My little boy goes to Cat once a week (soon to be 3 times a week). She is amazing! Her house is spotless, she is very professional, yet she makes us and our little boy feel like family. She (and her family) are very friendly and welcoming. Our little boy loves going to Cats. He has come on leaps and bounds, and she keeps us updated with his progress. She has helped us when we’ve got into a pickle with child care on other days. Me and my husband couldn’t recommend Cat enough !

Cat has a really lovely manner with all the children in her care. She is a kind, calm and patient lady and the children in her care especially my son are happy and well behaved and know what’s expected of them. Cat always ensures that the children are about whatever the weather and that they have a full rounded social and learning environment gaining many varied experiences.
Since my son has been going to Cat's I’ve been reassured that I made absolutely the right choice. He is so happy and really loves both Cat and the children in her care. I’ve been impressed by the variety of toys and equipment. I’ve really seen my son's progress since he has spent time with Cat and the other children in her care. While he's pleased to see me at the end of the day he’s never desperate to go home and always arrives at Cat's with a smile.
Whenever I visit Cat's I’ve seen all the children happily and safely engaged. Provision of food is always nutritious and varied as Cat introduces new tastes for my son to try. I’ve always felt very comfortable to ask questions about my son’s day or to ask advice on his wellbeing. I would highly recommend Cat if you are looking for childcare

Cat has looked after my daughters for about 9 months. She picks them up from school, makes them tea, does bathtime and homework etc if necessary.
She has been wonderful and my girls love her and her beautiful little daughter.
I really recommend her and am happy to provide a full reference on request
