My two children (6 & 8 yrs old) have done a mix of school holiday full days and school pick ups / tea with Katie during the last few years. She is a brilliant with them, totally reliable and is an innovative and creative childminder. I feel able to go to work with complete peace of mind about their well being when they are with her. I fully recommend her! Francesca

Our son has been attending Katie’s Setting for 5 years now. We cannot recommend Katie highly enough. The early years experience that Katie offers is so vast, within her setting and out on her allotment as well as visits to local areas. Katie kept us well informed with our sons achievements and helped us with areas which he needed help in. She has a wealth of knowledge and is always happy to help us should we need any guidance. The environment is homely and calm, our son settled in with no problems and now he is as school attends before and after school and during the holidays. We could not live without Katie!!! Our son loves food and everything at Katie’s is nutritious and home cooked too. The craft and resources Katie has is exceptional she will do all the things we struggle to do at home. All the children that attend the setting are very happy and we couldn’t ask for more.

My son has been attending Katie's setting for 12 months or so now. I am so happy with the care Katie gives and the lessons he is already learning. Katie has totally exceeded my expectations and she really goes above and beyond when caring for him and all the other children. The thing I most liked about Katie's setting is the wide range of resources she has for the children that aren't screens or gadgets! Katie makes use of natural resources and creates an interactive learning environment for the children. There is lots of books and my son is very fond of reading already at a young age. Katie uses an online forum called Tapestry to keep parents informed of what our kids have been up to. She includes photos as well as detailing what skills the children are developing. Katie is very reliable and keeps the setting very clean. The variety of home cooked food is amazing. I would definitely recommend Katie if you are looking for a caring and reliable care giver for your child.

Our son has been with Katie for just over 12 months and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We heard about her from other local parents who were very happy with her service.
Katie is friendly and caring and caters for each child’s developmental needs.
I remember when I told her my boy had started to pull himself to stand, the next day she brought down a push along walker from the loft. And like this I have many examples. She is also very attentive of food preferences of the family and child, which was a relieve when my boy first started.
Katie uses Tapestry which is a lovely way of keeping track of little one’s progress and we love to see what he’s been up to.

My eldest son has been going to Katie for 3 1/2 years and my youngest for 6 months. I can honestly say choosing Katie as the boys childcare is one of the best parenting decisions we have made. Katie provides so much stimulation for the children in her care, really getting to know them and tailoring activities to their interests and developmental needs. She also recognises when they need a ‘chill out’ though and provides appropriate activities at a more sedate pace when it’s needed. The meals she provides are nutritious and the boys eat a fair greater range at hers than they would at home. I couldn’t recommend the setting enough.

We chose Katie's childcare as she had a great rapport with our son. She is warm and friendly and our toddler felt very relaxed in her care from day 1. James is very excited to tell me about his day, and Katie provides lots of activities to keep him entertained.
The Tapestry system provides us with lovely photos of his progress and I have added them into our photo diary.
