Claire Potter - Childminder
was a mother who was stuck at home because she could not find flexible employment in the DE5 area of Ripley that would allow her to work school hours and continue to look after her own family. So in 2006 she started to look into Childminding. After a lot of hard work preparing this new venture The Playhouse was created and she became NCMA & Ofsted registered.
Her first working week was 4th June 2007 and involved caring for two children.
By the end of November 2007 she had eight children registered.
Currently she has several registered children attending throughout the week and/or during school holidays.
At busy times Claire has an Assistant registered to help provide additional care when needed.
