Parent Reviews
My daughter went to Ms. Rachel’s rugrats during a transition period between care. Ms. Rachel was kind, caring and very communicative. Her home was clean and well organized! It was tough to leave after a short period but will be using her again if needed!
Miss Rachel is sweet and kind! Her daycare space is always immaculate and she has always been awesome at communicating and gives updates on how our son is doing. She has lots of activities for the kids to do. Highly recommend!
Rachel has been watching my daughter since she was three months old. She is the first person I trusted to watch her. She is so loving, dependable, and has so much knowledge! Any family would be so lucky to have Rachel!
Miss Rachel's Rugrats has been an incredible, beyond-expectations find for our family (and I think it could be for your family too!) We started our 2-year-old & 6-month-old there just a couple months ago, but already they are so happy and comfortable there. The two year old literally told me last week that she hoped she was going to have a dream about "playing with Miss Rachel." My girls are excited to go to childcare every day, and in phenomenal moods when I pick them up. Moreover, as a parent, I feel so happy and at ease taking my kids here. She has been great with both of the girls, takes a lot of care and pride in making sure her home meets the highest standards for a child care center, and is very proactive keeping us up-to-date with how the girls are doing each day both at pick-up and with pictures and posts throughout the day. Not to mention, her house is set up as basically a kid paradise with safe play spaces, engaging toys, and all the best activities!
Rachel with Miss Rachel’s Rugrats has been caring for my daughter, Wren, since she was just 3 months old. From day one, she brought a mix of warmth, patience, and professionalism that gave me total peace of mind—something priceless when you’re doing this parenting journey solo. As a single mom, my schedule can be unpredictable, and Rachel has always met me with flexibility and zero judgment. She’s celebrated every milestone right alongside us—tummy time victories, first teeth, those wobbly first steps—and she somehow manages to make each moment both safe and magical. Wren absolutely lights up when she sees “Miss Rachel,” and their bond is as genuine as it gets. Rachel’s days are packed with songs, sensory play, stories, and movement, but what I value most is her heart. She treats Wren like family, keeps me updated with thoughtful notes and photos. Knowing my daughter is not only well-cared-for but truly loved has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and allowed me to focus on work and life with confidence.
