Denise Howard

My name is Denise Howard. I live with my husband in a bungalow, South Shore, Blackpool. I am a clean and tidy person and take pride in my home. I have two grown up daughters of my own and five grandaughters and 2 great-granddaughter. I offer a friendly family enviroment.
I have been a childminder for over 20 years and fully ofsted registered. I have a large rear garden, mainly grassed area, consisting of a play area and playhouses to help children to develop in all areas. I follow the EYFS to help your child to make progress in their learning and development and to support them to be ready for school. I am able to be flexible in the care I offer as I keep to low ratios so can usually accomodate shift patterns. my general hours of operation are 7.30-6pm but may be able to have some flexibility.
I am happy to offer full or part time hours on a all year or term time only basis and for older children holiday cover. I will also work Bank Holidays and can offer tempory cover/places. I ensure that I keep up to date with all mandatory training on a regular basis and hold a full Paediatric first aid qualification. I also attend a variety of additional training to keep up to date and develop my skills.
