Information for families in Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole

Fry, Mrs Linda Christina

I have been minding since 2004. I have 4 children of my own, 2 have left home and my adult twins are left. We live in a large home which has a very large open plan space in which I mainly childmind. I have acquired lots of training including a Certificate in Childminding Practice (Level 3), First Aid, SEN and Inclusion and many more. My aim is to provide a welcoming, safe and stimulating environment, to give the children the opportunity to develop, feel valued, secure and develop positive self esteem and confidence in themselves.
