I can’t recommend Kirsty enough !!
My daughter just turned 1 when starting with Kirsty, from the day of meeting Kirsty she was very warm and friendly and settled my nerves instantly , we did a taster session for an hour before my daughter officially started and Kirsty updated me throughout knowing how nervous I was at leaving her .
On lotties first day Kirsty gave me a little care package with a picture of my daughter from the taster session which was such a lovely gesture.
Since then my daughter goes 3 times a week and always has a massive smile on her face when arriving and coming home , Kirsty takes them out to different places and makes sure they always have fun whilst learning at the same time , I can’t praise Kirsty enough , she is helpful , kind , and keeps me updated every day my daughter is there . My daughter absolutely loves her and loves going .
I wouldn’t take my daughter anywhere else!
5++++++ Stars !!!

Thank you so much.
My daughter attended a primary school, which was located near to Kirstys home. Due to the hours my husband and I work we needed wrap around childcare, so my daughter attended before and after school club. After a few months, the school contacted me to explain that my daughter was getting very upset when she needed to go to the after-school settings and they felt it would be beneficial for me to find a local childcare provider and arrange care with them. I was new to the area, so I did not know anyone who offered this service. It was at this point, the teacher told me about Kirsty (she admitted she should not refer me, but she knew of her and the children she cared for and thought she would be perfect).
The school got in tough with Kirsty and asked her to contact me to discuss our needs and to see if she could work with us. Kirsty called the same night, we arranged a time for us to meet her at her setting, which was her home and immediately my daughter said she wanted to start going the next day. We have not looked back since.
Kirsty has been amazing and I am so glad we found her, as she made my daughter’s school days so much better, as she was so much better.
Due to the hours my daughter attended it was not always easy for us to work with her to get any homework/reading done, so Kirsty would sit and do this with her. My daughter would speak to Kirsty if she’d had any issues that day at school – she trusted her 100%. Kirsty would speak with her and comfort her and let me know what had happened, so I was aware straight away.
Kirsty formed very strong bonds with the children in her care – they all loved her and they flourished during their time there.
My daughter always says, as we pass Kirsty’s house - I miss Kirsty. Honestly, she is a one in a million.
