A bit about me and my family
|
Running a childminding business in our home means some interruption to our lives and our home. I need and have the full backing of all the members of my family. I am happy to introduce them to you and tell you a little about us all.
About me
I am 32 years old and live with my partner Rob, our son Alfie and Samson - our dog.
Both Rob and I come from Coventry. We met at university where Rob obtained his degree in Technical Communications and I read Psychology. We moved to South Yorkshire when Rob was offered a position with a software house in Sheffield and we have now been here for over eight years.
I have worked in customer services for a number of years here in South Yorkshire. Before Alfie joined us I was the Senior Hire Controller for a firm that provide tools and resource to the rail networks. After having Alfie I decided not to return to work but to train and pursue a career in childcare.
You will find me to be an enthusiastic, caring and reliable childminder. I understand how important it is to know your child is safe and happy. I will do everything I can to ensure a safe and respectful environment in which your child can develop their interpersonal, communication, sharing and learning skills while having lots of fun!
Outside of looking after the three boys, I like:
- Italian food.
- music.
- reading.
Rob
Rob is 38 years old and works as a Senior Technical Author for a software firm in Sheffield.
He enjoys:
-
spending time with Alfie. They are usually out in the garden playing football, playing table football or table tennis in Alfie's bedroom or jumping around the living room playing on the Xbox Kinect.
-
listening to music.
-
walking with Samson.
-
mountain biking.
Alfie
Alfie was born in April 2007.
He likes:
-
visiting his family and getting lots of attention.
-
talking to anyone who will listen to him.
-
football. He has decided he is a Chelsea supporter and is looking forward to captaining England one day (after which he tells us he wants to be Prime Minister).
-
music and dancing. He spends his Saturday mornings dancing with his dad to the sounds of the sixties on Radio 2.
-
swimming. He enjoys his Monday evening swimming lessons (especially soaking his dad when he reaches the side of the pool).
-
eating. Alfie eats almost anything put in front of him.
Samson
Samson is an Alsatian / Collie / Chow cross! He is a big softie at heart and loves nothing more than a cuddle and a long walk, preferably one which features water.
Samson will not be in the same rooms as the children under my care. He is in no way dangerous but being quite large, clumsy and very sleepy, he will be much happier spending his days snoozing elsewhere in the house or garden whenever children are here.
