Tricia has looked after my youngest son full time since he was 11 months old (he is now 4) and my eldest after school for 2 years and I couldn't ask for a better childminder.
Tricia takes a lot of pride in her work and is most caring and thoughtful person. My youngest has thrived in her care and loves going everyday. Tricia prepares a variety of activities and often has a theme of the week so whether it's art, crafts, baking, games or literacy, it will be based on this. Tricia is also part of a network of childminders who meet up each week so the children expand their social skills and are continually experiencing new environments and learning continually. She also takes them to forest school, music group, playgroups and visits lots of parks / playgrounds as well as helping those that are starting school get ready for their reception year.
Overall, I would without a doubt recommend Tricia if you are looking for childminder. My children absolutely adore her and her family and as a busy working Mum I would be lost without her. The amount of planning and thought that goes into all the activities she does with the children is outstanding and I can't thank her enough for all she has done for us.
