Childminder in Livingston

My Summary
About Me
Early mornings and evenings available.
Summer Days Childminding
I stay in Deans and have several years experience as a Childminder as well as working as an Early Years Practitioner in a local nursery.
During the day I take the children to places like toddler groups, the library, bookbugs, soft play, the park, Mill Farm and The Five Sisters Zoo with day trips further away during the school holidays.
At home we regularly bake, do crafts, reading, playing in the garden, picnics, sand and waterplay and explore the local area and any other activities the children show an interest in.
I believe its important for children to feel safe and happy and I aim to care for them in a safe, caring and homely environment with plenty of outdoor play.

My daughter has loved going to Kirsty's since we moved to Livingston, She's so friendly and relaxed and she made our daughter feel like part of her family while she was there.
I would recommend her to anyone :-)
