Kathryn's Reviews

Excellent childminder!

My little one has been with Kathryn for 3 years and has learnt so much! I have never had any doubts about leaving her with Kathryn, who provides a totally reliable, honest and safe environment for your child. Activities are varied and creative - my daughter has produced some of her best art work at Kathryn's and has had lots of fun in the process! Meals provided are varied and always nutritious, with a variety of fruit of veg included. There is also plenty of opportunity for your little one to socialise as Kathryn looks after children of varying ages from babies to older children after school. This has been so beneficial for my daughter, who was happy to transition into the local pre-school, and will now be starting school this week!

I have no reservations in recommending Kathryn as an excellent childminder.

Excellent Childminder

Kathryn is an excellent child-minder and is extremely professional She has child minded my sons (9 & 5) for a year and has looked after them superbly. Kathryn provides a safe and happy environment at her home, she has helped with homework and offers a great range of fun activities including days out in the school holidays. Kathryn collected my children from school and her communication skills are excellent. The snacks and tasty meals Kathryn provides are very healthy and home cooked. I have been completely at ease and have peace of mind when my boys are with her and they have been very happy. Kathryn loves her job and is extremely responsible, she goes the extra mile to help, I highly recommend her child-minding services.

Converted!!!

I had never used a childminder before Kathryn and never would have if a urgent family situation hadn't forced me into it.
I was totally against taking the risk, having seen so many over the years (my oldest is 15), and so rarely seeing one looking after the children in a way I would like once the parents weren't around.
Although Kathryn was recommended to me, I was still dubious as to how my two youngest would be, with my 4 year old who never liked being left and my 2 year old who never been left with anyone outside close family.
To cut a long story short, they had a wonderful time and my youngest cried when he got home because he had wanted to stay the night at Kathryn's!
They talked for days about all the things they had enjoyed, so much so that I now occasionally ask Kathryn to have them before family as they find it such a treat.
It is such a nice feeling knowing there is someone who can have them if necessary and the children feel they are being rewarded rather than palmed off.
Thank you Kathryn

Perfect!

Kathryn has looked after my children on several occasions both in her home and mine (evening babysitting).

I'm so glad I found her. She is extremely reliable and professional and my children love her, she's great with them. What more could you ask for?
