My daughter (Z) has been cared for by Nicky since she was around 10 months old till now (20 months) Quite quickly it was clear that Nicky and Z formed a close bond and I felt happy to leave Z with her from the beginning. I can tell that Z feels safe and happy to be left with Nicky and has positive associations around Nicky and her home.
Nicky has always been very communicative, mostly via whatsapp which suits me very well whilst at work, she sends lots of pictures and updates which I really appreciate.
Nicky goes out with the children nearly every day which I really like and feel she is getting a broad range of experiences outside and in different fun environments. Nicky also meets up regularly with other childminders and their children which again gives Z the experience of being in a larger group of mixed age children which I feel has been great for her development.
Nicky has made my transition from maternity leave into work very easy and I will be forever grateful for that as I know for lots of parents it can be a very difficult time. I have always felt very happy that Z is being well cared for and haven't felt anxious at all about leaving Z in her care. I completely trust that Nicky is providing Z with the care she needs, but also providing an enriching environment for her to thrive in.
