My Summary
About Me
My name is Kate and i have been a registered childminder since October 2004. Before doing this i worked for many years as a nanny, And then in a private day nursery. I have two children of my own aged 30 and 33 years. I live in a large spacious family home , with a safe secure garden. I am a confident, happy and considerate person who loves her job and finds it very rewarding. I run a happy and safe home and offer good quality childcare, with excellent resources and equipment. The children have their own play room where lots of different toys and activities are available freely throughout the day. I provide home cooked meals everyday and healthy snacks.
my daughter works along side me, as my assistant on an occasional basis This is to ensure that the children in my care are having their own individual needs catered for and supported in order to help the children reach their full potential early on in life, as we can offer more one-to-one support on a regular basis.
I have my own transport and regularly attend playgroups and outings throughout the week. I can provide a pick-up and drop-off service from home and school. You can rest assured that your child will be looked after and leave at the end of the day happy and content.
If you would like anymore information on the service i provide, or would like to ask any questions please don't hesitate to contact me. References are available on request.

Well I really dont know where to start. Kate has been looking after my son for just under 3 years she has been truly amazing. He always comes home clean and content. The bond she built with him was so strong he calls her mommar. I really dont know what I'd of done without her. She encouraged his development by working with me in teaching him colours letters and numbers and always provided learning activities and games to help encourage and support his development. I always felt happy leaving my son in Kate's care as she cares for all children asif they were her own. He always got so excited as we were pulling onto her steet. Really I couldn't thank this woman enough for everything shes done for us!
