Both my kids looked after by Kerry over the last 2 years and not once have we had any issues. Not once! Kerry is kind, friendly, flexible, accommodating and reliable. Both our boys were very happy and that's the most important thing for us. Kerry's house is clean and child friendly. Meals are cooked home made. Learning is through play and social interaction. Anything being taught at home, Kerry is happy to mirror to ensure continuity, for eg. potty training at 18 months old. She is aware of allergy risks. A good communicator, you get a verbal report at the end of each day, which also include any developmental progressions, through informal chat. Kerry looks after a diverse group of children which is great and is always patient. I have nothing but good things to say about Kerry. Look no further.

Thank you so much Nigel for the lovely review. I hope the boys are settling in at school and nursery, we miss them. Wishing you and your family the very best.
I cannot recommend Kerry enough! From the moment we met, I felt confident that my child was in safe and caring hands. She has created a warm, welcoming environment where my child feels at home and looks forward to going every day.
My child is safe in Kerry's care. Kerry is very attentive and caring. I never worry when she is at Kerrys. My child has learned so much(everyday tasks,talking,colours,potty training) and always comes home with a smile. Kerry maintains excellent communication, providing regular updates and photos, which really helps me stay connected to my child’s day. She is flexible with days and times. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality childcare.
Kerry has been looking after my son for almost a year and we (both him and me) couldn't be happier. Kerry is very kind and genuine. She treats all the children and parents with warmth and respect. My son misses going to Kerry's on the days she doesn't look after him. He gets healthy meals and Kerry has plenty of toys and a nice garden space for the kids to enjoy. Kerry always makes sure to tell me about my son's day, his behaviour, interaction with other children, what he ate etc. I'm very thankful Kerry was recommended to me. I would recommend her 100%.
Feel so lucky to have found Kerry, she was amazing with our children. Kerry was so patient, kind and reassuring. She built such a great connection with our children surprisingly quick. I always struggled to get my children to leave in the evenings as they were always so busy having so much fun. We sadly moved out of the area, but I wish we could have taken Kerry with us. Could not recommend her more.
As a first time parent, it was very difficult deciding where to send our daughter for her first nursery/childminder experience. I feel so blessed that we found Kerry. From our first meeting she was welcoming, kind and hospitable. She made our daughter feel comfortable and at home there. It was never a struggle to get her ready to “go to kerrys house”; she was always excited to go. Couldn’t have had a better experience with her.
