I am an experienced childminder, working in childcare for over 20 years. I am part of a Quality Childminders Forum (QCF) where I access the latest training and information related to the childcare sector.

I live in a two-bedroom second floor flat which is accessible by a lift. I live with my daughter and 3 friendly cats.

I provide home to home care, and work in partnership with parents to meet needs.

I have been a registered childminder for over 25 years.

I have completed additional training including Child Brain Development and SEND.

I take children outside once or twice a day to nearby outdoor facilities such as playgrounds. I also take children to playgroups where they can socialise.

The children in my setting learn and play using the activities I plan and resources I provide. I have a garden which I set up for the children where they can play with sand and water. I also provide:

• interactive toys, small world toys
• lots of books to suit all stages
• playdough
• drawing
• dressing up
• opportunities to interact with each other

One of my strong points is communication, and I encourage the children to express themselves vocally and using body language and facial expressions.

I have been a registered childminder since 2009.

I have completed a maternity course and can support with child routines and sleeping. I also hold a level 3 childcare diploma.

I speak 3 languages: English, French, Arabic

I have been a registered childminder since 2006. I am also a quality assured childminder, and a member of the Quality Childminding Forum (QCF). I have a Diploma in Home Based Childcare Level 3, which is equivalent to a NVQ level 3.

I attend plays groups daily, and also attend children's centres, local parks and libraries.

I offer a safe, secure, non-smoking, and nurturing environment. The children benefit from garden space with resources to help stimulate them as well as an indoor play area. The day-to-day activities consist of adult lead and child-initiated (free play), appropriate for their age. To name a few, there is sand, water play, construction, cookery, story-time, nursery rhyme songs, art and craft, and gardening. Children learn to care for two goldfish.
