Coralie Manhes

I am a bilingual (French and English) former Head of Primary School and trained teacher with 20 years of experience working with EYFS and Primary-age children in London, Paris and New York. I have been Head of Primary School for the past 8 years but have now decided to become a childminder to welcome 2 children (aged 2 to 5) in my home alongside my 2 little girls aged 2 years old and 6 months. I will make sure your child feels safe, secure and cared for in our home. I love teaching both languages through play, songs, Montessori and sensory activities. Kids love it!

A typical day with us includes:

• the security of an established routine (welcome time, circle time, story time, snacks, lunch, nap/quiet time, scheduled activities such as cooking, yoga, painting...)
• the flexibility for fun educational play
• planned activities to improve communication and language skills in French and English
• the other EYFS areas of learning (literacy, numeracy, physical development, understanding the world, expressive arts and design and PSED)
• outdoor sensory play in our garden (sand pit, water play, mud kitchen)
• fun outings to local parks and activities
• homemade meals and healthy snacks catered to any dietary needs
• daily communication with parents
• learning journey diary

I am Ofsted registered, have full training in Paediatric 1st aid and Safeguarding among others.
