16 Dec 20 - Happy Christmas

As this dreadful COVID-19 pandemic year draws to a close we want to thank all our parents and children for supporting us to keep open whilst remaining as safe as possible from this dangerous virus. On a very happy note, we would also like to share the amazing gift we received of a sponsorship of an endangered orang-utan. We have now received a welcome pack including this cuddly version of our orang-utan called Jadela.

24 Jan 20 - Environmental Health Inspection

Today we were inspected by Fareham Borough Council Environmental Health for our Food Handling and have been assessed as fully meeting all the standards, requirements and categories by the inspector. This is a regular (between one and two annual scheduled inspection) for all childminders in the borough who serve cooked food to their children. Unlike restaurants and cafes etc, childminders are not given a grading by the inspector, rather, we are assessed as either meeting or failing to meet the standards. Again this year, we have been complemented on our continued efforts, our robust procedures and our dedication for excellence.

01 Jan 20 - Happy New Year
