Hello,
My name is Eileen, I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder. I live in a large family house with a garden in Chiswick with my husband Dave and my two adult daughters. We have two pet rag doll cats named Darcey and Timmy and a labrador called Saffie..
I have wanted to work with children for as long as I can remember. I seem to have the 'knack' when it comes to children, so it came as no surprise to those who knew me that I would go into the childcare sector.
I was born and raised in Cardiff, South Wales. Upon finishing school I enrolled on a Youth Training Scheme (YTS) studying childcare. I then completed a diploma in Nursery Nursing (N.N.E.B) at Bangor Technical College. After finishing college I ran an English speaking pre-school in Anglesey, North Wales for 3 years as well as working part-time as a nanny. In 1997 I moved to London working as a nanny, a position that I held for over 10 years. When I had my first child I decided to register as a childminder, and have not looked back since.
I have a Foundation Degree in Early Years which I completed in 2014 and was awarded a 2:1 BA Honours Degree in Childhood and Youth Studies (2016)
