My Summary
About Me
******Term time only, however I may be able to offer some holiday cover.
I am an experienced Ofsted registered childminder.
I have 2 grown up children of my own.
We live in Bromley, close to both Bromley North and Sundridge Park stations.
I run a busy setting and work with an assistant part of the week. We go on lots of outings to enrich our learning experiences of the world around us, as well as doing a variety of activities at home to encourage educational and developmental skills through play.
Although we are busy, we are still a home from home setting, where children are nurtured and cared for in the home environment. We provide home cooked meals and snacks, and each child has their own room/private space for naps.
We have an allotment close by, where we grow our own fruit, veg and flowers. The children love to be involved, they can dig, water, plant and get messy, whilst learning about being environmentally friendly.
We promote kindness, and good manners.
Please contact me for a visit.
I also own a childcare setting in bromley common, for children aged 2-5. Please contact me for more info

Tracey looked after our little girl from the age of 1-3. What can I say?! She is simply amazing! She is flexible, kind, understanding and makes the transition into childcare seamless. We were so sad to say goodbye when our daughter started Nursery school. However, in her time there, our little girl thrived. Tracey offers engaging trips, regular updates on WhatsApp and and a clear overview of what children will learn. Just fabulous!

Tracey is absolutely amazing. All three of my children have been looked after by her and I wouldn’t choose anyone else. My girls always looked forward to their days with Tracey and now they’ve left and are at school, my son who is now with Tracey, is the same. He loves his Tracey days. She’s so organised, excellent at communicating to parents and always has so many fun activities planned for the children. I’m amazed at how she fits it all in!
It took me a long time to choose the right childminder and I’m so glad I found Tracey. It’s like a home-from-home for my children and I would not want them to be with anyone else. An absolute gem and I couldn’t be happier.

We have 2 boys with Tracey 5 days a week, and we could not recommend her highly enough! Our oldest is now 2 and a half and our youngest is 1, and both have always loved it there. Everyday is varied, and they do all sorts of activities and trips. It’s also the perfect balance between a child minding setting, and a nursery. Tracey co owns the Wonder Years in Bromley which older children can go to as well, with Tracey doing all the transportation. Her assistants are all wonderful and friendly too, and they build great relationships with all of the kids. Our boys could not be happier with Tracey, which is all you want really. An absolute superstar. 10/10 wouldn’t be high enough!!

Tracey is lovely and we felt very comfortable leaving our 1 year old daughter with her at her home. She was always safe and enjoyed her time there and especially the meals and the trips out. Tracey is very friendly and approachable and always answers any questions we have. Her communication is excellent which is always a comfort when you’re away from your little one! Our daughter is now nearly 2.5 and goes to Tracey’s other setting as she likes the open space. Really happy to have found Tracey and her home as our first childminder :-)

Our daughter has been going to Tracey’s since she was a year old. I was very hesitant handing over as (because of Covid) she had rarely been apart from me, however Tracey was absolutely amazing and reassured me every step of the way in the early days. Now she’s been there for a year and a half and it really is the best decision we made! Tracey is lovely and caring and one of the reason I chose her is because I got such a lovely ‘mum’ vibe from her which is exactly what I wanted from my childminder.
Every day when we pick her up, my daughter talks about Tracey (and her two equally fantastic assistants) and all the great things they’ve done that day, whether that’s park or allotment visits, toddler groups or arts and crafts. This is also usually supported by lots of pictures on WhatsApp and notes in her contact book,
Tracey is also very flexible as whenever we’ve needed to change hours/days she’s always tried to be as accommodating as she can.
Will be very sad when we have to leave her next year!
