About Me

My name is Kathryn and I live in Burnley, near the Football Club. I am a fully qualified childcare practitioner with over 12 years experience.

I offer high quality childcare, in a welcoming and stimulating home environment with the opportunity for children to grow and develop.

I offer before and after school care (linked to Brunshaw Primary). My opening hours are 7:30-5:30.

I cook healthy, home cooked lunches and will often encourage the children to get involved. I also live nearby the beautiful Townley Park, which we visit regularly as well as other trips out.

My setting offers the opportunity for every child to learn and reach their full potential. A typical day at our setting will involve:
- Breakfast time
- Groups at our local Children's Centre
- Healthy, hot lunch cooked from scratch
- Music session
- Trips to the farm/park/museums
- Story time
- Sensory play (Water/cereal/foam)
- Arts and crafts

The children are free to choose their own resources and follow their interests.

Thankyou for taking the time to look at my profile.

Kathryn, is very good with children and can immediately connect with them. She is a trustworthy person and very reliable. She has looked after my little boy often and he loves her.
Would definitely recommend.
