Simply amazing!!

Our 2 1/2 year old daughter has been with Kay since she was 10 months old.
Kay is the most reliable minder out there. Goes the extra mile with just about everything.
Our daughter loves her to bits and we are so happy we found her.
Every day, there is a new activity, fun and learning rolled into one. They head out each day come rain or shine. It still amazes us how much is packed into one day!!
Cannot recommend enough!! 👏🏻👏🏻

Excellent wrap around care

Both my daughters have been in Kay’s care while they attended primary school. They both loved going to Kay’s before and after school. Kay provides a warm and welcoming environment for the children and their parents. Thank you Kay, you’ve made working and schooling so much easier. I knew that my children were in safe hands.

Like leaving your child with a family member

My youngest was cared for by Kay in wrap around care for a few years, after the setting of and afterschool club didn’t suit him. We honestly cannot fault the care he received from Kay, and I never worried once. He has grown to consider her family, and now leaving primary school he will really miss her.

Kay’s house is lovely and clean, there are always activities for the children and my son used to love the school holidays to be able to go on outings with Kay and the other children. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kay to anybody looking for someone fair, kind and trustworthy to look after their children.

Excellent childminder!

My son started going to Kay when he was 1 year old and stayed with her until he left junior school.
She is an excellent childminder and the fact that my boy will miss her greatly is the biggest testament to that I could give.
Kay adapts the activities for the children as they grow which is documented in their own personal diary with photographs so you can see what your child has been getting up to. They take part in educational activities, play groups and fun days out. Over the years she has also adapted to my son's needs and overcame any challenges he presented due to his ASC and ADHD through her calm and collaborative approach.
Going back to work after maternity leave can be a daunting prospect but she made that easier as I knew he was happy and in safe hands. She genuinely cares for the children and their welfare and her home is also very clean and safe.
I would recommend Kay to anyone and thank her for everything she has done for us.

Wish I had found Kay years ago!

You honestly couldn’t ask for a better person to care for your children!
Kay has been caring for my daughter for a year now and I honestly wish I’d found her years ago! Her house is always immaculate and so are the children in her care. It’s rare to find someone who will actually get down on the floor in order to play and engage with them as a parent would. My daughter is always well fed, happy and loves going to Kay’s.
Since lockdown, I’ve not needed to use Kays services but she has kept in contact constantly to check in with us and even offered assistance with shopping etc. if needed! How lovely is that?!

Thankful for an AMAZING! Childminder!

My daughter has now been going to Kays for just over a year. She has really grown in personality and learned so much. Kay does daily activities which are educational and my daughter really benefits from these. It only took a week or so for my daughter to settle in and she looks forward to going every day. Its nice that not only does kay child mind my daughter but she also used to child mind myself and my siblings when I was a child. So I know first hand how amazing kay is as a childminder. I enjoy getting daily updates whilst my daughter is with Kay and she always looks like shes having so much fun in all the photos.

Patient, Kind, loving and helpful childminder

I could spend all day gushing about Kay, she is very loving towards my daughter and has been very kind towards her. Kay has contributed greatly to my child's development and has been an integral part of her progress. She has been very understanding and accommodating to my ever changing situation. My daughter settled almost instantly, she felt at home straight away, making me feel happy and comfortable. As a first time Mum, I was terrified to leave my daughter, but I felt sure Kay was the right person. She creates a healthy and positive environment. I worried about my daughter mixing with older kids, but she loves them as much they love her. Kay asks permission for any activities and confirms it is okay before carrying out. I greatly appreciate this. My daughter is always happy to see Kay and is not always happy to leave Kay lol. I think that says a lot!!!
Kay is very clean and my daughter is always tidy and clean when I pick her up, sometimes Kay dabbles in hair care :)

Thankful to have such a great childminder

My kids have been going to Kay for nearly 3 years and my eldest is leaving soon for secondary school. Kay is such a great childminder who my eldest shall miss greatly. As a full time working mum it’s nice to know my children are happy and safe. Kay keeps me updated on everything and has supported me with any last minute changes such as needing to watch my kids for the day due to work. Thank you for everything you do for my family Kay I truly appreciate it.

Absolutely Brilliant!

My daughter started to go to Kay's almost 2 years ago when she was one. Since then we have noticed a huge development in her speach and in her milestones. Kay is such an incredible person who genuinely cares about the children. She is doing various activities with them daily and we couldn't ask for a better childminder.
Highly recommend!!!

An excellent childminder

Kay has looked after our 2 children for nearly 3 years. Our son is now 10 years old . Our daughter who is now 4 years old started going to Kay when she was only about 15 months old. At the time I had just returned to work but was very confident because I knew that she was in good hands. Our daughter settled very quickly with Kay, was always happy when we picked her up and always looked well taken care of.
Kay provides a very loving and caring environment for the children. Her home is a 'home away from home' for them . They learn a lot while they are with her, doing various forms of art and craft, baking as well as going for day outings, groups and activities.
My children always look forward to going to Kay. We are glad that we made the right decision to have Kay look after our children.She is truly an excellent childminder.
