Service Description

Service Description:
I have 37years of childminding experience. I provide a warm, clean, safe and friendly home for the children to come into and try to do lots of fun activities and outings for the children to join in with. I have a safe enclosed garden and have regular visits to a local park, play area.

Children enjoy activities such as arts and crafts, jigsaws, playdoh, story time, singing, music, free play and outside play. I provide freshly made nutritious snacks and drinks throughout the day. I try to be as flexible as possible to suit individual needs.

I try to accommodate parent’s wishes for outings, playgroups, toddler groups, baby clinics etc. I also do a pick up and drop off from Mickleover Methodist Playgroup and Mickleover Primary School. I hold a current Paediatric First Aid Qualification. We visit the library every week for story time, rhyme time and to choose new books to read.
