About Me
We are a family of 3 with a 3 year old daughter. We are an active, fun and outdoorsy family. My daughter has been with a childminder since 10months old and has recently moved onto a nursery attached to a school. We are moving from Clapham to Beckenham in January 2023 and therefore looking for new childcare arrangements.
My Requirements
We are moving from Clapham to Beckenham in January 2023. My daughter will be attending St Augustine’s nursery. We are looking for someone to collect her 3 days a week (Tues-Thurs) at 3pm and care for her until 5:30pm

My eldest girl started with Lorraine for afterschool pick-ups in 2023. New to the area we were looking for a reliable, flexible and nurturing Childminder who could provide a home away from home. Lorraine has provided just that and was our first choice when we welcomed our little boy in 2023. He began full-time with Lorraine in 2024. He loves going and happily waves me goodbye at the door. He has thrived in the small setting, whilst also enjoying socialising at the playgroups they attend. He has now begun preschool and teachers have commented on how well prepared he was for the setting. Credit to Lorraine for getting him ready for more independence and soon, reception.
My daughter, now in year 2, still enjoys Lorraine’s meals over mine :)
Highly recommend her and very grateful we found her so quickly after our move to the area.

Oh what a lovely review thank you so much. I never get feed back from a school so that was so lovely to hear. So happy to still be apart of there lives and so honoured to have been able to see them grow into the beautiful kids they have become. The credit is not all mine. Your children are the most well mannered kids i have had and that’s also a pat on the back to you. Looking forward to seeing them still grow. X
Kathy began looking after our daughter when she was just 10 months old. As first time parents, we were nervous about how our daughter would settle but almost instantly our daughter felt safe with Kathy. She provided love, stimulation and a safe environment where she has thrived for the past 2 1/2yrs.
Kathy is reliable, active and straightforward. She communicates both the highlights and any areas of concern to enable working together. She sends over lovely photos to keep you in the loop of their activities. Kathy keeps the children active and engaged in fun physical activities throughout the day. My daughter was confidently wizzing around on a scooter at 18months, all thanks to Kathy!
Kathy works on a child’s sense of independence and this assisted in a smooth transition to a nursery setting.
The only reason we are leaving Kathy’s wonderful care is due to moving out of the area. We will all miss her greatly!
