My Summary
A Safe, Caring And Nurturing Environment Where Learning Is Fun
About Me
Hello
I am a Ofsted registered childminder. I live with my husband and 2 children. I love cooking, travel and outdoor activities. I am a caring, kind, loving and patient individual who has been childminding for 15 years and really enjoy what I do. I find pleasure in seeing the kids happy and do my best to make them feel secure. I like to work in partnership with parents to help achieve the best outcome for children in my care.
Diversity and inclusion are fundamental values in my setting. We believe that every child regardless of background, deserves a nurturing and inclusive environment where they feel valued, respected and supported in their unique identities and experiences.
Ensuring the safety and well-being of children is fundamental to the ethos of our childcare setting. Our setting is equipped with diverse range of resources that enable children to develop and reach their full potential.
I have a dedicated playroom for my childminding children and a large garden that we use on a daily basis. I cook a variety of meals such as fish stew, chicken risotto, chicken curry, pasta dishes and more. Most of my children have come from recommendation. I offer breakfast, lunch, dinner and 2 snacks during the day. We regularly go on outings to the farm, parks, library, soft play, the woods etc. I work with assistants so I do not take my under 5s on the school run.
I live 10-15 minutes walk to Bromley South Train Station and Shortlands Train Station. You can also park on my street which usually have lots of parking.
My Experience
I have looked after children from the age of 3 months to 11 years in the last 15 years. I have worked for some wonderful families, some of whom I am still in touch with. I have also cared for my 2 daughters who are now at secondary school, and I am extremely proud of them and their achievements.
My Qualifications
I have a degree in Managing Business Information, I also have a level 3 in home based childcare. I am also trained in first aid, chid protection, Child Development, Food and Nutrition, observations, early years foundation Stage and more.

My daughter has attended Kelly's childcare since she was 6 months old and she is now nearly 3 years old. I feel extremely lucky to have found Kelly to help me with my daughter. It's so comforting to know that she is happy being with Kelly and her team while I have to work, and she says to me that Kelly is her best friend!
The children do educational activities every day and when the weather is good there are outings to the park, library, a nearby farm and other things which my daughter loves.
Kelly always serves a good balanced diet to the children. I haven't seen any fast food on the menu. Lots of fruit and nutritious meals.
I recently had another baby and Kelly was so helpful during this time. She helped my daughter understand by reading books to her about new baby brother.
I highly recommend Kelly and her team. She provides a home away from home environment with very caring and attentive staff.
If you're looking for a childminder in the Shortlands/Bromley area I'm not entirely sure why you'd bother looking for anyone other than Kelly.
My daughter has been going since she was around 11 months old and has just turned 3. Kelly and her team are FABULOUS. She provides nutritious meals and snacks all day (I've been there in the morning and seen freshly cooked fishy curry, meatballs, mixed vegetables on the stove, and fruit platters - served like you would expect for adults).
Kelly takes the children on day trips either by car (if you consent) or in giant prams to local parks. The children are actively encouraged to learn about nature, as well as how to play together nicely indoors. My daughter's vocabulary at 3 is almost better than some adults I know at this point.
Kelly's house is set up perfectly. There is a large garden and different rooms for different aged children. There are also books EVERYWHERE, and they read at least one book together every day. I know the children paint together and my daughter particularly likes "show and tell" and "circle time".
We receive daily whatsapp updates on what the children have learnt and eaten, as well as quick updates at drop off and collection. At the end of last year we were even given a report, which was more like a book, providing a lot of detail about different development areas, where the children are, and next steps. Prior to my daughter turning 3, we received written daily updates in a dedicated children's book.
I honestly couldn't recommend Kelly enough. I'm only sad that our time might come to an end soon as my daughter is staring pre-school (although I'm holding on by a thread that she can continue even for a few hours!).
Kellys Childminding Service is the most wonderful place for children to develop, grown and thrive.
Kelly and her team have created a calm, incredibly warm and safe environment in which all the children in her care benefit from her knowledge, attention to detail and love.
My youngest boy has been with Kelly from 10months and he is now over 3. Under her expert care he has thrived. From day 1 Daniel felt comfortable and happy in Kelly's care. Her settling period was so organised and gave us so much support as parents. Since he joined Kelly's he has formed the most brilliant friendships, his confidence has grown, and he is thoroughly happy. Kelly is always able to share her expertise with parents and gives detailed feedback daily with regards to the children. My oldest son has been to Kelly's for breakfast club and collected from school since reception, and he loves the fun activities and healthy, homemade and substantial meals that Kelly prepares.
Kelly's setting really is a home from home, her and her brilliant team and her lovely family welcome you in as part of the extended family and the genuine care and love shown towards the children is honestly fantastic. I could not recommend Kelly highly enough, she is amazing.
Our daughter has been in Kelly and her assistants care between the ages of 12 months and 26 months so over a year. We’re so sad to leave her setting but moving away.
Our daughter has blossomed in her setting. We arrive to big smiles and she’s always been really happy there.
Gorgeous big garden for the summer. Hot, healthy meals and plenty of snacks keep the, going all day. She comes home every day with cute artwork.
We love that Kelly’s house Operates likes a small nursery but with intimate care too, the best of both worlds.
Most importantly you can tell the ladies all really care about the kids and form bonds with them.
We only hope our daughter likes her next nursery as much as Kelly’s.
Thanks for every Kelly, Lucy, Shirley & Chizi, we’ll miss you!
