Outstanding childminder!

5 stars

I couldn't recommend Rainbow Rascals enough!

My little boy has Williams Syndrome and Sandra has gone above and beyond to not only help accommodate his needs but also helping me with his physio and spreading awareness of such a rare syndrome.

He goes 5 days a week and comes out with a smile every single day. The daily pictures from Sandra shows just how happy the children are with her and the variety of activities they get up to.

It has made the transition going back to work a lot easier knowing he is cared for, happy and being supported.

My little boy reaches put for Sandra whenever he sees or even hears her!

Thank you so much for everything Rainbow Rascals 🌈🧡
