As the oldest of six siblings, caring for and supporting younger children has always been a natural part of my life. Growing up in a busy household taught me patience, responsibility and the importance of creating an environment where everyone feels safe, heard and valued - qualities that continue to shape my approach today.

I live with my partner, who has experience working within nurseries and schools through sports coaching. While Kayleigh's Little Grove is my own venture, his background in supporting children's confidence, teamwork and physical development has further shaped our shared appreciation for positive early experiences. As with any home-based setting, all safeguarding and registration requirements will be fully met and carefully considered as part of the registration process.

I am currently working towards registration and thoughtfully preparing our future space, ensuring it meets the highest standards of care, safety and early learning. While Kayleigh's Little Grove is still growing behind the scenes, I'm so grateful to be connecting with families who would like to follow along and be part of the journey from the beginning.

I cannot wait to welcome you when the time comes!

Hi, I'm Kayleigh!

I'm currently studying primary years education at university while working within a nursery setting, where I support children as they grow, explore and begin their early learning journeys. These experiences have deepened my passion for creating a space that feels calm, nurturing and intentionally led.

Kayleigh's Little Grove was created from a desire to build something meaningful - a setting where children feel safe, understood and gently encouraged to flourish at their own pace. I believe childhood should be unhurried, filled with warmth, play and strong, trusting relationships.

I'm also preparing to welcome a baby of my own in April, which makes this journey feel even more special. Stepping into motherhood is strengthening my understanding of just how important it is for families to feel confident, supported and truly heard when choosing childcare.
