Kelly is a not just a fantastic child care provider she is a fantastic person who makes you feel at ease when leaving your little one with her each and every time. Kelly is extremely professional and personable. Even from the first contact and visiting her house for the first time we were delighted that out little girl was going to be in her care.
Kelly has tons of experience and all the documentation and certificates that makes her the perfect choice for any family, to support your children. Kelly was keen to show us her Ofsted documents and all the other legal papers that are needed to be registered as a childcare provider. Kelly also had personal experiences as she had her own (now grown up) children who were also as well mannered as you can imagine. Her home where she will support the children was immaculately clean with plenty of toys and items to allow the children to play through learning following the EYFS framework, and as a Childrens Social worker for my job, this was great to see.
Kelly gave regular updates of progress through verbal and electronic means, and the smiling faces of our little girl showed she was having a good time (not to mention the art and craft work she had completed otherer with Kelly and her other little childcare friends). Kelly spends time both in the house and out in the local community with the children, so they continue to learn in different ways. Our little girls has been to soft play, cafes, outdoor centres, garden centres, baby/toddlers groups, picnics and loads more. Our little one’s development shows every time she goes to see Kelly and we could not be happier. We have used Kelly for just under a year and the only reason that we had to stop using her as our childcare is because we are moving out of London. We will miss you lots and thanks very much for all you have done!!

Kelly is absolutely amazing! She provides activities for a variety of ages, our daughter has been with Kelly since she was 10 months old and is now 17 months old and walking, starting to talk and has grown in confidence massively. Kelly takes the children out and about with lots of exploring. Our daughter adores Kelly and is delighted each morning when we drop her off.
We really have found an absolute gem, we feel reassured that our daughter is being cared for by a professional and nurturing child minder, who sees the importance of encouraging developmental stages.
Kelly has children herself who are also amazing and so engaging with the children.
We will be absolutely gutted when we eventually move out of London!

Kelly is so lovely with our daughter and always has been since the first time they met!
Kelly is really good at keeping me up to date with what they have done through your the day and how our daughter is developing, I love my weekly photos 🥰
Kelly’s daughter is particularly great with our daughter and she wakes up wanting to go and see her and kelly! I love how happy she gets when I confirm she will see them!
Kelly’s setting is really lovely and we love her rabbit 🐇
If we ever had another one we wouldn’t want anyone else looking after them! 😁

Kelly has provided excellent care for my child for 3.5 days per week since she was 1 years old. She is only leaving now to attend school. When my daughter started going to Kelly's at 1 year's old, Kelly supported her to settle in and she quickly became secure and happy in the environment. The children attend a variety of groups and activities in the local area (pre-Covid). They also do arts, crafts, baking, games, reading, dressing up, playing outside, nature walks, trips around the local area and many other things. As the children get older, Kelly supports them towards readiness for school following the Early Years Foundation Stage. My daughter can do simple maths, knows her alphabet and can write her name. She's been supported in her relationships with the other children in the setting, becoming familiar with routines she'll need at school (hanging coats, tidying up, hand hygiene, etc) and her confidence has grown. I really can't recommed Kelly highly enough it's been a great experience throughout the past three and a half years.
