My Summary
The Kind Minder's Childminding
About Me
I am a qualified primary teacher of 8 years and a mum of 2 children. I have been childminding for a year and a half and am well known in Canterbury for being at toddler groups and events. I now have two families leaving due to moving house and am advertising for new families. Ideally I'd like to welcome a 9 month + or a 1 year old as they will be the same age as the other children I have here. I'd happily take a child on a part time or a full time basis. I currently have availability Monday to Friday from September onwards.
Originally from Bromley, I moved to Canterbury to study at Canterbury Christ Church University. After 8 years of teaching at Canterbury primary schools, I am now investing in the youngest generation to give them the best and happiest start to the learning lives.
I live in Wincheap in a 3 bedroom house with a big garden where I have sand and water, a mud kitchen, a digging area, a fruit and veg growing space, ride on toys, a chalk board, a slide and an activity table.
Please get in contact to discuss your family's needs and what I can offer.
My Experience
As a qualified teacher of 8 years, I have worked predominantly in early years and key stage 1. When Ofsted visited me as an early years teacher, I was graded as outstanding.
I am a mum of a 2 and a 5 year old.

We would highly recommend Stephanie at Kind Minder’s.
Our 2 year old settled in so fast, and it has quickly become such a huge part of her life.
Great activities, super organised and even the occasional trip included.
Communication has been faultless. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
