My Son has been looked after by Nicola since he was 14 months old in July 16 and we have followed her to the new house/setting and my baby will be joining her in June when I return to work.
From the moment we met Nicola I was comfortable and made to feel welcome she addressed my son first and I knew straight away that I wanted her to look after him and I had visited 4 Childminder’s before finding her.
My Son absolutely loves Nicola and her family and enjoys all the fun activities like groups, farm and zoo trips library visits etc that they do.
Nicola was a great support through potty training and transition into nursery school and also my son’s speech and understanding really developed with her.
He has thrived in her home environment more than i feel he would have in a nursery and his social skills are great.
Having Nicola looking after my children means I am confident and happy about leaving them with her when I return to work.
