My elder son started going to Nina since we moved to Oxford in 2016 and when he was a year old and he was there until he was 4 years old and started school. Before coming to Nina my elder son was very quiet and finding it hard to settle with other kids is in the previous setting but since he has started with Nina he was very happy settled very well with all the kids. Nina and her lovely team engage very well with the son and looked after my son very well, they did various indoor and outdoor activities with my son and helped with my son's communication and socializing skills.
I have trusted Nina as a family member, she is very caring and my son was always happy to go to Nina.
Now my younger son has also been going to Nina since he was 6 months old, we have moved from oxford to Didcot but still, I prefer to send my son only to Nina as my younger son settled well in her setting and happy.
Nina has always kept me updated with the progress of my son's development and engages him with different activities which he enjoys. Nina has good childcare skills and looks after my son very well and knows what exactly they want and keeps parents updated with any changes or progress my son made.
Nina has been very friendly, reliable, trustworthy, and flexible and when I needed her help even at the last minute she would try her best to support.
my elder son loves to go to Nina when he gets term holidays as he always enjoys going to Nina & enjoyed her setting.
I would highly recommend Nina and as she & her team are brilliant support for my kids & family.
I would highly appreciate all the effort she has kept to transform her setting based on COVID guidelines and following the safety of children.
Many Thanks, Nina, her family & the lovely girls Lisa & Laura you are all the best Team.

Nina has been absolutely amazing with our daughter. We have been sending our little one to Nina s for the past 3 years and we are so sad now to have to leave for school. But the memories our daughter has made there will not be forgotten. Nina has been like a second mother to all the children there, she has made sure everyone feels included and made to feel loved. Every birthday, Christmas, Mother's / Father's day she has made sure children and parents alike feel special. The children there learn how to appreciate nature (a lot of flower / leaf picking and projects with dried leafes), they do cooking, learn to cross the road, go shopping ,read books, do art with ricyclables. There are so many activities organised for them, both indoors and outdoors. We send packed lunch but Nina does morning and afternoon snacks for the children which most times it's something they all prepare together. We have never had any issues there. Even with Covid, Nina has taken all the possible measures to make sure the children are safe to return. We always felt at ease knowing our daughter is well looked after and happy.

We had to move our little boy (then just 2) as the previous childminders were unable to manage normal toddler behaviour & didn't want him anymore. So we were anxious about finding a friendly & interesting place for him. The set up is great as it feels like a nursery with lots of outdoor space & so many toys. They do lots of activities from craft, turn taking games with other children & music. We are so grateful to Nina & co. He loves it there, they're very friendly & his speech has come on lots. Just wish he was there from the age of 1!
Cleanliness- full PPE used for drops & picks ups. Hand gel used pre & post entry.
Food- packed lunches from home.
Communication- daily feedback during pickups and photos/videos sent.

My daughter Ginette started going to Nina when she was only 4 months old and only left now and she is 4 years old.
I have trusted Nina like a second mum. She is very caring and positive and was a very good influence in Ginette’s life. I know she genuinely loved Ginette.
We moved home when Ginette was two and we looked for other childminders in the area but after 2 bad experiences we decided to take her back to Nina and drove back and forth for over 30mn a day. We knew Ginette was in good hands.
Ginette met her best friend at nina and she has always been so happy. Nina organises many stimulating activities indoor and outdoors. Ginette always comes back home with some sort of craft work and she is very proud of it.
During lockdown Ginette missed Nina a lot, always asking about her and now that she is no longer going she keeps asking me how often we can go and visit her.
Overall l have no idea how l would have done without Nina in the last four years.

My son has been going to Nina since he was 8 months old, he’s now 3 and I can honestly say In all that time he’s never cried at drop off time and is always excited and more then happy to go, even 2 years in! Nina offers so much more than you could imagine from a childminder as she has a very big playhouse built for the children which is basically like a lovely little nursery where the children play and learn and do all sorts of activities, I feel my son has the best of both worlds at Nina’s because she can provide a large nursery style setting but he gets one on one love and care that a childminder is able to offer as well, my son adores Nina. It will be a sad day when he goes to mainstream nursery!

The minute I took my son to visit Nina's house I could see how happy he was there and he cried when we took him away! Nina offers something so much better than other childminders as she has 2 childminders and 2 assistants so there are many children similar to a nursery but a while lot more toys!! My son absolutely loves them all and all the toys and hes always sk happy when I pick him up. I cant reccomend Nina highly enough.
