My Summary
About Me
I am a qualified childcare provider,who loves children and is interested in their personal growth. Through my work and personal experience with children I have adopted many skills to encourage child development. Such as fine and gross motor skills, social development skills, educational development, such as reading, writing, puzzels etc. For older children I do introduce reward charts, activity games and self-praise, on every achievement, no matter how small.
I am married with 3 sons, one is at secondary school,the other 21 months and the other is a self- employed gas engineer. Having such a big gap between my children keeps me in touch with all ages. Which is beneficial If you need child care for older children during the school holidays.
After working for 6 years in the nursery settings, I have finally decided to work from home, where I can fully dedicate my talent within a small group of children, where I can focus more on their personal needs. I love to care for children of all ages, I find them amazing and enjoyable.
If you would like some information on my services then please call me for a chat.

My son has been going Tamara's for over 6 months now, its a nice, safe welcoming environment she makes sure to give him healthy food and snacks throughout the day which my son loves talking about. she also has a wide range of toys for all ages and goes out to playgroups or the park, so my son is never bored and is always excited to go there. I would recommend Tamara to anyone! Me and my son love her lots and will never go back to a nursery as long as Tamara's around. xx
