My son, Jani, started with Tina when he turned 1 year old, in Jul 2021. From the beginning the communication with Tina was easy and straightforward. We have visited Tina’s setting prior Jani started with her and she clearly communicated and explained how she works and what she needs from us. We knew from that point that we have chosen the right person to care for Jani. She put our minds at ease with her regular messages and pictures where we could see Jani is doing well and is happy while at her setting and spending time with her. She spends lot of time outdoors at different playgrounds which is in line with what we have wanted for Jani to do. She also takes kids to different play groups where they play with different toys and meet other kids. Saying that Tina has a whole room full of toys at home for different children’s ages including lot of educational toys. She supported Jani with learning his alphabet and his counting. While at her settings he learned many new words and started to put sentences together. This was very important for us as we speak different language at home. She taught him how to put on his coat and shoes and other daily usuals and necessities. She regularly takes kids to dance and movement classes, cooking classes, ZOO and multi-sports classes, which is amazing as Jani has got not only to experience different settings and met different kids but also learned something new every time. Jani has absolutely loved going to Tina’s, playing with other kids and also her son Alfie, who always had time for Jani. Jani absolutely adores Tina’s husband and always talks about him at home
In summary Tina has made everything easy for us from the beginning to the last day and taught Jani many life and academic skills. Therefore, I would highly recommend her for anyone that is looking for a childminder. In fact, I will be booking her services again if we are lucky enough to have another child. We had to move Jani to nursery from Aug 23 as we needed a care for Jani until 6pm every day and Tina works only until 4pm and doesn’t work Fridays. Two months on and he is still asking to go to Tina & Dave.
