Personal Details 

I am a married mother of three boys aged, 6, 4 and 1. I have been living in North Tonbridge for 7 years now and have been childminding for four years (starting in February 2006)
We currently have no animals although we are looking to add a puppy to our family sometime this year.  

Training & Experience
In June 2007 I completed my Diploma in Home-based Childcare and am currently in the process of completing my Accreditation status. On completion I will then be able to offer pre-school equivalent childcare and accept Government vouchers for those children aged three and above (the term after their third birthday).

I have completed paediatric first aid, child protection,  Food Hygiene and Speech and Language Development to name a few. I am always continually taking part in training opportunities to ensure my practice remains fresh and up to date. 

Since I began childminding, I have cared for a number of children with a variety of ages ranging from 8 months to 12 years.  


Typical Weekly Activities

We regularly meet with other childminders and attend toddler groups, visit parks, farms and other varieties of local places of interest. 

I have a wide range of indoor and outdoor age and stage related toys  All children in may care have the opportunity to help grow our vegetables and also prepare meals. Older children are involved in planning and decision making regarding activities which take place and this is even more so in the school holidays. 


Contractual Details

I work Monday –Friday 8am-6.30pm both term time and school holidays
I take 4 weeks holiday per year
I am happy to accept childcare vouchers
