Dawns Childminding setting is open Monday to Friday 7.00 am to 5.30 pm. We offer an excellent childcare setting for children from birth to Five years.
Our aim at Dinnington First School is to provide a happy, stimulating environment where children will be encouraged to co-operate wholeheartedly with other children and staff who will help them to develop fully their individual, intellectual, physical, emotional and spiritual potential.
At my childminding setting I provide a large playroom with a range of toys and activities for all ages and stages of development. I also have a large garden with a selection of outdoor toys for children to play with.
My name is Erica and I live in Jesmond with my husband Stephen and our two children. I previously worked as a children’s nurse so have lots of experience working with children of all ages. I started childminding in April 2026.
I offer a warm, nurturing, and home-from-home childcare service. Children feel safe, valued, and supported to thrive. My setting provides high-quality care in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). I support children’s learning and development through a balance of activities and child-led play.
The school is a Community Co-educational First School. The building has a large hall and adjoining dining area. We have six classrooms for Key stages 1 & 2. The Foundation Stage Unit for Nursery and Reception age children consists of three classrooms and an outside play area / outdoor classroom.
We provide on-site wraparound care during term time for children at St Charles’ Catholic Primary School. We also offer a holiday club.
We provide a safe and stimulating environment for children's learning and development.
