When we agreed to meet Nicole for a walk around her setting, we knew we weren’t likely to go with a childminder as we had a nursery in mind, also Nicole was the other side of town for us.

After meeting with her for 45 minutes and being completely blown away by both her and her wonderful setting, we couldn’t imagine not going with her, cancelled all of our other viewings at other placements and agreed to start with her as soon as we could. Not only that, my son loved her so much after that first meeting, he cried leaving her as he wanted to stay there all day.

Nicole is friendly, caring, always in contact, so professional and most importantly she feels like an extension of our family. My son cannot wait to see her on his days with Nicole and doesn’t stop talking about her when he gets home. He truly loves her, we cannot thank her enough for all that she does for us.

She has been encouraging and supportive for our child and she is clearly passionate about creating a fun and very loving environment for the children under her care.

I cannot speak highly enough about our experience with her, well worth driving out of our way for.
