Nicky looked after my children after school and they both loved being there. The childcare, activities and standard of care is exactly what I wanted. Nicky and Kelly are friendly, fair and approachable and I wholeheartedly recommend Nicky’s Childminding to everyone.

My son Freddie has been attending Nicky's since June 18 and I couldn't recommend her more. Nicky, Kelly and Sophie are amazing with the kids. Freddie is always happy to go and we never have any issues at the drop off. Since my first meeting with Nicky i have felt completely comfortable leaving Freddie there and never had any concerns while he is in her care.
My older son also attends Nicky's during the holidays and he loves going, she puts on lots of activities which are suitable for all ages.

Nicky has cared for my daughter since January 2017, when I was a first time Mum, nervous about returning to full time work and leaving my then 8 month old daughter. There was nothing to worry about! Nicky, Kelly and more recently Sophie are the most supportive, caring, patient and wonderful team! My daughter settled straight away and enjoys her time here completely. The mix of ages and activities offer a well balanced, well thought out and safe setting. Nicky puts a huge amount of effort and thought into her work and this is very evident. During the recent Covid situation, as a keyworker, Nicky has supported me by staying open and operating within national guidelines which is really reassuring. My daughter comes home worn out, covered in paint or whatever else they've been doing and loves chatting about her day so I couldn't ask for anything more. Thank you Nicky, Kelly and Sophie!
