Tamara has been looking after our little boy (19 months) for the past couple of months and we have been really happy with her care. The children spend a lot of time playing outdoors, which was something that was really important to us, and the outdoor setting is a beautiful, safe space for them to explore. Our little one has a great time going there, and it’s such a relief to know we have found somewhere so nice for him to be looked after while we’re at work.

Tamara has been looking after our 1 year old daughter for some time now and we could not be happier with how well our daughter settled in and how comfortable she is. Tamara’s setting is amazing and we are extremely lucky to have found her. We have no tears at drop off despite our daughter being an extremely sensitive baby which tells us everything. We are over the moon happy with Tamara’s care. Would recommend without any hesitation.

Choosing a childminder for our son was one of the most important decisions we made, and we couldn’t be happier with Tamara.
One of the things that initially drew us to Tamara’s was the beautiful outdoor setting she offers. Surrounded by woodland, a space where our little boy can explore, discover, and let his imagination soar. All types of outdoor activities can be enjoyed due to the size and nature of the setting.
Tamara has been looking after our little boy for some months now and creates a nurturing environment where he feels safe, extremely happy and comfortable. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful childminder and would definitely say that if you have a child that is already walking, Tamara's would be very hard to beat.

We started using Tamara for our baby in February - initially I was nervous at the thought of leaving our four month old however Tamara instantly made us feel comfortable. She has a lovely setting for the children and is very adaptable to us and what each individual child needs. We can see that our baby is always happy there which is the most important thing. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a childminder service in the Dorking area.
