My Summary
About Me
Welcome to Tt’s Childminding
Opening autumn 2026
Childminder Profile
My name is Tina Luscombe, and I am the owner of Tt’s Childminding in Wainscott, Kent.
I have over 40 years of professional childcare experience, working as a daily nanny within private family homes. Throughout my career, I have cared for children from newborn babies through to 12 years of age, supporting their individual needs and development at every stage of childhood.
In addition to my nannying experience, I previously worked as a registered childminder from 2010 to 2015, providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating home-based environment for children and their families.
I am currently in the process of completing my Ofsted registration, with Tt’s Childminding due to open in Autumn 2026, subject to registration approval.
My Childcare Approach
I believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, respected, and encouraged to reach their full potential. My aim is to provide a warm, caring, and welcoming environment where children can learn, develop confidence, and have fun through play and everyday experiences.
I understand the importance of building strong relationships with both children and parents and believe that working in partnership helps children thrive.
Experience with Babies
Caring for babies has been a significant part of my childcare career. I have extensive experience caring for children from birth onwards and understand the importance of providing a calm, loving, and responsive environment during the early years.
I am experienced in:
* Establishing and maintaining routines
* Bottle feeding and weaning support
* Sleep routines and settling techniques
* Nappy changing and personal care
* Supporting physical, emotional, and social development
* Encouraging communication and language skills
* Providing sensory and age-appropriate play experiences
* Supporting parents through key developmental stages
I recognise that every baby is unique and work closely with parents to ensure continuity of care between home and the childminding setting.
Experience with Toddlers and Older Children
I have many years of experience supporting toddlers and school-aged children through important stages of learning and development.
Activities and experiences will be planned around children’s interests and abilities and may include:
* Arts and crafts
* Story time and early literacy activities
* Outdoor play and physical development
* Music and singing
* Sensory and imaginative play
* Educational games and activities
* Support with school readiness skills
* Homework support where appropriate
What Families Can Expect
At Tt’s Childminding, families can expect:
* A safe and secure home-from-home environment
* Individualised care tailored to each child
* Positive behaviour management
* Open and honest communication
* A strong partnership with parents
* Activities that support learning through play
* Healthy routines and opportunities for outdoor play
* Care delivered with kindness, patience, and professionalism
I look forward to welcoming children and families to Tt’s Childminding and providing high-quality childcare in a nurturing and supportive environment.
