Overview
I am a qualified and experienced teacher, I have been childminding for 10 years and am passionate about the early years. I have 3 children of my own and I look after my minded children as I would want my own children looking after.
I have a lovely home with a large playroom and garden. I am warm, relaxed and caring and my minded children are part of the family. Our days are varied and exciting, we visit a range of places regularly- Clumber Park, Wheelgate, Rufford, Tiny Town, Sherwood Pines and many more. I believe children need lots of outside play and to be free to explore and investigate. Your child WILL return home with paint, mud, grass, cornflour etc on them! Building confidence and expertise is important, and children are encouraged to follow their ideas and be proud of all they achieve. Building relationships is central to my approach, this is a place where children are loved and respected and where we respect and care for each other. We have time to play at home too, I have a wide variety of activities that are planned with your child’s interests and fascinations in mind. Most importantly though, this is a family home and while your child is here they are a part of my family.
