Little Olives Childminding

Childminder in Stourbridge, West Midlands (DY9)

About me

I’m a Primary school teacher with 10 years experiences working in a range of different years groups within KS1 and early years. I have two small children of my own so I understand the importance of choosing the right place for your little ones and what an important decision it is.
Working with children has been my dream and passion since I was 7 years old – it’s what I love to do!
My mission is to ensure that every child feels safe, secure, listened to and cared for whilst thriving and learning through play. I want to build strong relationships with the families that use my setting to meet the needs of their little ones.
My experience as a qualified teacher has shown me how rewarding it is to support children as they discover new things, develop their independence and achieve their own milestones.
I love listening to their ideas, watching their personalities develop and seeing how excited they get when they discover something new. I love building strong secure relationships with children and incorporating their interests into their learning and activities.
I offer more than just childcare – I create a genuine home-from-home environment where children feel safe, valued and listened to.
