About Me
Hello there, my name is Jess and I am a fully qualified registered childminder based in the Leeds, Moortown / Alwoodley areas. I am originally a qualified criminal lawyer but after having my two wonderful children I decided to go into childcare to nurture their learning needs. I have a daughter and two sons. I have many years’ experience volunteering, teaching children and caring for them through home schooling, church schools and Adventurers group also known as Scouts to some.From 2021, my husband joined me as a co-childminder and we now childmind together. The children love having a positive male figure and have so much fun role playing and going on outtings with Lukasz.We both hold certificates for Paediatrics First Aid, Early Years Foundation Stage Training, Safeguarding, Managing Behaviour and more.My Setting
We live in a semi-detached 4 bed house with a side extension, we have a long double lounge measuring approx. 30 square meters with a tree house in it, we call this room the play room which goes straight into the garden using double sliding doors. In our garden we have a covered area with tiles on the floor then it runs into the grassy area. We pride ourselves in having a clean safe environment for the children. We have a large playroom which is dedicated to playing and learning. We also have an enclosed garden for the children to explore, investigate and learn. The children will have use of the following rooms: - Playroom – This is the main playroom which has all the toys, books and other exciting discoveries.
- Living room – is a spare room if needed, normally out SEN children occasionally require it to quietly read and play for a short while with me or Lukasz.
- Kitchen – This is where all the arts and crafts take place as well as baking lots of lovely treats.
- Garden – The children will have lots of time to play outside in the garden. We will have lots of outdoor games and toys, a play house, tree house sand and water play and will be growing our own vegetables.
- Downstairs sleep room– There is space for children that will require it during the day. There are 2 travel cots for the younger children.
