I know that choosing any type of childcare is a very important milestone in your child‛s (and your) life. To ensure a positive start, you and your child will need the support and encouragement that as a qualified child-minder I believe I can provide.

This could be the first time your child has been with other children, adults, or the first time they have been apart from you on a regular basis. Some children adapt to this very quickly, others take a little longer. Either situation is perfectly normal. I realise that you are entrusting me with the care of your child, and I place the children’s safety, welfare and development at the top of my priorities. I can offer a secure, happy and stimulating environment where independence, self-confidence, consideration for others and good manners are encouraged.

I aim to:

  • Provide a happy, stimulating environment.
  • Encourage  all- round development through the provision of appropriate learning opportunities
  • Ensure the safety of the children in my care
  • Ensure each family and child has a personalised “person centred” approach as I recognise each individual is different and to encourage participation from all children.
  • Achieve the desirable outcomes of EYFS (Early years Foundation Stage) curriculum applicable
  • Identify and assess special educational needs, and to make appropriate provision
  • Work with parents.  I am aware that partnership with parents is key.  You are your child’s primary educator and main carer and as such you know the most about your child. A good relationship will value and respect what goes on at home and actively support you in developing a rich home learning experience for your children that supports and extends their learning.
