My Summary
About Me
I live in Banbury with my partner Andy. We have two little girls, aged 12 and 13.
We are all COVID-19 vaccinated.
I am a qualified Nursery Nurse, and Ofsted registered childminder. I have a pediatric first aid certificate and a good knowledge of allergies due to my children having multiple allergies (now outgrown) and additional needs.
I also have a full clean driver's licence. My car is fitted with appropriate car seats. I have vacancies from 8-6 However I understand that juggling childcare and work can be difficult so these hours are flexible
I am based in Cherwell Heights, Banbury.
A typical day would be a structured activity in the morning, either one of the many toddler groups or music groups. Back for lunch, then sleep time for those that need it.Free play ( or outdoor play, chalking, drawing or arts in the garden if it is nice weather ) in the afternoon. Snack, play, or a walk to the park.Dinner around 4 for those that need it. This is to be brought by yourself. Healthy snacks will be offered throughout the day. ( fruit, breadsticks, yoghurt etc ).
I understand that as parents you want to be involved in all aspects of your child's care, so throughout the day, I will keep a diary of your child's day.

My little girl started with Nikki when she was 1 and after her first week, there is nowhere I would rather her spend her time.
I got positive energy and a positive atmosphere when I met Nikki and instantly I know she was the right person
She goes above and beyond to make sure my little girl has the best time when she is with her but is also no push over.
which is definitely needed now she is a determined little toddler.
I love getting the updates and pictures from her during the day and then hearing my little ones version of her day at pick up.
whenever we get in the car now she always asks if we’re going to “Kikki’s” (this is her name for her) and asks to see all of her friends that she has made. and will always run in when I do drop off and doesn’t want to ever leave when I pick up
If you are looking for a trustworthy, reliable childminder, Nikki is your person. She is everything I wanted and more. and me and my little girl couldn’t imagine our lives without her.

'I want to go to Nikki's', the words of my daughter as we get in the car on the morning run. Unfortunately this time we wasn't going to Nikki's sadly, we were going to nursery.
This is a small snippet of how much my daughter enjoys it there. I get updates daily of what she's been doing and a comprehensive handover at the end of the day. Nikki is friendly, polite and always has the children's needs at the forefront.
We are lucky enough to be able to continue with Nikki for longer than the interim time period we were planning. The only sad thing is, our 2x sons won't be able to attend due to such demand!

As a grandparent that lives that bit too far away to help with childcare on a regular basis, it is so reassuring to know that Nikki has my grandchildren when my daughter (or I) can’t.
Epitomising kind but firm, Nikki clearly cares deeply about every child in her care and does everything she can to make sure they have days that are as educational as they are fun, and it shows in their development.
While I love my grandchildren, they are both challenging at times. However, it never seems to phase Nikki. From the way she dealt with the eldest’s separation anxiety when he started with her – which not only helped him settle in quickly there but also set him up for dealing with new places and situations (and also made my daughter feel less stressed about leaving him) – to how she deals with episodes of over-tiredness and mini-meltdowns, Nikki’s calm nature and approach gives the children in her care the confidence to be themselves.
