Hello Philipp,
...It's an English term and as far as I remember it stand for
Time, Love & Craftsmanship, but I guess native English speakers
can verify it.
While that fits the acronym (and perhaps those words are associated
with TLC in the UK), in the U.S., I've always heard it expanded out to
"Tender Loving Care". The resulting meaning is the same as you
propose in this context (though it skews a bit when referring to
giving a person some "TLC").
