Latest reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Katie. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Katie has been an incredible support to our family. She has cared for my twins, both of whom have additional needs, with genuine patience, calmness and understanding. She is naturally warm and friendly, builds trust quickly, and is brilliant at engaging my daughter through creative play ideas and gentle, thoughtful approaches that really help her connect and participate.
Katie is also very reliable — always punctual, communicative, and professional. She keeps me updated clearly and consistently, and she’s been really helpful in supporting observations for Community Paediatrics, particularly around sleep, routines and how the twins present day-to-day.
Katie has been a steady, positive presence in our home and I would highly recommend her to any family, especially those needing someone confident, kind and capable with children who have additional needs.

Katie has been collecting my daughter and her friend from school since October, bringing them home to our house and giving them dinner / looking after them until we get home from work. The girls love Katie and she is great. Highly recommend.

Katie is equally brilliant with parents and children. She communicates clearly, is professional and is keen to go the extra mile. The kids love her, too. From creating fun games to ensuring they do the things they need to do, Katie is attentive and makes it enjoyable. We’re really pleased with her as our nanny including doing pick ups, cooking meals and cleaning.

We have had the privilege to have Katie as our private nanny. She is polite, personable, reliable and trustworthy. Katie has helped me navigate family life as a single mum with two older children and a newborn. She is dependable, wonderfully caring, loving and nothing is too much trouble. She has sole care of the children including light housework which has enabled me to recover from childbirth and get back to work. Katie is 100% part of the family and she will be sorely missed in our home. All the best for the future & onwards & we will definitely stay in touch and use Katie in the future as she has a special place in our family’s hearts. Thankyou for all your amazing hard work, love the Clarkes xxx

Katie is a brilliant nanny, our daughter was 8 months old when Katie started with us and she took to her straight away. Going back to work and leaving your child is an incredibly stressful time but Katie was fantastic, she kept us up to date throughout the day, sent us pictures and wrote down how the day had gone. Our daughter has so much fun with Katie and is always happy to see her when she arrives, I would recommend Katie to anyone she is a lovely person and genuinely cares for child.

Ocassionaly Katie looks after my toddler. I recommend her to everyone. Katie is a very nice person, she is very active and makes it immediately apparent that she knows how to care for children. You can 100% trust her. I also attended a group where Katie, alongside the children she was currently taking care of, attended too, and the children she had with her appeared very joyful and calm.
