I became a childminder 7 years ago after leaving my job as a nursery nurse in a local primary school where I worked for 16 years, I've always loved caring for children so decided to work from home doing a job that I love, and its been one of the best decisions I've ever made.
The schools I currently do morning drops offs and afternoon pickups from are St john Vianney primary school and West Denton first school.
During my working day I enjoy doing a wide range of outdoor and indoor activities with the children ,as well as having trips out to parks , nature walks, museums, soft plays, etc.
I work very closely with another 3 childminders, and we all meet regularly at each others houses and have days out together too, so the children have a wide variety of friends and adults who they spend time with.
I'm registered with a few different salary sacrifice agencies , and also with the government tax free childcare scheme.
