A genuinely lovely childminder!

A year ago, we decided to send our 2 year old son to Kate when his nursery suddenly closed. Kate was a godsend to us as both of us wanted a caring childminder for our son at flexible hours given both of us leave for work by 7 am. Kate and her family have never failed us. Kate with her husband Flavio and daughter Natalia are doing an exceptional job caring for the little children at the Tot Lot Club. Our son grew up almost a year with them, and he loves them!
Being super busy working in the hospital, we often need to be at work by 7:15 am. We get our 2 year old son ready by 6:30 am which to a small child can be super annoying, but our son after starting at Kate’s place soon began to show how keen he is to go to Kate’s place at such an early hour of the day, which tells a whole lot about how he enjoys his time at the Tot Lot Club! Before Kate, he would despise going to nursery or the previous childminder, but this stark change when he started with Kate amazed us! Children absolutely respond well when they receive candid affection and kindness from heart instead of perfunctory superficial courtesy, and this we feel is the difference that made our son fall in love with Kate, Flavio and Natalia who are genuinely kindhearted lovely people!
We also feel our son gained a lot of social skills at Kate’s place and after being at the Tot Lot Club, he is now a very happy and friendly child who easily makes friends.
Our son loves Flavio! Almost everyday on our way home from Kate’s place, he adorably says how Flavio read to him and played with him. Kate provides great food that our son enjoys, and her daily menu is ever so healthy. The entire atmosphere at Kate’s place is super child friendly and all of them are extremely professional.

Since we are moving houses, we sadly have to leave Kate, but we hope that our (now 3 years old) son will hopefully remember the precious times he had with them! Kate had made sure that we have received a whole lot of happy memories of our son at the Tot Lot Club everyday as she never forgets to send us photos with daily updates.

If you want your little one to be looked after well with love, kindness and affection by a truly professional childminder, Kate and her loving family will always be recommended by us.
