I have been a childminder since November 2004 and I am registered with Ofsted and I am also a member of PACEY (Professional Association for Childcare and Early Years). My daughter Rachel has been working as my assistant since September 2012, which has greatly enhanced the service I can now provide. Also my husband Dave is now an assistant and will help out occassionally when needed.
