Intro

Welcome to Laura Oldfield Childminding, a place where every child is cherished and every moment is an opportunity to learn and grow. Nestled in the heart of our warm and inviting home, we offer a nurturing environment designed to foster creativity, exploration, and most importantly, the joy of being a child.

With years of experience in child care, I understand the unique needs of each child and is dedicated to providing personalized care that ensures every child feels safe, loved, and encouraged to discover the world around them. Drawing from a rich tapestry of learning activities, children under our care are not only looked after, but are also empowered to develop essential life skills, confidence, and a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

We believe that the best learning experiences happen when children are engaged, curious, and having fun. That's why our approach to childminding revolves around play-based learning, meaningful interactions, and fostering positive relationships. Whether it's through arts and crafts, outdoor adventures, or simply reading a story together, we are committed to making each day a special one for your child.

We invite you to explore our website, get to know more about our services, and discover the difference that a home-based childminding environment can make in your child's early years. Join us in creating memories, building strong foundations, and nurturing tomorrow's leaders, one child at a time.
