My daughter has been with Toni tigers since September 2023. We would highly recommend this childminder from the start our daughter has always enjoyed her time and has come away so happy and enjoys going every week. Toni is professional, caring and we are kept informed after every session it's always lovely receiving pictures and reports of her progress. There is always a wide range of activities that are different every time she attends. It's a safe happy environment and we are glad we have the support from Toni.

Thank you so much, your daughter is a lovely friendly child, she is loving learning through play. Taking every thing in and is making good progress.
My child had been with colabear for just under a year, until she went to nursery, she was absolutely brilliant with her, my child was always safe and happy with her, always came back clean and tidy and always with a smile on her face, she would always tell me about the awesome things they got upto, from going to the parks, to going for walks, going to the local tots groups witch was fantastic, she would always come home with something that she had made that day, either at colabear house or at the group, I have some beautiful sentimental things that they took the time to make together, I loved my child being with her and never had any worries, would highly recommend her,
