Profile
Hi, my name is Natasha (Tasha) and I run my setting at my home in Oxted, Surrey.
I am a Quality Assured Registered Childminder. I was graded OUTSTANDING by OFSTED and have been nominated for 2 awards.
OFSTED report and excellent references/testamonials available on request.
I offer a holistic approach to childcare which addresses each child individually. My mission is to build confidence and a love of learning through play, giving children a solid foundation for a healthy and happy life.
I am dedicated to working with families to help each child discover their unique potential – academically, socially, and interpersonally.
