About Me

Hi, my name is Rachael at Little Smiles Childminding. I am an Ofsted Registered Childminder based in Cuddington. I provide a caring, happy and fun home environment for your little ones to grow.

I have 3 amazing children, 2 boys aged 7 years and 5 years and my daughter who is aged 2. As a family we like to spend time outdoors.

Our days are filled with activities including attending playgroups, visiting parks, going on woodland walks, having fun in the garden, crafts, 'rhyme time' at the library, lots of reading and singing, role play, messy play and outings to various places such as Chester Zoo, Gro-zone, soft play centres, Delamere Forest and many more.

I provide healthy food choices including home cooked dinners packed with lots of vegetables.

I have a great space indoors and outdoors for learning and development and for having lots of fun. In the garden I have a swing and a climbing frame suitable for toddlers plus a mud kitchen for making mud pies. Indoors we have an open plan kitchen space with a play kitchen and lots of toys suitable for 0-5 years.

I will provide progress checks as part of your child's 'learning journey' in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).

You will also receive daily WhatsApp updates with pictures so you can see what they have been getting up to throughout the day. All activities are designed around your children's needs, taking into account age and ability.

My Experience

I have 7 years experience bringing up my 3 children as well as several years in the role of Chair for St John Sandiway Toddler Group. This has given me lots of experience with children and was the motivation behind me becoming a childminder.
