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 are a NOT-for-PROFIT group keeping our fees low. We offer funded places. 15 hours and 30 hours available.

We are based in a modern, purpose built classroom in the Early Years section at Westerhope Primary School. We have a large outdoor play area with a wide range of equipment. We also have use of the school field, forest school area, and outdoor stage.

We have a stimulating and welcoming environment with good grades throughout and OUTSTANDING for Personal development, behaviour and welfare from our Ofsted inspection 25/4/2019.

We have lots of fun and educational toys here and my aim is to let the children who come here have as much fun as possible so that they look forward to coming here so mum and dad can go to work knowing their children are happy and safe.

We regularly visit toddler groups, soft play, little owls, gym tots, judo,music groups and the park. We also have visits to Jesmond dene as well as lots of other outings.
