Personal details

Personal details:

Bienvenue chez Les Petites Étoiles!

My name is Carly and I am an Ofsted registered Childminder with 5+ years’ experience in childcare and education. I live on the outskirts of Tonbridge in Golden Green, a 10-minute drive from Tonbridge Station.

I live with my partner of 7 years and my 7-month-old daughter and we have a lovely little cat named Matilda who adores the children. My daughter is friendly and happy and loves to play with the other children!

I offer a home from home, cosy, safe and loving setting in a cottage in the Kentish countryside, where the children are at the heart of all activities and learning.

I have a calm and gentle manner with the children and I love working within Early Years!

I use an app called Tapestry to share photos and comments with you of what the children have been up to during the day.

Please get in touch to discuss your childcare requirements.

I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!

À bientôt!
