Cuddly Ducklings - Childminder in Morden

My name is Marta. I am proud mum of two amazing girls, 13 year old Nicola and Laura, who is 19. I have been working with children for the past 22 years and I can’t imagine doing anything else. Before I started childminding I was working at primary school as a Teaching Assistant and Cover Supervisor across Early Years and KS1. Those 3 years provided me with countless opportunities to learn and develop. Working alongside amazing teachers and attending various courses and training sessions helped me to enrich my knowledge and qualifications.
Teaching class on my own when supplying the teacher helped me to learn how to manage big group of children and deal with challenging behaviour. Working across EYFS and KS1 curriculum helped me to stay on top of all the changes taking place in education.
Before I started working at school I worked for Merton Council as a Language Assistant providing interpreting services as well as short term English Language boosters for EAL students across the schools in Sutton and Merton.
I also worked with little children (3 months and up) first as a nanny for almost 3 years and then as a nursery nurse at Day Nursery for nearly 5 years. Within that time I achieved most of my major qualifications, Degree in Pedagogy (Children’s Development and Teaching) and NVQ Level 2 in Childcare and Children’s Development.
I love working with children, supporting their little “huge” steps and celebrating their daily achievements. It’s one of the most inspiring and rewarding jobs and I can’t imaging doing anything else.
Paulo Coelho said “ A child can teach an adult three things: To be happy for no reason; To always be curious; To fight tirelessly for something” and I can’t agree more.
