ABOUT ME
Hello, my name is Marcia RUSSELL. I am an Ofsted registered child-minder rated ''''''''Good'''''''' in 2018 and a member of the Professional Association for Childcare and Early Years (PACEY). I have 20 years’ experience as being a youth worker. As a registered child-minder I thrive to provide an excellent service that meets parent’s needs whilst maintaining a safe, caring, loving, innovative and creative learning environment for the children. I have a large home with a spacious garden and plenty of indoor and outdoor activities. I regularly visit local parks and toddler groups with the children. I cater for special dietary needs. My setting provides a breakfast club facility as that would ensure children have a healthy start for the day before school. Good news! I have increased my 2 days service to 4 days. I now offer childminding services at my home on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. You are welcomed to come for a visit and have your names put onto the waiting list as the availability with be based on a ''''First come, first served basis.'''' My working hours are 8am to 6pm. To enhance your child''s learning and social experience, we regularly visit local parks, play groups, libraries, the local farm and a lot of fun packed activities for outdoors and indoors.
