About Tignesie Tots

Rachel Thomas

Tignesie Tots started life when Rachel Thomas spent a season in Tignes, mostly living and working in Lavachet.

She very much enjoyed working with some great families and some lovely children during the winter and was struck by how grateful the parents were to have found a childcare service that worked for them. With this in mind Rachel decided to set up Tignesie Tots in 2006 and had such a wonderful response that this year we now have more nannies to meet the demand.

Rachel Thomas (and Harry)

Rachel has had over 15 years experience since gaining her NNEB and in 2001 Rachel gained her Advanced Diploma in Childcare and Education, winning the college award for Outstanding Achievement in Community and Health in the process. She has worked with many private clients and nurseries, gaining a wealth of knowledge about what makes a stimulating, safe environment for children of all ages.

Rachel spent several years working with tour operators setting up crèches and clubs in such diverse environments as the French Alps and the Ionian Islands. After 4 years of managing a nursery in Fulham, London she splits her time between London in the summer and, of course, Tignes in the winter, with husband Matt and son Harry in tow.

Being a mum herself Rachel recognises the need for high quality childcare, personally interviewing her staff to ensure they have what it takes to meet the high standards.

Her first love remains working with children and caring for her son, followed closely by snowboarding and her husband.
