About Me
Hi and welcome! Im Jemma, the face behind Giggly Grove in Bapchild, Sittingbourne.

I have put a lot of time, love and care into making my home a warm welcoming environment with plenty of opportunities for young minds to explore and thrive. There will be an abundance of areas for children to be creative across all development areas and children will be exposed to different day to day activities whilst building confidence and independence.
I will encourage, support and nurture every child paying close attention to their individual needs and interests. I want every to child enjoy their day at Giggly Grove and have learnt something new each and every day.
Whilst in my care i will endeavour to make sure your little one is ready and excited for big school.
I provide breakfast, healthy snacks and hot meals throughout the day with easy access to fresh filtered drinking water.
All nappies and wipes are included.
