I have been an Ofsted registered childminder since June 2003. I work with my daughter who is my assistant.
I have two daughters born in 1991 & 1997 along with a friendly dog and a cat.
I live in North Tonbridge, just a five minute walk from Woodlands school and Roselands preschool & a five minute drive from Tonbridge Station.
I follow the early years foundation stage (EYFS) and use Baby's Days for contracts, policies and accidents and this is accessible to parents at all times.
