About Me

SPACES AVALIABLE FROM SEPTEMBER 2025

My name is Kyra, I am an Ofsted registered Childminding. I live with my husband and 4 children - two boys one 13 years old & one 12 years old and two girls one 8 years old & one 3 years old. I live In Basildon 5 minutes from the town centre and 10 minutes from Basildon Hospital in a house with a large garden which has a sheltered patio area for outdoor play in all weathers.

I am an outgoing and friendly person who enjoys being outdoors and being creative. I offer a safe, spacious, clean and friendly home-based child-minding service where children feel comfortable which eases them into the transition into childcare.

I offer care for a small group of children ranging from the age of 6 months - 5 years old, which enables me to offer more personalised support. I eventually intend to offer wrap-around care for my local school, The Willows Primary School in Basildon, which is where my two youngest children attend.

I love spending time with children and making them feel welcome and happy. The children I care for will be encouraged to have lots of fun as well as learning.

At my setting I create a home away from home where children can learn, play and grow. I work closely with parents and carers to gain an understanding of their child's individual needs and interests, as my approach is centred around this. I believe in encouraging creativity, curiosity and independence through a variety of engaging activities, such as arts and crafts, outdoor play, storytelling, rhymes and educational games. I create a positive and inclusive atmosphere where every child feels valued, respected and thrives to reach their full potential.

My home is fully equipped with age appropriate resources and toys, and I regularly plan outings to local parks, cinema, beaches, splash parks, zoo, sealife centre, libraries, toddler groups and the farm which introduces the children to real life experiences. I also support a child's learning and development through child-led activities, adult-led activities and free play whilst adhering to the EYFS guidelines.

I hold a clear full UK driving license and have business insurance to transport the children in my car if needed.

My Experience

I have 13 years experience with children from birth from being a mum.

I have been working as a childminder’s assistant since July 2023 and have gained lots of experience in caring for children that are not my own during this time.
