Review from Loren R (Mother of Child) published on 15 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I've had three children attend this nursery. First starting in November 2020 and we love them to the point of house moves needing to be around the nursery because we don't want them anywhere else. When they say second to mum or home from home, they're not kidding. Even when my eldest gets things like awards at school, Rachael and her staff are top of his list of who he wants to brag to, my middle runs along happily chanting about how he wants to see certain staff members and Rachael's care doesn't stop at the kids, she's excellent for a natter and a rant at pick up/drop off.

The nursery is lovely, the price is arguably cheaper than it should be, and the bonds they build with the kids are second to none.

I couldn't recommend more and am forever grateful to the lovely ladies at Rachael's Rascals for the roles they've played in raising my three children for the last almost six years.

Overall Experience

I honestly cannot recommend Rachael's Rascals Nursery enough. My daughter started here when she was 2 years old, 5 years ago, and now my son started at just 5 months old and still attends now - he absolutely loves it.

Trusting someone with your children is one of the biggest things a parent can do, and I trust Rachael with all my heart. Every single time I've seen her, she is calm, caring, patient and genuinely happy around the children. She creates such a loving and safe environment and it really shows in how comfortable and excited the children are to attend.

The other staff including Kirsty, Ashleigh and the rest of the team are always so lovely, welcoming and supportive too. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they all truly care about the children like their own.

Both of my children have grown in confidence so much during their time there and I'm so grateful for everything the nursery has done for our family. Such an amazing nursery with the most wonderful staff - 5 stars just

Review from Louise B (Mother of Child) published on 12 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Rachael's Rascals has been a fantastic nursery for us - we were recommended it by a couple of people in the local area and would happily pass that recommendation on.
Rachael and all of her staff are wonderful - very friendly and caring. The nursery feels more informal and like a family than other places we visited. I also like that there's been times that my son has mixed more with other ages - he's loved spending time with older children and has picked up a lot from them.
The outside space is fantastic (it was a really positive for us when we chose Rachael's) and is well used.

Rachael's prices are very reasonable, with no hidden extras, and all the admin has always been really straightforward. The flexibility of the offering has been fantastic too, with them able to have our son for the exact hours we wanted over the week.

Overall Experience
My two children have been going to Rachael's rascals a while now, they learn and play and have really growth within their time at Rachael's rascals. All of the staff are fantastic and myself and my children feel so happy and at ease there.
All staff go above and beyond with the children and my children always tell me how great their day has been.

I love the artwork my children bring home and hearing about their day with all their friends at nursery.

Overall Experience

My little boy has been coming to Rachael's rascals for over a year now. He enjoys attending and has made lots of little friends. All the staff are lovely and are always there to help with any questions or queries you have. My little boy has come on leaps and bounds since he started in January 2025 and I can't thank Rachael enough for that. Rachael is so accommodating if I have meetings and need to change times and days on the odd occasion too. Which I'm forever grateful for.

Review from Jemma F (Mother of Child) published on 11 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We couldn't recommend this nursery enough. Both of our daughters have attended since they were 11 months old, starting in 2022, and we have always been so happy with the care and support they receive.
The staff are incredibly lovely and friendly, and they genuinely take the time to know each child individually. It really feels like a home from home, and our girls have always felt safe, secure, and happy there.
Their speech and development have come on so well during their time at the nursery, and we love seeing all the crafts, activities, and outdoor play they enjoy each day. The nursery also provides a great range of healthy meals, which our children really enjoy.
Communication is excellent, and staff always keep us fully up to date. They have also cared brilliantly for one of our daughters with an ongoing illness, always making sure we are informed and reassured.

A truly caring and welcoming nursery that we are so grateful to have found.

Overall Experience
We couldn't be happier with Rachael's Rascals Childcare. My little boy absolutely loves coming in every day and has come on so much since starting. Rachel and all the girls are fantastic. They always make my child feel safe, happy and excited to learn.

It's such a lovely feeling knowing your child is being looked after by people who genuinely care. The activities are brilliant, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff always go above and beyond. We're so grateful for everything they do and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Review from Ben B (Father of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son has been going to Rachel's Rascals since the age of 2. He is now 7 and still loves to go after school or during the school holidays.
The support and development which he received in the earlier years really helped develop his personal and social skills, as well as equip him ready for starting school which he has thrived at, which we believe was from the excellent early years development through the nursery.
He now attends the after-school club provided by Rachel and the team, he loves going to the club as he has friends which he spends time with whilst taking part in the structured activities and after school learning which is always made fun. He also receives a hot meal and snacks that he always enjoys.

I can't recommend Rachel's Rascals highly enough as a place entrusted to look after and care for your child.

Reply from Rachael Weldon, Nursery Manager at Rachael's Rascals Childcare

Thank you for a lovely review, its been a pleasure caring for your son from his first day at nursery to seeing him through his years at school. Thank you for trusting us to care for him, its lovely to know you feel safe and happy with the care we provide.

Review from Sonia C (Grandmother of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My granddaughter has attended Rachel's Rascals for approximately two years now. She absolutely loves the place. It doesn't matter who greets in the hall, she will run and wrap her arms around their legs and doesn't want to take the time to say goodbye. She is always given nutritious meals and snacks. Rachel's try to be accommodating if you need to change hours or days. Apart from lovely play rooms there is a safe outdoor play area that my granddaughter especially loves.

I would recommend Rachel's to any parents as a caring, fun, happy and safe place for children to be.

Review from E S (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

From the moment my little girl started this nursery she has loved every minute of it. The staff are amazing with her and it has a lovely homely feel. She is excited to go into nursery and it's hard to get her to leave. I wouldn't have her anywhere else. The nursery itself is very clean and tidy and there is so much for her to do and keep busy. The garden is big and spacious and the kids love being out there. I feel like I'm leaving her with family and I know she is safe there. We have all the information we need regarding food and nutrition and safeguarding etc, if there was anything we needed to know that we don't know, we just need to ask and the staff are so friendly they will help you with anything. The app is updated regularly and we can see what the kids are up to through the observations and photos. It's an amazing nursery and an amazing bunch of staff!

My daughter has come on significantly since attending Rachael's Rascals. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable about Early Years provision and have a wonderful relationship with my daughter. She is always happy to attend and you can see how comfortable she is in the nursery. They have also held events where parents can attend which have been great fun!

Overall Experience

My daughter is 2 and a half and has been at the nursery since she was 10 months. She likes going and has made friends there. She enjoys playing outdoors and getting creative with the paint and the play doh. The food is home made and is included as are consumables. The staff are very welcoming and nothing is a bother and have helped my daughter with her speech and toilet training.

Both my daughter and now son have and still do attend Rachael's Rascals. A brilliant nursery with amazing staff who have so much care for the children, they both have loved attending the nursery and both have came on leaps and bounds, I feel very happy leaving them with the fantastic staff and in very safe hands. A lovely nursery and setting, a place I've used for 7 years and I couldn't recommend this nursery enough.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been with Rachael and her team for around 3 years. Hands down the best nursery in our area. Rachael and her team have helped my daughter blossom in all aspects. The nursery keeps me informed of everything they do with my daughter, they have helped and gave us guidance from potty training to helping her talk and write. I think without her and her team, as parents we would be really lost without her.
