Gemma Lander Child-minding and Baby sitting services

Welcome to my page, I have created this page to help share information about myself and my business with other parents and to help allow people to contact me. Please note that all photos on this page are for legal liability reasons only of my own children.

I have been childminding now for 8 years, babysitting for even longer and I have loved every minute. In this time I have cared for children ranging from 9 months to 10 years.

Being a lover of the outdoors we usually spend a minimum of 50% of our days outside either at the beach, forest, park or in the garden. This is often our favourite time of the day.

I organise activities every week to both entertain and encourage every child to develop to the best of their abilities. these activities are usually based around a weekly or monthly topic that parents are advised about in advance. Weekly activities usually include:

Arts and crafts
Cooking
Library Visits
Toddler Groups
Swimming
Music
and much more!

As well as taking all of the compulsory qualifications necessary to work in England & Scotland I have voluntarily attended additional courses and workshops to help me improve on the standard of care I provide, I have detailed these courses below;
