Kate has looked after our two boys, now 6 and 4 years old, for the past year and I can't praise her highly enough with regards to the care she has provided during this time.

They clearly feel at home with Kate and her family and she has taken a lot of time to take them out and about whilst making their time indoors also enjoyable and interesting.

Kate is very professional and consistent in her approach in dealing with our boys and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone.

Thank you Kate ;-)

Kate is an excellent childminder and she has looked after my 8 year old daughter for about a year. She has been very flexible in her approach by collecting her from a school club after school hours and helping with her work on homework days. Kate has been very professional and I would have no hesitation in recommending her. Thanks Kate :)

I have 2 children who are looked after by Kate and have been since they were babies. I am completely satisfied with the care Kate provides for my children. Kate has a lovely house with excellent indoor and outdoor facilities and offers a range and activities to suit the preferences and needs of my children. This includes activities like painting, cooking, gardening, playgroups and library 'bounce and rhyme' sessions. I also feel comforted in the knowledge that Kate is a trained nurse.

I know my kids love their time at Kate's. Initially my little boy went to a local nursery but he was constantly ill and always ran to us wanting to leave when we turned up. Now at Kate's he is often having so much fun he doesn't want to leave. As well as with Kate my kids have also formed strong relationships with Kate's 2 daughters who are lovely children.

I can't recommend Kate enough. A very happy mum :-)
