I live with my husband Dan our son Finley who was born in February 2015 our son Dylan who was born February 2017 and a cat called Tabby. I am a qualified nursery nurse with an NVQ Level 3 in childcare and education and I have been working with children for over 14 years. I have experience with ages from newborn to teenagers,
I spent around 7 years working in schools and nurseries and was a pre school teacher for some of this time. I have been working as a nanny for 5 years working with many families and children. Having worked with many families I understand what an emotional roller coaster ride it can be finding the right child care for your little ones. I aim to provide a safe and welcoming home from home setting for your children. I will be working with the Early years foundation stage and children will be learning through play and the activities I set out for them. In the setting children have access to their own playroom full of toys. We have an enclosed private garden and a play space indoors which is bright, colourful and full of toys! The children will have use of the following rooms:
Play space – This is the main playroom which has all the toys, books and other exciting things. Living room – Children will have use of the TV at lunch for quiet time if they are not sleeping and for reading books on the rug. Kitchen – This is where all the arts and crafts take place as well as baking lots of lovely things. Garden – The children will have lots of time to play outside in the garden. There is a dedicated gated area of the garden for messy play such as sand pit, water wall, mud kitchen and vegetable growing area. Bedroom/spare room – There is space for any children that will require it during the day. There is a travel cot for the younger children and airbeds for the older children who require sleep, and also children’s sleeping bags. Goldilocks Childminding looks forward to hearing from you soon.
