My daughter is cared for by Vicky 5 x a week before and after school. Vicky is honestly the most caring compassionate and fun loving childminder. My daughter feels safe, secure and cared for and truly loves and looks forward to her time with Vicky. My daughter is flourishing and has become much more confident since joining Vicky, this is invaluable as a parent !

I would highly recommend Vicki to anyone looking for a profesaional, caring and fun childminder. She is the best childcare provider we have used. My children are with Vicki 5 days a week and they always come out with a smile on their faces excited to tell me about their time spent with her. The care and attention she gives each child is second to none. My son has medical issues and allergies which Vicki has always taken seriously and has made us feel at ease (which wasn't an easy task after experiences with other local settings). With Vicki we know our children are safe and their needs are being met. They have grown in confidence since being in Vicki's care and I hope they can remain with her for many years.

Vicky is such caring & compassionate person; each child is special to her. My 8 yr old loves to spend time at her setting, never once have I had any difficulties getting her there. Vicky takes her time to understand each child’s needs & in that way Vicky supports us as parents/guardians. Any problems she’s a listening ear & has the ability to really understand any problems you may have. Those few minutes chatting; dropping/picking up my child has been so valuable to us as a family; Vicky is definitely my go to person over the years if any issues should arise; or just having a laugh at the end of the day. When I say she’s the “BEST” Vicky really is.

Vicki looked after my daughter a couple of years ago and I knew when I got pregnant with my son I wouldn't want anyone else other than Vicki to look after him too. She is one of a kind. She is amazing with the children, showing them so much love and attention. She's always taking the children out to various places to expand their learning and knowledge. Thank you so much for everything you do for my children Vicki!
