My 2 daughters have been going to Tracy every week for nearly 2 years now and I can't speak more highly of her.
It's such a weight off my busy and stressful working week knowing my girls are in safe, caring hands and having great fun!
Tracy is very flexible if I need additional childcare and the kids just love being with her, her little boy and the other children in her care. They are always out and about doing fun activities.
In summary if you're looking for childcare, Tracy offers a first class service ?

Communication
My son and daughter have both attended Tracy's Childminding Service and they both absolutely love her. The kids bonded with Tracy immediately and she is a fun and friendly carer. She does loads of activities with the kids from arts and crafts to baking and takes them on outings to parks and places like Deep Sea World.
She has a dedicated toy room where there is lots of space for the kids to play and she provides meals and snacks which are always healthy.
She always tells you at the end of the day what the kids have been doing and is great at communicating.
I would highly recommend Tracy's Childminding Service and wouldn't hesitate to send my kids back to her when I go back to work.

Overall
Both my children have attended Tracy's Childminding Service and I would highly recommend it.
Tracy is very personable and approachable and her house is an ideal setting for children. There are ample toys and activities for the children in both the living area and in the playroom along with outdoor trips to the park and local play centres amongst others. Tracy also has a sizeable garden with plenty of outdoor equipment for the children to use too.
The environment is very child friendly and meals and snacks are provided too which is fantastic.
I am currently on maternity leave and not requiring childcare however would not hesitate to use Tracys Childminding services again.
