Elkins, Ms Clare

I have 31 years experience working with children and have an NVQ level 3 in childcare and education. I live in Muscliff in a four bedroom house with a spacious enclosed garden and separate playroom. I live with my partner and my son who is 20. I also have a daughter who is 22, she lives away however she comes to visit and stays regularly.  I have been childminding for 22 years and I enjoy being a childminder very much. I provide many stimulating activities for the children in a safe environment which allows them to explore, have fun and grow in all areas of their development.
