About Us

My name is Caroline Perrin and I live in Taunton with my son Charlie, and our two cats. We live very close to French Weir park so we regularly take the opportunity to go on nature walks, feed the ducks and use the park.
Since studying my BTEC National Diploma I have spent my working life in childcare. I have enjoyed working in Nurseries and being a nanny for a family abroad.
I've had a range of experience with all ages of children.
I registered with Ofsted in September 2011, since opening we are now a very well established setting amongst families and other settings.
I regularly attend training courses and workshops to continue my professional development to ensure that I am always up to date and have the knowledge and understanding to ensure I give all the children the very best start in life.

Sarah first came to Little Stars in January 2014 on work experience while completing her Level 3 National Award in Children's Learning and Development. She formed such lovely relationships with the children, providing them with the love, care and attention that they need. We couldn't let her leave so she registered as a childminding assistant in September 2014.
Sarah has attended many relevant training courses to continue her professional development.
