I am an Ofsted Registered childminder living in Maidstone, very near the town centre. I am originally from South Africa and my family is Portuguese. I have been working as a childminder since August 2011 and have previously worked as an Au Pair in the USA and have done regular babysitting for friends and family. I have also completed my Level 3 Childcare Diploma.

I offer daily outings to the park, local children's centres and the library. I provide a friendly, happy home environment with spacious, safe indoor and outdoor play areas where children will feel stimulated and will learn through play. I offer a flexible service and welcome children from all backgrounds. I have completed my Level 3 Childcare Diploma, I have completed my Paediatric First Aid course and have been CRB cleared. I have also completed regular training courses with my local authority/council.
