I was a Primary School teacher for 17 years prior to setting up my Child Minding Business in September 2010. I have had experience with all age groups and have also had some Special Needs experience including Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, ADHD and Autism.

The whole of the downstairs area is available for Childminding which includes a living room, a large open plan kitchen\dining\conservatory and a large outside area which has a playhouse and is also astro turfed. There is also a downstairs toilet and wash basin.

Activities include the following:-

I am a qualified nursery nurse and ofsted registered childminder graded good with in excess of 27 years post qualifying experience, caring for children from birth to 12 years. I offer a wide range of indoor and outdoor activities to develop and stretch the children and for them to make friendships with others both adults and children.

I also take the children on outings to integrate into the community and to offer them knowledge and understanding of the world. Children are offered healthy food and snacks whilst in my care, this and the outings are all included in the price. 

My name is Andrea, I am married with 3 children (2 of whom have left home now). We have a very warm and welcoming home in South West Denton/Dumpling Hall, Newcastle.

I have worked as a child minding assistant for the past year which I have found very rewarding, this is what has spurred me on to become a child minder myself.

I have lots of experience working with early years children, I am an honest and friendly person, I am very flexible with my working hours which enables me to provide child care as and when needed.
