Catherine has been my children's childminder for nearly three years now and would definitely recommend her my both kids absolutely love Catherine and her family.
They have made my both kids feel part of the family and my kids have a great attachment to Catherine.
Catherine is always doing lots of great activities with the kids (soft play,outdoors,playgroups,painting,baking etc)
Catherine has also supported my little boy in changes in his life and has been a great support.

I have used Cathy's childminding service for the past 3 years. I can honestly say that she has provided an excellent service. She is professional and very caring towards my daughter; She has made her feel like part of the family. My daughter loved going to Cathy's and had a great relationship with cathy and her family also.
Cathy provides a warm and welcoming environment, she has a wide range of activities for the children and also she makes choices around the children's needs.
She was never off sick and very dependable and always on time.
Cathy also provided extra help for me, out with her childminding role, by helping my daughter through her fear of the dentist and on different occasions with things that were happening in school. She is absolutely brilliant at her job.
I would recommend cathy anytime and so would Erin.
