About Me

My name is Kallie Barrington-Light. I am an OFSTED registered childminder. I am also a member of PACEY and the Somerset Childminding Network.

I have over 15 years childcare experience and have worked in nurseries and Pre Schools. I have knowledge and experience of EYFS and planning learning opportunities for all age groups. I also support heuristic/ natural play as part of a child's learning journey and don't mind getting messy along the way!

I have a BTEC National Diploma in Early Childhood Studies, a Paediatric First Aid Certificate and have attended numerous, childcare based, short courses as part of my professional development. I was inspected by OFSTED in August 2013 and was awarded “Good" in all areas of my practice.

I work with two assistants, my partner Steve and Sophie Phipps OR Claire Ansell. Sophie and Claire currently job share with Sophie working three days a week and Claire working two.

I have three wonderful children and started childminding shortly after my youngest daughter Emma was born.

Working with children of all ages is my passion and at Schoolfields we like to provide a home away from home where your child/children will be able continue their development while also having lots of fun and making new friends.

Have had to join this website just to review Kallie and her team, as I can’t see anywhere else to acknowledge how fantastic they all are!
I remember when I was looking for childcare for my first child, Kallie came recommended and ended up being the only place I looked at as I immediately felt comfortable and at home. We are so lucky to have Kallie and her team, they are all so kind, caring and helpful. The children have a great time with them and are never anxious to attend, always eager to go to “Kallie’s-day”. There is no one and nowhere else I feel as confident leaving my children alone for the day and I don’t think there ever will be! The children develop so much in her care it’s almost unbelievable, she and her team are more than a childminder and provide so much - so many different experiences and so much learning.
I don’t think Kallie understands how much she means to some of us, she certainly doesn’t get or take enough credit for all the happy children she helps raise!
