Highly recommended

Pat has looked after our 2 year old son Thomas since he was 9 months old and we couldn't be happier with her. She is extremely reliable and flexible which is essential for my work as a GP.

Pat is always cheerful and energetic and provides a happy and loving home environment for the children. She takes them on outings every day and they do many activities such as cooking and art and craft. She sets clear boundaries and teaches the children good manners.

Her home is always clean and tidy and she has a large garden with a play house, pet rabbits and plenty of outdoor toys. Behind her garden is her allotment where the children help her to grow vegetables and collect eggs from the chickens. She also has a lovely dog whom Thomas adores.

Thomas enjoys his days with Pat and has learnt a lot from her and the other older children. He is well on the way to being toilet trained which, having only just turned 2, we are very pleased about.

I would recommend Pat to any parent looking for reliable, high quality child care in a home setting. She well deserves her outstanding ofsted report.

A Fantastic Childminder

Pat has cared for my 3 1/2 yr old girl for the past 2 years,

Pat has been a tremendous help toward me going to work, She helped with my early drop off as I have to travel to London and if some days I'm running late due to traffic etc Pat is always contactable to extend her stay.

Nothing is too much trouble, she is also willining to help where she can.

Katelyn my daughter absolutely loves going to Pat's and enjoys every minute she is there, from playing with the other children, to going to toddler groups and outings and loves Pat's outdoor activities and the fantastic alotment where she is learning all the time, especially about how to grow your very own fresh vegetables .

The environment is very clean, safe and homely, Pat has a very good empathy and undertanding of good manners which I feel is essential for any child, she is well respected and truely an expereiene person and has a wide knowledge and understanding from dietery, learning activities and potty training which was a breeze for my little girl.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Pat as a registered child minder.
