Our kids have had a wonderful time at Tamara's. Our eldest started at Tamara's when she was 1. We had intended originally for it to be a short term solution, as our daughter had a place at a local Montessori school from the age of 2. We loved the set up at Tamara's so much we decided to keep her at Tamara's, and now our two daughters are there.
Tamara's own kids (now young adults) are an absolute credit to her so I trust her whole heartedly to look after my own and we are so grateful to her for providing the girls with so many wonderful experiences.
Tamara is always taking the kids on mini adventures, spending a lot of time out in nature, exploring, playing and learning outdoors. This is so important to us, given kids will spend progressively more time indoors in classrooms as they move on to schools years.
Even when indoors, they're baking, crafting, making, dressing up, dancing, singing and just generally having so much fun!
They've learnt so much through play, and regularly come back having learnt new nursery rhymes, which we love!
They've forged really good friendships there too ❤️ it's lovely to see that develop.
And of course they love Fergus the cat too!
We're spoilt with Tamara's communication. We get weekly messages with "book of the week" and the food menu for the week (all home cooked, I know, lucky ducks!) and then daily updates with photos from the day (the kids grandparents look forward to getting these forwarded to them on the daily now too), as well as a diary with all key information (what they did, what they ate, how long they slept, wet/dirty nappies etc). Tamara also has folders for each of the kids which documents their development.
Our eldest daughter starts school in September, and she will miss Tamara, but I'm so happy that our youngest will continue at Tamara's until she's old enough to join her sister at school.
Overall, we feel incredibly lucky to have found Tamara and we highly recommend her to any family looking for trustworthy and experienced childcare.
