Goldilocks Childminding Childminder in Buckden. Open all year round but closed on bank holidays and the week between Christmas and new year. Goldilocks Childminding is based in Buckden.

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.

Some of the children enjoyed a visit to the pumpkin patch this week with our friends. They had so much fun from finding their way round the spooky maze, climbing the hay bales, whizzing down slides, football, finding their favourite pumpkin and all the scary funny things around the pumpkin patch.

We are so lucky to have Buckden towers in our village. The children love going there to explore. Each time we go we discover more things and see the changes through the seasons. We have collected leaves, pinecones, and sticks. They love going to see the sheep, ducks and pigs. On our last visit they saw lots of squirrels running around the sheep area collecting food

The setting has been closed for the summer holidays. The children returned yesterday ready for the autumn term. It was lovely to welcome the children back and to hear all about their summer holidays with their families.
Looking forward to see what fun adventures we have this term :-)

I currently have 1 space available on a Wednesday and Thursday.

What a busy end to the term we had. Visits to our local splash park, Pool day at the setting, graduation photos, end of term playgroup party's and fun outdoors in the woodlands. 2 children graduated from the setting and now starting Primary school. We will miss them lots but know they are ready for their next adventure. Hope you both have an amazing time at school :-)
