Hi my name is Natasha, I am mum to 4yr old twin boys, Owen and Logan. We will be moving to Colchester in August 2010. My husband is serving in the Army and will be commencing a 3yr posting. We have one friendly dog who is kept seperate from minded children at all times. I am willing to integrate him with minded children if parents particually require this. I have been childminding for three years, Prior to living in England we spent some time in Germany where I was able to care for other service persons children also. After moving to England, I completed my Ofsted Registration. Other than the experience above, We enjoy mystery bus rides, playing in the garden as well as nature walks and endless creative and messy art. I have suitable toys and equipment to cater for a varied age range. I am Ofsted Registered.
