Kate was fab with both of our girls and clearly an experienced and caring mum, which showed when she looked after them. Completely putting both girls at ease and took our crazy schedule in her stride. Our 4 yr old loved playing games and doing activities with Kate and was more than happy to be left with her. As was her little sister (6 Months) who was calm and content and even when things were less so Kate was brilliant and kept them both at ease whilst we were both working. Highly Recommended.
