JellyBea's Reviews

Family feeling

My 3 month old is about to start with Nikki. It may sound strange to write a review before she's been but I want to.
I have very high standards and I saw / spoke to a few child minders but none compared to Nikki.
She made sure she had time to spend with us, was so interested to listen to all our daft little stories and she was so organised. Some older children arrived while we were there and it was instantly clear that they considered Nikki's home as a second home.
Nowhere filled me with the same confidence and I'm looking forward to my daughter starting her time with Nikki with no reservations.

Absolutely amazing childminder x

If I could of given Nikki a 10 star review I would have. She has been the most fantastic childminder to my 2 children since April of this year. I needed her at very short notice and the hours that I needed were very awkward but Nikki bent over backwards to fit herself completely around myself, bearing in mind she is a mother herself. As a single mum I don't get a lot of help with the 3 children I have so I had such a high standard when I looked for a childminder that I honestly thought I wouldn't find someone, Nikki completely related to this and gave 2 hours each week before I committed to have my children, with me there watching and really made me feel 100% comfortable. Since my children have been with her they have learnt so much, my son now has confidence and is so much more open, his speech has improved Beyond recognition when he started he was very shy and barely spoke a word apart from at home. My little girl has learnt so much that when she starts nursery she will be so ahead, and that's made me feel reassured that I have help with them both and I'm not really alone. They both adore her and she goes above and beyond the low cost of her childcare because she genuinely cares for them both. I trust her with there lives, and that's a big thing for any parent. If your thinking about hiring a childminder please make sure you give her a shot, from parent to parent she is a wonderful person and amazing at her job, after even a small amount of time I don't class her as the lady who looks after my children, she is now a friend, who I hope will be a part of my children's lives for many many years xxx
