Goldilocks Childminding

Childminder in Buckden. Open all year round but closed on bank holidays and the week between Christmas and new year.

Goldilocks Childminding is based in Buckden. I live with my husband Dan our son Finley who was born in February 2015 our son Dylan who was born February 2017 and a cat called Tabby.

I am a qualified nursery nurse with an NVQ Level 3 in childcare and education and I have been working with children for over 14 years. I have experience with ages from newborn to teenagers,

I spent around 7 years working in schools and nurseries and was a pre school teacher for some of this time. I have been working as a nanny for 5 years working with many families and children. Having worked with many families I understand what an emotional roller coaster ride it can be finding the right child care for your little ones.

I aim to provide a safe and welcoming home from home setting for your children. I will be working with the Early years foundation stage and children will be learning through play and the activities I set out for them.

In the setting children have access to their own playroom full of toys.

We have an enclosed private garden and a play space indoors which is bright, colourful and full of toys!

The children will have use of the following rooms:

Play space – This is the main playroom which has all the toys, books and other exciting things.

Living room – Children will have use of the TV at lunch for quiet time if they are not sleeping and for reading books on the rug.

Kitchen – This is where all the arts and crafts take place as well as baking lots of lovely things.

Garden – The children will have lots of time to play outside in the garden. There is a dedicated gated area of the garden for messy play such as sand pit, water wall, mud kitchen and vegetable growing area.

Bedroom /spare room – There is space for any children that will require it during the day. There is a travel cot for the younger children and airbeds for the older children who require sleep, and also children’s sleeping bags.

Goldilocks Childminding looks forward to hearing from you soon.
