Finding childcare for our only son was a nerve-wracking prospect, but the moment we met Tia, we knew she’d be a great fit for our family. Our son started with her at just one year old and is now leaving for school, we’re so sad to see this chapter end!
Tia has provided a fantastic setting for him. He was always so happy to go to her house every day. I honestly think he viewed it as his second home. He always ate so well with her, and we loved seeing him come back with his little crafts and hearing about his adventures.
She organised so many great trips out, as well as lots of fun activities inside and in the garden. They regularly met up with another childminder, which was brilliant for helping the kids socialise in larger groups. He also formed really strong friendships with the two other children in her care, which was lovely to watch and we will continue to keep up their friendship.
She has created a wonderfully supportive, home-from-home environment. Thank you for everything, Tia, we’d recommend you to any parent in a heartbeat!

Thank you so much it has been a pleasure to get to know you all and be a part of your lives for so long and yo watch your son grow and develop into the lovely young boy he is x
Tia is a wonderful childminder who creates a safe and welcoming environment for the children. Our little boy settled really quickly with her, and always enjoyed his time in her care. She provides a good balance between activities out in the community and at home, and spending time outdoors. We really appreciated her calm and flexible approach, her warmth and also the way our little boy was included in her family. Knowing our little chap was happy and settled with her made going back into work so much easier. I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Tia has looked after Lola, who is now 2, since she was nearly 1. Lola has thrived under Tia’s care and loves being with her and the rest of the family. Tia has been really supportive and flexible as we’ve dealt with the pressures that work can bring. I have always been confident that Lola is well looked after and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.
