Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Our girl has been with her for 4 months so far and she has adjusted brilliantly. Caroline fully prepares wonderful experiences and learning opportunities for the children in her care. She sends us regular pictures and updates and always strives to undertake our wishes.
We find that our daughter can be difficult to handle; however, Caroline uses years worth of knowledge and experience to ensure that her approach is tailored to each child and Harriet has settled in extremely well to say the least.
I would, without hesitation, recommend Rainbow Robbins as the perfect place for any child to be cared for, stimulated and nurtured.
Thank you so much for all you have done and all you will do for Harriet in the future!

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review!
It's such a pleasure to care for Harriet. She is always excited to take part in activities and will add in her own ideas, which inspires not just myself but the other children as well.
Caroline is not only a very professional childminder but also a lovely and caring person who pays attention to details and makes children in her care very happy. Our son is usually shy with others but Caroline made him come out of his shell in no time and he was so happy when we picked him up. I will never hesitate leaving my son with Caroline knowing he is in the best hands. Thank you Caroline!
