During my 29 years in childcare I worked in many areas including Nursery, Reception, Special Needs, Nanny and now childminding. I provide a variety of activities from imaginative play to construction craft and music depending of the child’s needs and abilities. I attend Kingston Park childminder dropping and toddler groups. Also I take the children on outings some of our favourite places include Leazes Park Saltwell Park, Thornley Woods, Bowlam Lake the library and Dobbies Garden Centre.  

I am very reliable and very caring and have over 9 years of childcare experience working with children between the ages of 0 and 11 years. I have alse gained valuable experience from my role as a mum to my 2 boys. My qualifications include a BA Honours Degree in Children and Young Persons, First Aid training, Safeguarding Children training and a variety of other helpful training courses.

We provide a safe and stimulating environment for children's learning and development. The setting implements the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and ensures all children have equal access and opportunity to actively learn and develop.  Outdoor access is available all year round to extend experiences. We focus on the indivdual childs strengths and support and encourage further learning opportunities building on confidence and skills.

Heaton Nursery is a private registered day nursery school, which has been established since 1970 and caters for children from birth to 11 years. The nursery is situated 10 minutes from Newcastle City Centre with easy access from all areas. The nursery is one of four privately owned provisions.

I have been childminding for 8 years and I am also a qualified cook which I did for 15 years.  I have experience of working with children who have special needs.

I offer a welcoming and friendly enviroment for kids and their parents. I have a garden space available for outside play and have a variety of toys. I often visit the local library and park to allow children to explore and enjoy their local environment.
