Welcome to Kiddies Patch. My name is Lyndsey and I am an Ofsted registered childminder, rated Good. I am located in the Castlemead area of Trowbridge.
I provide a safe, supportive and fun learning environment for your child, with many resources and planned activities such as arts & crafts, building and construction, puzzles, reading, letters and sounds, role-play, cooking, and much more. I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage when planning the activities. All activities are planned around individual needs and interests and all areas of learning are covered.
My home is within walking distance of a park, woods and lovely country walks.
I have a dedicated childminding playroom, with a toilet/changing area next to it. I have a secure outside area. large range of resources to aid in activities enabling me to fully cover the all areas of learning. My home has been inspected by Ofsted and all of the downstairs is available for the children to play and learn in throughout the day.
We go out and about in the community Daily visiting places such as Soft Play, local parks, the farm, museum, library, Longleat safari park and many other clubs and events. I have close contacts with other local childminders and we meet up once or twice a week, as a result of this the children in my care are given the opportunity to socialise with larger groups of children.
Please take the time to look through the pages of my website and if you would like any further information, or an informal chat please contact me.
A typical day at Kiddies Patch includes creating masterpieces with arts & crafts and painting materials, role-play and dressing up, a walk in the woods detecting wildlife or a visit to the park, usually ending the day with some quiet time reading books.
