Welcome to Little Hill Childminding in Kelso, Scottish Borders!
I’m so glad you’ve stopped by! My home is a bright, colourful, and fun space where children under five can play, explore, and grow. I’ve just had my Care Inspectorate visit and am waiting on my registration certificate, and I currently have an open waiting list — you’re very welcome to join! I can’t wait to meet your little one and watch them thrive in our Little Hill family.
Our approach to early learning
At Little Hill Childminding, I believe in a holistic approach to early childhood education. Tailored activities and supportive routines are designed to foster growth in every aspect of your child’s development.
A Colourful Space Where Imagination Grows
Bursting with colour and joy, my home is a happy place for children to explore and play. Toys are in easy-to-access baskets, so children can choose what sparks their curiosity and follow their own interests, with gentle guidance when needed. Every day is full of playful learning and fun!
Exploration & discovery
At Little Hill Childminding, children have lots of opportunities to explore their surroundings, both indoors and outdoors, encouraging curiosity and helping them understand the world around them. Our huge garden is a favourite spot, featuring a treehouse climbing frame with two slides and two swings — perfect for active play and adventure!
We also have a separate dog-free area, so focused activities can take place without distractions from our friendly Border Collie, Jax Children are free to explore and play in the garden under supervision at all times.
At the back of our garden is a gate that’s kept locked unless we’re heading straight into the woods. From there, children can enjoy woodland walks, mini-beast hunts, bear hunts, or any adventure their imagination takes them — all just a few steps from the garden!
Nurturing routines
I love to make snack time fun and a little bit different! Sometimes we sit outside for a picnic in the fresh air, and other times we bring our favourite soft toys indoors to create a cosy teddy bear picnic. It’s all about enjoying healthy snacks together in a relaxed, social setting, giving the children space to chat, laugh, and share while thinking outside the box instead of always sitting at a table. These little moments help make everyday routines playful, engaging, and full of joy. 🧸
Individual development
I celebrate each child's unique journey, providing personalised attention to support their cognitive, social, emotional, and physical milestones.
