My son started with Tam 500 when he was 6 months and I returned to work. It is anxious time as a parent but I was very happy to have found such a wonderful childminder in Tam 500 that I felt very happy leaving him each day. My son is now two and a half years and she has provided a real home from home environment for him during this time. He is nurtured through stimulating play and crafts/art/cookery, she is very active within the childminder network and constantly challenges herself as a childminder by attending courses to keep her skills relevant which in turn creates new learning opportunites for my son. I would whole heartedly recommend Tam 500 and her home to anyone looking for an excellent childminder who will genuinely care for your child's individual needs and also as someone, as a parent, you can trust and work with.
