About Me

Hello, I’m Kedia – a passionate childminder and mum, offering a cosy, home-from-home setting in Ashford called Bluebell Nest. My Home Nursery is a joyful space where little ones grow through curiosity-led play, daily outdoor adventures, and plenty of love and care. I’m open Monday to Friday, 7am–7pm, and accept Early Years Funding for eligible families. We enjoy local walks to the park and library, and every day is full of wonder. I’d love to welcome you to the Bluebell Nest family.

My Experience

Although I’m newly qualified as a registered childminder, my journey in childcare began many years ago. I worked closely with my mum, supporting her as a childcare assistant and later as a respite carer, which gave me rich hands-on experience with little ones and their unique needs.
I’ve spent years around babies and young children, and caring for them feels like second nature. I continue to build on my knowledge by regularly attending training to strengthen my provision, and I hold up-to-date safeguarding and paediatric first aid certification.
I believe in lifelong learning and always strive to provide the highest quality of care in a warm, nurturing environment.

My Qualifications

EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) Curriculum Training
Safeguarding Children Certification (up to date)
Paediatric First Aid (Level 3, up to date)
FGM Awareness Training
Prevent Duty Awareness Course
Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration

My Availability

I offer full-time and part-time care for children from the early years through primary school age. I also provide breakfast club support for early starts and am available for local school drop-offs and pick-ups.
I currently cover the following schools:
• St Simon of England RC Primary
• The John Wallis Church of England Academy
• Ashford Oaks Community Primary
• Beaver Green Primary School
• Victoria Road Primary School
Whether you’re looking for wraparound care or a nurturing day space, I’m here to help make daily routines feel calm, flexible, and joyful.
