Goodbye Wimbish, Hello Clitheroe!
Most of the boxes have been unpacked and put away and our new house is starting to feel like home.
I just wanted to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to all my previous families. Without your kind words, encouragement and support over the last 8 months I’m sure starting up as a Childminder and this move wouldn’t of gone as smoothly so Thankyou!!!! You will all be greatly missed and I hope you keep in touch to let me know how L,E&P get on in their new childcare x

A bit late this month as we have been saying goodbye to some special friends. July has been a wonderful month with weather to match.

Far up in the deep blue sky,
Great white clouds are floating by;
All the world is dressed in green;
Many happy birds are seen,
Roses bright and sunshine clear
Show that lovely June is here.

May is the month of sunshine and flowers. Birds in their nests and one or two showers. Games to play and kites to fly.
Or just looking at the sky.
We could spend a year this way, if the year were made of May.

🌼Making pressed flower bookmarks
🌿Growing poppies

April changes her sweet mind every other second.
With her many moods and minds, nothing can be reckoned.
I always carry an umbrella, it serves for rain and sun!
I take my boots and out I go to share in April’s fun.

🌼Being a woodland spotter.

March wind is a jolly fellow;
He likes to joke and play.
He turns umbrellas inside out
And blows men's hats away.
He calls the p***y willows
And whispers in each ear,
"Wake up you lazy little seeds;
Don't you know that spring is here?"

*FREE CHILDCARE*
Cervical test screenings (smears) are at an all time low, for whatever reason women are choosing not to go. Yes it’s not pleasant, yes it can be uncomfortable and undignified but so is cancer.
I feel it’s very important us women get checked out and taking a child can sometimes be embarrassing or impractical.
Dandelion Childminding is offering to provide a one off session of 1 hour of FREE childcare on a Friday afternoon so you can leave your child in a safe environment and attend your appointment.
Message me to discuss and arrange a time when I have availability.
GET YOUR SMEARS BOOKED A CHILD NEEDS THEIR MOTHER!!
It’s finally official!! After 29 long long weeks I can now say I’m an Ofsted registered childminder. 🥳🥳
