After having a few bad experiences with nursery’s we decided to try out a child minder I was really concerned about this and reluctant after reading Tina’s reviews we decided we would give it a try and I’m so glad we did tons is absolutely amazing my son doesn’t take to many people but he loves going to Tina every morning Tina has my son full time through the week and she also takes my daughter to school and picks her aswell which enables me to work my full times job,tins takes such good care of all the kids she looks after they do fun activity’s every day they go to the park and have Yummy meals Tina has become a huge part of not only my children’s but my life too and will always have a place in our hearts. Tina is the best priced childminder i have seen very reasonable and will always go out of her way to help .

After struggling to find anyone to pick up our daughter up from a special needs school Tina came to our rescue. She formed a lovely bond with our daughter. Tina and her family were inclusive and not phased by my daughter's issues. Our daughter loved spending time with Tina

It was my absolute pleasure, shes such a beautiful natured girl and your such a lovely family, all the luck for the future xxx
My son Omari has been going to Tina’s since he was in reception and he is now in year 6. I couldn’t of asked for anyone better to mind my child. Tina and her family treats Omari as part of the family. Omari enjoys going Tina’s. Tina has been very support live of both my son and I throughly difficulties and even when I need advice on something. I would recommend Tina any day to anyone, she is a very caring and loving person.
