What we do?
At Growing Minds, I aim to provide a safe, welcoming, and stimulating environment where children can feel at home while exploring, learning, and having fun. My approach combines structure with flexibility — giving children the security they need, while also encouraging independence and creativity.
What I Offer
Full-Day Childminding
Care for children throughout the day in a homely, nurturing setting, with a balance of play, learning, and rest.
Part-Time & Flexible Hours
Options for families who need regular part-time care, shorter sessions, or flexible arrangements.
Before & After School Care
A safe and caring space for children at the start and end of their school day, including help with homework and time to relax.
School Holiday Care
Engaging activities during school breaks, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor play, creativity, and exploration.
My Approach
Every child is unique, and my services are shaped by the belief that learning happens in many ways. With a background in supporting children with special educational needs (SEN), I understand the importance of patience, adaptability, and inclusivity.
Through play, creative activities, outdoor adventures, and quiet time, I support children to:
Build confidence and independence
Develop social and communication skills
Explore their creativity and imagination
Learn at their own pace, in a way that feels natural and enjoyable
A Home from Home
My childminding setting is designed to feel warm, friendly, and secure — a true “home from home.” Children are encouraged to explore safely, form friendships, and most importantly, feel valued and cared for.
