Leah Jackson Child Minder

Leah Jackson Child Minder Home from home childcare for babies and children in a warm, family environment. I am a registered childminder working in the St Marychurch area of Torquay. Leah

I currently offer full time and part time places to Early Years children and before and after school care for those in Primary school. I live with my husband Sam and our three children, in a terraced house, near to St Marychurch precinct. I hold a BA (Hons) degree in Childcare and Education, as well as an up to date Child Protection certificate and Paediatric First Aid certificate. I have previous experience in nursery nursing and have previously taken a break from childminding to set up a new 16 place nursery unit for 2-3 year olds at a local school. However, I made the decision to return to childminding. Home is where the heart is after all. Please have a scroll through my FaceBook page and a look at my photos to get a good idea of what we get up to and my general approach to childcare. You are most welcome to send me a message or give me a call for more information.

I am very excited to share our new, dedicated playroom. Freshly decorated and ready for the children to come back tomorrow. Term officially starts next week so we have a few more days of summer holiday fun to enjoy.

And we are in! The children are already making themselves at home in the new playroom 🏡

On Monday we move to our new home, so today was a last moment..the last day childminding in this room. We are onto bigger things, a dedicated playroom, a big garden for the children to play in....things I've wanted for my childminding business for a long time. But I also want to remember this space and how it hasn't only been my family that ate dinners here, but all my extra family. Little people who have played, slept, danced, painted, shared meals (and had the occasional tantrum 😂) in this little room. It feels very strange seeing it all boxed up. I can't wait to show them around next week and I'm sure they'll help the new playroom feel like home straight away 🏡

After a lovely week of annual leave spent with my family, I am preparing for the start of summer holiday care tomorrow. You might think it's planning exciting outings and educational activities but if I'm honest it's me chopping an incredible amount of watermelon 😂

Some of the ways we are keeping cool in the sun this week. It was really noticeable how much cooler it was in the woods. Yesterday the children enjoyed the day paddling in the stream and a picnic in the shade, followed by home made fruit lollies. Today we've got water play and a makeshift shade.

I had some helpers today getting all these broad beans from our allotment out of their pods. We read the story "Beans on Toast" and learned how beans grow. It was a lovely moment of calm connection before a busy, active morning playing at The Boulder Bunker for some literal climbing the walls.

This week is National Childminding Week. At this point I've been doing this long enough that it's not just a job or career. It's part of who I am. These little people fill up my days with so many lovely moments. Here are some photos to share the and to show my appreciation for the other childminders I've met along the way, that have become friends and make the job even better ❤️
