I always believe that somewhere up there angels are looking down on you and one day when my childminder gave her notice I was left to find a new childminder at a very short notice.

I contacted a few and all appeared to be running childminding as a business until I got a response from Nithiya. A blessing from above.

Myself (Father) and my little girl who was slightly over a year old at the time went to visit Nithiya and immediately my little girl on the first visit had connected with Nithiya which left me stunned.

Our experience has been nothing but positive - and my little girl made friends with Nithiya's little girl and this led to her developing her basic skills very quickly.

I wish every childminder was as caring, supportive and committed as Nithiya - she was there when we needed her the most and we will never forget her for what she did for us and how she made the experience so pleasant.

There is simply nothing I can criticise when it comes to Nithiya and we will miss her so much.
