My Summary
About Me
Hi! I'm Vikki and I have recently moved to Bishops Lydeard with my husband Steve and two children Jake (17) and Ellie (15). Lexie, our cockapoo, joined us in August 2019.
Offering a home from home environment ensures for a safe, stimulating and loving environment, in which independence and a willingness to 'have a go' is encouraged and applauded. I firmly believe that children learn most, and best, through first hand experience, rich communication and play. I offer a wide range of opportunities to support children in their personal development. And I love watching childrens' interests and minds expand and grow.
The required paper systems are in place, which you're more than welcome to look at.
What next? I would advise that we arrange a mutually agreeable time for you to visit so you can take a look, run through questions and concerns that you may have and talk through how we can work together to support your child in the best possible way.
My Experience
Having spent 16 years as a primary school teacher I do value children as individuals; embracing a child centered approach to planning, learning and development.
I have been working as a registered childminder since 2012 and genuinely enjoy spending time, practicing skills and sharing countless experiences with the children who attend my setting, both indoors and out.
Finally, in helping to raise my stepchildren, I can appreciate the need for fairness, consistency and honest communication when being entrusted with someone else's child.
