About this home

Jessica's tiney home is a welcoming setting where you can have your peace of mind. Based on a quiet road near Tottenham Hale Underground station, right beside the glorious Walthamstow Wetlands.

About our tiney childminder

I have been working within the Early Years sector since 2004 and am dedicated to raising happy, confident and independent learners. I am qualified and experienced to support children with additional needs.

I'm a warm, affectionate mother and educator who supports children to be curious. Having gained experience through the Montessori approach, I adapt play and learning by structuring activities for the interests of your child, using appropriate resources, language and by building a relationship based on trust.

My tiney home is close to lots of lovely green spaces where children can enjoy daily outdoor walks, rain or shine, and explore nature.

Unique highlights

Food for thought

Our meal times are always calm, orderly and unstressed moments in the day where rich conversation is enjoyed. We can learn here too, by using language to describe the shape, texture or colour of food. Expert menus tailored to your child’s needs.

Mini adventures

I believe experience of the outdoors helps children to deepen their understanding of the world and enrich their language. We have plenty of beautiful, natural areas nearby to spark little imaginations.

Kindling a passion for reading

I love to read stories that keep children focused and engaged. “Words are beautiful things, they hold meaning and they give us power to express meaning. Words are keys to unlock the world. Every time we read a book to a child, we are holding out a new box of interesting keys for them to collect.” Meghan Cox-Gurdon, author of 'The Enchanted Hour: The Miraculous Power of Reading Aloud in the Age of Distraction'

Location

Two minutes walk from Tottenham Hale Underground, overground and bus stations.

In this neighbourhood

I live very close to Tottenham Hale Station, surrounded by peaceful green local parks alongside the banks of River Lea.

Locally, I have access to the sprawling Walthamstow Wetlands Nature Reserve where reservoirs and marshes are home to kingfishers, falcons and butterflies. Also within close proximity is 'The Paddock', another unique ecological setting.

My tiney home is close to Tottenham Hale Retail Park so is a great option for parents working there.

What others are saying about this home...

Theresa

Jessica is caring , kind and compassionate. You will feel comfortable and confident leaving your child in her care.

Mrs. Clark

I found Jessica to be supportive and always willing to help in whatever capacity. Not only would she encourage her own child she would often provide educational and emotional encouragement to children whose parents could not attend therefore building their confidence and ensuring they are fully engaged and access learning.

Ms. Apollonia Tanner ( parent)

I highly recommend Jessica, my children enjoy their time with her. They feel it is their second home. They have fun packed days with various activities such as doing times tables, spelling, reading. They love the planting activity too.The children loved going to the park and playing basketball too. The children have a large variety of food to eat and are happy to be be with Jessica.

Hannah and Nicola

My daughter will be attending Jessica's Tiney nursery full-time from September. In the run up Jessica established a thorough and thoughtful settling in programme. As a first time parent and social worker I was anxious to find the right setting for my child. Jessica has been so welcoming and playful. My daughter has quickly bonded with Jessica and has settled so well in the sessions. Jessica set up fun activities every time such as water play and painting! Jessica ensures she gives us written and photo updates. Crucially, there is a warm and family atmosphere in the home. I couldn't be more happy with our choice.

Caroline

Jessica Akude is a professional, devoted and responsible carer who provides a positive happy and comfortable setting for the children she looks after. My daughter Isabella always looks forward to going to Jessica's nursery all the way until the end of the day. Jessica is very attentive of her learning needs and development skills across all areas and will document Isabella's journey and progress. I also appreciate her end of day feedback where she briefs me on Isabella's day. Kind Regards Caroline Rodriguez-Pabon

Nana Bempah

Jessica is a brilliant childminder. She is the first childminder we have had and it didn't take long for our daughter to settle into Jessica's environment and become excited to see her. She is very welcoming and caring. There are lots of activities both indoor and outdoor and Jessica keeps us updated promptly with pictures and notes. Our daughter eats healthy and comes back very happy and having learnt new things. I have seen such development in my daughter since she has been attending and would highly recommend Jessica to other parents. Nana
