Tor is amazing !
My son loves her, as they do a lot of activities and he doesn't even has time to get bored or to miss me too much! They spend time outdoors too, and I am glad they do, as my son loves walking and playgrounds. Arundel is a lovely town, and
they go to feed ducks, see the birds etc...Tor will always keep me updated with photos during the day, which is another great thing about her.
Thank you Tor for your services !

Tor took care of our 4 year old while we were on holiday in Sussex. She arrived on time and immediately befriended the little one. They had a great day of walks, Uno, arts and crafts and we came home to a happy kid! Thanks Tor, would highly recommend!

Tor has looked after our daughter for a few months now. She's very reliable and has been very accommodating of my partner's and my flexible work schedules. She's always looking for new ways to help my daughter learn and explore and is great at keeping us updated with lots of pictures of what our daughter gets up to throughout the day. In addition to all of this, Tor is very caring and has been so patient and kind with us and our daughter. I'd highly recommend Tor!

Tor has been providing childcare for my son for the last few months and he has settled in right from the beginning. He always has a fun filled day with lots of activities/playgroups/outdoor play and Tor even manages to get him to eat his vegetables which is a miracle!!
I also love that Tor sends updates/photos throughout the day so we can see what fun they have been up to.

We unexpectedly found ourselves without childcare cover and reached out to Tor . Thankfully she was really prompt to reply, answered any queries and even arranged an evening’ meet and greet ‘ for us to feel reassured that our daughter was going to cope in a new environment. There was no need for concern. With Tor’s help , our daughter settled incredibly well and had a fantastic time. She sent us updates throughout the day which was great to see all the activities she had managed to fit in. We have already booked a few more sessions going forward and more than happy to recommend Tor.
