Rachel answered an ad for a SEND babysitter for us. She'd come to the interview fully prepared & watched several you tubes on my daughter's disability. It didn't phase her one bit! She is a regular sitter for us and my kids adore her. She is prepared, fun, professional and totally focussed on their (additional, medical, disability) needs. She's a lovely person totally trustworthy and we're lucky to have her in our lives xx

Thank u so much for the lovely review, I really appreciate you taking the time to do this
I love looking after your two, we do have a lot of fun together and I really appreciate how challenging it can be but I always feel confident that I can cope in any circumstances xx
My daughter has been with Rachel since she was 9months old. She is now 2.5yrs and absolutely adores her days with Rachel. Under Rachel's care she has become a confident happy little girl. Rachel has helped my daughter in so many ways, I cannot begin to describe. Through the activities, playgroups and unwavering support Rachel has helped develop her gross and fine motor skills, her emotions, speech and confidence.
Her homemade meals are healthy, varied and nutritious. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Rachel.

Aww thank u so much for the wonderful review, so very kind of you. I adore your little one and the time we have together! Watching her grow and help her develop is such a privilege xx
I happened to meet Rachael in the playground as I was thinking of going back to work.
After observing the way all the children gravitated to her, I was so happy to learn she was a childminder.
All the kids just love her, even ones she doesn’t look after. It’s such a wonderful, trustworthy sign of a fantastic, nurturing person.
I felt really confident to leave my 9mth old baby with her and they have bonded so well and very quickly.
My daughter is super happy and settled with Rachael and loves going there.
Rachael is always upbeat and cheerful and takes the children out and about daily.
I believe she gives my daughter all the love she needs when I’m not there ❤️
And finally, she puts up with my dietary requests which is a big thing for me and I trust her implicitly.

Thank u for such a lovely review, we have lots of fun together, I love teaching her new things and helping her grow and thrive 🥰
Rachel is the most incredible childminder. The bond she has made with my son is just beyond wonderful to watch. I will be really sad to see him leave her to attend pre school in September as he’s been so happy with her. Even down to the smallest of things she’s taught him like putting his coat on. His speech has also come on leaps and bounds since being with Rachel. I cannot thank her enough for taking the best care of my son. He absolutely adores her. If your looking for a childminder in this area, look no further!

Thank u so much for such a lovely review, I absolutely adore your little man, we all do. he’s come on leaps and bounds since he started with me and we will b very sad to see him go but know he will have a blast at pre school and we will still see u guys many thanks xx
My 2 yr old loves Rachael and is always asking if it's time to go to her house or trying to call her on the phone! Rachael has infinite patience and sends me pictures of all their lovely games and trips, and I frequently get cards, drawings and presents they've made together.
I can't recommend Rachael highly enough. She's an amazing childminder and such a lovely person - we were originally only looking for short term childcare but our daughter has such a great time that we've continued.

Aww thank u so much, we do have a lot of fun together 🥰
Rachael has been looking after my 2 year old son for over a year now. He absolutely adores Rachael and her children and always looks forward to fun with them. When he first started he was very clingy and timid and wanted Rachael to cuddle him all the time. She was so patient and reassuring and now he strolls in and doesn’t even look back at me and is so confident.
Rachael always gives him great food and has fun activities and outings planned or when he’s been tired and needed extra sleeps she has gone with what he needs.
Can thoroughly recommend Rachael to anyone looking for a childminder.

Thank u lovely I have loved having your girls for the past 4 years! My very first childminding family! Xx
Rachael has been looking after my two daughters (aged 8 and 6) three days a week after school since October 2016.
The girls get on very well with Rachael, and having been with other childminders, declared she is 'the best childminder ever'. They both love going to her house and it is always a struggle to get them to go home. Rachael provides a variety of home-cooked meals with dessert every evening which the children enjoy, as well as an after school snack on the way home. She does lots of art and craft and seasonal projects with them, the most recent was a Chinese dragon for new year. She communicates very well regarding how they are and if there are any problems, as well as sharing pictures of messy play and fun in the park. Overall, I am delighted with Rachael's standard of care and feel confident the girls are happy and well cared for when they are with her.

Many thanks for taking the time to write your review I love looking after your two,we have lots of fun together xxx
My daughter was looked after by Rachael from the age of 9 months through to 2 years, for three days a week. We only moved her to a nursery closer to where we lived, otherwise my daughter would have stayed with Rachael.
Rachael was fantastic with my daughter - she was great with baby led weaning and took her to local play groups - lots of one to one play and letting my daughter explore through this. My daughter didn't want to come home each day as she was having so much fun! Rachael's facilities at home are great, plenty of toys to play with, good one to one educational learning - numbers and letter of the alphabet - great outdoor space and sand pit too. Rachael cooks everything from scratch and my daughter loved the variety from casseroles to risottos. I was really impressed by Rachael, she made it so easy for me to leave my daughter, knowing my daughter would be in safe hands - Rachael is very caring and knowledgeable about children after her many years as a nanny and childminder. I couldn't recommend her enough to other parents!
