My Summary
Ofsted Registered Childminder In Chislehurst.
About Me
Hello, my name is Alison, and
I am an Ofsted-registered childminder with over 20 years of experience.
When our eldest daughter was little, we had a wonderful childminder ourselves, so I know just how important it is to find someone you can completely trust — someone who’ll care for your child as if they were their own, and make every day safe, happy, and fun.
Our home is warm, caring, and family-based. The children learn through play, laughter, and exploration, getting school ready — whether that’s inside with educational toys and crafts or outside in our lovely safe garden with a decked play area. We follow the EYFS framework, and I make sure each child feels loved, supported, and well-fed with healthy, home-cooked meals.
We’re just a short walk from Elmstead Woods train station. Most days, we enjoy local playgroups, trips to the park, and other fun outings — all carefully planned and risk assessed so everyone has a great time.
I like to keep in touch with parents throughout the day by sharing photos, videos, and little updates — it’s lovely to see what your little one has been up to!
I accept employers’ childcare vouchers and the Government Tax-Free Childcare scheme and offer both 15 and 30 hours of funded childcare.
Written and verbal references are available if you’d like to hear from some of my lovely families. My last Ofsted inspection was in February 2025.
If you have any questions or would like to arrange a visit, please do give me a call or send me a message — I’d love to chat.
Kind regards,
Ali
My Experience
With 20 years of childminding experience, I’ve cared for children from newborns right up to after-school age. I’ve supported little ones through their first steps, potty training, starting school, and everything in between.
Each stage brings its own joys and challenges, and I love supporting children as they learn new skills, gain confidence, and grow into their own little personalities.
Building those long-term relationships with families is one of the most rewarding parts of my job.
My Qualifications
My family and I are all DBS checked, and I hold a full UK driving licence. I’m Ofsted registered and trained in paediatric first aid and safeguarding. I also keep all my childcare training up to date so I can provide the very best care for every child.
My Availability
Have availability for full and part time children. I currently offer a school run to Red Hill Primary School, and local nurseries.
