Below are the latest reviews for Rachael. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk members 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.
My daughter was with Rachael full time from the age of two until starting reception this year. Rachael provides a lovely caring and nurturing environment for the children she looks after, and Harriet has flourished with her, gaining in confidence and social and communication skills. Rachael provides a clear structure and routine, alongside lots of time for free play and creative activities, visits to clubs and groups, and outdoor trips.
I would highly recommend Rachael as a childcare provider.
