Stay & Play Childcare

Services

Flexible childcare tailored to your family’s needs, providing the best care and a nurturing experience for every child.

About Me

My name is Jemma Crichton, and I am the proud founder of Wynyard Tiny Tots, offering childminding services to families in the local area. As a mother of three wonderful children, aged 1 to 15, I bring not only hands-on parenting experience but also a deep passion for nurturing young minds and fostering their development.

With over 13 years of experience in the education sector, I have worked across all year groups from EYFS to Year 6 in both schools and nurseries. My expertise includes supporting children from diverse backgrounds and abilities, including those with English as an Additional Language (EAL) and Special Educational Needs (SEN).

I am a fully registered and Ofsted-inspected childminder, committed to maintaining the highest standards of care and safety. I hold comprehensive child liability insurance, and both my husband and I have undergone enhanced DBS checks. Certificates and documentation are available upon request for your peace of mind.

A Typical Day

Below are examples of activities children typically engage in during the day. However, activities may be adapted to accommodate individual children’s needs, weather conditions, seasonal themes, or other relevant factors. While we strive to create a homely and nurturing environment, we also aim to provide a well-rounded balance of indoor and outdoor activities to support children’s development and enjoyment.

Our operational hours are Monday to Friday, and we offer the following session options:

  • Full Day: 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM
  • Half Day (Morning): 8:00 AM – 1:00 PM
  • Half Day (Afternoon): 1:00 PM – 6:00 PM

We prioritise flexibility and adaptability to ensure the best possible care and experience for all children in our setting.
