“Hello my name is Kremena Gavrilova,
I am Ofsted registered childminder running a Montessori inspired setting in Beckton.
I have 2 assistants (one of my assistants is a qualified speech therapist and the other one has Level 3 Early years qualification). I am qualified Montessori teacher- Level 4 and I have Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) Level 6. Montessori philosophy of education and child development is at the core of our setting. We have fully equipped Montessori room, spacious and beautiful outdoor space and separate room where children sleep. Our children spend a lot of time outdoors (our own garden, local parks, playgrounds, farm). Our setting has only wooden toys and materials most of which are open-ended educational toys. The activities are age appropriate, designed to support children’s fine and gross motor skills, hand eye coordination, dexterity of the hand, mental ability of visual discrimination of dimension, colours, shapes, patterns etc. Our inclusive setting develops our children’s knowledge and understanding of the world by celebrating festivals, inviting community people in the setting, planting seeds to observe the nature’s life cycles etc.
Outcome of Ofsted inspection: Good
