Karen Jane Elliott

I have been childminding for over 20 years and have a warm friendly approach to childminding, encouraging children to be confident, independent and enjoy their time with me.  

I follow the EYFS keeping a track of their progress with me.  We go on regular outings to parks, childminding groups and toddler groups along with visits to the library. (Due to Coronavirus, outings are outdoors).

I provide craft activities for the children and baking.  I have an enclosed rear garden with plenty of outdoor toys and equipment.  I live close to A34 by-pass in Cheadle Hulme which makes it easy for commuting to work.

I have current first aid certificates along with food hygiene and safeguarding training.  I was inspected as Good during my last inspection.  Can accept children for 2/3-4 year funded.
