About this home

A tiney home with a dedicated sleep room & playroom aimed at children 0-5. Advocate for children’s independence, inspired by the Montessori & curiosity approach. Our own outdoor space is in progress but we will get outdoors every day to the local green spaces and parks. Local transport at the top of our street, easy access into town - providing the children with adventure!

About our tiney childminder

Over 9 years professional childcare experience with children aged 0-5, including children with SEND. I am a mum to 3 of my own boys ages 6, 4 & 1. I have set up my home to be a bright, welcoming space for the children, a place for them to feel calm and secure. I provide home cooked lunches on a daily basis for the children, including a light tea a bit later on. I am a lover of messy play so spare clothes is a must! I enjoy dance and mindfulness so we will have fun with yoga and small exercises!

Unique highlights

Messy Play!

As a lover of all things sensory & messy I will provide children with fun engaging sensory / messy activities on a regular basis. Including, shaving foam, water play, gloop, coloured spaghetti, the list goes on!

Promoting Independence

Here at Kirsty’s tiney home nursery we are advocates for children’s independence. From the youngest of ages the children will be encouraged to have a go at washing their own hands & face, setting the table, choosing what activities they’d like to play with and feeding themselves!

Nutritious meals and snacks 🍌 🍓 🫐

I will provide the children with healthy, nutritious, home cooked meals and snacks. Following the guidance and advice from the NHS alongside Annabel Karmel’s recipes (UK’s no1 children’s cookery author!) 👩‍🍳

In this neighbourhood

I am located in the Bretch Hill area of Banbury, a few nice playgrounds within walking distance and also a lovely library. Good transport links to get into town if required, although we are only around a 20 minute walk too! So super easy to reach soft play & some different parks!

What others are saying about this home...

Aurelia Nichitoiu

Kirsty was my daughter’s first teacher and she had a huge impact in her development. She is amazing around children! I would definitely strongly recommend her if you need a childminder for your littles ones ♥️

Catherine Bottomley

Kirsty was my eldest son's key worker and room leader in his nursery setting. She was excellent with him, took the time to really get to know him and gave us excellent handovers at the end of each day. She is experienced and passionate. I would recommend Kirsty to other parents.

Theresa Sayer

Kirsty looked after my daughter A when she was 2. Kirsty was kind, caring and A enjoyed spending time with her as she made nursery life fun 😁
