I have been a childminder for more than 20 years, during this time I have gained a wealth of learning and understanding. I keep myself up to date and undertake training when I can. I have 2 grown up children. I live in a spacious house in a small village called Cowling. I am very lucky to be surrounded by rolling hills and countryside. I have 2 cats called Cairo and Crystal. I believe any interaction with children, I have lots of things for children in my care to do to assist with their learning. I will do my utmost to encourage children to play and learn whether it be with myself or other children. I have a car and I’m happy to facilitate pick ups and drop offs if feasible. I offer a varied diet and nutrition options to the children I car for. In my spare time, I like to visit family and friends, walking and I enjoy a meal out.
I am on a main bus route, with the nearest bus stop only a short walk away. There is parking available where I live.
I work with my local Primary and preschool settings.
Monday to Friday 7am to 6pm
I offer school picks ups from my local village school and pre-school. I care for children from birth to secondary school. I accept Early Years Funding and Child care Vouchers.
I run an inclusive setting. I have accessible parks and paly areas. I am able to offer extra hours if discussed in advance with parents/carers.
