My daughter is always happy with Natasha

When my partner and I first met Natasha we instantly warmed to her and knew that she was the best childminder that we had met to look after our little girl. She came across as so calm and caring. As any mum wants to feel when she returns to work our instincts have been proven right.

Our daughter is always content with Natasha. Tasha's own daughters' treat her like a little sister from the moment we arrive at the door which is so reassuring. They are always off to different places and during the holidays go a little further a field to places such as St Fagans and Castell Coch. Just what any child needs is new experiences to keep them appropriately stimulated in order to aid their learning and development.

We haven't thought ahead to school yet but we are hoping our decision means that Tasha can continue looking after our daughter.

Our child loves going there

We've been really pleased by the care Natasha has given our child and feel really lucky to have found her. She does lots of great activities with our little girl and we can honestly say that she loves going there, as proved by the way she jumps out my arms when we arrive! It's been particuarly nice to see our child being so welcomed by Natasha's own children too. Overall would thoroughly recommend to other parents in the area.

Cheery, fun, caring and professional

Natasha has looked after my two children for over a year now. She clearly loves her job and always shows enthusiasm and care for both of them. Natasha looked after my baby daughter from 9 months old. Natasha made leaving my baby as comfortable for me as possible and my daughter has never had a problem being left with Natasha. Natasha's daughters seem to dote on her too, and they get on wonderfully. My elder son recently commented how much Natasha must love looking after them, as she sings and has fun while giving them breakfast, along with the other children in her care. We are very lucky to have found her.

A happy and content child!

Our daughter Freya is 15 months old and has been going to Tasha since she was 9 months, two full days a week. She is a bit of a livewire(!) but always comes home from a day with Tasha so happy, calm and contented. It was what made us choose Tasha in the first place - she came across so organised, chilled and calm when we first met her and this really seems to rub off on Freya.

It's a big deal handing your most precious possession to someone else, but from the beginning Tasha has made it so easy and relaxed. She keeps a little notebook of what Freya's eaten and when she's slept and generally how she's been each time, like a little report book, which is great (and a nice keepsake!)

Tasha has another couple of little ones with her the same time as Freya and her own two daughters who are older and we think it's great for Freya to be around other kids - we've noticed a real difference in her social progression, physical abilities and language and we put this down to playing with children of all ages at Tasha's and the teaching Tasha does with her. She even sings songs when she gets home from her day at Tasha's!

Tasha takes the kids out every day to a variety of groups - last week Freya went to Duffryn Gardens and they often go to local soft play groups or larger play centres for example.

Freya leaps out of our arms at Tasha when we drop her off and cries when she leaves, which says it all really. We could not be happier with how settled she is. Not sure what we would do without Tasha now! Thank you! X
