About my home
I live in Clapton with my husband and our two young children. I've created an environment that encourages fun and interactive learning through the use of arts and crafts. I really enjoy getting to know children as individuals, discovering their different ways of learning and how we, as parents and childminders, can help them grow.
I prioritise the working partnership between parents and childminders to make sure the children can continue to develop their knowledge, creativity, reading and maths at home.
I am really into fitness and health so as a childminder, I include plenty of physical activity and outings that relate to sport. I provide healthy meals and snacks that adhere to the children's dietary requirements, and always encourage children to have their five a day!
Unique highlights

Healthy outlook
I enjoy keeping fit and active and plan lots of healthy activities for children!
Culture and background
Being from the Caribbean, I love to find out more about different cultural backgrounds. I share that knowledge with children so they learn how to be respectful and appreciative of other cultures.
My nursery is situated close to the beautiful parkland of Millfields and Hackney Marshes at Lea Bridge - an ideal location for the children to get out and about and explore nature.
The Lea Valley Horse riding centre is within walking distance and children can enjoy looking at the wildlife, houseboats and kayakers on the River Lea.
