I’m Kim. I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder. My age range is under 5s!😊
Term Time Only as of September 2025! My name is Kim.
I love family time, Disney, crafting, reading, binging a good series and self care. I live with my partner and our son who was born in June 2022. We live in our home located in Uphill Lincoln LN1. I am ready to use my wealth of knowledge and experience to support the learning, development and care needs of children in my home. My doors will be opening as soon as my registration certificate arrives (hopefully within the next two weeks), so be sure to get your spaces soon 😊
What we have been up to the past couple of months!
I have been terrible at updating photos on social media, but here is a little round up of a few things we have been doing!
✨ Temporary Term-Time Spaces Available! ✨
Are you looking for a home from home childcare setting for your little one? I have a couple of temporary, term-time-only spaces available in my Oak Tree Childminding setting! 🏡🧸
Why temporary?
We are planning to grow our own family! 🤍 Because we don’t yet know exactly when our new journey will begin, I am only offering temporary spaces at this time. This is a perfect solution for:
* Families needing short-term cover.
* Parents waiting for a permanent nursery spot.
* Those who only need care during the school terms.
What I offer:
* 🏠 A cozy, nurturing "home from home" environment.
* 🍎 Healthy snacks and engaging term-time activities.
* 🌳 Plenty of outdoor play and local outings.
If you’re looking for a friendly, safe, and loving environment for your child for the coming months, I’d love to chat!

Autumnal Nature Walk 🍁🍂
We took a little trip to Ashing Lane Nature Reserve and had a lovely walk round seeing what we could spot 🍁🍂

Self-selected activities!
Some resources are kept in the same place so that children can come to learn where they are for getting them out and tidying away.
This child has been enjoying cars lately, so they decided to get the ramp out themselves. I helped them place it but the child had fun collecting the cars and letting them roll down the ramp 🚗

✨ CHILDCARE SPACES AVAILABLE ✨
I am a home from home registered childminder.
It is my belief that every child is unique and I use that mindset to support every children in a way that is bespoke for them.
I plan the environment and activities based on their interests and their developmental needs.
I registered as a childminder in May 2023. I have over 10 years experience working with children from a childminders assistant, nursery nurse, senior practitioner and after school club manager.
I am open Monday to Thursday, term time only and I am open from 8am until 5.30pm.
I will be doing a school pick up/ drop off from Mount Street Academy as that is where my own son will go to nursery school.
I accept various types of funding including the working families funded 30 hours for children aged 9 months until they go to school; universal funded 15 hours for 3 and 4 year olds; tax free childcare and universal credit funding.
Any more questions or if you would like to arrange a visit, please let me know
