Tina has looked after my 2 children for a couple of years now and they absolutely adore her and her family. My kids are happy and feel very safe and secure in her home and they are always excited to tell me what they have been learning about and what new fun activities they have done each day. Tina goes above and beyond to make sure that the kids are settled and happy and she put us at ease with her positive, kind and calm manner, also keeping us up to date throughout with what the children are doing and passing on messages from school too. Tina's house is a home from home and she has a great outdoor space for the kids to use. She is very thoughtful, always acknowledging special days like birthdays and family celebrations, and always makes sure that the kids have fun. I am so lucky to have found Tina and would recommend her to anyone I know.

Our daughter went to Tina's from around 1 years old untill now she is 4 ready to start school. My daughter lived for her days at Tina's asking to go on her days off. Tina is always doing things educational and fun. Tina always worked around us with work commitments over the years. Our daughter developed so fast with Tina learning her along the way. From the moment I met Tina I could tell she puts all of her heart into her child minder. Very much home from home,never had any concerns about how hannah was being looked after very safe and loving woman. Generally sad that the time at Tina's has ended and will always stay in touch. Thankyou so much Tina Xx

Tina is the most wonderful Childminder I could ever wish for. My 20 month old daughter has been going to Tina for over a year, she has a wonderful time and is always excited to go to Tina's.
In the time she has been attending, Tina has helped my daughters development hugely, and helped to build her confidence.
My child's time is always full of educational and exciting activities, whilst in Tina's care, as well as attending toddler groups she gets plenty of interaction with other children.
