My Summary
About Me
I'm a registered Ofsted childminder in the Watford/Oxhey area.
I live with my husband and three beautiful children, Lewis aged 6, Daniel aged 4 and Ava 3 years old.
I have a house with a large garden and an open planned kitchen. In addition to this, I live in close proximity to local parks where we love to explore the great outdoors, playgroups and library's.
I have parking outside my house for easy drop offs and pickups.
My Experience
I'm a registered childminder with 3 kids under the age of 5.
My passion is working within the EYFS to develop children's goals using their interests while playing.
There are lots of exciting activities that children of all ages can take part in including, sand play, water play, singing time, painting, drawing, craft activities, phonics and number play, movement and dancing, mark making, cooking, baking and reading. I am lead by children's interests, as this keeps them engaged and learning while playing.

Amelia has been with Katie for the last two years and I can honestly say there wasn’t a single day she didn’t look forward to going. If Amelia could, she would have happily gone on weekends too!
Katie has been an incredible caregiver, always looking after Amelia with the utmost care and attention. She has consistently taught her new skills, following EYFS guidelines, and created a warm, nurturing environment. Katie’s own children are bubbly, playful, and so welcoming, which made Amelia feel like part of the family. The children always have so much fun together.
Katie has gone above and beyond in every way—even helping with nursery pick-ups. Now that Amelia has started full-time school, we are thrilled to continue attending Katie’s during half-term breaks.
Katie’s attentiveness and dedication shine through in everything she does. She provides regular updates, complete with wonderful photos throughout the day, which are such a joy to receive. I wholeheartedly recommend Katie’s childcare services. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

My son had the most amazing time with Katie and her lovely family. She was so caring and nurturing and always put so much thought into the activities she provided. Great communication and flexibilty- my son was so sad to leave her when he began nursery! Would totally recommend Katie, such a lovely, warm person!

Katie has taken my boy under her wing and really looks after my 1 and a half year old . She has him all day on Mondays and she sends me regular updates and always communicates with me.
She is welcoming, warm and friendly and would recommend her to anyone!
