A warm and friendly environment awaits children at this childcare setting, where communication and physical development are prioritized. Strong bonds are formed as language skills are supported through singing and movement activities. Physical development is encouraged via outdoor play and daily walks. Healthy habits and independence are promoted. However, behavior management strategies need more consistency, and further professional development could enhance outcomes for children.

I would without a doubt recommend tia for childminding not only is she such a lovely lady she is so friendly kind and treats every child as her own. Tia has my 3 year old son and he absolutely loves spending time with tia and her family. Since my son has been with Tia he has learnt so much in a short time and having an amazing time doing it! I love how all the kids stick to the learning criteria and have free play time aswell, seeing my sons learning journal and how far he has come in a couple of months makes me glad my son goes to her near enough everyday :) x
