It is my firm belief that each child is an individual in their own right and should be allowed to express themselves in a fun, child-centered environment. As such, the service follows an approach which allows each child to develop at their own pace, from reading or art and crafts, to socialising with other children in outings and playgroups, whilst ensuring a home from home experience. Over the last 20 years, I have gained plenty of experience in childcare, not only from being a mother, but in a professional capacity as well, working as a nanny in America looking after 3 toddlers; and in Italy nannying for a new born baby. Beyond this I have previously been employed as a nursery assistant for a community nursery in Irvine and was the founder and leader of a community toddler group which was -and still is -very successful, entertaining 25 children. My husband, two children and I live in a lovely detached home in a quiet and safe street which is easily accessible by car or bus. It is from here that I provide children with a safe, caring, warm and stimulating home from home environment where they can play, grow, learn and have fun.
