Welcome to my cozy childminding home nestled in the serene countryside atop a gentle hill. Your child's growth and happiness are my top priorities.

Hi name is Ann-Marie, a passionate childminder (pre- registration) with 16 years experience working with children also specializing in SEN. I enjoy creating an adventurous and joyful learning environment for young minds to flourish here in Urishay Peterchurch surrounded by a stunning environment for children to blossom. I hold a Diploma in Children and Young Peoples Workforce obtained in 2013, complemented by 8 years of hands-on experience in preschool education, specializing in the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS), and an additional 8 years devoted to supporting children with Special Educational Needs (SEN). Also a mum of 3...aged 21, 18 and 12 (youngest was diagnosed with Autism at 17 months old).

Hey everyone ๐Ÿ˜Š.
After a lot of thought, Iโ€™ve sadly decided to close my childminding business.
My son needs me more during this time, and as a mum, that comes before everything โค.

My last working day will be 19th December. ๐Ÿฐ

Iโ€™m so grateful to the families who have been part of my journey ๐Ÿฅฐ your children have brought so much joy, laughter, and purpose to my days.
Thank you for understanding and for letting me be part of their early years. โค๏ธ

Weโ€™ve had such a lovely week celebrating Easter and welcoming the joys of spring.
๐Ÿฃ๐ŸŒท
The children have been busy creating colourful eggs, taking part in a fun Easter egg hunt, and enjoying lots of water play in the sunshine!

Weโ€™ve also been lucky to watch the cows and sheep in the fields nearbyโ€”with their adorable new spring babies bringing so much excitement and wonder to our days.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฎ

Wishing all my wonderful families a very Happy Easter ๐Ÿ˜Š.have a lovely break, and I look forward to seeing you all next term!

"March was a month full of magic and discovery! โœจ
We celebrated our wonderful mums, planted our very own Jack and the Beanstalk seeds and watched them sprout , and went on exciting minibeast adventures, hunting for bugs and creepy crawlies!
Every day is an adventure in our little world of learning and fun!
