Katrina was recommended by friend of mine. I am a very protective mum to my young daughter and even though I am a natural worrier, I know I can relax when my daughter is at Katrina's. She loves it there! Katrina is warm, reassuring, child-oriented and professional. She has endless enthusiasm for the kids and they respond to her attention very well, by flourishing. My daughter has learned so much since attending her setting and these days, I am lucky to get a kiss goodbye before she runs off to the playroom to see her little friends!
Katrina adheres to all of the standards and codes of practice, and she also keeps detailed records on the kids and what they do each day (sleeps, nappies, play and activities) - she is constantly planning fun and educational new things for them to do, as well as old favourites like going to the park. In short, she's a brilliant childminder and we wouldn't be without her!

Katrina is an amazing Childminder and my LB is very happy to be in her setting. He is always excited to see her. Since being in Katrina's setting he has come along leaps and bounds with his development in terms of speech and motor skills
