Hello, I’m Laura and I’m the proud owner of Little Ducklings Childminding which is based in Baddeley Green, Stoke-on-Trent. I am married to my husband Kieran and we have 2 children together. A little girl and a little boy. I offer a cosy home to home environment as I believe this is the most comforting for children and helps them feel most at ease when transitioning into an early years setting.

Whilst having lots of fun through play I will carefully plan and set up activities for the children to participate in which will help their learning and development. Their interests and needs will always be at the focus of attention.

We will have lots of free flow play opportunities and I will implement the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum to help your child to meet their developmental milestones during their time with me. I aspire to help each child to become happy, confident and to have fun through play. I like to work alongside families and help them in anyway possible.

Thank you for considering Little Ducklings. I would love to welcome you and your little one. If you would like to arrange a visit please complete the enquiry form or contact me on 07547635016
