Hi, my name is Karina and I am an Ofsted registered childminder based in Shepshed with vacancies for children of all ages. I promote a safe and welcoming environment, where the children can learn, grow and have fun and can participate in a full range of activities such as free play, cooking, outside play, stories, dramatic play, creative art, crafts, music and much much more. I also attend the local toddler groups and Toy Library so that the children can interact within a larger group of children.

I have attended many training courses in order to further educate myself within the childcare sector and have so far achieved the following:

Level 3 Diploma in Home Based Childcare
First Aid Qualified
Basic Health & Safety
Discovering the EYFS with reference to Birth to Three
Observation, Recording & Evidence for children 0-3 with reference to the EYFS
Safeguarding Children
Food safety and Hygiene
A look at Nutrition
Common Assessment Framework
Challenging Bias & Ensuring Inclusion
Promoting Positive Behaviour (over 5's)
Language Development
Top Start Training

With further courses still to attend.

I have one daughter aged 2 and a half, no pets and we are a non smoking household. I also have excellent references available to view.

Please feel free to contact me via the forum

Thank you
Karina
