My Summary
About Me
My name is Tamaris, I work with my husband and we offer a professional childminding service. I am Ofsted registered.
We have 3 children of our own aged 6,8 and 19.
I can offer a safe environment with a secure fenced garden and activities with plenty of things for the children to do!
I understand that some parents would prefer to have their young children cared for in more of a home setting than a nursery, this means that we can dedicate more one to one time with your child. We will be following the EYFS (early years foundation stage) in all seven areas of learning.
I have lots of toys and books, and there are plenty of activities that your child can do such as going on walks to the local park, the Library, painting, art, baking, nature trails, messy play, sing in, dancing, visits to our local farm and lots more!
Prior to minding I was a retail manager for eight years. Before that I worked in New York with Camp America teaching tennis to young children and also schools in the UK as a Class Assistant.
My Experience
Prior to Childminding I was a retail manager for fifteen years. Before that I worked in New York doing Camp America, I taught tennis to young children and also schools in the UK as a Class Assistant. I took part in school trips and led my own group at Leeson House.
We have looked after many different nationalities. Many didn't speak any English on starting and are now ready for school. We enjoy teaching different cultures to all children in our care.

I'm really unhappy about sending my child to her. She always finds a reason to send my child back when he has no problem at all (sometimes she says she doesn't play, sometimes she says she has diarrhea while I pick her up and she had no problem). In the contract she said she wouldn't charge when her family or she was on leave but she still charged me, it wasn't until I texted that she deducted it. Even though my child only sends her 2 days a week, we never let her go for the full day because every month she finds reasons for us to pick her up early while I always pay the full fee on time. I'm really disappointed. I trusted her when I saw the good reviews but I was completely disappointed.

My son recently started with Tamaris and Adam, he absolutely loves it there. Would recommend Petiteft to anyone looking for a safe home away from home experience for their young ones.
Overall
Our daughter started with Lou and Adam when she was 1 years old and has had the best time. It really is a home away from home; full of fun, care and joy. Our daughter came away happy every day and was always surprising us with what she has learnt over her time there. We couldn't recommend them enough!

Thankyou. We will miss her frowny face 😂 We have loved looking after her and her little singing voice. Should you ever need us I. The future you don’t hesitate to contact us xxx
My daughter is having 2 years since she is going to Tamaris. She absolutely love everything. The care Tamaris and Adam show to the children is amazing. They go above and beyond for the children. They are having a lot of fun and are learning many new things. I would choose Tamaris over everyone. Great person ever!

It’s been a pleasure looking after your little girl, she has a lovely character and very kind to all her friends. We will miss her when she starts school and isn’t with us as much. Xx
