About Me

*** UPDATED- currently full ***

Learn through play home based childcare.

We offer small fun lessons including art, design, cookery, literacy, maths, and science. Even the tiny babies will come home with work they have done.

We understand that returning to work and the idea of arranging childcare can be a difficult and emotional decision, our aim is to make the transition for you all as easy as possible.

We do not take a deposit, we accept childcare vouchers, and we offer sibling discount.

To find out more information or to arrange a viewing please contact me

Many thanks

My daughter has been with Rachael for just over 8 months now and we couldnt be happier with our choice of childminder. She settled so quickly and her development has progressed hugely since attending 2 days a week. She always has a smile on her face when she knows it’s time to go to Rachaels. We love the crafts and gifts they make and come home with. I would highly recommend using Rachael. It is definitely like home from home.

My daughter has been with Rachel since she was 11 months old, and I will be very sad when she leaves for pre-school soon. She absolutely loves everyday she spends here and from the minute she started she has grown in confidence. I would 100% recommend Rachel to anyone looking in the area, my daughter comes away happy everyday and has learnt so much being here. It really is a home away from home!

I loved my girls going to Home from Home-the atmosphere they provide is loving, caring and I knew that they were in good hands while I was at work. The girls were, and still are, treated like a member of the family. Cuddles are given at every opportunity, they always came home smiling and laughing and had done a variety of activities. I went back to work fairly early and it felt reassuring to know that Kym is a qualified nurse. I would highly recommend you consider this as an option when returning to work if you are looking for that added personal touch that you may not get at large nurseries.
