Tracie is absolutely fantastic! Our little boy truly adores her and loves being in her care (she is now like family!). Tracie is very warm and friendly, along with being extremely professional. Her knowledge and engaging activities, have really impacted our sons development and we couldn't be any more happier. Tracie provides all the children with a lovely play/learning environment and always organizes fun trips out (library, park, toddler group, nature excursions), along with healthy nutritious meals and snacks. She provides us with daily updates, which we love to receive :) and we 110% recommend Tracie!

awww LIZ thankyou so much for a lovely review , equally feel very honored to be part of your lives, I adore your little boy hes a superstar xxx
I cannot begin to describe what Tracie has brought to our lives! She has cared for my two children since they were 9m old. Now 3.5yrs and 12m. She is like an extra member of the family. The kids have so much fun there, they've essentially never been upset about going because they've always had a great time. They feel secure and loved - it's so obvious how much Tracie cares for every single child in her care.
Whilst the kids are having fun they're also learning loads. Tracie puts loads of thought into their development and always plans activities that suit the different ages of kids she's caring for to bring them on just that bit more. They get out and about to loads of different places and get a really good run around. They also read lots and have frequent library trips.
She cooks healthy food that the kids like. And she gets the kids involved in making food too.
The other kids there are always lovely and Tracie does a great job of managing the interactions between the different age groups.
Tracie gives great handovers with just the level of detail you need. She's helped me think through many a parenting issue or behavior management challenge with really sensible advice.
Fundamentally, I couldn't recommend her enough. Thanks for everything Tracie!

Kitty only just noticed your review! Thanks so much and I must say it’s pretty easy too love such a lovely family and thankyou for choosing me to be part of your children’s lives 🥰
Tracie is absolutely fantastic!! We couldn’t ask for more. She is like family now, our little boy loves going to hers so much and the feeling is genuinely reciprocated! She always opens the door with a huge smile and is just really fun and enjoys spending time with the children. She plans really exciting and creative activities tailored to the children’s preferences and which really support their development. Our son has come on leaps and bounds since starting with her and we are so grateful. She cooks a range of healthy balanced meals that our son loves to eat. She also promotes a love of reading and her daily feedback is detailed and thoughtful. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough and wish he could stay there until he leaves home!

Lucy Thankyou for such a lovely review
I’m the lucky one getting to be a part of your little ones life what a little star he is feel like I’ve always known you 🥰
Tracie is a fantastic childminder. She has looked after my two children since they were 1 (they are now 8 and 11!). She is warm, friendly and great fun and the kids love her. Tracie has looked after my children as if they were her own and I am so grateful to her for providing such a warm and safe second home for my kids while I am out at work. Tracie also has great knowledge of early years education and provides very engaging activities for preschoolers. I cannot recommend Tracie highly enough.

Thank you Nat it has been an amazing journey looking after your children I never want it too end !
My daughter has been with Tracie for over 3 years now and absolutely adores her. It is easy to see why, Tracie is brilliant with children of all ages. She’s fun, interactive, caring and patient. She had a genuine love of children and a commitment to providing a high standard of childcare. All of this whilst providing a safe and secure child-centred physical environment means as a parent you can rest easy knowing your child or children will be happy and in very safe hands.
