My Summary
About Me
I'm 34 years old, I live with my two children, an 12 year old boy and an 9 year old girl. I work closely with my assistant who has been with me for 4 years now and has previous experience of working in a nursery and as a nanny.
My Experience
I have the experience from my own two children. I have been a childminder since June 2019 and am thoroughly enjoying it, and so are my own children.
We like to spend time out in the garden playing and exploring, going for walks, jumping in puddles, visits to the library and toddler groups and activities that suit the ages of the children in our care. We've also recently started going to the country park every week for a "forest school" type experience, which the children are thoroughly enjoying! We help the children become school ready and follow their interests and needs.
We focus on the curiosity approach to learning, which is about creating invitations to play with natural resources and loose parts to let children use their imagination and be curious. We also take the hygge approach, which is all about being cosy, slowing down and taking in the moment.

I have a level 3 preparing to work in home-based childcare award with pacey.

My son has been with Tracey for 4 months now and we have no complaints! It’s such a lovely homely atmosphere and different rooms and garden for the children to explore. My son loves going there and we haven’t had any concerns about his care or wellbeing during this time. Would recommend!
