Tina is a truly wonderful childminder. She treats my daughter with the same love, care and respect the way she would her own child.
I feel totally comfortable with my daughter in Tina’s care and I enjoy all the updates that Tina sends sprinkled throughout the day so I can see what my daughter has been up to.
They are always doing fun things!
Walks, park trips, the occasional farm trip also.
When the weather is very rainy or if my daughter doesn’t want to go out, there is a lot to do at Tina’s home, plenty of activities that my daughter can keep herself busy with. Plenty of arts and crafts, toys, as well as learning materials.
As Tina only takes on a small number of children per day, she is able to give better quality attention to the children she has within her care, which is a huge bonus.
I would thoroughly recommend Tina’s childminding service, you will be happy you found her, just like I am.

Tina is a wonderful childminder. She is very attentive and gives children more attention than other childcare workers I have known. She was constantly responding to his interests and providing new educational activities. We worked with Tina for a year, with my son going one day a week (from age 2-3) while he went to a nursery on two other days. This was often his favourite day of the week and he asked to go to Tina's on other days often once his language developed. Now I am on maternity leave so I am looking after my son myself but we miss Tina and we wish her all the best!
Highlights of Tina's: quality attention, trips to the park, support with potty training, fruit in the mornings, care.
