My Summary
About Me
****Full time space available from September****
****Spaces available during the summer for holiday club****
Hello, my name is Kirsty. I am a mum of 3 children and first hand experience of being a sen mum to my autistic daughter. I have previously cared for vulnerable adults in the care industry with 5 years experience. Having had my two boys 18 months apart, I became a stay at home parent and I have loved every moment of it. Now that my youngest is getting a little older, I am excited to be able to offer little ones a home from experience which will aim to offer everything that we would want in a childcare setting; a rich, varied and safe space in which children can play, explore, learn and be creative.
My home offers a cosy relaxed environment which has lots of floor space both in and outdoors. We will also be doing lots of arts & crafts, themed weeks and lots of messy/sensory play. We also have the local woods at the back of the house, parks in walking distance and have accessible playgroups and libraries close by too.
I currently go to Zouch Academy daily so can potentially offer school drop offs/pick ups.
My Experience
I have previously cared for vulnerable adults in the care industry with 5 years experience. The adults I cared for had either physical or learning disabilities. My job supported them to be as independent as they possibly could while living in their own homes.
My Qualifications
BTEC Health & Social Care Level 3 Extended Diploma
Safeguarding
Pediatric first aid

We can't thank Mrs. Kirsty enough for everything she's done for our little one. Fabiano spent two months at Mrs. Kirsty's home, and it's been wonderful. Her home is cozy and has everything you need to keep the children entertained while they learn. From our first visit, how she showed us her home, talked about her family, and the activities she does with the children, everything has been perfect for us. Thank you so much, Mrs. Kirsty, for being a wonderful childminder for Fabiano.
