My Summary
About Me

Registration September 2024 Start, enquire. Temporary Childcare contracts available.
Hi all my name is Kim and I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder in East London/ Poplar area. I live with my partner and two lovely boys. Before childminding I’ve had a few rewarding career paths, Human Resources Supervisor; Visual Merchandiser and Assistant Manager all in Retail. Following almost seven years in an office role and two children later, I decided to enter the exciting world of childminding.
As a busy mother of two, I am well aware of the demands and responsibilities involved in caring for children. I have no doubt that the experiences that I have gained and bringing up my own children help me in my role as a childminder. Believe me when I say, I understand how hard and daunting it could be looking for a loving environment for your little one whilst balancing work life which can be stressful.
I am very passionate in offering a high standard of care surrounding the EYFS providing a home from home environment where each child can feel safe, play, laugh and grow. I am happy to say that all our activities are planned and executed to give your child a step ahead with preparations for school. IF you decide to join our little family you will hear and see from testimonials. I have a very creative background so our days are packed with fun filled activities to keep those curious and adventurous minds occupied, all based on your child's/ children's interests i.e going to the park, library, playgroups, zoo, museums, sewing, cooking and much more. I am looking forward in hopefully taking care of your little one please feel free to contact me and we could have a chat about your requirements further.
My Experience
I believe that the following have given me the experience & skills I have gained so far:
(1) I have a very creative background, I will utilise my artistic talents and ideas when doing art and craft with the children,
(2) I have the experience of being a mother of children who have been cared for by a childminder, nursery and after school care. I am therefore able to identify areas of the service which has been successful and learn from the areas where I feel improvements could be made.
(3) I am a fit and active individual with plenty of energy to provide children with a stimulating environment with a wide varity of fun and educational activities.
(4) I follow topic and event led activities which intertwine with the school curriculum I.e Phonics- letter sounds and sight words, Literacy-(pre- reading skills), Early Maths etc.

Our son has thrived being in Kim's setting. He loves going there and and doing all the fun things she plans. She encourages learning through play but also has structure so that he knows what to expect each day and will also be able to adapt into a formal school setting. We have been with her for 2.5 years and we know that she was the best choice. We receive a daily report on what activities they have done, what they have eaten and photos from the day. She takes them to playgroups and forest school, and the odd day out when possible. He will be starting nursery in September and she has also provided us an in depth report on our son to give to the school to help with the transition. She is incredibly thoughtful and always puts the children first, finding things they enjoy to help them learn new things. She is constantly updating her qualifications and learning so she can provide the best care for the children she looks after. 100% recommend!!
