In addition to our classrooms we have a computing suite, two large halls, a library, a sensory room and additional group teaching spaces.

Hello, my name is Annika, I offer a warm, comfortable and friendly welcoming environment. I am home based in Chapel House Estate and an Ofsted Registered Childminder. During my 12 years in childcare I have worked in many areas including being a Nanny for 10 years caring for new born babies to 10 years of age, I also have experience in a Nursery Setting, in Primary Schools, Caring for Special Needs Children, and now Childminding. I provide healthy home cooked meals and snacks for the children.

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.
