My name is Pauline; I live with my husband and son and use my home as my setting. I enjoy national trust walks and a good chat with a coffee. I’m passionate about creating a nurturing environment where little ones can enjoy and learn. With a background of 20 years in childminding, I have vast experience with various ages and needs.

???? *Creativity: * Unleash your child's inner artist! Every day, expect your child to explore my dedicated space for crafts, painting, and imaginative play. Every masterpiece gets sent home in their art folder, which you can add to, of course!

???? *Stories at circle time* Expect your child to dive into stories during circle time, which always includes activities related to text, using different EYFS areas of learning.  My cosy reading nook is filled with various age-appropriate books to spark a love for reading and enhance language skills.

????‍♀️ *Active Playtime: * My play area is equipped with toys that encourage physical activity, coordination, and social skills. From building blocks to mini obstacle courses, there's always an adventure waiting.

???? *Outdoor Exploration: * Nature walks are our favourite pastime. We have a secure outdoor space where children can explore and play. We enjoy visiting the local ducks and exploring the local parks.

????‍???? *Learning Through Play: * Education is woven into every activity. Whether counting with building blocks or discovering science through simple experiments, learning is a hands-on, fun experience.

What to Expect:

???? *Warm Welcome: * Your child will be greeted with a big smile and a stimulating set-up. I will keep you updated with voice notes, videos, and pictures of your child throughout the day, including their own book folder with specially chosen books changed weekly.

???? *Small Group Setting: * To ensure personalised attention, I keep my setting small. This allows for stronger bonds between children and promotes a sense of security.

???? *Continuous Learning: * I provide a supportive environment for your child's developmental milestones, always adapting to their unique needs and interests and following the EYFS statutory framework.

I look forward to meeting you, Pauline????
