Teamara Adams registered Bonding School in October 2013, after writing plans during any lightbulb moments that she had, whilst working as an SEN Teaching Assistant. Communications with a range of children, constantly had her questioning her path, how she bonded with her family, what she felt was missing, and what she could do to make a difference for other families.

Her past led her to become passionate about raising her own talented, happy, educated, loving family, as well as being a devoted carer and educator to other children and families around her.

Bonding School has come a long way from its humble beginnings upstairs in her twin’s bedroom where she first piloted family sessions to groups of her friends.

When Teamara first started out, her passion for encouraging families and children to bond together, through learning a range of different life skills, and encouragement from other parents, drove her to do intense research and quit her day job as an SEN Teaching Assistant.

Quitting her job did not come lightly, as she loved her job role, but as she was planning to build and operate Bonding Schools services during weekends and school holidays, her own childcare issues arose just after half-term, which happened to be the same half-term in which Teamara gained funding for Bonding School.

She took this as a sign, and became a registered Childminder, which she did for eight years whilst working alongside other passionate assistants including her partner, Gavin.

Whilst running Bonding School, they become oversubscribed and they decided to take a leap of faith to open their first nursery, Bonding School Nurseries in Bromley, with now their second nursery set to open in Crystal Palace in September 2025.
