One of a kind childminder

5 stars

My 10 month old has been coming here for the past 4 months now and at the beginning I was extremely anxious and nervous to trust anyone with my baby. But I didn't need to be worried with him starting here! Cath is an absolute diamond and always has my sons best interests at heart, he absolutely loves coming here and I can always tell he has been well looked after. Cath makes sure the activities are both fun and educational and this shows in my sons development. I can honestly say I have never known a childminder like Cath she really does go above and beyond for the children and I cannot recommend her enough.

Thank you so much for your kind words

Cath Booth - amazing!

5 stars

Cath has looked after my two boys since 10 months old. They are both still in Cath's care now at the age of 2 and 3. I was so nervous leaving them at first, however they soon settled in and Cath is certainly a key part of their lives! They get so much care and attention. They do fun things everyday which includes indoor and outdoor activity. Cath has supported the boys routine with their sleep, food and potty training. The boys learn something new all the time which Cath shares with us daily both with pictures and a diary of activity. This lady is absolutely wonderful!

Just perfect!

5 stars

Cath has been looking after our 19 month old since he was just over 7 months old.
As parents we couldn't be happier as Cath is absolutely amazing at what she does and my little one is so happy when he knows it's time to go to Caths.
Cath keeps us updated what he has been up to and doesn't mind us contacting her which as a new mum at first I did this all the time!
I love picking him up a and seeing him run around playing in such a great child friendly set up Cath has. What they get up to each day is brilliant, just goes to show how much planning and dedication goes into each day. I love it at times of the year like Xmas and Easter when they create special gifts/art for the parents!
One thing is for sure my boy sleeps well after a fun packed day of learning and developing with Cath and the other children. Would recommend to anyone!

Hi, Cath has looked after my twin boys for the last 9 months. They love being in Catherine's care and enjoy playing with the other children and taking in part in various activities at local children's centre's, parks ect.... They eat a balanced diet and have really develop with their skills and speach since being in Catherine's care.

I have had no issue's at all and I go to work knowing my boys are happy and well looked after. Catherine is always contactable if i want to check how they are doing throughout the day.
