Our daughter has been with Tess for a little while now and we’re so happy she is settled and enjoying her time in her setting. We tried a nursery to start and our daughter had a really rough time there and just wouldn’t settle at all, but only after a week with Tess, she was calmer and doing better after drop offs. Now she waves me off at the door!
We receive consistent updates which is really nice to have and appreciated.
Tess is calm, caring and always puts the children first, with activities, care, and nutritious meals/snacks.
She’s very accommodating which has been even more helpful with me returning to work. Her home is clean and always set up for the children when we arrive
Our daughter loves Tess and being in her care, and has really developed her social, verbal skills and is definitely learning more everyday.
Would definitely recommend!

Thank you for this review Mica, I’m so pleased to C settled and happy in the setting. I look forward to her happy smiles and hugs first thing in the morning 😊
Both my kids love her. My 2 year old was unsettled in the nursery for almost over a year. But as soon as we put him at Tess’s home nursery he was happy and settled within a week. He feels really safe and happy. My son is also learning and developing there according to his milestones. Tess has always made sure his needs were met and makes every day really interesting according to his likes. She also makes nutritious homemade food. She always communicates with me and gives me an update of my kids. She is also very flexible. Her house and garden is always very clean as well.

Thank you so much for this review Ishrath, gives me such joy that the boys have settled well. I love having them in my setting.
I have been really happy with the care my child receives. Tess is professional, well organised, and always communicates clearly with me about how things are going. It gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in capable and caring hands. Tess is calm and creates a warm and structured environment where my child feels secure. She has a strong focus on education, good nutrition, and making learning fun.

Teresa is looking after my son after school and I’m really pleased with her service.
Also my child is very happy which is most important. She is entertaining kids with different activities, helping with homework’s reading and general doing great job with whole heart.Im receiving pictures on daily basis what activities he does each day .Also preparing food together with kids etc.
I had experience with different childminders in the past and honestly Teresa is one of the best.
