About Me

My name is Kate - I am 50 years old and live in Kimpton Village.

I have a full clean driving licence.

I have a fun loving personality. I consider myself to be extremely level headed and sensible but with a sense of crazy fun at times.

I love music and often travel around going to shows.

Both my children have now left home so am completely flexible as to times and availability.

Thank you for reading my profile x

My Experience

I have many years of experience bringing up my own two children as a single parent - who in my opinion have both grown into well adjusted caring adults - and more recently looking after two small children in Gustard Wood, Wheathampstead - often staying overnight as and when required.

In my capacity of childcare I have done the following

• Attended playgroup

• Provided a stimulating and nurturing environment

• Carried out age appropriate learning experiences

• Prepared nutritious and healthy meals

• Maintained daily routines to ensure stability

• General cleaning and tidying of family home

I also babysit two children and occasionally pick up from school and take home as and when required. This is not a permanent position - I am used as an emergency standby if parents are held up.

My Qualifications

Although I do not have any formal childcare qualifications I feel that in my role as a single parent for 20 years more than qualify to take care of any child and in any situation.

7 O'Level qualifications (Grades A - C) including English Language, English Literature, Maths and French.

First Aid Certificate (April 2015)

Current DBS (CRB) Certificate (April 2015)

Kate is everything you need for childcare. We were very pleased with how she looked after our 8yr old who can be difficult and cheeky but Kate had no issues getting her to do what was needed, when it was needed whether it was eating, homework or tidying her room.

We only had to part ways with Kate because my employment finish time became earlier and thus could enrol with after school club and was a financial decision and no fault of Kate’s

Kate never missed a shift, never overcharged, totally trustworthy and made her dinner look better than we did! She gets the homework done when we have so much difficulty and resistance she seems to know the secret!

If we could we would have kept her, and we wish her all the best in finding another family as nice as us!! 🤣 🤞
