Within my childminding service I provide a loving family environment, treating all the children as my own, with no difference in care or attention. I provide a good variety of toys all of which are unbroken, clean and a good range of boy/girl toys. A quiet area is provided for sleep/rest times. My garden is safe and enclosed with a bolted gate to the rear of the house, again with various outside toys e.g. - bikes, climbing frame, swings, prams etc. We regularly attend parent/toddler groups within Shepshed as well as using the local toy library and park. The children also enjoy painting, Play-Doh and baking. We are a non-smoking household and have no pets.
