About Me and the setting

I live with my husband (a serving police officer) and my 13 and 5 year old daughters in Didsbury, South Manchester.

I am educated to a degree level (marketing) and working within the marketing industry for over ten years at management level. After the birth of my eldest daughter I decided to change careers and moved into a childcare career, in Childminding.

After 10 years working from my own home, I took the leap and opened a new nursery setting about 200 metres from my home address.

I am committed to gaining as much knowledge as I can with regards to childcare and development and regularly attend courses in my spare time to further develop myself in this area and improve the service I provide.
