My son has been coming to kate for the last year or so and has another year with her before school. I wouldn't even dream of putting my son anywhere else. I love the fact that they do outdoor activities along side their normal learning as my son loves being outside with insects and the dirt. Fantastic childcare at little seedlings from all workers. Kate is fantastic and can't help you enough. Thanks to kate and the team my son is going to be school ready in no time. :-) parent, childminder communications are great as your be sure to know what ypur child us getting up to on a regular basis.. highly recommended.
