Thank you so much for a brilliant review. I'm so happy you are pleased with the childcare I offer for your son.

excellent

5 stars

We know Tamme since September 2022,when she started child-minding our four years old son Aaron.
She is an excellent childminder, who offer support and understanding to our son. At the start it was difficult for Aaron with the language barrier, but Mrs Johnson was very patience and helped him to accommodate. She is very supporting with the school, giving us updates with Aaron’s progress at school.
We are very grateful we met her and she’s taking care of our son.

Thank you for such an excellent review. I am so pleased you are happy with the childcare I offer for Aaron

Best childminder EVER!!

5 stars

I have two children spanning several childminders over the years and categorically, hands down, Tamme has been rhe best! My youngest has ASD and initially Tamme was concerned she did not have the experience, working together and keeping the communication going, Tamme has proven that you don't need to tick boxes on paper, or have degrees in SEN, you just need to be patient, have good boundaries and work as a team with the parent/s. Tamme nails it and my son loves spending time with Tamme. Holiday care and activities are taken care of, Tamme loves to be out and the children get to experience the outdoors as much as possible, which is good for their health and wellbeing.....

Tamme's meals are also second to none.....and the children all love her "secret bolognaise" sauce and pasta.

Sincerely, a very happy parent!

Thank you so much for a fantastic review. I'm so pleased you have been happy with the childcare I provided. It shows working together is paramount to successfully childcare. I look forward in looking after your son in the school holidays.

Brilliant Childminder

5 stars

Tamme looked after my son over the Summer holidays, she went above and beyond to provide a range of outings for the children. My son also loved her garden and the many Lego games they played! Knowing that your child is safe and having a fun-filled day is a huge blessing.

Thank you so much for a brilliant review. I'm so pleased your son had a great time in the holidays. If ever you need help with childcare again please give me a call.

Experienced lovely lady, highly recommended

5 stars

Tamme looked after my son for several years, both term time and holidays, whilst he was at primary school. He enjoyed the time spent at her house and the trips out. He especially liked building Lego with her husband and playing in the garden. He said the meals she cooked were very good and her pasta and bolognese were really nice. He especially liked the chicken wraps and was constantly asking for them. He enjoyed a variety of days out during the holidays-beach, cinema, park, swimming, zoo. She is a very friendly lady who soon becomes more of a friend than a childminder. Her house was always clean and tidy and she always had a smile on her face. She was flexible with my working hours, easy to talk to and very experienced with handling children of all ages.

Outstanding Childminding Service!

5 stars

Tamme provides an exceptional childminding service in a lovely, spacious and clean setting. My husband and I both work long hours, and having someone that i could trust to collect my son and care for him in a comfortable setting was incredibly important. From the moment we met Tamme I knew that he would be happy in her care. He would always came home with a smile on his face, telling me how he had enjoyed playing with the other children out in the garden or with the many toys and games that she has for them. The food that she provided was of great quality. His favourite nights were when she served her homemade pasta sauce, which is apparently ‘the best in the land’! I need to up my game!
Overall I can highly recommend this childcare provider. In my opinion, she is one of the very best in the area.

Couldn't have been happier with Tamme

5 stars

From the moment I met Tamme I knew I had found the right person to care for my daughter. She and I hit it off immediately and more importantly, so did my daughter.
Tamme could not have been more supportive and kind when my little one went through a stage of crying a lot (just because she could) and came up with all sorts of ideas to help deal with it. My daughter was always so happy to be with Tamme, loving the activities and various toys/games.
I would not hesitate to recommend Tamme and can't rate her highly enough.

Lovely lady......

5 stars

Tamme is a lovely lady who has a natural rapport with children and parents alike. She collected my daughter from school daily and I knew I could rely on her first-rate care to provide my daughter with a safe, happy, positive, family friendly environment to spend her after-school time in. When in Tamme’s supervision, I could carry on concentrating on working instead of being concerned for my child’s well-being – what more does a parent want!
In my opinion Tamme is not only a childcare professional but she is also an understanding and caring woman who has children of her own, making it easy to discuss any issues your child has with her.
I would gladly recommend her services and wouldn’t hesitate to contact her if I ever require childcare in the future.

Reliable and committed childminder

5 stars

Tamme has been my daughter's childminder for about 7 years from when she was nursery age till year 6. She has been a fun and consistent part of Phoebe's week for a long time and only now she is leaving for secondary school she is sad to leave the positive relationship they had. She has cared well for Phoebe and during term times has been a reliable dropper off and picker up from school. She has had consistent rules in her house where Phoebe knew where she was. She has had Phoebe on extra development days and polling days and enterianed with trips to parks and soft play places. She has fed Phoebe with good dinners and had a lovely big garden to play in with her friends. Phoebe has really loved her time with Tamme and will now miss her as she moves onto new times. Thank you Tamme for caring for her so well for so long and being a happy face for me when I drop her off and pick her up too!
