What we do:
About me:
I have been working as a childminder since September 2007 and I have two children of my own. So I am also an experienced mum! I am very proud of my two boys, aged 16 and 14 years.
I have worked with many children from 5 months to 11 years. Each individual child is different and I am able to tailor my approach to suit their needs and unique personality.
I enjoy working with children and their families, it is very important to me that we work together in the very best interests of the children in my setting.
