Nikki

Couldn’t have wished for a better childminder.

My daughter joined Nikki’s childcare setting in April 2022 (aged 2) and left August 2024 to start school. She attended 3 days per week and absolutely thrived with Nikki, she will miss her very much. I personally couldn’t have wished for a better setting and care giver for my daughter, she was never bored with Nikki.. constant days out, trips to toddler groups, parks, museums, soft play, farms etc etc the list goes on.
My daughter was more than prepared for school in September thanks to Nikki. The amount she has learned and how much her confidence has grown in the 2.5 years with Nikki is amazing!
I trust Nikki completely and hope that my youngest daughter (started with Nikki September 2024) advances and blossoms just as much. When thinking about a childcare provider for this child, there was not even a second thought that she would also attend Nikki’s Childminding. I look forward to a few more years of having a child well cared for by Nikki

Outstanding childminder

Nikki started caring for our daughter in September 2021.
She remained at Nikki's until this September when she started school.
Nikki is an absolute credit to her profession.
She is kind, compassionate, and thrives on ensuring the children she cares for are happy and fulfilled whilst in her care. From trips the playgrounds, parks, farms and beaches to days playing at the summer house. Our daughter has always been happy to go to Nikki's and has made firm friendhips and foundations in her learning that have set her up perfectly for school.
We were so fortunate to have Nikki in our lives for 2 years and miss her immensely. She makes the lives of a working family just that bit easier knowing that she loves the children like her own.

Amazing Childminder!

I really struggled to find the right childminder for my son who was 1 and a half at the time, until we found Nikki! When going to visit her straight away I could see how professional and caring she is. She made my son feel comfortable and made the transition easy for us all as a family. My son stayed with her until he started school this September. He has thrived so much being with her, he has successfully learned above and beyond what he needed before starting school. He has loved being with Nikki and will always tell us how much he loves her. My husband and I are key workers and During COVID Nikki made sure that she was able to facilitate our working schedules and have our son so we could both still go to work, this took so much pressure off of us during an already worrying time. Over all I couldn’t recommend Nikki and her setting enough, if you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact her!

Exceptional Childcare Provision

We found Nikki for our then 2 year old when we moved to Kent a few years ago. How lucky we were! Nikki is kind, friendly, creative and highly professional. Our son adored his time with her, there was always something new and exciting to discover with fun and creative activities everyday. When the weather was good Nikki made sure she took the kids outside and they had numerous adventures and fun filled days out.

Nikki is a great communicator and manages the health and safety of the kids like the true professional she is. There was never a moment that I questioned our sons safety when he was in Nikki’s care.

Nikki has a lovely big playhouse for all of the children in her care and a super garden. No risk of anyone being bored with so much to do, learn and explore.

Our son left just before joining school but still talks about Nikki and his time with her. Nikki is quite simply fantastic and we’ll always be so thankful for the excellent care she provided our son.

Superb Childminder

Nikki has cared for two of my boys over a period of some years. Both of them absolutely loved staying at Nikki’s and were very happy and relaxed when collected.
She is an extremely committed professional, always giving children her full attention during sessions. At the same time she's able to talk easily to the parents and pass on anything she knows with interest or concerns 🙂

I really love Nikki’s childminding services!
I must say she was the best thing that ever happened to us!

Overall, a really impressive childminder and I would really recommend Nikki to everyone!
