I am an Ofsted-registered childminder based in Poole, just a short walk from Longfleet Primary School. Our home is warm, spacious, and filled with a wide range of engaging resources to support children’s learning and play. I work alongside my husband (of 23 years), Paul, who is also my registered assistant. We share our home with our three wonderful children, aged 19, 16, and 11, who we are incredibly proud of. Alongside our experience as parents, I bring four years of hands-on experience in early years education. Our setting is built on strong values, and we support children to develop kindness, resilience, respect, empathy and inclusion through everyday role-modelling, stories and play. We provide a safe, nurturing environment where every child is supported in all areas of their development and well-being. We love spending time outdoors exploring nature, getting creative, and offering children opportunities to learn through meaningful, joyful experiences.
