What parents say
My son started at Rainbow Kids at 4 months old and he has been there for 18 months now. It is a real home away from home and he is very happy there. The teachers are all fantastic and extremely kind-hearted, caring ladies. I can rest assured that my son is safe and very well cared for while I am at work.
Our 6 month old daughter is enrolled at Rainbow Babies. We have been very impressed by the quality of care she receives. The owner and staff are attentive and very passionate about the kids, we are relaxed in knowing she is in good hands. Highly recommended.

We have both our children at Rainbow, our youngest from 4 months old and both couldn't be happier. I cannot recommend the school highly enough. The teachers are superb with all the little ones, not only those in their classes. All round the education, development, aftercare, facilities - everything is fantastic.
Rainbow babies is a fabulous school with lots of love given to the kids that attend. My little girl is very happy and I would recommend the Rainbow babies to any parent.
