Hi, my name is Rachel and I have over 20 years experience working in childcare and education.

I live in Codsall with my husband Rob and two children, Reuben (age 11) and Amelia-Rose (age 2). We also have a pet dog called Ebony, she is a black Labrador with a very tame and calming nature who loves lots of fuss.

My home is smoke free and has a spacious child friendly garden for children to play and explore.

I am passionate about providing high quality childcare through knowledge and experience to support and nurture children in a rich play-base environment

I aim to provide a home from home learning environment in a warm, friendly setting for both children and their families. Children can enjoy real-life learning experiences such as cooking, gardening, and outings to the park and library as well as exploring the local community.
