Michela Jones (MJ Childcare)

Ofsted Rated - Good


Hello! My name is Michela, and I am an Ofsted-registered childminder based in Plumstead. I work alongside my wonderful assistant, Elysee, who is French-speaking, giving children the opportunity to learn and experience French naturally through play, songs, stories, and everyday conversation. I am passionate about providing high-quality childcare in a warm, safe, and nurturing home-from-home environment. I believe every child is unique, and I tailor my care to meet each child's individual needs, helping them grow in confidence while feeling happy, secure, and valued. Building strong, positive relationships with parents is at the heart of my setting, ensuring we work together to support every child's development.


Our days are filled with fun, learning, and adventure! We enjoy messy play, arts and crafts, sensory activities, role play, cooking, music, story time, and outdoor exploration. We regularly visit local parks, libraries, children's centres, and other places within the community, helping children discover the world around them while developing their confidence, curiosity, and social skills.


Before becoming a childminder, I worked as a foster sub-carer, where I completed training in safeguarding, confidentiality, record keeping, and supporting children's wellbeing. I also worked in a Montessori setting, which has inspired my approach to encouraging independence, creativity, and learning through play.


I offer reliable school pick-up services, funded childcare places (subject to eligibility), and flexible childcare to support local families. My aim is to provide a caring, stimulating environment where children can make friends, create wonderful memories, develop new skills, and build a lifelong love of learning. I look forward to welcoming your family and providing a place where your child can learn, play, explore, and thrive every day.
