Fox Hollies Cubs

Fox Hollies Cubs I believe a positive partnership with parents is the key to children thriving in their holistic development.

My name is Eira Byrne and I am an OFSTED registered Childminder working to support parents in ensuring their children receive high quality care in a safe, secure and nurturing environment. I have a spacious environment both indoors and outdoors for children to develop in all areas of their learning. There is a separate area to the playroom for children to sleep in. The garden is a large area of gr

ass and decking which includes a build in sand pit, construction pit, water wall and mud kitchen to name a few. We have a very well behaved dog who has space to be kept away from the children's areas and two Guinea Pigs that the children can help care for. My previous background is offering a safe and secure environment is which children learn how to build healthier relationships with adults and peers. As part of this role it also includes being aware of and helping children to deal with often very damaging traumas. Therefore I have extra training and qualifications linked to many different subjects. I am able to offer support for individuals as required in the Early Years Statutory Framework. I will provide a wide variety of healthy meals and snacks. These can be tailored for individuals to support any specific dietary requirements. Qualifications include:

Alexandra Withnall thank you for choosing us from the start 😍 our final OG has fled the den 🦊. From 9months to nearly the big 4 you’ve been a huge part of fox hollies cubs and to us as a family.
We have watched you grow, throw, scream, laugh and cry…. But you keep on growing and that only means one thing… it’s time to challenge your new teachers in your new pre school. 😂 I hope they have all the answers to your million dollar questions 😂.
Keep being sassy, keep chatting, keep asking 1000 questions a day and go show them who’s the boss!
It’s been a pleasure to have you here❤️ miss you lots! Love from eira, Donna, Bek and your extended cub family ###
