My Name is Emma and I'm an OFSTED Registered Childminder since 2010.
I live in Walkwood on the circular bus route bus number 47/48 which stops a few meters from my house. I live in a large end of terrace house with my husband, my 2 children and 3 guinea pigs. Our setting has its own dedicated entrance, cloakroom, toilet/wet room, playroom and newly renovated craft room and an enclosed secure garden with CCTV.
My setting garden area is safe and secure for outdoor play with table and chairs, trampolines, ride on toys, Sand pit, Slide, Paddling pools (weather permitting), mud kitchen, Pop up tents and tunnels. The children have access to this all day long and can come and go as they please.
I am Ofsted registered, have had a CRB check and hold full Public Liability Insurance. I am English speaking, a non smoker, hold a full UK passport and a full UK drivers license. I have my own 7 seated car, fully insured for business use, breakdown cover and fitted with appropriate child car seats.
I had my most recent Ofsted inspection in January 2023 and was graded “Good” again. You can see my Ofsted report online.
