Introduction
Tracy opened the Landbeach nursery in 2004 after childminding for the 2 years it took to get planning permission and build it. There are 3 base rooms for the different age groups and outside spaces which include an adventurous garden and the orchard. The orchard captures the essence of Beach Babies, there are apple and plum trees to climb, dens to build, a mud kitchen, various swings and a slackline, and of course a campfire area.
It really is the place where children are able to play together, developing their social and communication skills alongside their physical ones.

“We have total confidence and trust in the leadership at Beach Babies. We have close communication with Tracy and Carolyn throughout, especially so during the uncertain time with the first lockdown. They made us feel secure and did their very best to provide a very safe experience for the children and their families when they opened again.”
