What we do

My name is Geraldine I run jellybeans childminding, I have been a registered childminder since 2001 providing a warm, friendly and safe environment for children from birth to 12 years.
I work with my partner Wayne and daughter Chloe who are also registered childminders with CIW. We all hold our pediatric first aid, safeguarding and food hygiene certificates and make sure that we are up to date with relevant training.

Our house is organised in a child friendly way that aims to promote learning, development alongside having fun.

Charges for childminding are agreed between the parent and the childminder, and will vary depending on the number of hours your child is cared for.

Who do we support

I have a wide range of resources for all ages. We have recently received a welsh government grant which enabled us to purchase a lot of natural play equipment (that the children absolutely love).
