After searching for the best childcare environment for my son and visiting 8 others childcare providers. I came across Rainbow childminders. My son was 9 months old at the time. It was therefore important for my husband and I that our son was placed within a happy, safe and caring environment to he began his early years journey.

I initially placed my son in a well known nursary chain which looked and seemed fantastic, however it became apparent very quickly that he was not happy there. He was visibly so miserable each time we collected him, that we knew this was not the right place for him.

Upon my son’s first meeting with Bal he took to her warm nature. He was made to feel very comfortable within the Rainbow childminders environment.

My son settled quickly and was much happier.

Bal and Gurdas are highly experienced and provides plenty of learning opportunities through various play activities. The environment is safe and interactive, they are friendly, caring and monitor children closely. They are both professional and provided feedback as requested, updates throughout the day; which i find reassuring to see along with a useful overview at the end of each day.

Bal provides nutritious balance meals
and monitors our son closely during mealtimes as he initially experienced some food allergies when he was younger.

She has also been reactive when my son has been unwell.


It is very difficult as a parents to feel you have made the correct decision for your child when looking for a trusted childcare provider, however choosing Rainbow childminders has been the best decision for our son’s care, I cannot recommend them highly enough. We feel very reassured our son is well looked after and he is developing extremely well under Rainbow childminders
