Porch full of toys for children to help themselve. We visit Toddler groups and childminder drop in, soft play and libraries. We are in the house the least amount of time visiting parks and other out door activities. Lorraine feels that a childminder is about educating children with futher and different learning experiences. 

I access Sure Start Centres for a variety of activities. I take the children swimming, and visit Gosforth Park.  There is a group of childminders who get together on a regular basis with the children where they interact.



I have a large house and conservatory which the children have access too and a large enclosed back garden where the children are free to play securely.
