Little Gems Childcare

Little Gems Childcare My name is Gemma. I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder based in Dawlish. I follow the children's interest to make learning fun and engaging.

Little Gems is a happy, caring & safe childcare setting with a home from home environment :) I carefully plan a range of activities which cater for all individual needs to ensure that all children in my care meet the relevant developmental milestones through play. The children are at the heart of everything we do.
