Kathy has been working with us for the last five and half years, caring for our 3 boys (now aged 3, 5 and 8), two days a week. She's been an integral part of our family since she joined us when our second child was 6 months old. She's friendly, punctual and brilliant with the kids. She was fantastic when the children were babies, a huge support to me as a mother, and as the boys have grown she's flexed around us. She always puts in the effort to find different activities each day, to make sure the children have a great time. We're going to miss her a lot.

Kathy is leaving us only because the children are older and in full time education/nursery - I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kathy to the parents of any young family.
