Susan Copeman Childminder

I have been married to my husband Darren a chemical process technician for 13 years and we have two children Emily 11 and William who is 9. I worked as a chef for 13 years before starting my family. I started childminding in 2006 when my own children began full time education. I have cared for children from 6 weeks to 11yrs and have experience caring for a child who is milk intolerant. I am a member of the national childminders association and Hartlepool's Quest for quality scheme as a member of this scheme I will be visited regularly by Hartlepool's early year's officers to ensure I am delivering consistent quality childcare. My professional development is important to me and I attend regular training courses keeping me up to date with current trends and legislation.
