About AntoinetteBack to Top
Hello, I’m Antoinette. I'’m a mother of two teenagers and an experienced childminder based in Sandyford, with my own transport. For the past six months, I have been caring for three children with a lovely local family. Due solely to a change in the family’s circumstances, our childminding arrangement is now coming to an end, so I am looking for a new family to support. I’ve developed a wonderful bond with the children and have thoroughly enjoyed becoming part of their family life. My current employers are very happy to provide an excellent reference and to speak directly with prospective families. I’m naturally calm, friendly and warm, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with children. I like supporting them in a relaxed, positive way through routine, play, outdoor time, reading, crafts and activities, as well as taking them on outings, helping with school and activity drop-offs and collections, and preparing healthy meals and snacks for the children. My current employer recently wrote: “Overall our experience with Antoinette has been nothing short of extremely positive. She is caring, trustworthy, organised and understanding. We are devastated to finish our childminding relationship with her, due only to a change in our own personal circumstances. From one parent to another, Antoinette has been an incredible childminder, and I have no hesitancy in recommending her for a similar position.” My background spans more than 20 years across a mix of corporate and education-based roles, including financial services, event management, teaching and business development. I’ve lived overseas for nine years, including four years teaching English in Japan, which has given me strong communication skills and broad cultural awareness. I’m also a qualified yoga teacher, Reiki Master, and meditation and breathwork facilitator. I ran a home-based yoga and healing studio for ten years, and throughout my own children’s upbringing I always worked in a way that allowed me to be present and available during their early years—something I deeply value. I would love the opportunity to care for your child or children and become a warm, reliable and supportive presence in your family. I am available to discuss a new position immediately, with excellent recent references available. Warm regards, Antoinette
