Gemma's Little Oakes Childminding
I offer ‘30 hours childcare for working parents’ in partnership with other childcare in my area.
I am an Oftsed registered Childminder located in South Hetton. I offer a wide variety of activities for the children to access and have an enclosed garden for outdoor activities/play. I take the children to regular groups and go on regular outings to parks, farms, libraries, museums and soft plays and places of interest.
I live with my husband and also have the experience and knowledge of bringing up my own two sons aged 12 and 9 years. I have previous experience working with children with Autism in a specialist school and have gained a degree in Early Childhood Studies.
