Personal Details
Hi, my name is Christie Burnett. I live in the village of Lower
Compton with my partner Andy and our two children Ashley who
is 5 and Sam 18 months. We have a tropical fish tank
which the children love to watch.
I used to be a PA and previous
to that I used to work in Marketing so I am organised and am
able to deal with all kinds of situations that arise.
I am Ofsted-registered
and both
my partner and I have been CRB checked. I am a member of the
NCMA and also have my public insurance with them. My
first Ofsted inspection took place in January 2010 where I
was awarded overall “good” which I am very pleased and proud
of.
My childminding business is called
Cheeky Chops.
Typical activities
I have transformed my good sized
conservatory into a play room which offers all facilities you
would expect to find within a child care setting.
Children also have the full use of all of the rooms in my
house.
Whilst at Cheeky Chops, your
child will immediately sense the loving home-from-home environment.
I care for my own children to a very high standard and also
the other children in my care. I love to get out and about as
do my children so we will always try to walk wherever we go
whether to school or just for an outing around the local area.
I complete a contact book for
all my pre-school children where I record how much sleep, food
etc. your child has consumed and a brief outline of what we
have done that day. All children under 5 in my care have their own Learning
Journey where I record observations, photos of your child taking
part in activities and days out.
I attend Cherhill Toddler Group
on Mondays and Little Acorns on Fridays. Other activities through
the week include lots of walking in the fresh air, painting,
making/playing with play dough, completing various activities
depending on what project we are doing at the time, arts and
craft, planting seeds and watching them grow in the veggie plot,
general gardening, cooking to name but a few.
Training and experience
● NVQ Level 3 in Childcare, Learning and Development.
● ICP training (CACHE Level
3 certificate in Childminding practice)
● First Aid in Early Years
● Behaviour Management
● Child Protection
I have nearly completed my NVQ
Level 3 course and am in the process of looking into further
training. I have completed an Early Years First Aid course,
Behaviour Management, Food Safety Level 3. I am always
looking at ways to extend my knowledge so I take part in
Wiltshire Council training courses and keeping up to date
with others I feel are beneficial me and the children in my
care.
Contractual Details
I work from 7:30am to 6:00pm
and I take between 2 and 4 weeks holidays a year at no
fee. I will always try to give as much notice as possible. Where
a child is away from my setting for a holiday I will charge
half fees.
I charge £3.20 per hour. I do
not charge a retainer to secure your child's place through holidays
but do operate term time or holiday only contracts. TD
days, sickness of parent or child are charged at full fees.
Vacancies
I drop off and collect from
Cherhill Pre-School and Cherhill C of E Primary. I will also
consider drop off and collection to other local schools,
pre-schools and nurseries in the area.
Please contact me for my
update vacancies.
