| I am an registered childminder with over 15 years experience working with children. I have previously worked as a nursery nurse and nanny I have a son who was born in May 2014 and a son who was born in December 2018 I decided to become a childminder to combine being with my children everyday and continuing with a job I love. I enjoy helping children to learn and develop to the best of their ability, and feel proud to be a part of their lives. I believe that children learn best through play, so I try to make activities fun. I am a very caring, reliable and trustworthy person.

I have all the necessary certification. I thoroughly enjoy working with children and this career allows me to spend as much time with my own children as possible whilst caring for the children of other hard working parents. I have a large home and I reinforce the principal of a happy home environment, this is not a school, this is not a nursery, this is a home from home, and I look forward to meeting new children/parents and welcoming them to join this home from home.
