As first time parents we found it difficult to decide for a childminder until we met her. From the first moment we walk in to her house we felt like home, and even out 8 month old baby at the time felt comfortable enough to look around and start playing. We have been bringing our son to her for almost a year now, and we know he is not just in safe hands, but with someone looking after him like if he was part of her family (i like to think he already is anyway).
We love bringing him in and feel so at peace dropping him off, and the only struggle we have is when we forget to say goodbye as we walking in ready to play. Thank you Tarnya, for your time, effort, patience and support. We honestly could not do it without you!
I have a two year old who is extremely fussy with whom she’ll interact with and who she likes, she loved Tarnya instantly and cried when we left.
My daughter talks about Tarnya all the time and constantly asks when she’s going to Tarnies house.
The last four days they have been to soft play, the museum, the park and a farm and I get updated throughout the day of pictures of one happy little girl!
I spoke and met with a few childminders and nurseries before meeting Tarnya, none of them gave me the gut feeling I had when I met Tarnya.
How excited my daughter is to see Tarnya makes me know I made the right choice for my daughter and our family. I can’t recommend Tarnya enough!
Tarnya is really amazing at what she does - from first time we met, my daughter had a connection with her. We are so lucky as it feels like I leave my little one with family member, she is like auntie, always fun, always learning something new. Sometimes when i come to pick up my baby she doesn't even want to go! We love you Tarnies 💖
Tarnya has been our childminder and nanny for over a year, looking after our two-year-old daughter and more recently our 8 month old too. She has also stepped in to provide holiday care for our two older children, 7 and 5. Whether looked after at home in a childminder setting with other children, or in our house as a nanny, Tarnya is warm, loving and energetic. We noticed a huge development in our toddler’s language when Tarnya first started with her when she was one - she really responded to the way Tarnya talked through all the things they did together and I had the sense of Tarnya's huge experience with children who have lots of different needs. She’s constantly aware of how they are developing and gives lots of feedback on things they like. Most importantly, she provides a fun - and really funny - sense of play and has a genuine enthusiasm for the children as well as a brilliantly witty sense of humour and appreciation of the joys of parenting!
One thing I have really appreciated is that Tarnya is incredibly straightforward to deal with, and is efficient and quick at sorting out dates and times (even when we are dithering about juggling our timetable). She’s flexible but clear about her time and refreshingly direct and uncomplicated when sorting out pay and schedules. She has always been incredibly organised getting food and naps sorted on time and one of her strengths is how she manages completely different age groups in the same setting - our older children absolutely love her as much as the younger ones, and never get bored when they are with her as she adjusts the activities accordingly. She is extremely competent with all elements of child care, safety, food and driving etc. Basically, the feeling is of having all your children swept up in this amazing, jolly bubble and loved and cared for and kept safe and on the straight and narrow at the same time. Couldn't ask for more.
Tarnya has done ad hoc childminding and evening babysitting for our two children (3 and 6) over the last couple of years. She is wonderful with children, so warm and kind and always the centre of fun in the playground. Our kids say she is the funniest childminder and beg to go to her house! She takes such an interest in the kids and their development. As a parent, I've been so grateful for how flexible Tarnya is and always 100% reliable.
