Like most parents I dreaded returning to work and the thought of some stranger looking after my most prized possession was quite hideous. I had already visited a fair few childminders before arriving at Kathy's door and I have loved ringing that bell everyday since.
My son has been with Kathy and her team since he was 9 months old and even now at school (Reception) he still absolutely loves spending time after school and in the holidays. It really wasn't long before he was excitedly running through that door and I was the one chasing him for a kiss goodbye.
Kathy is entirely professional, prepared and truly passionate about what she does, everything is centred on the children's growth, development and well-being and her warm caring approach resonates through the confident, happy, inquisitive children she has thankfully helped us all raise. The environment she has created at Lily Barn is absolutely wonderful, not many people put this level of care and consideration into developing their space, along with crafting interesting and age relevant activities for the children to do daily.
I cannot recommend Kathy and her team enough!
