A warm, caring and exceptional childminder

As a first-time mum, I was so nervous about putting my son into childcare, but from our very first meeting with Nikki, she instantly put us at ease. She was so warm, welcoming, and genuine, and our son warmed to her straight away. She made us feel truly heard and honestly felt like someone we had known for years.

Nikki’s years of experience in childcare really shine through, alongside the fact that she is such an amazing mum herself. She has built such a wonderful setting with an experienced and caring team of assistants, all of whom are fantastic with the children.

My son settled in so well and absolutely thrived in Nikki’s care. It genuinely felt like we were leaving him with family every day. Nikki is incredibly patient, kind, and caring, and there was never a day where she didn’t greet us with a smile. It was so clear to see how much all the children adored her.

Our little one built such lovely bonds not only with the other children in her care. Even now, over two months since we left, he still talks about Nikki and his friends from her setting.

We were genuinely so sad to leave Nikki’s setting when we moved abroad, and she has honestly set such a high benchmark for us when it comes to childcare.

Thank you so much, Nikki, for everything. We will always be so grateful for the love and care you gave our little boy.
