I have been working within nurseries for over 11+ years- both as a hands-on practitioner, and a manager, working with all age groups. Mini Badgers Childminding is open from September 2020 and we are accepting visits now! I firmly believe that children should be able to explore our outdoor environment as much as possible. Immersion in nature has so many benefits for children's development; teaching them to care about the environment; helping them sleep better at night; developing their motor skills; and encouraging a healthy life style. To facilitate these, we will be doing regular trips to nature reserves, parks, beaches and forest areas. At home I have a lounge/play room packed with a variety of toys, arts and crafts, and books. I also have a back garden with garden toys, sand and water play, a slide, and an area to grow fruit and vegetables. Opening hours are 7.30-6.30 Monday to Friday. School pick ups/drop offs
