About Kathy

58 years old Speaks English
Hi, I am a retired Nurse and have many years of experience caring for newborns, babies and toddlers, and school aged children (including having 3 of my own). A very quick history - I was a School Nurse for many years and have worked alongside Health Visitors monitoring child development, and Specialist Midwives supporting Mothers and Babies with feeding problems. I have an Enhanced DBS certificate and can provide excellent references. Now I am retired from the NHS I would like to offer my services as a Nanny/Mothers Help to provide care for babies/children in their own homes. Maybe you have just had your baby and would like help just for the first few weeks, or for overnight feeds, or just to care for baby for a few hours while you get some sleep! I offer different packages, from hourly or ad hoc care, to a half or full day care, overnight care and weekends (depending on availability.) My children had a wonderful childminder, they called her their "other Mummy". To be able to leave your children with someone you can trust, in the comfort of your own home, with their familiar routines, knowing they are in safe hands, playing and happy, brings the greatest peace of mind.

Kathy was fantastic! She looked after our 18 month old while we were attending a wedding. Kathy arrived early and made sure she had a full understanding of our daughter’s requirements. Our daughter loved her and had so much fun with her and took great care of her. Would highly recommend!
