My Summary
About Me
Hello- I’m Rachel . I have always wanted to work with children so as soon as I left school at 16 I did my NNEB training for 2 years and got a diploma in nursery nursing , which I achieved in 1992, and have since worked in nurserys and schools . Once I fell pregnant with my first child in 1999 , I then became a registered childminder, having the best of both worlds, being at home with my children and looking after others, as my job. I also am a qualified first aider, and have participated in other courses .
I am ofsted registered with a good rating for many years now. I also have dbs for you to view and many references from the parents with the child care I provide .
Our day consists of outside play , garden play , going for walks , visiting parks and farms . We go to group clubs and meet up with other childminders . We have lots of fun with messy play and lots of different toys to provide development in all areas. My aim as always is to provide a very safe and fun loving environment .
If you are interested feel free to txt or call me.
Many thanks
Rachel :)

Rachel has been wonderful for us.
My daughter Phoebe wouldn’t go to a nanny nor to anyone she was unfamiliar with, however with Rachel’s kind, bubbly and fun personality Phoebe was won over straight away.
I always know my daughter is in good hands and is going to have a fun day at Rachel’s.
We are always kept in the loop with pictures and details of what fun activities she’s up to.
Highly recommended!

Rachel has been looking after my 4 yr old daughter for the last 4 months, Rachel is a lovely, bubbley, fun, caring professional lady, my daughter has settled down very well and very quickly which is all credit to Rachel, my daughter is always happy going off with her in the morning and is always saying how much she enjoys playing with her. I always feel confident that my daughter is well looked after, entertained and happy while in her care, I honestly couldn't recommend her enough
