Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
30 November 2023
A welcoming environment and sound educational program characterize this childcare setting. Regular observations and assessments inform a curriculum that supports learning and development. Good behavior management and cooperation among mixed-age groups are notable strengths. Children engage in activities promoting turn-taking and sharing. While overall care is good, enhancing development for the youngest during mixed-age activities is an area for improvement.

Rachel is an amazing child minder. My son has been going to her now for just under a year and I was very sceptical about using a child minder at 1st but rachel has made the whole experience an easy pleasant 1. I original feared about my child bonding with another woman but I'm so glad he has. The bond he has with not just rachel but her family is lovely and makes drops offs so easy that I know he's going somewhere he enjoys being. He's had some lovely days out with her as well as time at her home. Could not recommend her enough.
