Frequently asked questions

How many children does Caroline look after at once?

As a registered childminder, Caroline can care for a maximum of six children under 8 at any one time, of whom no more than three may be under 5. In practice the setting is kept intentionally small for quality of care.

What happens on the first visit?

The first visit is a relaxed, informal tour of the setting. You can bring your child if you’d like, ask any questions and get a feel for the environment. There is absolutely no obligation to book.

Are meals and snacks included?

Yes — all sessions include appropriate meals and snacks. Full days include breakfast, a hot lunch and an afternoon snack. Morning sessions include breakfast and lunch. Dietary requirements are always accommodated.

Can I use my funded hours?

Yes. Tumble Tots accepts 15 and 30 hour free childcare funding for eligible 3 and 4 year olds, as well as Tax-Free Childcare and employer childcare vouchers. Please ask Caroline for details on how to apply.

What is the notice period if I need to leave?

The standard notice period is four weeks. Full details are set out in the childminding contract, which is provided and discussed before any placement begins.

How will I know what my child has been doing?

Caroline provides daily updates through a digital learning journal, including photos and observations. At pick-up there is always a verbal handover to share how the day has gone.
