Rachael has been looking after my son for two years (he is now four). She is brilliant with him and he loves going to see her. She has also looked after my six year old in the school holidays.

Every day she has different activities planned always with learning in mind (mini bug hunts, catching rain in different sized containers, visiting an allotment to learn about vegetables). It always amazes me where she gets the ideas from.
She has been great at teaching him to count, learn phonics and write his name and he is always learning something new.
They regularly have trips to the park (playing tennis or football) or woods, and play centres,

She takes photos of them every day so you can see what they have been getting up to. It is really lovely seeing the pictures of him playing or making something and he like to see them too and tell me all about what he was doing.
Both Rachael and her husband are lovely and they are always willing to help out with any requests I have in regards to extra childcare hours. I would thoroughly recommend Rachael as a childminder.
