Cotton Socks's Reviews

Absolutely AMAZING!!

My 4year old and 1year old twins have been with Tracy since December, and settled in amazingly. Tracy and family are extremely welcoming and are fantastic with the children. The boys are well looked after and love all the homecooked meals that are made for them. We very highly recommend cotton socks!

Brilliant childminder

Tracy has been looking after my son since September and she is amazing. My little boy has really thrived since he began attending. Tracy provides a home from home setting with amazing home cooked meals and fun activities throughout the day. The outdoor space is wonderful with lots of fun and engaging activities to keep the little ones entertained. Tracy is so friendly and approachable, and I know my son is happy. Andy, Tracy's husband is amazing with the children, even teaching my son spanish! I would not hesitate to recommend cotton socks.

Home away from home!

Cotton socks really is outstanding! Our son has been with Tracy since he was one and is 5 this year! Tracy is such an amazing support and has helped our son develop so much! Everything from the activities they do, day trips , arts and crafts , home cooked meals and just a lovely supportive home! Andy even helped our son learn some Spanish! Tracy has been a great help also with things like supporting us on potty training and removing dummies and was great for advice and guidance! Our son loves all the family at cotton socks and we would be lost without them!

Brilliant🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

My son has been attending cotton socks full time for the last 6months, since he was 9 months old. I really couldn't have picked anyone better to look after him. My son is settled and loves going.
My son gets taken on day trips, play group, walks and parks. He enjoys Tracy home cooked meals and has plenty of fruits too. The outside facilities are brillant. Plenty of garden space to play with slides, bikes, water stations. Tracy home is always clean and tidy each morning (I really don't know how she does)
Tracy is very well organised and I have a daily journal of what my son has been upto and eaten that day. I recently had my son's check up with the health visitor and Tracy give me by son's file to show his developments and at what stage he was at, my health visitor was astonished to how much detail my childminder has gone to. Tracy is on top of her game, a fantastic childminder and passionate about all the children in her care. It gives me great peace of mind whilst I am at work that my son is being well looked after. It's a family business with Olivia her daughter and Andy her husband helping out both are amazing with the children. When I leave my son each morning it's like leaving him with family.

Amazing, friendly caring childminder.

Tracy currently looks after my two grandsons who are temporarily staying with me. The eldest grandson is 3 and has been going to Tracy’s since December 2018 (before he came to stay with me) and settled in brilliantly. When the boys came to stay with me I decided not to change childminders even though there are childminders closer to my home. But because my grandson was so settled and Tracy has worked so hard on helping his speech improve I wanted him to keep the special relationship they have. When the youngest grandson was 6 months old I needed to return to work and Tracy also now looks after them both and both love her to bits. It’s clear Tracy forms strong bonds with each child in her care. She’s been very flexible when I’ve needed to make changes to days and or hours and I personally can’t thank her enough.

Great outdoor space!

Tracy looked after my son for a few hours when i worked in her area. She was very professional. My son especially liked her garden with lots of toys & educational activities to do. Thanks again Tracy!

Very approachable and friendly

After having to change my childminder after my son had been with her for 2 and a half years, I was pretty apprehensive and worried about him taking to anyone else and being settled and happy.
I needn't have worried as it has been a very easy transition. Tracy is very friendly, approachable and caring and my son has really taken to her, couldn't recommend her enough, he loves being there which means I can relax at work with no worries. I work shifts and Tracy has been very flexible when discussing hours, especially since we needed to change them due to him being offered a pre-school place, bottom line, we couldn't be happier with the care she provides.
