My name is Fiona Hogg and I am a NICMA registered childminder in Portstewart. I am originally from Whitehead in Co. Antrim and moved to Portstewart in August 2011. I started childminding in May 2013 and am registered to look after 6 children at any one time (but only 3 can be under school age). I have been fully trained in Health and Safety / Safe Guarding Children and Paediatric First Aid
I have 2 children Sophie (17yr) and Jodie (16yr). We live in a detached house in a very quiet Cul de sac in Portstewart, with a large enclosed back garden. Our home is smoke-free. We have 1 guinea pigs which are kept in a hutch in the garage and 2 small chihuahua dogs.
My mother is my Registered Assistant, we have both, along with my husband, been Access NI cleared, police checked and vetted.
I provide a safe, fun, homely and most importantly a loving environment for all our children. I treat all our children the same, as if they are my own, and teach them love and respect for each other. As a Registered Childminder I provide a guaranteed standard of care for your child(ren) and peace of mind for you as parents. I am also regularly inspected by a social worker (once a year) to ensure that I maintain that standard.
Our week usually includes trips to Parent & toddler groups so the children got lots of time to mix and play with other children, indoor play areas, various parks and the local library. We also have days at home for free play, arts and crafts and playing games. On school holidays we love to do special trips to farms, the beach, we are vertigo, W5, taking our scooters to Portrush and popping into Coastal Zone to see the fish, going to bigger parks like Megaw in Ballymoney, People's park in Ballymena, forests, days at home with the swimming pool/water table/sand tray and lots more!
I have a 7 seater car so that I can transport all children to/from school. I provide full time, part time and after school spaces. After school pick-ups and morning drop offs can be provided if required. I hold full public liability insurance and a full clean driving licence, with business insurance. I have suitable seats for all age groups - booster seats, high back boosters and infant seats.
The fees charged depend on your days/hours and any additional services required, you can find more information on this on my "Fees" page and these would be discussed at an initial informal meeting.
If you have any question or would like to come and meet me and my little ones or view my home you are welcome to do so, please feel free to contact me on:
