Hello, my name is Cressida.
I live in St Clement with my partner Graham and our 2 children who are 8 and 3. We are a non-smoking, no pet household.
I live very close to the beach so we spend time there as well as the parks, zoo, Samares Manor and heritage sites. We love to explore the lanes and countryside that jersey has to offer. As an active member of the childminder community to encourage socialisation I help run a weekly playgroup where your child can socialise with other children and we often have play dates with other childminders. I have a spacious house with a big, enclosed garden and the children benefit from my playroom.
We also regularly help our friends tend to their allotment, where your child will have the chance to learn and help grow vegetables/fruits and best of all enjoy the massive mud kitchen and dig pit
I have a BTEC Level 3 in Challenging Behaviour and a NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care. I have completed all the necessary courses to gain my Childminder registration such as Child Safeguarding, First Aid, Food Hygiene and Fire Safety. I have a clean driving license and have an up-to-date DBS check.
I have previously worked as a Nanny, as a Teaching Assistant and cared for individuals with Learning Disabilities. My passion is early years and take part in on going CPD to ensure I always work to high standards and ensure the best care for the children.
In my setting I offer childcare a warm and caring home. To support parents I can offer a pick up service in the mornings. Your child will have the opportunity to enjoy doing crafts, puzzles, messy play, role play, baking, reading books and more. I also have a swing set and a slide outside and lots of birds visit the garden.
I will always base our activities on your child’s interests and developmental needs to ensure their time with me is fun and interesting. I keep in touch during the day using WhatsApp.
Please feel free to contact me to discuss your childcare requirements.
