Childcare and Early Education Providers

l have been an Ofsted registered childminder for 24yrs+ years. I work with my husband who is my Ofsted registered assistant. We have worked for lots of families over the years so have a wealth of experience.

We offer a child led based curriculum including music and movement, arts and crafts and have a holistic approach to learning. We offer outdoor activities at all times of the day in our large safely enclosed outdoor areas. Although we are close to the city centre we are located on the edge of the town moor where the children can see cows and horses daily.

A range of activities are provided to stimulate progress in all areas of development working to the principle of the Early Years Foundation Stage. Activities are child led and based on their interests and ideas

We pride ourselves on providing a nurturing and uniquely individualised approach. Our staff have bespoke training to ensure we provide the best possible care and education.

I am an Ofsted registered childminder, based in Gosforth and provide healthy home cooked meals and snacks for the children. I drive and have a nice sized home with plenty of indoor and outdoor space for play. I regularly take trips out to soft play, toddler groups, parks and the beach (weather permitting).

It is a pleasure to welcome you to Cragside Primary School, a place where learning is brought to life with energy, enthusiasm and a deep sense of care.

From the moment you enter Culverdene Day Nursery you will be impressed by the cheerful rooms and happy faces.

Dame Allan's Schools provide independent education from aged 3 to 18 years of age.

Our aim at Dinnington First School is to provide a happy, stimulating environment where children will be encouraged to co-operate wholeheartedly with other children and staff who will help them to develop fully their individual, intellectual, physical, emotional and spiritual potential.

At my childminding setting I provide a large playroom with a range of toys and activities for all ages and stages of development. I also have a large garden with a selection of outdoor toys for children to play with.
