A Caring, gentle, and exceptional Childminder

5 stars

Both of our boys started with Catherine when they were just over one year old and stayed with her until school age. We often hear other parents say that we have the best childminder in the area, and we know this to be true. We feel very lucky.
Our boys love Catherine. They are happy every day and always receive excellent care. She is loving, nurturing, gentle, kind, and calm.
Our boys also attend Talbot Nursery a few days a week to become familiar with the school environment, but they are more relaxed and be themselves when they are with Catherine. The children have opportunities to go out every day, whether it’s running around in the park, visiting Temple Newsam, Meanwood Farm, or going to local libraries. They all love these trips.

We are very grateful and thankful for the care you provide for our boys, Catherine.
