My Summary
Ofsted-Registered Childminder In Hornchurch | Nurturing, Safe & Engaging Care
About Me
Hi, I’m Kirsty—a caring, family-focused childminder with a passion for helping little ones grow and thrive. I’m 39, a mum to a fun-loving 7-year-old, and married to my wonderful husband who works as a Police Community Support Officer. We love family adventures to museums, zoos, and on nature walks. I offer a safe, nurturing, and healthy environment where children feel valued, supported, and happy every day.
My Experience
As a fully qualified childminder with over four years of dedicated experience—and an additional year as a childminding assistant—I bring both passion and professionalism to every aspect of my work. I’m proud to collaborate with a highly respected childminder who has over 40 years of industry experience. Together, we provide exceptional care in a warm, home-based setting where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to grow.
My training in paediatric first aid and safeguarding ensures that every child’s well-being is my top priority. I’ve also completed specialised vocational courses in childminding, giving me the tools and knowledge to create a nurturing, stimulating environment where children can learn, play, and thrive every day.
