I am an Ofsted registered childminder in the M29 Astley area. I have 20 years experience working in the childcare sector and have been a childminder since April 2013.

I provide care for children from birth to 11 year old on Monday to Friday both in term time and school holidays.

Breakfast/After school care

I normally open at 7:45 (but can be flexible with prior discussion) and provide children with a healthy balanced breakfast before I walk with them to Tyldesley Primary School. I collect children from the school at 3:25 and collect nursery children at their finish times. After school children are walked back to my home where they are provided with a range of activities, planned and unplanned for them to participate in before sitting down at the family table for a healthy well balanced evening meal. I finish my care at 6pm (again, can be flexible with prior discussion).

Holiday care

I provide a holiday care service for school age children whereby I am available 7:45am - 6pm (Although can be flexible with start/finish times with prior discussion).

Home cooked meals

I provide all meals for the duration of the child's stay which are prepared and cooked on my premises, ensuring a healthy and well balanced diet. All dietary requirements can be catered for with prior discussion.­­

Outings

It is my aim to get the children out and about daily. We visit local Sure Start groups, toddler sessions, parks, libraries, museums, nature walks to name but a few.­­

Education through play

I provide a fun and friendly 'home from home' environment which allows children to learn and develop through play in safe and secure surroundings. Working under the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework (EYFS) I provide activities that extend a child's learning whilst focusing mainly on their play experiences, elaborating on these to further challenge and excite young minds. For more information on the EYFS Framework please see the section, EYFS for Parents.­­

Prices

I charge £4.50 per hour. This is inclusive of all meals and snacks for the duration of your child's stay.­­
I accept payment by cash, cheque, standing order and through voucher schemes.
I am also registered to provide government funded childcare for 2, 3 and 4 year olds. For more information click here.
