My Summary
About Me
Hi, I live with my husband and daughter in Forest Town and have been an Ofsted registered childminder for over twelve years. I have a "good" rating from Ofsted and provide early years funded places for 2, 3 and 4 year olds.
I love being around children and I actively participate in children's play and encourage imaginative thinking. I believe in children learning by leading their own play as well as taking part in play guided by myself.
My aim is that before a child leaves my setting they have become more confident and self assured individuals who have learned to be independent and believe in themselves and their abilities.
All children are given the chance to thrive in a stimulating and motivated environment.
My Experience
I have looked after children of all ages and plan a wide and varied curriculum covering all seven areas of learning, specific to each child's needs and characteristics of learning.
We frequently visit local parks including Rufford, Sherwood Forest, Sherwood Pines, Vicar water and many more. We attend library sessions, stay and play sessions and toddler groups on a regular basis and also visit soft play areas.
Song and story time are included every day along with arts and crafts, construction play, musical instruments, physical play, small world play, role play, creative play, ict and signing. We also do baking, cooking and messy play on a regular basis.
I provide a wide range of toys for all ages both indoors and out. I want children to feel happy and valued in my setting and feel free to explore in a safe and caring environment.
My policies and procedures cover all aspects of childcare including 'safeguarding children' and 'health and safety'. I undertake risk assessments and explore different religions and cultures through festivals, internet, role play, books and songs.
All document can be viewed on initial visit along with my dbs certificate, Ofsted registration and report, driving licence, first aid certificate and evidence of qualifications and training.
