About Me
Hi, Im Nicola, an Ofsted registered childminder of now, 18 years.
I live in Brigg with my four children whom the two eldest are both registered assistants and the younger two enjoy joining in the fun with children which attend the setting.
We offer a home from home environment which children thrive with love, support and craziness.
My Experience
I have been childminding now for 19 years and along with raising my own four children I have also supported the two girls dance schools over the past 18 years by volunteering as a chaperone. I assisted in supporting children from the ages of 3 to 18 backstage in dance shows. This can be very fast paced and highly stressful in which my experience of a childminder has enabled me in this additional and voluntary role as a chaperone.
My Qualifications
I have all the necessary qualifications that I need to run my business and needed to keep your children safe.
I have just completed my Foundation degree in Early Years Learning and Development and my First Aid, Food Hygiene, Safeguarding, Public Liability and ICO are all updated at either 1, 2 or 3 year intervals.
I participate in courses on a regular basis to enhance my knowledge on a variety of topics which benefit the children in my setting.
I hold comprehensive policies and procedures which are all available to view.
I also offer 2, 3 & 4 year old funding.
My Availability
Due to personal experiences before my time as a childminder, I struggled finding suitable childcare for my firstborn. I made the decision when I chose this career to help and support parents in the stressful time of returning to work and attempt to make myself as available as possible when providing care. I am available to start from from 6.30 am to 6 pm but these hours are negotiable so I can provide care to suit your needs.
I am adaptable to help you work childcare around your hours of work and provide overnight care and work weekends on occasion by request.
I offer overnight care if required for children already in my care.

I recommend Nicola 100% and more. Not going to lie I was so nervous about putting my 8 month old into childcare BUT I literally had no need to worry not even in the slightest!
My boy was super happy going every morning and every evening he was never even bothered I was there as he was so content with his favourite people.
A lovely friendly family who care so much about the children in their care.
I would still be using Nicola now if I wasn’t on Mat Leave. But I cannot wait to bring my two babies to her!

My daughter has been at the setting for a year and she adores Nicola! Since she has been attending, her speech, knowledge of numbers, letters and colours and just the world in general is amazing. She comes home happy, well cared for and excited to go back the next day. I thoroughly recommend Nicola for anyone looking for a childminder xx
