About Me

I live with my Fiancé Ryan and our daughter Abigail who is almost 2 years old. We also have a very friendly cat called Felix.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ryan is very supportive of my role as a professional Childminder. My decision to begin working with children was sparked by the birth of my own daughter. It made me realise that I am passionate about caring for children and this set me along my path of becoming a registered childminder. I have been caring for children of all ages and backgrounds for almost 12 months and I have loved every minute. I have enjoyed the challenges that it has brought along the way along with the smiles and laughter that makes the job all worth while. I have a lot of interests, I like to read and I have a vast amount of books. I also like baking and cooking, I have recently invested in a bread maker too. I am also a keen crafter and like to make my own cards, I like drawing and painting, I can knit also.  I also grow some fruit and vegetables in our garden. I play some musical instruments as well.  All these activities I would love to share with your child.

 

Both myself, Ryan and my Mum have all had Enhanced Criminal Records disclosures for your protection. My mum has also completed the same intensive paediatric first aid course. My mum sometimes visits us or comes along on trips as it can be useful having another pair of hands.
