Childminder

Hi, I’m Anna and I've been childminding off and on ever since my eldest daughter (now 16) was a baby. I have three children in total (2 girls, one boy) and one very friendly cat.

I offer childminding for pre-schoolers Monday to Thursday, Somerset school term time only. I also offer care for older children before and after school five days a week, and can drop off and pick up from Hayesdown School and the Opportunity Nursery on Wyville Road (I live just around the corner). I can also offer places for older siblings at Selwood School, provided they can walk here themselves.

I believe in letting children’s imaginations roam and aim to provide a setting where they can play to their hearts’ content. We spend lots of time outside, and I'm a keen gardener so love growing vegetables, fruit and flowers with the children. We also do arts and crafts, play games, sing and read lots of stories.
