Nikki Ann C

Professional and good communication

Nikki was kind and professional in her approach to babysitting for our 5month old. We were nervous about leaving her for the first time but Nikki put us at ease with her calm approach and we were reassured by her professional approach to explaining her experience and provision of relevant documentation.
Quick to reply to any messages and queries.

Thank you for taking the time to write me a review it’s really appreciated :)

Fantastic Nanny

I found Nikki on childcare.co.uk while I was looking for someone to look after my 9 month old daughter for a couple of hours everyday while I worked from home. I was really impressed with Nikki the first time we met as she came across as calm, composer and caring. She did a wonderful job looking after my little one who was teething and was going through really bad seperation anxiety. Nikki was very gentle in her ways and my daughter too to her really well by day 3. Would definitely recommend Nikki to anyone who is looking for a warm and trust worthy care provider for their children. Will definitely be using her services again !

Thank you Priyanka for your review I really appreciate it, your little one is lovely and it was a pleasure to look after her and I hope I get the opportunity to look after her again soon :)
Best wishes

Wonderful nanny, highly recommend

Nikki is fantastic. She helped us out when I was desperate due to being made redundant during my maternity leave and having to start working for myself.
She took on looking after my 5 month baby and continued to do so for a few months. She was very caring and loving, it’s not easy to leave your little baby with someone new but I was totally confident with her. We have since found someone who has given me more coverage in the week but I’m staying in touch with Nikki as she’s fab and would gladly be asking her to cover any days when our current provider is unavailable. Highly recommend!

Exceptional care, professional & Reliable

Nikki has looked after my children since 2016 from the age of 1 onwards and they are now 7 and 5. I cannot rely upon anyone else to look after my children. No one has been able to match Nikki in terms of the high standard of care that she has provided for the children. Throughout the years, she has engaged the children with interesting activities that are all age related. She has a very calm, polite and hands on approach when dealing with the boys. She is firm yet fair. As Nikki is very knowledgeable about the EYFS, the boys have learnt so much through play when they were younger. She has a very good understanding of health and safety as well as maintaining exceptional hygiene levels at all times.

As the children have got older, she has continued to keep the boys stimulated by making homework fun and interacting with them at all times. She always ensures that they are fed well and her hygiene levels are of a high standard. She provides a detailed report of the care she provides for the children.

Her own personal skills are that she is very organised in her approach and communicates extremely well with me as a parent. She has covered short and longer days for me when I am at work, school pick up and drop offs, proving she is responsible and reliable.

I could not have asked for a better support for me during my time at work. Thank You Nikki for everything, the boys are blessed to have such an amazing person to look after them in a safe and welcoming environment!

Thank you Mahvish for your lovely review, I am really happy to hear that you have been happy with my service over the last 5 years.
I hope that you will continue to use my service for many years to come :)

Nikki is THE BEST

I found Nikki on childcare.co.uk over two years ago, after looking for some time to find a highly qualified SEN nanny, who I could trust with my child so that I could:
A) run a business as a single mother
B) try and have a some kind of social life as a single mother!

To put it bluntly - I hit the jackpot with Nikki.

She is professional, respectful, thoughtful, caring, tidy, reliable and conscientious, and most of all, WONDERFUL with my son who had additional needs. He adores her ☺️.

I would absolutely recommend her to anyone considering hiring professional childcare, and have happily spoken to other mums and dads as a referee.

Please do not hesitate in contacting me should you ever need more information.

Let down

I was looking forward to meeting Nikki however when I tried to book a date several times she continued to let me down.

Sorry you feel this way but I told you that I am on holiday, I really think giving me a bad rating is a bit severe when I’ve never even met you or worked for you. I told you I couldn’t start until the second week in June until after my holiday. How have I let you down? I had every intention of contacting you when I returned from my holiday.
Good luck finding childcare
