We’ve been so happy with the care our child has received. Rachel is kind, reliable, and create such a safe and welcoming environment for our son. Our child has grown in confidence and always looks forward to spending time at Rachels house. I cant think of a better childminder for my first son and my new baby boy who would be joining soon.

I couldn’t be happier with the care my son receives. Rachel is incredibly kind, patient and always going above and beyond to make sure my son is happy, comfortable, and engaged.
What really stands out is the effort she puts into planning activities and days out that perfectly suit his interests and personality. Whether it’s creative play, outdoor adventures, or educational activities, she always finds thoughtful ways to keep him learning and having fun.
My son loves spending time with her, and it gives me complete peace of mind knowing he is in such a caring and supportive environment. I am so grateful for everything she does and would highly recommend her to any family looking for a trustworthy and dedicated childminder.

Rachel has been looking after my daughter since she was 9 months old, and I honestly couldn't praise her enough. She always goes above and beyond for my daughter and myself. She is always happy to help and amends her schedule if needed. My daughter really thrives here, and loves to tell me all the fun things she's done and learned whilst being with Rachel. She always updates me on my daughters progress and milestones and I love receiving photos and artwork from their day. Outstanding!

We couldn’t be happier with the care Rachael provides for our two girls. From the moment you walk into her warm and welcoming home, you can see how much love and effort she puts into creating a safe, happy environment for the children.

Rachael is incredibly friendly, kind, and caring, and she truly treats our children as though they were her own. Our girls absolutely adore her and are always excited to go after school, which says everything about how comfortable and happy they feel in her care.

She always keeps them engaged with plenty of fun activities, games, and creative things to do, and it’s lovely knowing they are enjoying themselves while being so well looked after. We feel completely at ease leaving our children with her and are so grateful for the care, patience, and genuine affection she shows them every day.

We would highly recommend Rachael to anyone looking for a trustworthy, nurturing, and wonderful childminder

Where can I start! I was introduced to Rachel by a friend so me and my son went to visit her home .. My son went in and absolutely settled in playing with the other children so was allowed to start his induction where he loved ..
from starting their 3 days a week his communication came on over the time spent .
Also he went exploring different adventures which he loved inside the house or to different places.
Rachel made sure they done activities at each celebration of the year like Christmas birthdays etc absolutely 5 start.
Rachel kept a daily dairy of each child to let the parent know what child has has to ●eat ●sleep ●where/what doing etc
I knew my son would be well looked after, she had all safeguarding measures in place. Even when my others had to pick him up we had a password in place.
Alex said he enjoyed going to the babas house playing with the jigsaw as she got all off them. love going to different places mainly the park

Rachel has been looking after my daughter since last September, when she was just 15 months old, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better. She is incredibly caring and always pays attention to the little things. She even picked up on my daughter having an ear infection, which shows how attentive and experienced she is.

She keeps us updated all the time, which gives us so much peace of mind. My daughter clearly enjoys her time there. They go to toddler groups and do activities that have really helped her confidence and development.

I’m very grateful for the care Rachel gives to my daughter. Highly recommended.

My son has been with Rachel since January 2024 after my friend recommended her. I was a little apprehensive at first as ive never really let him out my sight other than with family but on meeting Rachel, those worries instantly left and i can honestly say in the 8 months hes been with her he has come on leaps and bounds. Jacob has an autism diagnosis and can sometimes be a bit challenging, however Rachel has been ever so patient with him and giving him plenty encouragement and now hes such a social little butterfly. Always plenty for him to do whether it was in house or out in the community and he always came home happy. Rachel would also send updates during sessions just to keep us in the loop and it really put my mind at ease as I knew he was happy and being well looked after
I would highly recommend Rachel to anyone
Thank you very much Rachel for all you have done for Jacob xx

My daughter has been with Rachel since she was 1 year old and I can't express how grateful I am to have her in our lives. From the minute I visited Rachel I knew she would be perfect!
Her home is warm and welcoming and very accommodating to children of all ages, she provides fantastic learning experiences outside her home also, such as toddlers, soft plays, farms etc. But also takes note of my daughters interests and incorporates them into activities.
I can't belive how much my little girl has came on since being with her, Helaina has her struggles with communication and language and finds new things and change quite challenging and can be very hard work at times!
I can't thank Rachel enough for the care, support and the activities she does for her and most importantly how she includes and adapts to meet Helaina's needs. She goes to Rachels happy and she comes home happy - what more could a mama want! Things have been a little bit hectic with the birth of my 2nd daughter coming along and I honestly don't know what we would do without Rachel in our lives. She goes above and beyond and nothing is ever a problem, so if your looking for a childminder, I highly recommend Rachel!!

Rachel stepped in to look after my daughter when I returned from maternity leave at a very difficult time. I work in a hospital and went back at the start of the pandemic and lockdown. I was very anxious about leaving her at a very unsettling time but Rachel put my mind at ease from the start. From the first day, Rachel sends me lots of photos of what shes doing, whether it be indoor play or playing in the garden with the various garden and water toys. Her house is very welcoming and Rosie loves playing with the other children, including Rachel's daughter. We always feel like rosie has enjoyed her day with Rachel and is always tuckered out. Rachel now also has my son sometimes and helps out with school runs. Wouldn't be able to cope without her and highly recommend her.
