Rachel was very responsive from the start. My daughter started going the during the summer holidays and honestly Rachel is a life saver! I don't know what I would of done without her. It's a lovely setting with lots to do. They go on walks together, feed the donkeys and theres a great play area outside. Rachel would send me photos of my daughter having so much fun which was great. Very flexible too. We're looking forward to going again soon! Thank you x

thank you
your boys are a credit to you i also look forward to seeing them as they are 2 happy fun loving boys.
I have been in contact with Rachel to find childcare for my son although Rachel could not care for him due to his pet allergies. Rachel has been most helpful with my search a real valuable resource of knowledge relating to childcare in the area.
Thanks again.
