My Summary
About Me
Now accepting funding!
Currently not accepting any new children but waiting list is available
Hello parents/carers! Thank you for looking at my page. I have worked in early childhood education all my life and I am excited to announce that since opening up in 2021 I have now been inspected by Ofsted and given a grade of outstanding. In my setting I believe strongly in the power of child-led play and exploration I aim to guide children in their development by facilitating them with fun and safe environments/activities that reflect their own interests because children learn best when their own individual traits and curiosity is celebrated. We love to get messy, play hard and go on many outings. If you are interested in seeing if my home would be a good home away from home for you child please feel free to reach out.

My baby started at 8 months old. He has come on so much since starting with Trista and her daughter! He has become so confident around other children and is a master eater.

Good communication provided by the use of an app, always trying to find an alternative. Despite partially hard transition of my boys, i think they really progressed with their development. Overall very good experience as for the first childminder for my twins 😊

My daughter has been with Trista for some time now and I am absolutely delighted with her care from Trista.
Trista is very interactive with her and they always have a variety of fun activities each day.
Trista is very professional and uses an app to keep me updated on what my daughter has been doing during her time with her and what she has had for her dinner.
Trista offerd a home from home experience and her home has literally everything a child could want to keep them entertained!!
I would highly recommend Trista!
