Rachel's Babies

So lovely to be back in Topsham again. Such a great place to work and feeling very blessed by all the lovely families I’ve worked for here over the last few years. Thank you to you all!

This is a brilliant little Doona buggy/car seat. It’s on wheels and goes into the car as a car seat. Baby can stay in this and when you get it out of the car it unfolds into a buggy. Wonderful idea. 🎀

In spite of the cold weather this is the blossom on our Apple tree this year hopefully it will be a good crop!

Such happy memories of my time with this beautiful baby girl last summer. Such a lovely family to be with. Thank you for inviting me to be with you.

Such beautiful flowers I was given on Mothering Sunday. The posie from St Mary’s Dunsford at their family service and the others from our lovely family. A huge thank you to you all, can never have too many flowers! So special to spend time with our daughters and some of our grandchildren….. lovely to see you all again xx

The first flowers in our garden this year. A sign of spring? Maybe! New life and so good to see. ❤️

Lovely walk along the seafront this morning with adorable new baby boy. I feel so blessed to do the job I do and look after so many gorgeous babies. So good to get new babies out in the fresh air as soon as you can even in the winter time. Thank you to all my lovely families who’ve had me to stay over the years,to help with their babies. ❤️ .com

St Mary’s church Chipping Norton on Christmas Day after a very special service - then a delicious Christmas dinner later on. Very special to be with some of our lovely family. A very happy Christmas to all our friends and family and sending lots of love.

Suddenly winter is here! What a surprise!

Such lovely memories of my time in London last week. A wonderful evening with Grandaughter going to see Hamilton. Thank you Hannah and Jessie for the wonderful birthday present. What an amazing show!

Such a lovely few days with this darling little baby boy. He is 3 months old and his mummy and daddy didn’t want him to have a dummy anymore as he was getting too reliant on it. So we removed it and gave him a soft cuddly and tied a muslin to the bars of his cot. He immediately took to both of these things and so quickly learnt to self settle. If you use a muslin as a cuddly do make sure you tie one end to the bars of baby’s cot so that he only has a small bit to cuddle.

Good afternoon spent in Clifton village with lovely client Bex Hargett and gorgeous baby Harry. Years since I’ve worked in Clifton and forgotten what a great place it is.

A very wet walk on Dartmoor with Hannah waddilove. We got soaked but Buddy loved it! Now in Bristol with lovely baby boy helping him to nap in the day.

The steps leading to Calvario chapel in Pollensa and the amazing views from the top. We so love this area in Majorca. What a wonderful holiday with family and such good weather too. We’ll be back again!

So wonderful to be back in Pollensa again having a great holiday. Wonderful weather, lots of swimming and lying in the sun!

Very happy day spent with friends with new baby in Bude a couple of weeks ago. Very special as I looked after the mummy when she was a baby! Thank you lovely family # # #. #

Having a good work day with Lucy Binns!But taking a break with the doggies! First meeting and they got on very well!

Newquay harbour in the rain today! Then lovely bowl of soup at the Fort before heading back to Penpol. Lovely couple of days with dear friends in south Cornwall in spite of the storms!

What a difference in the river levels in just a week. Even my Labrador who just lives to swim didn’t go in today!

And this was after I’d been able to speak about the lane to the full council meeting. Then presented our petition to cllr John Hart. Hopefully we will now have our lane resurfaced!

At county hall in Exeter this morning. Just about to present a petition from all of the households in our lane, to have our lane resurfaced. Hopefully the petition will make a difference!

A lovely walk last week from Holne to Sharrah pool with my dear sister and brother in law. It is the most lovely walk but not for the faint hearted especially in the heat we had last week! Sadly we didn’t swim when we got there, but the dogs did! ❤️

Happy birthday Jaynie can’t believe you’re 44 today and still gorgeous and such fun to be with! Thank you for being such a wonderful daughter. And two of our lovely granddaughters too so great you could be with us this weekend! # # #.

I’m fed up with waiting for my walkies! My lovely Labrador patiently waiting for me to take him to the river for his daily swim!

Such a very happy few days and hubby Daryn Beautiful baby girl doing so well. Missing you all loads # # #.

This beautiful little deer was waiting to say good morning outside my bedroom window yesterday. Lovely few days spent in Surrey with a delightful family with new baby girl. Such a precious little baby. I feel very privileged to work with such lovely families and their babies. Thank you for having me!

The lake this week. Such a lovely day with a friend walking round the gardens. Very peaceful and relaxing

Tea last week. What a wonderful treat and especially to meet up with one of my lovely families from Chicago. Haven’t seen them for 13 years! So very very special to have time together. Thank you so much. Hope it’s not so long till we meet again xx.
