Provider Name: | Dalders, Mrs Dawn (The Secret Garden) |
Provider Type: | Childminder |
Service Description: | Full / part time care and early education with emphasis on the outdoor environment, stories, rhymes and songs. Everyday activities include feeding the birds, planting, watering, harvesting and cooking. Children get a cooked meal and fruit snacks every day, with the occasional picnic in the summer- special diets catered for within reason. Each child has a 'Learning Journey' which is shared with parents. Pre covid times, we held an annual Open Day where we invited parents, siblings, and grandmas and grandads, we will resume this as soon as it is safe enough for all. We have a private WhatsApp group so that parents can see what their children are doing every day, and they can comment and contact each other. |
