Our Journey
Montessori Childminders is an OFSTED registered childcare provider offering full time daycare to children aged 2 to 6, with additional services offered for 7 to 10 year olds.
​​
Joyce Aryee Al-Araimy BSc., our founder, has been in the business of childcare for more than 30 years. Coming from a long line of teachers within the family, Ms Al-Araimy left her work as a secretary to enter the world of childcare after the birth of her first son. Ms Al-Araimy went on to have a daughter and second son whilst furthering her studies to become a knowledgeable and highly proficient Montessori qualified childcare practitioner.
Ms Al-Araimy has worked with children of all ages; having been a childminder before becoming a tutor, Montessori nursery teacher, kindergarten teacher, and most recently an exam invigilator at a secondary school. With this extensive experience Ms Al-Araimy is entering the childminding market once again but this time bringing the addition of her Montessori teaching expertise.
​​​​
Her desire is to provide quality childcare for parents, caregivers and families, creating a holistic environment without barriers for all children, embracing the Montessori method with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).

We invite you and your child to embark on a transformative journey with Montessori Childminders as we provide the tools and support for the healthy development of young minds, and the activities that nurture emotional, intellectual, and physical growth, allowing bright young minds to flourish.
