At Elite Childcare Consulting, we bring over 20 years of experience in the childcare industry to support families and parents worldwide. Our dedicated team is committed to offering bespoke childcare solutions for families in Hong Kong and comprehensive coaching and consulting services for parents globally.
We understand the crucial role that the right caregivers play in a child's development. That's why we have assembled a high-quality team of childcare professionals who are not only highly skilled but also share our commitment to exceptional care. Each caregiver undergoes a thorough vetting process to ensure they meet our stringent standards, providing peace of mind for families and the best care for their children.
Founder and Director Kim Banks-Smith leads our team with extensive qualifications, including a diploma in Children’s Services, bachelor’s degrees in Early Childhood Education and Teaching, and a Graduate Certificate in Children and Family Services. Kim’s passion for play-based learning, sensory play, and early brain development has driven her to create impactful solutions for families.
As an expat with nearly two decades of experience, Kim saw the need for tailored online coaching and consulting services for families relocating to new countries. This new offering, combined with Elite's soon to be released book and online self paced courses, provides easy and accessible support for parents in Hong Kong and around the globe.
