My Summary
About Me
Hi, thank you for viewing my profile. I live in Ashton, Bristol, BS3 with my husband, two children age 12 and 14 and our little fluffy dog Mia. I am a fully qualified Ofsted registered childminder with a love and energy for children of all ages. I work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I offer a fun home from home setting where we have a dedicated playroom, separate sleep rooms and a good sized garden with mud kitchen, water play and much more. We visit the woods, parks, soft play, music groups, library, local attractions and playgroups (all activities are included in the daily fee). I also hold a membership for Puxton Park and National Trust. We are usually out and about most mornings and then home for lunch followed by a rest and arts/crafts and free play in the afternoon. I try to follow as closely as possible a child’s routine they have at home. Please feel free to email or call me and discuss your childcare needs.
My Experience
I am 41 years old and have a Degree in Early Childhood Studies which I gained in 2008 from the University of Bristol. I have many years experience working with children in nurseries, schools, and voluntary work with children in care. I have also supported children on a one to one basis who have special educational needs. Most importantly I am a mum to two gentle, social, fun loving boys and this has given me a wealth of firsthand experience. Please contact me if you would like to discuss childcare.

Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Rachel. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Rachel looked after both our children (total of 4 years) and I would thoroughly recommend her. She is amazing with children, always giving lots of cuddles, and you can really tell that her mindees adore her. Rachel arranges lots of different outings and activities to keep them busy and always provided details and photos of what they had been up to.
