Tigers childminding's Reviews

Great childminder!

Our daughter has been attending Sue’s childminding since she was 12months old & she loves it!

We trust Sue not only cares for our daughter but also helps her with her development, both socially & emotionally. Sue is professional providing advice & feedback, which is always helpful as first time parents.

All the children we see at Sue’s are always happy & cheerful when I’m dropping/collecting my daughter & my daughter chats away about the other children there.

My daughter learns all sorts of things with Sue, by reading, playing with other children, arts & crafts & outdoor activities.

We are very pleased with our choice of childcare & very pleased we chose a childminder rather than a nursery. Most of all, we like the homely environment & friendly atmosphere!

Thank you very much Kate- Your daughter is always a pleasure to care for, she has grown into a very independent little being, loves to have her friends around her, and loves the older children here, she learns so much from them. Your daughter is so chatty, and learns new words every week, she has a mind of her own and shares her excitement with us all, I love having her as part of my setting.

Great childminder

Sue is a great childminder who is loved by my daughter who has been attending since she was 11 months old.

Sue provides a wide variety of activities each week which my daughter enjoys. From walks on the heathland, trips to the beach and parks as well as trips out to farms and play groups. She is always learning, regardless of what activities are being undertaken.

My daughter's speech has vastly improved over the last few months and she has also improved her counting and colours from being with Sue.

Sue's childcare experience has been very useful over the last 15 months my daughter has been attending. She has provided advice on potty training, illness, teething and more which I'm always grateful for!

I feel that Sue really cares about the children she looks after and like they are part of her family which is lovely.

My daughter often doesn't want to come home and says 'More Sue, more Sue ' when I've picked her up! So that shows that she enjoys her time there and Sue was the right person to choose to look after my little girl. So much so, that our newborn is already booked in!

Ah, thank you very much Vikki- I love looking after your daughter and being able to help her grow and develop, and enjoy her experiences throughout her time with me- She's a pleasure to have in my setting, 'F' is very friendly to the other peers and loves to please you and thrives on praise and encouragement. So please she will continue throughout your maternity leave, so we can have more adventures together.

Great childcare by an amazing lady

Our son loved staying with Sue, always talking about all the friends he has there and what they did together. I highly recommend her childcare. She offers different activities they do each week, takes children for walks, and to parks, playgroups, etc. Each little outing allows fun and learning in the process. Be it exploring wild life in the heathland or fish in the pond. The activities are varied to suit all ages. Sue really cares about the children she looks after and their development. She is promoting independance but helping when they are struggling, always striving to help them reach their next steps/goals. Tigger Tots 2 teens is a fantastic place for children and anyone looking to place their child with a childminder must see Sue.

Thank you Agnieszka for the positive review- I will greatly miss caring for your son. He had settled so well at the short time of attending 'Tiggertails'- and I was hoping to have continued his journey in learning and achieving his milestones throughout his vital year before starting school- he has an amazing character and was popular with his peers on role- Hopefully when the Government Guidelines extend children sharing settings, he may return to us to continue his learning journey.

Sue is wonderful highly recommended

Sue provides excellent care for my 2 year old son and has done for the last year or so. She takes great care to address his social needs and play with the other children. She also makes sure his educational needs are met and this is all tracked and signed off in accordance with early years education. Her care really is first rate and she is somewhat like a grandmother making sure our son is well cared for and his need are met. She givers detailed regular feedback via a daily journal with loads of pictures and also vocal feedback at the end of each day. Her communication is excellent and will call starlight away if she has any concerns she is also very flexible many times i have been held up and she is more than willing to extend childcare until i can get there. Needless to say as soon as we decide to get child care for our newborn daughter she will be cared for by Sue. I wholeheartedly recommend Sue for anyone looking for excellent childcare she is first rate and her prices are very reasaonable.

Wonderful childminder

My daughter has been going to Sue since she was 9months old and she is nearly 6. She creates a home from home environment for the children and really encourages learning and development at all stages. Sue is very flexible and is very respectful of my wishes as a parent. She is warm, caring and enthusiastic towards the children. My daughter is so happy and really looks forward to her time spent with Sue. I love that during holidays Sue ensures the children get to explore, play and have fun with lots of days out. She is very good at understanding how the children are developing and has always encouraged our daughter to grow in every way. In addition, she has always supported me as a parent, offered advice and encouragement along the way. Sue really has become part of my daughters family and we are very grateful to have such a fab childminder.

THANK YOU SOooo MUCH,
It's been a great pleasure to have had the opportunity of caring for your Daughter over the last 5 years- and hopefully still many more to go !!
Love watching her flourish and grow into a very confident independent individual, and has developed her characteristics of learning in every area possible- Her happy smiley personality making special friendships within the setting, I think will be lasting friendships for life. Love her enthusiasm every day for her zest in Life.

My son loves spending time with Sue

My son has been going to Sue since he was 10 months old, he has just turned 5. It’s safe to say he absolutely adores her. Sue encourages him to learn and be creative through a variety of methods such as messy play, dressing up and role play and is always out and about taking the children to the beach, park or other places like Moors Valley. I wouldn’t want my son to go anywhere else. Sue also does the school run too. My son has made some very good friends at Sues house and he is always happy when I pick him up (although often fairly tired from all that playing!)

Thanks Jane
I think its more of he keeps me busy in the Hols- 6,30 am prompt " What are we doing/going today? " Sue" !!
I've seen him grow and develop into a lovely caring boy ....

fab

My now 2 and 4 year old have been with Sue for the past year. They have loved it, and really feel it’s a home from home, except that Sue makes that extra effort to theme activities, get out the messy play (clothes always seem to stay clean!?!) and go on fun outings.
She is helpful and lovely to ‘work’ alongside and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.
