Tracey and her team have been, and still are, absolutely wonderful to my two boys. I'm genuinely so pleased I found the setting in 2016 and Tracey has offered fantastic care for both of my boys ever since.
The setting is a home from home, offering lots of different activities on a daily basis, from dress up to messy play. They go for walks, visit the local park and horses regularly.
There are daily updates and photos through a private Facebook group so you can see how much fun your little one has had that day.
Tracey actually picked up on some SEN issues our youngest son has, she has been extremely supportive with this (food alternatives, visual aids, helping with external organisations to support us further) and if it had not been for her expertise, this may not have been picked up until later.
Our children's last day with Tracy is fast approaching and we are so sad we won't have them in our lives, they have been a constant for all of us for the past 7 years.
I would highly recommend sending your child/ren here, you will receive the best support and your child will have the best time.

I have been amazed by the work that Tracey and her team do. The moment I met Tracey I felt so comfortable and so much warmth that as a first time mum I was able to leave my daughter in her care. They use a great app that they keep update throughout the day so you are fully updated with what they’ve been up to, how much milk she’s drank, how long she’s slept, pictures of what she’s been up to, what she’s had to eat and documented each nappy change. I found this great comfort that I was able to check this throughout the day whilst at work. Unfortunately my daughter is having to take a break at the moment due to the current circumstances but I hope she will be able to return shortly, there is nowhere else I wish for her to go!

Thank you so much Tracey for making me and Aubree feel so comfortable and confident!

Tracey cared for my daughter for over 5 years, from when she was a baby until after she started school.
Tracey is an exceptionally calm, organised and nurturing childminder. Her beautiful home is always spotlessly clean and tidy – even after a day of looking after a houseful of children. My daughter loves Tracey, Kim and Kylie, and was always happy and excited to visit them, and I was always happy to leave her, confident that she would be lovingly and meticulously cared for.
Tracey offers an interesting and varied range of activities and outings. My daughter especially enjoyed music, dancing and the trips to Jiggy Wrigglers and more recently the arts and crafts activities. When she was younger she loved the messy activities and playing in the garden.
My daughter has thrived under Tracey’s care and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a childminder.

My daughter was at a nursery to begin with and wasn't enjoying it so I decided to start looking for a Childminder. As soon as I walked in I instantly knew Tracey was the lady to look after my little girl. The setting was just like the nursery but on a smaller scale. The other children looked so happy and Tracey and her staff were so inviting. My daughter settled in so quickly and had a lovely bond with Tracey and her key person.
Tracey took my daughter swimming, bowling, parks and so many other places she wouldn't have had the chance to do in a nursery.
Tracey really cares about the children in her setting and they care about her too, my now 7 year old still talks about her time with Tracey!
