Sonia Hackworth - Pebbles & Play (Whitehead)

I’m a proud mum to two small children aged 4 years and 1 year, and I bring over 8 years of experience working with children of various ages and needs. I also have valuable experience supporting children with SEN and working as a behavioural specialist.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, which has deepened my understanding of how crucial early upbringing is in a child’s development. I’m passionate about nurturing children’s self-esteem, confidence, and emotional wellbeing, and I aim to provide a caring, supportive, and stimulating environment where every child can thrive.

My childminding service will be run from my home, which includes a purpose-built playroom at the bottom of the garden designed especially for the children to learn and play in a safe, engaging space. I also hope to provide healthy, nutritious meals and snacks, along with pick-up and drop-off services from Whitehead Primary School.

My qualifications also include Level 2 British Sign Language, helping me support inclusive communication, and I am committed to meeting each child’s individual needs.

I truly love working with children and believe that positive early experiences play an intricate role in shaping confident, happy individuals. 💛

If you’re looking for childminding from July 2026, or know someone who is, please feel free to get in touch with any of your childminding needs. I’d love to chat! 😊
