My Summary
About Me
**SPACES AVAILABLE FROM 6th JANUARY 2025 **?
Hello,
My name is Lisa and I am an Ofsted registered childminder and mom to two daughters and a dog called zidane. I am from South Africa but have been living in the UK since 2006.
I have just had my first Ofsted inspection and have received a Good.
I am a very affectionate, understanding and giving person. I try to be as flexible and accommodating as possible so please feel free to contact me with your needs.
I love getting involved with the children in all of the daily activities we do and take great pride in seeing them grow and flourish into independant confident individuals.
I believe that every child is special and that they all deserve to be cared for in a safe, healthy, secure and loving environment. I want every parent to feel happy in the knowledge that while they are working their precious little ones have been left in such an environment where they can continue to develop and grow into happy, content and confident individuals.
I provide a 'home away from home' environment and only take on a few children. I like to keep my setting small and personal which gives me the ability to offer more attention and care to each child
Whilst your child is under my care I provide a range of activities (fully integrated Early Years Foundation Stage framework) to enable the children to develop and learn through play in a caring, supportive and happy environment.
I have a lovely playroom which is full of books, educational toys and other toys that leads onto a large garden which we use regularly and has lots of play equipment including a trampoline.
We go to parks, toddler groups, the library, rhyme time, go on nature walks, play dates and we go to great places like the zoo and jimmy's farm, which is a favourite with all the kids.
We play with Playdough, sand and water. We get messy with water, shaving foam and mud. We look at books. We learn about different people and cultures. We learn to recognise letters and numbers and words. We copy the stories in our play and best of all we love to cuddle up together and listen to stories, We paint, draw, pretend to write, cut out and glue. We make collages and prints. We learn to use scissors and to be creative. We sing songs and make music, we listen to music from different countries, we dance and learn new songs. We make friends and learn about sharing, taking turns and respecting people, we learn to mix with children who may be older or younger than us. We learn about the rules and how to say "Sorry" if we upset someone.
I also have a network of childminder and mummy friends who I meet up with regularly, which is great as the children form relationships with others their own age.

Lisa is so caring and friendly, really put our minds at ease with putting our first child in childcare. Excellent level of care from day one, keeps us updated with pictures throughout the day, we never have to worry. We also love that the children aren’t stuck indoors all day they are always out doing something fun!

Lisa has been looking after my eldest son on and off now for the past 4 years and has recently started looking after my 1 year old.
She provides an excellent childcare service so much so that my little ones absolutely love going to hers.
I can honestly say I feel completely comfortable and trustworthy of Lisa looking after my two, and I know I can always rely on her to do a great job. She has a great range of different toys for the children and does fun, educational activities with them.
I would highly recommend Lisa as a childminder for all the above reasons and because she really makes an effort to build a good relationship with myself as well as my children.

Lisa has looked after my daughter for 2 years and wha a brilliant two years they have been. From the moment my daughter joined Lisa, she has been happy and Lisa has done nothing but care and love my child like she wasn’t her own.
Eva (my daughter) has grown and developed so much since 2017 when she first started with Lisa, her speech and the language that she uses has developed wonderfully, her laughter and enjoyment with different things that they do is amazing and her social skills have developed brilliantly.
Working full time is extremely difficult when it comes to milestones, but Lisa always keeps my informed of anything new Eva does and also helps her through milestones such as potty training! I don’t think I could have got through that without her.
Lisa provides a warm caring environment which the children can play happily in and continue to develop and grow, there are lots of activities for the children to do as well s trips they take out. I have never seen a child not having fun when they are with Lisa. I could not recommend her any more, she is FANTASTIC!! and to Eva she is the queen!!
