Hi, my name is Laura and I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder in Shifnal area. I am a mum to a lovely 2 year old boy who will also be joining in with our fun groups, trips and activities.

I offer care to early years. I am in walking distance to three different parks, the library and toddler groups. I have lots of learning resources and a large garden for children to learn and play. I also offer school pick up and drop offs to Shifnal Primary school.

Please message me for more information 😊

Hi Everyone.
Hope you all coping with the summer holidays. Not long to go until they are all back at school and we are missing them all terribly.
We have exciting news within the Shifnal Childminders group. We have 2 new ladies who have recently registered, so look out for the posts with their details. So we wish a warm welcome to Laura Radford and Charlotte Smith. We wish you every success and will enjoy seeing you at all the groups.
A little bit of sad news...Im afraid at the end of this month, Connie will no longer be Childminding. She is off to train as a children's nurse, so we wish her all the best and I am sure we will still see her out and about around Shifnal. Good Luck Connie.

How we work......
Just drop us a message on here with your requirements, If any of us has availability and can help we will send you the details.
We are all very busy at the moment but do our best to help.

Church volunteers cook up new project helping those struggling to make ends meet

Well done to our Kel.....

Church volunteers cook up new project helping those struggling to make ends meet As families struggle to make ends meet as the cost of living rises, one volunteer has come up with an answer.

Hello everyone i just wanted to share with you a new project that a team of us are launching at St.Andrews church.

Our Ethos at church is reaching out together to share God’s amazing love and that’s where the ‘What’s for Tea?’ community cafe comes into play.

We want to join forces with local farmers, butchers and the coop food share to be able to provide low cost nutritional meals for everyone to help ease the the high rising costs that we are all facing!

So every Friday (term time) between 1pm-5pm, come along! You can eat in or there will be an option to takeaway. children’s meals will be discounted.

Ive attached a flyer with our launch date.
I do hope to see you even if just for a brew ☕

Happy Easter to you all, from all of shifnal childminders (Helen, Kelly, Rhiannon, Connie, Hannah, Nicky and Maggie)

Arrr we didn't win this year, but it was our close friends Little Fishes Toddler Group Shifnal and The Big House Holiday Club . In fact, I'm sure some of our little ones did decorations for this tree too, so in a way, we are winners too 😜😜😂. Well done guys, fantastic effort and a well deserved win. 😍🌈🏳️‍🌈

We are very pleased to announce the winner of the Christmas tree festival this year is Little Fishes and the Big House Holiday Club!
The vote was a draw with TJ Hair Salon and a final winner was drawn out of a hat between the two excellent trees.
Congratulations to both trees and a big thank you to everyone who supported us.
Next one in 2023!

Don't forget to go and give our tree a vote....🗳️🎄🎄

Once again all the childminders and their mindees will be coming together to create the most spectacular tree. Don't forget to head down and give us a vote 😜🎄

For the past 12 years I have been offering my childminding services to many of the community’s children. I love my job, and this is why my home is filled to the brim with love. Come and see for yourself what I offer and make up your own mind if i’m right for your family. I also run a toddler group called Little Fishes on a Wednesday morning and St. Andrew’s Church if you ever fancy popping along for a fun filled morning of craft, music, fun and worship.

My aim is to provide a safe, homely and caring environment. I currently offer before and after school care and holiday provision for reception to year 6 but can offer ad hoc care for younger children if needed. I have a spacious playing / living area with toys and activities for all age ranges, leading to a good sized garden with a large variety of play equipment in it. The children i mind feel secure and valued. I arrange activities for the children including: arts and crafts, trips out in the holidays, cooking, games and role play. I also feel it is important for the children to have the opportunity to take part in child led play.

Our wonderful Kelly is doing an online Rhyme Time for all Little Ones. Starting next Wednesday 7th April. Just download the Zoom App and use the PIN number on the flyer to access.

Happy Mothers day all.

An idea that has come via Facebook is for households to paint pictures to put on their windows over the coming weeks - an activity for the children (and adults!) and something to make people smile.

Hi All
Thank you all for your patience.
By following Government Guidelines we can ONLY work for Key workers.
So our spaces will first go to parents on our books that are key workers and then we will open up to other key workers looking for childcare.
So check the list on the Government website and if you think you are eligible for childcare send us a message and we will see if one of us can help you.
Please be aware that we are all keeping our numbers low so places are really limited.
