About Me

My name is Katie. I am an experienced ofsted registered childminder in Bagshot, on my last inspection I received a grading of ‘good’. I live with my husband and our two children Seb (7) and Harriet (4). I offer a safe, nurturing environment Where children can reach their full potential through utilising my knowledge and skills. I have plenty of space at home for children to play and learn inside. We are lucky to have a safe and secure garden for the children to explore with a playhouse, mud kitchen, ride ons and other outside equipment.

I offer home cooked meals and healthy snacks throughout the day.

Along with the resources and environment we have at home we go to a toddler groups, soft play, we explore different parks, we go for nature walks, visit Wisley gardens, feed the ducks and visit the local library.

My aim is for the children in my care to feel safe, have fun and learn in a stimulating home environment. I encourage good manners, independence and consideration for others.

I follow the latest guidance on the curriculum from ‘Development Matters’ and ‘Birth to Five’ and provide a holistic approach to my care.

I keep parents up to date through regular photos sent via a private WhatsApp group and daily feedback books. I also carry out face to face meetings.

Reference from a previous parent:
“Katie has looked after Child A since Child A started school in September, she is a wonderful childminder. She provides a happy, welcoming setting with lots of varied activities, many of which help a child’s learning and development. Katie is organised and professional but also very caring and considerate to the children in her care, which was important to me. Child A always has a wonderful time with her!”

Reference from a current parents:

“Our little girl has been looked after by Katie since she was about 9 months old.
Katie has always been amazing and patient. What I really like about her is that she is teaching so many things to our little one. Katie doesn’t just look after her and feed her but we can see on a daily basis how much our daughter develops. They are always out and playing and learning and I feel 100% confident in Katie and I know she would look after our child just as she would look after her own.
I can’t express my thanks enough for Katie and everything she does.”

“Katie is wonderful. Her home is inviting, clean and comfortable and her presence is warm and welcoming. Our son started when he was around 18 months, never having been to childcare before so, as you can probably imagine, I was a little bit worried how he would take to not being around us, especially given he was still breastfeeding and had a bit of separation anxiety. To our surprise, despite him only attending two days per week, he settled very quickly and stopped crying at drop off within 2 to 3 weeks. Yes, he still occasionally makes a sad face but we can tell beforehand that he's excited to go, play, see his friends and have a generally fun, relaxed, connected time. He, sometimes, asks on his off days whether he is going to see Katie! He's always smiling when we pick him up and I'm constantly, happily surprised to see the range of toys he's playing with and activities he's taking part in as well as the lovely crafts he brings home. It's definitely reassuring to know he's in a safe and nurturing environment where even Katie's kids are so caring towards him. The fact Katie provides great, balanced meals and snacks is an added bonus; one less thing to worry about. Overall, we're very satisfied.”

“ Our son has been with Katie for a couple months now and we have been so happy with the way he has taken to her and settled into the environment. He has never to been in childcare and is quite shy so we weren’t sure how he would be but Katie is so lovely and gentle mannered that I think that has made him feel at ease and settled so quickly. She regularly keeps us up to date and does different things with him each week but still keeps a good routine for him.
We are so pleased we found Katie and it shows in him when we pick him up as he is so happy and in such a lovely mood.”
