A little place to grow

Small steps.
Bright beginnings.

A warm welcome to Little Stars, Estelle Lawrence’s home-based childminding setting in Middlecroft, Staveley.

Hello, I’m Estelle.

I bring experience in early years and education to a caring setting where children can play, explore and learn at their own pace.

Our playroom, garden and local outings make room for curiosity, everyday discoveries and growing confidence.

Say hello

your little star.

How we use your enquiry

Estelle Lawrence, trading as Little Stars, is responsible for this enquiry information. Use this form to contact her about your privacy rights; please do not send identity documents or detailed child information here.

Your name, email and message are used to respond to your request. Enquiries about arranging childcare are handled to take steps you request before a contract; general enquiries and website security are handled for legitimate interests in running and protecting the setting. These details are required to reply, but you do not have to submit an enquiry.

The private website inbox is accessible to Estelle and Richard, who supports the website. Active enquiries are deleted after 90 days unless a specific legal obligation or claim requires longer retention. Necessary security logs and protected backups may have separate retention periods. Cloudflare processes connection and security information and may process it outside the UK under its applicable transfer safeguards.

Depending on the circumstances, you can request access, correction, erasure, restriction or portability, and object to processing based on legitimate interests. No decision about a childcare place is made solely by automated processing. You may complain to Estelle or to the Information Commissioner’s Office at ico.org.uk. Essential session and security cookies are used; this website does not use advertising cookies.
