Where do I start - words can’t fully express how amazing Nita and Lou are. We are so grateful to have found such amazing childminders! Nita and Lou are incredibly nurturing, always going above and beyond to ensure our child feels loved and supported. They are kind, patient, and consistently accommodating, adapting to our family's needs with ease. Their thoughtful approach and dedication to providing a safe, fun, and enriching environment make us feel confident and reassured. Nita and Lou are wonderfully accommodating, especially during school holidays when they care for our daughter – they make those times special with fun activities and plenty of attention. Both of our children absolutely love going to Nita and Lou and we can tell how much they enjoy their time there. We feel completely reassured knowing they are in such capable, caring hands. We couldn't ask for better people to care for our children, and we wholeheartedly recommend both Nita and Lou to anyone looking for trustworthy and exceptional childminders.

Firstly, I would like to say how amazing Nita and Louise were when we’ve initially came to meet them. They made us feel so comfortable and were such open and approachable people. We had two sessions to help my little girl settling although this was hard to leave her as expected. We really did feel comfortable leaving our daughter here knowing that she was in safe and experienced hands..
Ever since we have been using them, we have been nothing but comfortable, Happy and relaxed knowing that she will be having the best day and is cared for to the standards that we care for her. It is so lovely to see all the pictures and videos that are taken throughout the day that we can logon to our portal and see how she is getting on. This is really reassuring and fill us with confidence so that we can enjoy our day and not be sat worried, our daughter has recently stopped crying or feeling a little sad when we drop her off at childcare and she now openly reaches her arms out to be taken. This is just shows itself how much she is enjoying it which fills us with such confidence that we picked the right childcare for our daughter to go to. We have seen a massive improvement in our daughter being comfortable in going and being around New/strange people as she was quite reserved initially. I really do think the interaction with both Nita and Louise and all the other children has really developed our girl in such a positive way.
If you are thinking of using Nita and Louise in the future, please go and speak to them and all the above you will be able to see for yourself☺️

Anita has looked after my daughter since she was 8 months old. From the get go I always felt confident my daughter was happy and well looked after. Anita provides a home from home environment and I have been extremely happy with the care she has received, and the progress she has made whilst in Anita’s care. Anita’s home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and my daughter has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care. Beyond all this, it is Anita’s warm and friendly which sets her apart. She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise.
Anita is a great communicator and has no trouble in gaining Emilia’s confidence and therefore encouraging good behaviour and kindness and compassion to others, both skills which are important to us at home.
I am confident that Anita can administer either first aid or medication following all the correct procedures. Overall I cannot recommend Anita’s childminding services enough!

From the moment our daughter, just 9 months old at the time, entered Anita's care, we knew we had found someone special. Anita exudes warmth and creates a nurturing environment that our daughter adores. Now nearing her fourth birthday, our daughter continues to flourish under Anita's guidance. Anita's dedication goes beyond basic childcare; from fun days out to developing our daughter's skills in her lovely home, she ensures each day is filled with new discoveries. Anita's professionalism, reliability, communication, kindness, and flexibility have eased many pressures of being a working parent. Knowing that our daughter is in Anita's safe hands brings us immense peace of mind. She embodies everything we could hope for in a childminder and has truly become an extension of our family. We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking exceptional care.

I was really anxious putting my little boy into child care when he was 7 months old, he has now been with Nita for 2 years and is thriving. Nita put us both at ease. She is so kind and patient with him. She knows him inside out which is a testament to how good she is as a childminder and what every parent wants for their child when they are looked after by someone else. He is always so happy to go and does lots of age appropriate activities throughout the day. Nita is reliable, punctual and thoughtful. She has really kind, intuitive and up to date methods that she uses with the children that we really like. We couldn’t recommend her more.

Anita has been apart of our lives since my son was 9 months old and he had a milk allergy, she was always great with his diet and careful with all foods around him. He is starting school in September and his baby brother will now go to her. To say that Anita is professional, approachable, kind, caring, helpful and respectful is an understatement. To me what makes Anita the best childminder is that she is a role model to my son and the smile on his face everyday when he gets home is priceless. He interacts with kids of all ages which i think helps him grow as a person in different ways, he plays in the park and gets to just be a boy and have fun, does activities and goes to different places all the time. Anita has become more of a friend and apart of our family and I couldn't imagine anyone else looking after my boys.

Anita has cared for my son aged 6 for two years after school, my younger son will be joining her in September when he starts school. Anita is everything you could hope for in a child minder. Professional, approachable, kind, caring, reliable, flexible, fun, trustworthy, I could go on and on. All the previous reviews are so true. My son has so much fun with her at the park and library. He is so well looked after, drinks, biscuits, spoilt!😆 I am so glad to have found her, if i'd had the confidence when I first needed childcare I would have sent my boys to her earlier. Oh she's good at helping you remember school events too!! Like a PA / child minder in one.

A highly reliable and kind individual, Anita is a genuinely lovely person and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her for our 2 boys. She is a positive role model who treats our boys with respect and patience. Our youngest was 6 months old when he started with Anita & our eldest, who had several allergies at the time, was 4 and nothing was too much trouble for Anita at all. Two years on, we feel the boys are in very safe hands when they are with her & they always come back happy and calm after a fun day out exploring, making and playing. She encourages children to be independent and look after each other and their environment. We can't recommend her highly enough.

Anita has looked after my 6yr old and 8 yr old for many years now. She is an amazing childminder. both my kids love being with her.
Anita has helped my children grow with confidence and gain social skills. She is always friendly, upbeat and has helped us out last minute many a time.
I would highly recommend her to everyone. Your child/children will be in very safe hands if you get Anita as your childminder.

Anita has looked after my son since he was 9 months old and she also looked after me in the beginning! When you first leave your child, it can be really tough and Anita was able to help me feel at ease.
Now my little one is nearly 4 and loves his days with Anita. He goes on the most wonderful and fun packed adventures (especially during the holidays) and has done a variety of activities with Anita and the gang.
I really like the way Anita talks to, listens to and generally interacts with her children and you can see she is respected back.
Happy to and highly recommend this outstanding human being to look after your most precious little people.

Anita has looked after my 3 boys since she started working as a child minder when my youngest was about 16 months old. He has always just waved me off when I have left him with Anita. Always happy to go and happy when I pick him up. He loves all the outside activities Anita gives him the opportunity to do. He is 3 now and has thrived going to Anita, with her positive influence he is always happy, very sociable and is so polite too. My other two boys aged 8 and 9 also love going to Anita for before and after school childcare. They used to go to a breakfast club and nagged me to go to Anita. So they do, and they love it and are so settled with her. They enjoy playing and creating before going to school with these opportunities Anita gives them. Anita always has by lively boys under control with her calm but assertive caring way, and they really enjoy going.
As well as the children enjoying going to Anita, I feel her warmth, welcoming, upbeat personality comforting. Making me feel at ease to leave my children with her. She is very adaptable in the way she cares for the children making it easy to approach her when I have asked her to drop the children off at my house or at a more convenient place for me. I strongly feel my children would not be half as happy or as safe with any one childcare provider.

My very clingy 1 year old could not love his days with Anita more. He happily goes with her (waving us goodbye) and I can relax at work knowing he is in very safe hands, having lots of fun. He even gets excited if we drive past her house. She is very flexible, understanding and cannot recommend her highly enough. We would be lost without her!

My two boys have been with Anita for over a year now. My youngest who came to Anita at the age of two frequently tells me how much he loves Nita! The first thing i remember when i met Anita was how welcoming and polite her children were towards my boys. Over the year they have built up great friendships with Anita and her children. She has a tremendous warmth towards all children in her care and the communication between herself and I has been exceptional. She will often txt me to remind me of a school disco or outings that I need to account for. My son is lactose intolerant and Anita has worked with me to make sure he was catered for. I have always felt reassured that my children are safe and having a good time. They explore places in and around York and always come back excited to tell me of the new adventures they have been up to. They have never had a bad day with Anita and I'm so pleased we found her to look after our children.

Anita is a great childminder for my two boys 4 1/2 and 3 1/2. They love going to Anita's which is always a great sign! They always tell me what a lovely time they have had. I would recommend Anita to any of my friends or family if they were ever in need of a great childminder. It's so lovely to know your kids are happy and being well looked after.
