My Summary
About Me
**I have spaces available **
Hi, my name is Rachael. I have an 14 year old daughter, and two older boys - I am a non-smoker.
I have a private and secluded astro-turfed garden. I also have a conservatory which is used as a play area.
I have completed my paediatric first aid, and have been CRB checked. I am Ofsted registered - graded 'good'.
My aim is to provide a fun, loving, and safe environment for all children in my care. I attend a range of toddler groups and arrange activities during the week. Activities include craft, cooking, singing & music sessions, story telling, messy hands sessions, outings, and much more.
I am able to do school drop-offs and pick-ups if required, but ideally this would be nearer to my address. The nearest schools to me are Hillingdon Primary and Highfield Primary.im collecting from Hillingdon primary from sept.
I am happy to have children after school if needed. I am very flexible with regards to my working hours. I also accept Childcare vouchers.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or if you require any further information. I hope to hear from you soon. :)

Racheal has been looking after my children since they started reception till the end of primary school.
I am so grateful for all her help, my kids absolutely love her. I know that my kids are well looked after and in safe environment when they are with Racheal. What's really important to me is the fact my autistic son has such a great relationship with her, she is practically like a second mum to him. She has so much patience for the kids and is a very caring person. We will all miss her badly once Primary school is over.

Rachael looked after my daughter for 3 years, she is very good with the children. Rachael did a variety of activities with my daughter and every special occasion like Easter, Xmas,
mothers day she made it special by getting my daughter make cards and gifts. Rachael is flexible and very accommodating.

Rachel was an amazing childminder she looked after both my children at different ages. She is a trusted and reliable childminder that's why I chose to go back after my many years. She really helped my children progress and be ready for school. My children would always come home with presents and little things she made with them during the day and my children always said how much fun they had with her. Would definitely recommend

My son was with Rachael for 3 years, I was so happy with her service and the care and attention she gave my little boy. I really enjoyed the Mother’s Day cards and other memorable things he made me while he was there.
Rachael played a big part in getting him ready for reception and he settled in so well.

Rachael looked after my child for just over 3 years. He absolutely loved his time there. I saw him reach out for Rachael every morning when he saw her on the doorstep with a huge smile on his face - which always left me able to go to work content knowing that he was very happy. Her premises are spotless, and there is so much for the children to do in the way of toys and garden play equipment. What I particularly loved about Rachael was the time she took to carry out activities and crafts with, not just my son, but all the children - and I always looked forward to seeing what my boy had made me at Easter, Christmas, Halloween times etc. I couldn't rate Rachael any higher. If I could give 10 stars I would! :)

Rachael is my daughters childminder. Rachael started looking after her in April when my daughter was 9 months and my daughter loves being with Rachael and her family.
My daughter settled in very quickly and loves the variety of activies she does with Rachael.
My little girls loves going to Rachaels which makes me feel so much better while I'm having to work.
