My Summary
About Me
I am a mother of 2 children - Freddie 20 and Poppy 18. I am a caring, warm, energetic and fun loving person who is also very flexible and hardworking.

These involve cookery, arts and crafts and projects on current topics.

Kath has been an absolute godsend to us providing excellent childcare to our son. Our son finds transitions in childcare tricky but Kath made this so smooth for him, with her wonderful upbeat, fun, nurturing and kind manner that had our son and us at ease immediately. Kath has such an eye for detail too and is an incredible cook. I always know at pick up my son has been cared for lovingly and nourished with a wide variety of delicious home cooked food. Thank you Kath for giving us such peace of mind and providing such a safe and fun environment for our son.

My kids love, love Kath, she is simply wonderful. They have been with her for about a year now and they enjoy their time there. The first few weeks are usually very hard for any parent to leave their kids with someone new (hard for the kids too) but Kath made this process smooth and comfortable. Kath gave me the peace of mind that the people taking care of our kids really care for them. My little one insists to give her a hug goodbye! It is quite a small and intimate setting as well, so the kids get all the attention the need- My kids needed that support with their dad away for about 7 months.
I am so glad we found Kath and would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat.
