About Me

Hello I'm Kirsty.
I am based in Little Lever Bolton and I am in short walking distance to Mytham Primary School. I have a level 3 childminding qualification. My husband and I hold enhanced CRB checks.

I have 2 daughters Harper aged 7 and Lily is 4.

I provide care in a loving home filled with laughter and fun and being a mum myself I know how important trust and good childcare for your little ones is.

I follow the EYFS and I regularly share pictures of the fun and learning we have taken part in each day with yourself.

We love outings such as going to parks,soft play,toddler/baby groups,feeding the ducks and using our imagination in outdoor places and I would love to share new experiences with your child/ren together.

I encourage using their own imagination by providing open ended play, Messy play is always a great way for children to explore. I have a toy room with a wide variety of suitably aged toys, puzzles and books for story time.

I also have a bathroom downstairs which is ideal for little ones ready for toilet training.

Craft time and baking is also a big part of our lives and a way to make fun and happy memories.

We love to read, play dress up and play with lots of toys like animals,cars, dolls and play shopkeeper. Making dens inside and out is great to encourage imagination. Outside I have a trampoline mud kitchen and slide and numerous toys available such as scooters, little tikes car etc. We also have water and sand play outside and are currently in the process of making our very own fairy garden which I look forward to adding to with your child/ren. We do also have a family pet our mini dachshund sully, he absolutely adores all the children and they love to play and cuddle with him.
Please feel free to contact me for more info x
