My Summary
About Me
I am married with two grown up sons.I have enjoyed childminding for the last 8 years. I have a large bright playroom full of toys and resources to suit the different ages of the children that I look after. We do lots of painting and glueing, playdough,baking etc.. Our days are always busy and full of fun. We attend local playgroups, soft play, libraries as well as visiting parks and other places that are of interest to the children. I am fully registered and a member of the Scottish Childminding Association. I have a large enclosed garden well equipped to allow the children to have fresh air and outdoor fun.
My last inspection report is available to read online. I offer a friendly,safe and home environment. I meet the needs of all children in my care and work in partnership with all parents.
My Experience
I previously worked in a private nursery for 6 years where I worked with babies from 6 months to pre-school where I learnt to do lots of arts and crafts as well as lots of fun things to do with the children.
My Qualifications
I qualified up to SVQ LEVEL 3 in Childcare And Education whilst working in a private nursery. I have an updated First Aid certificate in Babies & Children.I have attended various training courses run by the Scottish Childiminding Association and continue to do so to enable me to be able to provide a good service.

Pauline looked after our 15 month old boy Evan during the COVID 19 pandemic due to lack of childcare facilities. He absolutely loved going to Pauline`s house and she was always welcoming when my partner and I collected Evan.
It was a challenging time to be looking after children during the pandemic as many local amenities, such as libraries and play groups, were closed but Pauline always found something interesting for Evan to do. She has excellent organisational skills and Evan enjoyed playing arts and crafts with her, building blocks, playing in the garden and going for walks to local parks and the Portobello beach.
Pauline is very thoughtful and caring and has a personal touch with children. She has a good understanding of the needs and abilities of children and is warm, thoughtful, nurturing and energetic. I would definitely recommend Pauline, she`s such a lovely person and made Evan feel very welcome in her home. I`m sure a child of any age would enjoy spending time with her and playing in her house equipped with toys and games. I wouldn`t hesitate to contact Pauline in the future should our childcare arrangements change.
