MARCH 2025
March saw me returning from my honeymoon and back to the great British weather.
We were very excited to welcome our new starters and look forward to watching them build friendships and transform from crawling caterpillars into beautiful butterflies.
March also saw us celebrating some important dates, such as St Patrick’s day and even more importantly celebrating those special ladies in our life’s for Mothering Sunday.
One of the activities at our local group was to plant sunflower seeds, what a brilliant opportunity for the children to learn to give care and nurture their seedling in order to be able to watch the seedling grow into a beautiful sunflower before their own eyes.
March also brought us a couple of beautiful days, which we spent visiting Love2Stay. Watching the children enjoying the dry weather and having the freedom to run, climb, crawl and slide up and over, through and under all the different pieces of play equipment is so rewarding. The bright weather also gave us the opportunity to have our first picnic lunch of the year.

FEBRUARY 2025
Although the month of February was extremely hectic with Wedding preparations, the wedding itself and then the amazing honeymoon, our days spent childminding and our adventures with the children were just as well planned, exciting and full of a variety of learning opportunities for the children.

JANUARY 2025
After a busy December and a wonderful Christmas break, we welcomed back all our amazing children.
We loved listening to their stories as they enthusiastically shared with us every detail of their Christmas breaks.
January saw us enjoying some time relaxing with free play at home, where the little ones could let their imaginations take their play in any direction they wanted.
We enjoyed a lovely day at Pirates and Princesses Soft Play, which has an amazing sensory room.
We also visited one of the children’s most favourite places - Jungleland, where the Jungleland express train is a firm favourite.
We also made a visit to one of our local toddler groups, Pushchair People. This group is one of the most welcoming groups we attend, and loves to include childminders within its family. The children love attending this group, whether it’s to play with the many toys on offer, sit quietly in the book corner, join in with song time, or complete the wonderful craft activities that have been so thought out and well planned.
Another group that welcomes childminders with open arms is Minster Minis, again this group always has a brilliant and well thought out craft activity, as well as a large variety of toys for the children to play with.

A well overdue update to the page!
November saw us visiting:
Our local park
All saints playgroup
Albrighton Garden Centre
Our local Childminder drop in support group
Also spending time indoors recognising special events in our history,.
The children also enjoy free play, which is an important time away from adult led activities, after observing them dressing up as doctors and dentists, we decided to extend their learning in these areas whilst we had their attention and interest.
