Cathy is a wonderful childminder who cares for each of the children in her care as individuals. She deeply cares about the children’s well-being. Makes home cooked meals each day and ensures the children have the opportunity to learn and develop appropriate to where they are at developmentally. My daughter tells us she loves Cathy. I know Cathy promotes learning through fun activities like singing and dancing and going to toddler groups, as well as getting out in the fresh air. Cathy has the excellent ability to connect with parents, communicate well with updates and is always positive. I can highly recommend Cathy to any parent looking for a childminder.

My son always has a great time when he is with Cathy (he is 10 and goes during the school holidays). He’s happy to go which makes life so much easier. I love the fact that she encourages them to be outside and active as much as possible. They have been to some hidden gems of local playgrounds (and I thought I knew where all the good ones were) and had fun filled days out.
Cathy has a lovely way with children and I would highly recommend her .

Cathy has looked after our twin boys two days a week since they were 14 months old. I was dreading leaving them but Cathy has made it SO easy. She sends regular texts and photos to let me know how they are doing. Cathy cares for them as if they were her own, she is amazing and manages to do so much with the children in her care. She provides a caring, fun, stimulating environment and a cooked meal during the day. Charlie and Archie have great fun with Cathy, experiencing new things, socialising with other children and being cared for in her home. She is always accommodating and flexible when she can be. I couldn't have wished for a better childminder! Thank you Cathy!

Absolutely excellent childminder, I was very nervous about leaving my little boy while I was in work but regular check in messages and pictures are sent in through the day to let me know what he's getting up to! He also has 3 home cooked meals a day which I feel is very important and they are always out doing lots of different activities, I feel so lucky to have found such an amazing childminder and in general lovely woman, wouldn't want anyone to be looking after him while I'm in work

Cathy is an excellent childminder who has a smile on her face and is always in a good mood when I drop Manon off in the morning. If she can help, nothing ids ever too much to ask Cathy!
Thank you so much for making Manon so happy at your house and she will miss you when she goes to school full time in September.
I would definitely recommend Cathy as a childminder as she is lovely, enthusiastic and patient.
