Kath is absolutely the best person to look after your little one while you can't. She goes above and beyond and is hugely caring, creative, kind, and loving.

Kath looked after my son from 9 months to 4 years and was a huge support for him and me. He still talks about all the things they used to do together and always looks forward to any school holidays he can still be cared for by Kath. My son was super clingy as a baby, having almost never left my side since birth. However, he settled at Kath's in a matter of hours and frequently didn't want to leave at pick up time which, in my books, is always a good sign! Kath is fantastic at communicating and sending photos of things that have happened during the day, or just a quick line to say everything is ok.

As a completely single parent, I found Kath to be hugely supportive and full of brilliant advice and suggestions how to deal with my son who was displaying increasing signs of special needs and challenging behaviour. He is now under his school SEN team and in the process of being diagnosed, and although Kath no longer looks after him on a regular basis, she is still a huge source of help and advice for me which I appreciate enormously.

If you are looking for a childminder, you honestly could not find anyone better than Kath. She goes above and beyond with toys, games, creative ideas, amazing trips out and little acts of kindness which I will never forget. She truly is one in a million!!
