She has provided training and support to our local childminder networks and to many childminders personally, me included. Rachel has always been such a wonderful advocate for childminders, and this continues to be a strong feature in this brilliant book which highlights the challenges and experiences of many of us working to safeguard and protect children. The book recognises the real issues which are often difficult and hard to work around but Rachel acknowledges this and offers useful and helpful strategies for childminders to engage with and apply in practice. This book will be a real game changer. It simplifies a difficult subject; it reminds us of how vital our roles as childminders are when working with children and families and it challenges us to build upon what we already know and do.
