Hello. My name is Jolene Yule (Jo). I am an OFSTED registered Childminder since 2007.

I live in the Beaumont Park area on border of Littlehampton and Rustington with my partner Brenton and our two sons. We have two black Labradors’ called Pitstop and Willow and we also have a Tropical Fish Tank full of interesting fish. We live in a 3-bedroom house with a fully enclosed back garden. Both inside and out are bursting with toys and equipment which I am regularly adding to, to create a home from home environment!

Both Brenton and I have been CRB checked and I have completed an ICP childminding course and hold an up to date Paediatric First Aid certificate. 

I have a Basic Food Hygiene certificate and have completed a Child Protection Course.  

I hold a full clean driving licence and my car is also insured for business use. 

I have been a Registered Childminder since June 2007 and I have public liability insurance.

I am registered to: "care for no more than 4 children under 8 years; of these, not more than 2 may be under 5 years, and of these, not more than 1 may be under 1 year at any one time".

During my last OFSTED inspection in February 2008 I was graded GOOD in all areas.

I provide a safe and stimulating environment where your child will be safe and happy. 

I have a wide range of toys and games to suit all ages and abilities. 

I provide quality childminding services from 8.00am – 6.00pm in my own home and babysitting services in your home from 7.30 pm onwards. I can look after Children from birth to 16 years old.

I offer the following facilities...

• Full use of the ground floor of my home (excluding the kitchen for babies and toddlers, for safety reasons).
• A kitchen for older Children to practice their cooking skills under close supervision!
• A quiet nap area for younger children to rest/ sleep (in a travel cot or buggy, as parents choose!)
• A fully enclosed garden complete with outdoor toys, and pretty flowers, herbs and vegetables to plant and grow!
• Use of a TV/Video/DVD and Wii (rationed for quiet times with parents approval only!)

Each day we aim to get out for some fresh air, be it for walks to the park, on the beach, trips to local baby and toddler groups, or in the garden. We regularly attend childminders groups and toddler groups and events at local Library, along with making full use of all the local area has to offer, including soft indoor play areas.

I am a member of the Morton Michael, and UKChildminders, an Internet-based support network.

Each month I produce a newsletter to keep you informed with what the Children have been up to, where we have been and other important information such as future dates for your diary!
