Our little one who hated her old nursery absolutely loves going to Tracy's. She has come on leaps and bounds in the last year. Her confidence and communication skills are now exceptional. I can't speak highly of Tracy's work, we're very grateful.

Thank you for your lovely review..
Our 2 year old son has been with Tracy since January and loves going to 'Tracy's house,' even asking to go on Mummy's day off! The experiences he has gained both indoors, outdoors and at various groups has enabled him to continue his developments, both socially and academically. After 1 week (3 days) being with Tracy, he was coming home telling us about his day, looking at pictures and telling us about the 'big fishes' and 'jump puddles.,' from his day. Cannot recommend Tracy more highly, thank you x

Thank you for your lovely comments. He has been a pleasure to look after from day 1 and always makes us smile. I am so glad he enjoys his days here and that he settled in so quickly x
We moved Harry from another local childminder due to not being happy with the service and it was honestly the best thing we ever done! We've gone from being worried about our son all day to being relaxed knowing he's happy and active. She's always taking him out to various parks and play groups and Harry just loves being there! He runs to the door every morning with a big smile! Lovely house and a lovely family. She truly treats Harry as one of her own and we couldn't imagine anyone else looking after him. Can't recommend enough and know we will continue to use her even if we have another.
