My daughter started with Carol shortly after her 1st Birthday and following the second Covid lockdown. I wanted a more personal setting for my little one as i felt it would be less overwhelming than a nursery setting and especially with being a lockdown baby!
Tiny Treasures was more than we could have wished for. Carol made us and our daughter feel so cared for a supported. She was so happy to go, from literally two sessions in she didnt even look back after sating goodbye to us which told me how happy she was to be there. We had twins arrive 6 months later and Carol was just brilliant in helping with the adjustments we all had to make but especially for our daughter who needed the consistency and attention. Our twins then started with Carol as well when they turned 1 and were just as happy and content! We later relocated and my biggest reason to not want to leave was because we had to leave Carol and her wonderful team. It really is the highest quality and most supportive childcare provider in the area by a long shot and we miss her dearly!

Carol is a gem - my little boy settled quickly and looks forward to going there. Her setting is beautiful and the children do a great range of fun and educational activities. Carol is also really good at communicating with parents and sharing updates and photos. We couldn’t be happier!

Thanks so much for the lovely review its an absolute pleasure caring for your Tiny Treasure!
Our daughter has been with Carol now for 2.5 years, and we feel so lucky to have found her, she really has been the most incredible Childminder from day one. Our daughter was only 1 when she first started with Carol, she had a hard time transitioning but Carol was so professional and understanding that she settled in very quickly. Now she absolutely loves her day at Carols, she looks forward to it every week and seeing her best friend there that has also been with Carol a similar time! It’s a real family setting and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough, she has been paramount in the development of our little one and we are forever grateful!

Thanks so much for the lovely review its an absolute pleasure caring for your Tiny Treasure!
Our son has been with Miss Carol at Tiny Treasures since he was 6 Months old. As he was so young, we did not think it appropriate for him to go to a nursery as they tended to be very loud and we did not want to run the risk of him being overlooked and his needs not being met.
After an endless hunt, we found Tiny Treasures, run by Carol. The setting is exactly what our family required. It is a smaller setting, perfect for children in a small group who get individual one to one attention and person centered development.
Carol invests time and energy into developing the children and focuses on where strengths and weaknesses are, paying a little closer attention when needed to assist in hitting key milestones.
At the end of every day there is a comprehensive handover of what our son has done and anything that could be worked on at home. Equally, if we are implementing something at home, Carol takes it on board and does the same in the setting so that there is no disconnect. As an example: we speak German to our son at home and sign with him. To ensure that he does not miss out on learning – Carol teaches him in German and English to solidify his linguistic skills.
In the last six months our son has developed so dramatically, we can honestly say a large part of that is due to his time spent at tiny treasures. He had his 12 month review recently and scored full marks!
Carol is an exceptional care giver and teacher who would be considered exemplary in the childcare field. This setting is highly recommended and it is an honour to have Carol and her team looking after our son.

Carol has been nothing but GREAT with our daughter. She joined at 13 months of age and has enjoyed every moment of it. She gets visibly excited when being dropped off, always has a big smile on her face when she sees Carol and looks happy and very content when being picked up.
When we were given a tour of Tiny Treasures it was immaculately clean and clear to see that it would be a great environment for our child's early learning and development.
Carol has always been a great communicator, flexible (within reason) and based on our child's affection towards her, an all round a wonderful person. Tiny Treasures is a fantastic and wonderful setting for children.

Carol looks after our daughter and she has the best time! Every morning she is so excited to get to Carol’s, and we know that she has the best time there.
She has been with Carol for almost a year and her progression has come on so far and it is all down to Carol. She plans different educational and fun activities every day and her food sounds so delicious, I get rather jealous.
Carol puts you at ease throughout the whole process at the start and is highly professional.
I really can not recommend her enough.

Carol's setting is spacious and well equipped. But more importantly, the level of care she gives is wonderful. I'm particularly happy knowing the learning and development needs of my daughter are taken care of.
I happily and highly recommend her to anyone who wants a caring and nurturing place for their little hunny!

Carol has been amazing helping us settle our 2 children (1yrs & 3yrs) into tiny treasures. This is our first time using a childminder and we are pleased we made the transition from a nursery setting. They are both really happy and I know this because their behaviour hasn’t changed plus my 3 yr old tells me he likes it there. It’s a home from home, they adore carols 2 daughters, eat well and have free run of the great play area indoors and out. It has also allowed the flexibility to keep our son attending his local preschool which was important to us and he really likes it when Carol is picking him up. He says he likes her big car with lots of seats! Carol is caring, attentive to their needs, excellent at communicating and being a working mother herself she can relate and has really made us feel at ease. We are happy we chose tiny treasures!
