Fantastic Childminder

My daughter has been with Tamara for the last 5 years since she was 3 1/2. She has positively thrived under her care. Tamara has played a huge part in her development in that she has given my child guidance in manners, play, sharing and of course her loving care. Tamara provided wholesome food for my daughter on a daily basis. My daughter is now with Tamara before and after school, and has recently been joined by her younger brother. He has also settled down extremely well. I would not be able to work without the support and care that Tamara has given to my family.

Excellent childminder

My son has been with Tamara for just over a year now and he absolutely loves her and her family. He has such fun and is very well cared for, she provides healthy food and snacks and she always writes in his personal book about his day.
They go out almost everyday to do different activities and he is thriving in her care.

Wonderful childminder

Tamara has looked after my daughter since she was a year old - she is now five, finished her first year at school and both her sister are still looked after by Tamara during the school holidays.

I felt Tam 500 was a very caring person who I felt confident leaving my daughter with. They did lots of activities - from crafts and cooking to visiting local playgroups and libraries so I felt my daughter was well looked after and learnt so much. Tamara was very supportive and helpful with the various stages my daughter went through - from crying when I left, to not wanting to go when I picked her up!

Tamara cooked lovely food for them - they eat much better than they do at home! There is always a friendly welcoming atmosphere with all the children playing all sorts of imaginative games. I would really recommend her, the fact we still use her for holiday care shows how happy - and how lucky - we have had such a great childminder our children.

Excellent care

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.

Very Good

I have two children with Tam 500. My son who is now ten has been with her for five years and my daughter who is now 6 for three years. During this time I have always found the provision of childcare to be first class, I have never once found any need to speak to Tam500 about the way that she provides the childcare except in a complimentary way. The children are always happy and never come away from there unhappy. Tam500 always finds ways to stimulate the children mentally as well as physicaly and I have the utmost faith that once I leave Tam500 in the morning that the children are in a safe and caring environment. During the holiday periods she always finds places to take the children to and always ensures that they eat healthily during the day and also encourages the children to help make cakes etc. There is absolutely no problem in my recomending any parent to contact Tam500 as she is a first class childminder.
