About Clare
Personal Details
My name is Clare, I am an OFSTED registered childminder and I live with my Husband and three children. We live very close to Barden Lake, Tonbridge Park, Hayesden Country Park, as well as Tonbridge Railway Station, which enables me to provide a wide variety of local activites to children. At home I have an enclosed play area with trampoline and other outdoor equipment such as bikes, scooters, and ballgames. Inside we have toys, games and activities to cater for all age groups, I have an aquarium and a hamster called cookie. Our house is a strictly smoke-free environment.
A fundamental aim of mine is to work to build a productive partnership with parents of minded children in order to provide all children with a clean, safe, loving, home-like environment where everyone feels valued. I provide a caring and stimulating environment, giving the children the opportunity to develop in a warm and friendly, homely atmosphere.
I am able to accept childcare vouchers which some parents may be eligible for via their employers such as Busy Bees and Accor.
