Setting open.
I have been an Ofsted registered childminder since 2010. I am a qualified level 3 Early Years Practitioner, with 15 years experience working with 0-5 year olds. Ofsted Good Dec 2014.
Originally from Ukraine. Married to South-African. I have two sons - 9 and 6 years old. I provide a loving and caring home from home setting for children to explore and thrive in.
I have an open plan living/dining room area for the children to play in, and also have a separate small play room. I enjoy being outdoors, and will spend every day outside doing something fun with the children. We have our own garden. I am located within walking distance a local playground for children to run around and have fun with other children. We also attend local toddler groups, library.
I believe that children learn best through play, and put this into practise daily. I also encourage choice and child participation in what activities we do throughout the week. I am a creative person who enjoys doing arts and craft and baking activities with the children. I provide a range of different activities and resources, which cover all the areas of the EYFS to meet the needs of each individual child.
I work closely with parents/carers to be able to provide the best possible care for their child and to meet their individual needs.
I speak Russian, English, German and Ukrainian.
I have 1 part- time space available.
