYFS and the Ofsted Process
*EYFS Workshops
*Creating an Environment that Encourages Positive Behaviour
*Jabadao – Developmental Movement Play
*Observation with a Purpose Birth to Five
*Knowledge and Understanding of the World
*Heuristic Play
*Understanding Cultural Aspects of the EYFS
*Fun & Games from around the World
*Making the Most of Outdoor Play
*Forest Awareness Day
*Vulnerable Children
are just some of the courses I have attended.

In July 2011 I completed the Certificate In Childcare Practice which is a level 4 qualification with The Open University. I undertook this qualification as I feel it is important to continually develop my education so that I can ensure that I am able to provide the best level of care and education for your child.
