My daughter goes to little learners and she absolutely loves it there. She looks forward to going every week comes home talking about Tracy all the time. I was nervous for my daughter to go anywhere but I am glad we picked little learners. Tracy puts amazing effort and time in with the children. They are always busy and having so much fun. Regular picture and videos. Amazing place for my daughter. My daughter loves going and loves Tracy.

Aww thank you. That’s so lovely of you. She’s been an absolute pleasure to look after and brightens my days.
Our 2year old joined little learners at the start of this year, he has been there for just over 3 months now and his development since joining here has been phenomenal. Tracy is amazing with all the children, everything they do includes EYFS themed play and she naturally helps the children with development. It's obvious from the start that she genuinely cares about all the children in her setting and we immediately felt comfortable with her. Alex loves her and settled so quickly, he now looks forward to his visits and every week he learns something new.
I would 100% recommend this lady to anybody looking for great care for their children, we are so happy we found her!

Our 13-months daughter is with Tracy from about 2months and she adores her from the beggining. I know she never gets bored there. She has lot of attractions like soft play, dancing lessons, crafts, etc. I am pleased because our LG have contact with the other children. We are Polish so she is also learning English language from early years. Tracy try to send me pictures and videos regularly, she also put them on Facebook(with my permission). My LG always come back home so excited and happy and that makes us happy too. We are sure that we found perfect care for our baby. I highly reccomended Tracy for everybody!

My son is nearly 14months has been with Tracy at Little Learners for the last few months since I went back to work. Initially I was really worried because he was a very clingy mummy’s boy who wasn’t confident around strangers or other children but what a difference a few months has made! He absolutely adores Tracy and gets giddy as we walk down her drive because he knows he’s going to see her.
Tracy completes a diary for me everyday so I know where he’s been, what mood he’s been in, what he has/hasn’t eaten and I regularly get photo updates during the day which brightens up my day at the office!
I feel it’s very much a home from home evnviroment for my son, I know he’s not just a number at Tracy’s like he would be at a nursery, she really takes the time to get to know every child and all their little quirks so she knows instantly if he’s not quite himself and will quite happily give him a cuddle if he needs it.
His confidence and development has come on leaps and bounds in the short time he’s been with Tracy and he’s now a very happy cheeky little boy who enjoys interacting with other adults and children.
Knowing he’s so happy with Tracy has made having to go back to work a lot easier. Huge thank you Tracy x

Our 2 children (2 yo and 5 yo) loved spending time with Tracy and couldn’t wait to see her every Monday. She had them for a year and was very good at ensuring they had a fun day and catered to our needs but also added learning to the play.
I’d highly recommend Tracy to anyone looking for childcare. Knowing our children was with Tracy left us feeling confident in her care when we had to be at work.

Thank you. So glad your happy.
Tracy has been taking care of my son on a Tuesday for over a year now. Unfortunately this will soon come to an end because he will be starting school in September. He enjoys his time with Tracy enormously. She takes him to farms, day trips, shopping, music clubs, soft play areas, and all manner of out door activities. She has broadened the scope of his activities and he has benefited enormously from this.
From my point of view Tracy is always reliable, punctual and flexible.
We wish her luck with her future positions.

Thank you for leaving a review. I enjoyed my time so much with your sweet child. He will always have a special place in my heart. Quickest 18 months ever. Hope he's settling into school like.
Tracy has been with us since the new year and it couldn't have worked out better. The boys (age 9 and 5) adore her she is great with both of them. My little girl (8 months) is completely thriving and that is a lot thanks to Tracy. Tracy is brilliant with all three, I know when I go off to work they are undoubtedly in safe hands. All three of mine have very different needs and she takes it all in her stride. They are always out and about doing fun things. I would definitely recommend Tracy, we feel very lucky to have found her.

Thank you so much Samantha. I'm so glad your happy with the service I offer.
Tracy has been absolutely amazing with my 15 month old.
He has never been happy around other people unless I'm there, but he took to tracy straight away and he really came out of his shell with her.
I believe she has given him a confidence to be around others, and helped him develop and learn songs, numbers and colours.
She always takes him out on interesting trips, and if they are in the house she plays with him and gives him 110% attention, love and care.
She has also filled a diary out every day of his day which has been a pleasure to read, and been a comfort to me to know what he's been doing, eating and his mood etc.
Not only is she loving and compassionate but also very professional and goes the extra mile to be the best nanny possible.

Thank you so much. You've a special little man there. So sorry we didn't have longer together.
Really happy with the service provided by Tracy and the kids love her. She makes sure they get out on a daily basis and encourages them to develop, teaching them but in an enjoyable creative way. She had been a life saver in terms of having my sons bottles sterilised and ready for when we get home as well as both children bathed and ready for bed, making getting home from work far less stressful, not to mention the children's ironing and all our washing sorted. Would definitely recommend.

Thank you so much it was most definitely my pleasure. They are delightful and I enjoyed èvery min.
Tracy is our full time nanny for our boys and i don't know how i lived with out her before she is fantastic with my boys and they clearly adore her. Tracy has them in a brilliant routine which i struggled with she is also very organised right down to all the laundry and ironing being done as well as all harry's bottles being prepared for the day, she is also very flexible with me as i regularly ask her to come in early at short notice. Tracy has worked for us for 3 months now and in that time i have seen a brilliant improvement in both of my sons developments lewis is already speaking in full sentences at just 2 years old and harry is hitting all his milestones this was the main reason that we decided to employ Tracy as we knew from the start that our boys would have her undivided attention and one on one learning time having her look after our boys is the next best thing to me being at home and we couldn't ask for anything more than that.

Tracy was our full time temporary Nanny, for my 8 year old, 2 year old and 9 month old. The kids took to her straight away, and loved having her here. Our 2 year old would cry when she left for the day, and our 9 month loved the baby food she would make up for him.
I was worried about leaving my little boys on the run up to returning to work, I dont know why it was like she had been here for years straight away. The youngest boys were out at different toddler groups every day which meant they also got lots of interaction with other children.
Tracy is very organised and flexible and coming home from work was stress free and everything for the boys was taken care of meaning the time before bed could spent with them.
We will still be keeping in touch and will definitely continue to have Tracy for our babysitter :-)

My 9 year old son goes to Tracy before school every day and absolutely loves it!
He's always been quite shy but took an instant shine to Tracy and has settled straight away. His confidence is blooming and he runs down the path to get there on a morning.
I was nervous aboout using a child minder for the first time but after meeting Tracy over the holidays I felt confident leaving him with her and can head off to work in the morning knowing he's safe and well cared for.
Thanks Tracy!

I have a 3 year old and an 8 month old and had a hard time finding childcare and as i have always had my children with me i was very nervous about leaving them, i could not have picked a better person for the job, tracey made this really easy for me. Tracey is a lovely, caring woman, my children absolutly love her. She is always on time and has fit into our lives perfectly. My son loves going to her house and always says hes had a good time. I plan on using her until my children are both old enough not to need her anymore although im sure she will always be a part of their lives.

Tracey has been with us since the begining of this year as our fulltime live out nanny, she looks after my two scool age children and does the school runs, she also looks after my 2 year old twin boys full time taking them to play groups and keeping the occupied and educated with daily activities, tracy helps with the new born baby at the moment and will increase to full time when i return from maternity leave, I would reccomend tracy to any one looking for a reliable trustworthy and fun childcarer, my kids are always pleased to see tracy come in the morning and really enjoy there time with her, tracy has previously worked at short notice late evenings and weekends for me.aswell it is always handy to have last minute childcare options you can rely on.

I started using Tracy for my first child when I had to go back to work full time. She made the transition of going back to work so easy, she kept me informed of everything from moods to what had been eaten and where they'd been that day. When my second child came along I knew I wanted them both to be with Tracy.
It is clear to see that Tracy enjoys what she does, I wanted someone who would cuddle my child/ren if they fell or were upset and that's what you get with Tracy. I would go as far as saying she is the best childminder my kids have ever been with and were upset when she decided to go back to nannying. Should you change your mind Tracy please call me - we all miss you.

Omg I've got tears in my eyes. Thank you so much. It's been my pleasure looking after your beautiful girls. Miss you all very very much. Tracy xx
When I first met Tracy what I noticed immediately was her warm & loving nature towards the little girl she was minding that day - this was the main reason for making her my minder of choice. It is clear that this isnt simply a job for Tracy, but a real passion & pleasure.
My daughter Emily is now 5 months and has been having settling in hours with Tracy for the last couple months in preperation for me starting back at work, throughout this time Emily has been happy & relaxed with Tracy and I always receive a thorough update on the time together.
If you are looking for a home from home environment then Tracy is the minder for you.
Thank you Tracy, seeing Emily with you & the care you provide makes being apart from her bearable!

My ten month old daughter has been with Tracy full time for three weeks now. So far I am incredibly impressed and pleased with the care Tracy provides. My daughter comes home with a diary telling me what she has eaten, the times she has slept, how many dirty nappies, and the sort of mood she has been in! It's little things like this which sets Tracy ahead of the rest. My daughter is clealy happy and well looked after. Being a single mum, I need someone I can rely on and who has a level of flexability. I have this with Tracy - even enlisting her to do some evening baby sitting too! What can I say... Tracy - why didn't I use you sooner?!!!! Rebecca x
