My Summary
Nurturing Childminder In Me1
About Me
Welcome to My Home-from-Home Childcare!
At our cosy ME1 setting, we offer a warm, family-friendly environment where children thrive through exciting educational experiences. As a small-scale childminder, I'm passionate about creating a fun and nurturing atmosphere that feels just like home.
I believe in providing personalised care and attention to each child. My monthly themed learning activities, coupled with outings, ensure that children in my care are constantly engaged and developing. Whether it's a nature walk with my PAT-registered therapy dog or a trip to a local farm in my 7-seater car, every day brings new adventures and learning opportunities.
My Experience
With extensive experience as a childminder and private nanny, I've been caring for children aged 6 months to 11 years all over Kent. My journey as a registered childminder began in early 2024, allowing me to bring my love for childcare into my own home.
I'm supported by my partner Callum, who is also an Ofsted-registered childminder. He brings over six years of experience from top-rated childminding settings in Kent, helping me create a dynamic and supportive environment for your little ones.

Beth has been looking after my child for 7 months now and I can’t fault her at all!
My child has lots of fun at every visit and comes home to tell me what they learnt that day. I’ve really noticed my child’s knowledge excel since being in Beth’s company.
So Thanks again Beth!

Both of my children are currently looked after by Beth at her home. They always have so much fun and their days vary with Beth doing different activities and outings with them.
Beth is extremely caring and attentive to the children’s needs as well as helping them develop with skills needed before school. The end of the day round up is lovely to see what they have been up to in the day with a detailed description and pictures. I would highly recommend Beth as a childminder to anyone looking for childcare!

Beth has been amazing for my little girl and has made returning to work feel so much easier. My daughter was 6 months old when she started to go to Beth's and clearly loves her time there. Beth is attentive and caring and her communication is excellent. I have no worries at all with leaving my daughter in Beth's care and am so grateful to her for being so diligent. The summary and photos of the day are super and show how much fun is had with so many different activities. Thank you Beth!

Our little boy was in a nursery and really struggled. Beth was recommended to me by another childminder we went for an initial visit and my little boy settled within minutes. He loves going there and always comes out happy. Beth does an end of day brief so you know exactly what your little one has been up to during the day along with photos. She has themes of the month so you can try and encourage your little one at home. Overall we are very happy to have found Beth as she is so good with our little boy.
Thanks Beth
