Claire's Reviews

Below are the reviews that Claire has written.
This reference is to confirm that I have known Mary Tadros in a professional capacity as my daughter's childminder. Mary has cared for my daughter for a period of 4 years and I have been very happy with the service she has provided and work ethic. I can confirm Mary has provided excellent care and my daughter has developed really well. Mary supports the children in her care with their learning needs whilst developing the child’s own interests.
My daughter really enjoys arts and crafts activities and Mary has focused on this interest and encouraged my daughter to develop her skills. Not only developing my child’s own preferred interests but also providing new experiences such as horse riding as well.
Mary would regularly take my daughter on activities which she enjoyed providing the detailed attention to ensure my daughter thrived in her care. She was also up to date with childcare developments and kept diligent records of my daughter’s progress. Mary was also happy to work longer hours and put in the extra effort if needed.
The space for the children to play and relax is very well set out and my child has felt comfortable and at home. Mary has taken the time to develop a very good bond with my daughter. My daughter loves and trusts Mary and really enjoys spending time under her care. In the earlier years Mary focused on the EYFS to develop my chid, but as my child has grown she has provided appropriate activities and help relevant to her age. I do feel Mary is very conscientious and pays attention to each child’s own personal needs.
Mary has numerous year’s experience in working independently and has always produced fantastic results. Mary also has a passion for health and safety. Whilst Alina was under Mary's care all the relevant protocols were followed and I was assured my child was always safe and secure. Mary would cook delicious and nutritious meals for my child, using a number of ingredients with a focus on traditional English and Egyptian cuisine. There was always fresh fruit and vegetables and my daughter has now developed very good healthy eating habits I am sure which will have lifelong benefits to her health. Regular exercise was also planned, including trips to the park which all helped my daughter’s development. My child’s medical needs (allergies) were always catered for and I really can say my daughter has thrived in Mary’s care.

My daughter settled very well with Mary.
The setting was spacious and Mary was doing lots of different activities to stimulate the children artistic skills and talents using a variety of crafts, cooking and play, both inside the house and in the garden/outdoor area.
Mary provides a stimulating environment for the children and works around the individual child’s routine.
Mary makes lovely healthy food of different cuisines so the children can try and be familiar with different textures of food, my child loves her food and has tried new things with Mary as well. It is all home cooked and nutritious.
The communication was brilliant in terms of knowing what the children are doing, Mary sent regular WhatsApp picture updates and I was very happy with the care of my child. This definitely reassured me my daughter was well cared for as a parent.
