Wonderful childminder

Reviewed

My little girl started with Tasha when she started reception in Ysgol Treganna age 4, and has been going before and after school (and sometimes in holidays too) for three years. She absolutely loves it at Tasha’s.

When she first went to Tasha’s she was really struggling with the start of school and change of routine. It was during covid and we had tried a different childminder but my daughter just wasn’t settling, getting more and more distressed every day. I explained this to Tasha on the phone and she suggested meeting her first in the park at the end of the day. That way we could meet her and have a chat, my daughter could meet and play with the other children in her care, and I could speak to the other parents too as they picked up. Tasha asked what my daughter was interested in and what healthy snacks she liked so she could buy them. She really went out of her way to make that first meeting as inviting as it could be. She chatted with my daughter about the things she liked and was kind and patient. My daughter warmed to her straight away (and so did I!) I just knew we were in safe hands.

There were still some tears and tantrums at drop off for a little while, understandably, but Tasha is always caring and calm, gentle but firm, and my daughter settled very quickly.

Tasha provides loads of stimulation for the kids, going to the park after school in the summer and having a never ending supply of crafts, which my daughter absolutely loves. She also loves going to Tasha’s some days during the holidays, when she gets to have a whole day of fun at Tasha’s without the interruption of school!

I really cannot recommend Tasha highly enough and feel so incredibly lucky to have found her.
