My Summary
About Me
**MONDAYS, TUESDAYS, WEDNESDAYS & THURSDAYS 8-4.30 for baby or toddler from SEPTEMBER**
Hours open 8am to 4.30. Mondays to Thursdays.
Hi, I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder in the Trafalgar area of West Horsham, offering a home-from-home, animal loving environment.
Married for 24years with our 4 children of 24, 23, 20 & 14 years.
Also have 2 very soft soppy Labradors.
During the week days, we visit various places, groups and other childminders. But we also like our time at home too, with books and toys. It is very relaxed here.
I do not use my car for childminding, as I believe we have enough places in Horsham, to enjoy.
We are outdoor people so our activities involve lots of fresh air plus walking the dogs, going to the rec & playing in the garden.We love mud and puddles and our local woods. And of course, the dogs need brushing & cuddling !
Ofsted Registered with full insurance. Flexible childcare in a family/animal home !
If you think you & your child would like to become part of our family, please get in touch as we'd love to hear from you.

We knew from our first meeting with Stacey that she would be perfect for our little one. She has a lovely, welcoming home and we were delighted that the family dogs were also a big part of day to day life at home.
Stacey was always reliable, consistent and flexible with our childcare needs which was appreciated beyond measure. Communication was excellent, she always kept us updated, providing pictures and a detailed handover at collection time. Our little one loved going to see her and we are only changing settings due to a change in work commitments and availability. Hopefully she will go back on an ad-hoc basis during half term holidays so it's not goodbye forever!
Thank you Stacey <3

Our son loved being at Stacey’s. They were having adventures everyday and lots of cuddles which my little boy loves. Could not recommend enough. Warm and family atmosphere with addition of being around animals which is always great for kids.

Stacey is an incredible childminder who I would thoroughly recommend to anyone. This was my first time leaving my son with anyone outside of the family which gave me so much anxiety especially as he had never been away from me before and has been known to be super clingy. From the moment I met Stacey I knew she would take such great care of my boy and she did not disappoint. I also loved the fact Stacey loves animals as much as our family and our son often used to list her family dog as the friends he has at Stacey’s house. He has grown in confidence so much with Stacey’s support. She is so kind and always kept me up to date of the adventures they were on and my son was always happy to go and see her and cried when it was time to say goodbye to Stacey which I think is the highest praise.

I was first attracted to Stacey’s profile because of her love of animals and because my daughter loves dogs, Stacey’s home looked like the perfect environment for her first childcare setting.
Being the first person that I had ever left my daughter with, Stacey always kept me up to date with regular photos and updates which really helped put my mind at ease.
My daughter absolutely loved going to Stacey’s and I always knew she was in such good hands and never had to worry about anything.
Stacey’s home is a welcoming and comfortable environment and she always treated my daughter like she was a part of the family! In a short time I noticed such a difference and confidence in our daughter and she was picking up new words which we hadn’t heard her say before which was great to see.
Our time with Stacey was only short because of a change in work commitments but I wouldn’t hesitate to go back to her if we needed childcare and would definitely recommend her to others!
Thank you, Stacey!

On meeting Stacey we felt welcomed in to her home, we saw some lovely interaction with the children and she was great with our daughter who was 10 months at the time. The home has a nice family feel with the dogs, Betsy and Bo who are great with the children, though they are not unsupervised. We have a dog and going to Stacey has helped our daughter to be more gentle with our dog.
Our daughter has been nurtured and cared for, she is a confident child but we feel that this environment has promoted this.
Stacey is wonderful, we would highly recommend her.
