We have been with Nicki’s for a year since moving to Kidbrooke and I am so glad we found her. My son is 2 now and has come on so much. She is kind, caring and makes everything easy and relaxed. It’s such a relief knowing my son loves spending time there!!

Nicki also keeps us updated and is always flexible and understanding. He has learned so much with her and we could not ask for a better childminder.

Nicki is nothing less than amazing. My daughter adores her and always gets very excited when she knows she gets to go to Nicki. She looks after our daughter like her own and we love how happy she comes back. Most of the time she doesn’t want to come home.. Wish we knew of her earlier!

Well what can I say about Nicki, she is absolutely amazing with my little one who has been going to her since she was about 7 months old and is now 15 months old. My little one gets so excited when she hears Nicki’s voice at the door and that’s before she has even seen her. Nicki has a very warm and loving home from home setting and there is nothing that she wouldn’t do for any of her children in her care. My near 11 year old also goes there after school when I am working and is so sad that she only has a year left going to her. My youngest has come on leaps and bounds since going to Nicki’s as she is really encouraging with walking etc etc. I was so scared of doing the baby led weaning but Nicki gave me so many tips, advice and encouragement that within a couple months I was very confident in myself. Nicki does a whole bunch of activities with the children and I love when Hopencomes home with all her little crafts
