I'm a Qualified Ofsted Registered Childminder located in the village of Theale near Junction 12 of the M4 providing care for children from 6 months of age upwards. I have a valid DBS, an Early Years Educator level 3 qualification, safeguarding and a Paediatric First Aid certificate. Dedicated to providing a loving and caring learning environment for your children, I am also perfectly situated for trips into the community including toddler groups, the park, the library and local shops. I am able to offer full-time and part-time places. I accept a limited number of children to allow me to meet their individual needs.
