My 17m old son has been going to Cathy since Sept 11, he absolutely loves it, she is a very caring person who is clearly devoted to every child she looks after. She spends lots of time doing activites for the kids and making sure they are all happy. All the kids in her care are happy being there and want to stay! which says something about how fun she is! The home enviroment is very child orientated with lots of variety of toys and activity, the family setting is also lovely. Cathy is very flexible and will do her best to work around your situation. I would have no worries about recomending her to anybody, wish I could take her home, she is a real life Mary Poppins
