Toke my son to vickys when 6 months old for two months there he lreant alot how to engage with animals also there he lreant to sit up on his own was a nice place for him to be looked after. Hopefully as he gets older I can take him back to be looked after again.

I was recommend Vicky as a minder any day.
My son had an excellent time with her from aged: 7 months to 9 months. She knows about child safety and the Development of a child as well as she has experience from her own child.
Thank you Vicky
I will definitely use you again if needs be.

Vicky only child minded my son for a short period of time but in this time, my son gained so much confidence and every day would look forward to seeing vicky and Charlotte! I thank you so much & if I hadn’t of moved away from the area I sure would be back with my newest addition Baby Leo.

What I like most about Vicky and her setting is the homely setting and calm environment she provides. My little one settled in really quickly which was such a relieve. Even when my little one had her grumpy days Vicky was confident and calm which is really helpful for a first time mom.
Also Vicky is very understanding and will endeavour to meet your needs appropriately.

I loved the family feel at Vickys, Chloe did not get on in a nursery setting but at Vickys she settled really quickly and loved all the other family members around her too. She's grown in confidence in Vicky's setting and I thank Vicky for everything she's done for Chloe. Thank you!
