My Summary
About Me
Hello my name is Kyla, I have over 20 years experience in caring for children aged from 0 upwards, including my own wonderful family. I live with my Husband and our 4 lovely children, a girl aged 12, a boy aged 11 years and another boy aged 8 and a baby of 15 months.
I am kind, considerate, funny, love the outdoors, feeding ducks, exploring new places, going to zoos, caring, fair and loyal.
Also exploring days out like Alice Holt, National Trust, Wisley, Wellington Country Aprk, Jakes Tri-lakes, playing parks and soft play.
I am exploring new classes to educate and explore with the children. So trying out music classes and forest adventure classes.
I love yoga and meditation and going for walks.
My family, our dog (golden retriever) and I have been living in the Tongham area for 3 years now.
I have a lovely home with a large enclosed garden. Love being outdoors so we have a lot of outdoor toys, mud kitchen, swings, ride on toys. I also have a lovely play room with different toys for different ages.
I have lovely references from very happy parents of children that I have cared for over the years for you to read. Feel free to be in touch to ask any questions about me and my availability. I will be happy to meet with you to discuss your requirements.
Thank you for reading my profile and I look forward to meeting you.

My girls completely adore Kyla. From their first day with her they didn't want to come home.
Kyla is an absolute natural with them and treats them exactly as I do as a parent, it is literally a home from home for them.
Plenty of exciting walks, sticking and drawing, plentiful of toys to play with and all the attention they require. My youngest daughter has a food allergy and she is perfect with dealing with it and making sure there are alternatives available for my daughter.
What I would do without this woman in our life I do not know! If you are needing a childminder please take the plunge and meet Kyla. I promise you will not look back! My girls always talk about their times with her!!!!

I was very impressed with Kyla as soon as I met her, my son would always stick by me around new people, but when we first met Kyla he felt safe and would explore her home without any encouragement.
Kyla has such a lovely warm and welcoming vibe and I can't thank her enough for looking after my son. He was excited to see her and was always happy and content when he was picked up. He adored the adventures and activities he done with her, and loved the fact she has a dog.

Kyla is very warm and welcoming. She helped us where she could to make our day with our little one easy. He didnt cry once when we dropped him off or when we picked him up. He was excited to be dropped off.

We cannot rate Kyla highly enough! She has been so wonderful with our daughters. She does lots of arts, crafts and messy play with them and spends lots of time out in the fresh air. She plans lots of activities and always has good ideas and advise. Our girls absolutely love her and have gained so much from her. They go to parks, farms, softplay and country parks, to name but a few places.
I found myself with a new job and going back to work very suddenly. I was very anxious at leaving my girls 3 yrs and 9 months, as I have always been there for them, both are fairly clingy and can be quite slow to warm up to new people and situations. Kyla has been a godsend, she has been so communicative with updates and photos, it really has taken a weight off my shoulders. She has been really flexible too, as my husband works shifts.
Thank you Kyla for making what was a very daunting time for our family much easier and less stressful.
