My name is Charlotte, I am an Ofsted registered childminder in Haxby. I have been childminding now for 4 years. We have 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs, two frogs, two snails and a couple of fish. I do believe pets can help children in development, to help build confidence and to teach them how to treat animals in the right way. Over the past 10 years i have gained various experiences of working with children, from babysitting, youth club work to raising my own. We live in a two bedroom house with an enclosed back garden. Situated close to play parks, schools and woodland. I have a wide range of toys and play equipment inside and out that will encourage and support growth and development in all areas.
