My name is Lauren, I am 29 years old and live in Desborough. We have lived here since 2013. My husband and I have been blessed with a beautiful daughter who is 8 years old and a lovely little boy who is 4 years old. We have a love of animals in our house. We have two dogs, a cat, a rabbit and some chickens at our house. We then have a horse and two ponies on our land not to far away. I became a childminder as I wanted to work from home so I am always around for my children. We are a military family and my husband is only home on leave and some weekends so I wanted to always be here. Childminding suited our family as my children love the company and I love having people buzzing around. The enthusiasm that comes from kids is just such a joy to see. I am Ofsted registered on the childcare register, this means I am able to take school age children. I am not currently registered on the Early years registered which is something I may do in time. I drop off and collect from Loatlands nursery and primary school. I offer over overnight care as well.
