Abigail Clare Thurstan

I have been an Ofsted registered childminder since 2008, I love my job and it is my commitment to provide quality "home from home" care for each child I look after.

I am enthusiastic, approachable, caring and I provide a setting where children have lots of fun and build friendships whilst learning.

I offer a nutritious breakfast, take children to play groups, library Story-time, various local parks, museums, children's centre activities.

I have a wide variety of toys, books & resources that I have built up over the years, to interest & stimulate pre-school children either through 'free play' or more structured 'adult led' activities where I will have a specific learning goal in mind, specific to your child’s stage of development, for example, starting to use scissors during crafts to building confidence climbing on play equipment, mastering inset puzzles to early literacy & numeracy.

Children will be supported to become resilient, independent, caring & ready for for next step of pre-school or reception. I offer the 15 or 30 hours childcare funded by the government (30 hours is when eligible)

My recent Ofsted Inspection Judgement was Outstanding.
