My son Lucas spent 2.5 years with Nicola and Andrew and he absolutely loved it. He was so happy and I left him there knowing that he was being cared for in a wonderful setting.
Whenever I picked him up he was always beaming as he told me about all the fun things he had done and learnt that day.
Lucas' is now in school but I would not hesitate in recommending Contented Kids to anyone who is looking for a childminder in the local area.

We are almost 5 months into our Journey with Contented Kids and we could not be happier.
Our son its incredibly well looked after and is always happy when I pick him up.
Nicola and Andrew do a fantastic job with him and go the extra mile to help us out with his medical needs.

My daughter about to turn two, has just started childcare with Nicola and her husband. When we went to see the house my daughter walked straight in and started playing with toys, she never acts like this at a strangers house. We've since had two weeks of half day settling in sessions and she has loved them. When I turn up she greets me and then goes off to carry on playing. I have no qualms in recommending this fantastic childcare couple.

We are blessed to have a childminder like Nicola and Andrew. Having been in various nurseries across the country during early years, we found this friendly and caring childminder for our son. It is so convenient that they pick him up from birchgrove primary school (for last 3 years). My son really enjoys going to their house and feels at home. Being parents themselves, Nicola and Andrew are so caring, dedicated and clearly understand what we expect. They have a very flexible approach and can give a helping hand even in short notice which makes our life as a doctor-a lot more easier. I would certainly recommend them to my friends. Keep up the good work..you are always in our prayers.

I really cannot recommend contented kids childcare highly enough. Nicola and Andrew have looked after my daughter for the last 3 years. The experiences and nurturing she has in their care is second to none. Thanks to them I have watched my little girl develop into a confident and caring child. If you want childcare that is enthusiastic, inclusive, consistent, imaginative, and fun all set in a homely, clean environment with providers that are experienced, approachable, flexible and have a great sense of humour, then these are the childminders for you! Thanks both, you are fantastic at what you do, keep up the good work!!

We met Nicola and Andrew through friends who recommend us to them after struggling to get my daughter settled in a nursery, 2 nurseries later, we agreed a meeting and felt at home straight away! Nicola and Andrew took time to listen to our needs for our daughter to ensure she had the right care, you can tell they work well together and the children really enjoy their days. We were amazed at how quickly our girl settled in and Hermione - their daughter is all she talks about and how they are best friends! I always had doubts about a childminder as I wanted my daughter to have plenty of friends to play with, but with Nicola and Andrew working together, she's got plenty of friends to play with and also the one on one time she obviously needed to get settled and has totally flourished in their care.

Thank you so much

Nicola and Andrew have been caring for our little boy, who is now nearly 3 years old, for the past 2 years. He asks if he can visit almost every morning (including weekends!), and as a working mum, I have to say that it is such a comfort to know that he is happy while I am away.

This is in no small part to the time and energy that goes into making sure that the children feel at home, and that they receive plenty of individual attention. There is also home-cooked food, plenty of fun activities, a variety of outings, as well as plenty of time to play in the fantastic playroom and enclosed garden.

It isn't just the children who are well looked after - the parents are as well. As a previous reviewer has already mentioned, Nicola and Andrew send photos frequently and write in a diary every day. Catching up on my son's day is one of the highlights of mine. The flexibility that they offer is great too, with nothing ever seeming to be too much trouble.

So if you were to ask if I would recommend Nicola and Andrew... my answer is most definitely "yes".

Nichola and Andrew provided a caring, home setting for my son and he thrived in the happy environment and we as a family could not have been happier with our choice of childcare.

Highlights:
Flexibility
Caring environment
Lovely, healthy menu for the children
excellent learning environment

Thank you from the Watts!

Nicola and her family make my 2.5 year old feel completely at home. Lovely family home and fantastic child friendly garden. My daughter always has healthy and varied home cooked food and does a wide variety of fun and educational activities every day.

They take the kids on trips around Cardiff on the buses and trains and always out at a park or garden when it's sunny. I have a hard time trying to drag my daughter away at the end of the day.

I get a diary at the end of the day to let me know what my daughter has been up to, eaten, potty activity, naps etc. I also get txt updates and pictures throughout the day especially if my little girl is a bit out of sorts.

Nicola is always very accommodating with any changing needs and can even pick up from a local nursery too.
