Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 9 reviews)

My daughter has been with Raquel for the last 2 years. In that time she has grown and learnt so much at this wonderful setting. Raquel is just brilliant with the children and always goes the extra mile in everything she does. She has been amazing teaching Tilly and building her fine motor skills. She was even amazing during potty training. I'm sure Tilly picked it up so quickly because of Raquels effort. Raquel always arranges lovely days out for the children and extra special days during Christmas etc. I especially love the little photo shoots she does during the terms. I will be so sad to see Tilly finish as she loves spending her time at Raquels. She has the best time and often asks when she is next going. Tilly is really going to miss Raquels and I will be eternally grateful for all the time she has spent here.

Thank you so much! It's been an absolute pleasure looking after tilly the past 2 years. To watch her grow in confidence and develope her beautiful personality has been brilliant. We will all miss her terribly. Wishing her all the best with her next step in nursery. She is going to make so many friends and absolutely love it.

Raquel is simply the very best childminder in the area! I wholeheartedly would recommend her to anyone, infact I recommended her to a friend who has since put not only one child but will be putting 2 children with her, which is testament to how incredible she is. There are no words to describe how amazing she is, she has 4 children of her own, so understands children both through her studies and being a mother herself and always puts the welfare of the children first. My little girl has had problems with asthma and some other respiratory issues, but Raquel is quick to spot signs, let's me know and takes really good care of her. My daughter has been with Raquel since she was around 6 months old, she took her first steps, tried her first foods and has been exposed to a variety of experiences that you simply wouldn't get in a nursery setting. Raquel loves taking the children out on fun adventures, learning is interactive and fun, my little girl always comes home full of exciting tales about her day. Raquel encourages independence and respect for one another, which has really moulded my daughter to be a very confident, outgoing and respectful character, which I really do feel has been influenced by Raquel and her childcare settings. If you are lucky enough to have Raquel look after your child, Raquel becomes an extension of your family, she is like a second mother and goes above and beyond not just for your child, but for you too, providing the most incredible support, I can't recommend her enough!

My heart! This is so beautiful. Thank you so much. 💓

Raquel has been amazing with my daughter, who she has looked after for over a year. My daughter has been welcomed into her setting and family and absolutely loves going there.
Raquel has helped with nappy training her, teaching her loads and building her confidence, and has offered guidance to me to in next steps, etc.
Apart from being a great childminder, she’s an amazing lady who always tries her best to help us with change of plans, situations, etc.
Definitely recommend ✅

Raquel is an absolute gift from god!

She has a way with my son the astounds me. She knows him inside and out, and brings out the best in him.

Raquel always goes above and beyond to accommodate my specific needs, without hesitation!

I can’t recommend her services enough. My only regret was not finding her sooner.

Thank you for all that you done for AJ Raquel, I am eternally indebted to you!

My daughter, Molly was 9 months old when we decided to take her to a childminder. I searched on this page and she was the very first one I found. Usually I look through all the recommendations but after reading her introduction I thought I shall look no further. I messaged her and in half an hour I’ve got response.
She helped me with literally everything. Being a first time mother she gave me the tools how to teach her for important matters. She walked by the age of 14 months, loves music, she is potty trained since she was about 24 months old, she counts to 10, knows all the colours, putting together sentences, and she’s not even 2 and a half. Molly loves Raquel so much, she calls her Mommy and I don’t mind at all, this means to me that she is in a good place when she’s at hers. Raquel takes them out to playgrounds, animal farms, at Christmas time to Santa’s grotto and the list is still going on. She is a genuinely lovely person, we are so happy and blessed having her in our lives. A truly God sent Angel, fully recommend.

Raquel has been looking after my little girl since she was 1 years old and she is fast approaching 4 now. Alice absolutely adores Raquel and her whole family! I can’t thank her enough for how much she has done for Alice, she has taught her soo much! Numbers, phonics and so much more, she always goes above and beyond. Trips to the beach, park ect it’s always a fun day with Raquel and her family. I feel so lucky that we found her, she really is the best! She is always flexible where she can be and helps out with extra days/hours if she can. 11 out of 10

My son has been going to Raquel’s since November 2018 and is treated as part of the family. He learns so much while there but also has so much fun and gets to go out to farms, parks, walks etc. Raquel’s whole family is so welcoming and I trust her 100% and never have to worry while he is there. I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be part of my sons life and so grateful I found her.

I can never thank Raquel enough for loving my baby, who is now a big and independent girl. Raquel looked after her for more than a year. Her whole family embraced her. My daughter always looked forward to going to Raquel's and I know she enjoyed every minute she was with her and the other kids.

Although I didn't really meet other childminders, I am pretty sure Raquel is the best one out there. She is loving, caring, fun, considerate and very flexible. She has a pure heart and she treated my daughter as her own. I'm so glad I met her and I know I couldn't have found a better childminder.

Raquel has been assisting me with my daughter who is now 5 years old. She has been looking after her for me for just under a year.

Raquel treats my daughter as her own and my child absolutely adores her! Raquel does my school pick ups, afternoon care, weekend care when needed and babysitting. She has become like my daughters second mother.

Our family adores Raquel. She is kind, patient, caring and dedicated to what she does. Her passion for children is evident from the moment you meet her.

As one of those very protective mothers I can highly recommend Raquel and can say that you will have absolute peace of mind when your children are in her care.
