My Summary
About Me
My name is Tracey, I live with my husband and two teenage daughters in Lawford.
I have a well equipped play area and a large enclosed garden as well as an enclosed offsite outdoor classroom where we love to dig, plant and explore :) I work with the children to promote healthy lifestyles via healthy snacks, meals and exercise.
I am registered with a childminder agency rather than ofsted as a personal choice, I am still inspected and regulated under the same framework, and I am still able to offer government funding, tax free childcare and all other voucher/funding schemes.
My Experience
I have a Level 3 Childcare qualification, Level 4 SENCo qualification, Designated Safeguarding Lead Certificate and a current Paediatric First Aid Certificate.
I offer experienced home from home childcare as an Early Years Educator, with the guidance of working within the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, aiding and supporting children through their development stages.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found Tracey for our daughter and could not have asked for a better experience. The setting is lovely and she settled in so quickly with both Tracey and the other children she already had there. Plenty of outdoor play including the fabulous special garden is exactly what she needed. I always felt that Tracey truly cared about her and all the children there and was truly invested in their growth and development. Tracey kept in good communication, and was as flexible as possible when we needed. Our daughter thrived here and we were all sad it had to come to an end when she started school! But she was brilliantly prepared for this start by going to Tracey and made a lovely group of friends that we still keep in touch with. I would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

My daughter joined Tracey's setting when she was 2.5yrs old.
Tracey made her feel very welcome and she has throughly enjoyed her time with Tracey and her friends. They are constantly busy going to local farms and zoo's, playing at the park and the special garden.
Tracey has everything to offer and makes everything fun yet educational. If you need a childminder this os the place for you.
Thanks for the memories you've made with her, they will be cherished for a long time.

Tracey is a fantastic child minder, and our family feel so lucky to have found her. She has shown she has the best interest of the child/children at heart. She went over and beyond for my youngest son and I will always be grateful.
My son loved it with her and frankly she is the best. Highly recommend.

Amazing lady. My daughter really thrived here. You can really tell this is not just a job for Tracey but she really truly cares for her children. Lots of tears on my daughter's last day! My daughter is missing her already!
She has a lovely garden, the children do a variety of activities there and day trips out and meet with other childminders so lots of opportunities to make friends. Parents are kept informed of what they've been doing with photos etc.
I cannot recommend highly ebough

I cannot recommend Tracey highly enough - she is very organised , caring and kind , providing a lovely home and lots of adventures out and about for my daughter and her little friends. When they're in they're doing such lovely educational activities and when they're out they're getting lots of fresh air, exercise, and adventure (e.g. At the local farms, playgrounds, zoo). Knowing how much attention and fun my daughter was having at Tracey's has made my days at work away from my daughter so much easier. I know my daughter couldn't be happier nor in safer hands. My daughter adores Tracey, her wonderful daughters, her two little dogs, and her home. It is the perfect away from home environment for any little person.

I have two children, a rising three year old boy and a ten year old girl; both of whom Tracey looks after and has done so for well over a year. Both children, despite the difference in age are always super excited to go to Tracey's house and play. My son particularly likes the garden and the creative, imaginative craft & educational activities Tracey plans with meticulous detail. Not only do all the children Tracey 'mind' get along well, her own two daughters play beautifully with all the children - making it a very nurturing environment. As a working mum I couldn't ask for my children to be looked after, loved and cared for any better.

Heading back to work after having my daughter was a very nerve wracking thing and find the right environment for her was my main priority. I didn't really know what to look for or expect with regards to childcare but I knew I would feel more comfortable the home environment. From the word go Tracey was warm and welcoming. Listened to all my concerns and reassured me that my daughters (in my eyes) difficult habits were of no problem.
2 years on and I could not be more sure that I made the right choice. DD is always excited to go to Tracey and egar to fill me in on her exacting day (should she be awake) when I return home.
Learning is fun. The activities keep her interested for long periods of time as well as teaching her things I wouldn't even think off. Tracey has always been more then happy to work with me on things we are struggling with at home and offers support and advise that is invaluable to me.
I never though I would go to work and not worry how my daughter was doing but being with Tracey is like being at her second home in fact sometimes I think she'd like it to be her first home.

Tracey has provided the most amazing care for our two children. They are always excited to go to Tracey's and I know they'll get fun days filled with great experiences. Tracey provides a great friendly warm welcome to the children, instantly making them feel at home. The experiences are very well balanced through play, education, socialising and expert 100% detailed care. As a full time working mum I could not ask for more, giving me piece of mind that my little ones are getting the care and attention they need. I cannot fault Tracey and the wonderful space she provides for the children.
