Another new customer at Childminders in East Ardsley welcomes Lilymae to our extended family.
Totally flexible childcare work for us here at Buttercup Lane Childminders.
So today is your Birthday and Buttercup Lane Childminders bring you this little poem.
Make a wish and give it wings
Dreams of bright and beautiful things
Dance through all the fun filled hours
Don’t forget to smell the flowers
Share some love and birthday cake
All life joys are yours to take
And when evening comes to view
Thanks your lucky stars you’re you
Happy Birthday from everyone at your Childminders in East Ardsley – Buttercup Lane Childminders.
We have been to Oakwell Hall today, near Batley it has great walks and lovely scenery we visited the park and play areas, the huge play slide and tyre swing – it was so much fun.
Oakwell Hall now a living museum run by the Batt Family since the 1696’s was built by John Batt in 1583. For further detail <a href=”http://www.friendsofoakwellhall.org.uk/http://”>follow this link</a> as we are sure you will have just as much as we all had today. Baby Raine, Luca, Autumn, Archie, Neo, Leo & Karl, Lia and Kirsten all had a jolly wonderful time.
Oakwell Halls and gardens great for childminders
We have had a fantastic April and here at Buttercup Lane Childminders we welcome “Baby Raine” to our extended child care family.
We are getting quite a lot of interest for September so please if your thinking about using a childminder in East Ardsley make that call sooner rather than later as contracts and numbers are filling up fast. Even if we at Buttercup Lane Childminders cant accommodate you we have links in the community that will be able to help. So please make that call today.
We are also broadening our pick up and drop off services this september to include BlackGates Primary school… contracts permitting so watch this space for further details.
