Cheadle Hulme Childminding

This is the ultimate job satisfaction for myself, working with this family for over the last 10 years. I’ve been at the christenings, their parents wedding, birthday parties and more. To look after and care for someone else’s children is a privilege to be like part of the family is a blessing. I often sit and wonder what all the children that have passed through my doors will become and what their grown up lifes will look like.
Being part of those early years is amazing and to nurture each individual child’s character is lovely to observe. They may be learning everyday but if I’m honest they teach me so many things too along the way. Little people, big futures 💛

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas & New Year- just want to say a huge thank you to all the parents. I was spoiled again this Christmas, really don’t expect gifts but it’s so lovely to feel so valued. Here’s to another year with my sidekicks ❤️ I’ll pop some of these bottles open to celebrate 10 years of Cheadle Hulme Childminding this year ❤️

Well that’s it for this year….. we’ve had a few little ones leave to go to school and we’ve had a few new starters that have settled in beautifully. Can’t wait to see what mini adventures 2025 bring ❤️
Want to thank all the parents for being amazing to work with and letting me help secure those early years goals with their children.
Have a lovely Christmas wherever and with whomever you spend it with -See you all in January (w/c 6th January).
Lots of love, Marie. Xx

Never gets easy to say goodbye!
It’s hard when a little one leaves who has been in your care every week since being very small ❤️ they become part of your home, family and part of you. It’s a privilege to know someone trusts you to care for their children, and it’s a bigger privilege to be able to watch them grow and develop. I’ll miss this little sassy lady - love you kidda! Go smash school Nursery, show them what you can do ❤️

Just like that… he’s moving on 🩵 oh how you’ve grown and into such a gorgeous boy 🩵 I envy your teachers, they will now get all the smiles and giggles you gave me, and they will get to answer a question whilst you’re asking your next question 😂 it has been a pleasure, and you’ll always have a piece of my heart with you - now go show big boy school what you’re made of, tell them all the things you know and show them all the things you can do 🩵

Not posted to my page in such a long time, but I’m still here helping little ones develop and thrive 💕 coming out of covid and getting a new set of children plus having my inspection while still having a life and gaining 2 beautiful granddaughters got me distracted 😆
But really wanted to share this with you all, we started attending Boogie Beat sessions at the care homes again and yesterday we were at Meadway 💕 it was lovely to see Maureen so happy and healthy as she was pre covid 💕
But I can’t tell you how precious these sessions are - everyone wanted to hold and cuddle baby and baby was in her element, the older children danced, sang, hugged and played games with them 💕 A huge appreciation goes to Tracy Markham for organising these sessions 💕
But I’ve got to share this special moment with you all - one of the ladies is blind but loves children. My oldest mindee let her feel his face and hair, I explained to him she’s feeling your face so she can imagine what you look like and how big you are. We described to her the colour of his hair and the blueness of his eyes and a very cheeky smile 🥰 after she had finished he wrapped his arms around her….. she burst into tears saying I can’t see but I can feel love 😭 it made her that happy she cried! These are the most important moments for me!! The child learnt far more than could be taught in a lesson and we made others happy 💕
It got me in the feels and will stay with me forever!! 💕
