Well where do I begin! After my son had his settling in period it was finally time for me to go back to work and although very anxious being a first time mum Nicola was a gem! She is very flexible and took excellent care of my son and having gone back to work when he was just 8 months I couldn't have asked for a better person! She goes that extra mile to make sure they are looked after and in good hands!The reassurance she gives is always what I needed leaving my son! She is a real natural and unfortunately due to being made redundant I had to leave! However we still keep in touch to this day and it's going to be hard to replace her once I do go back to work again! I also loved the portfolio/keepsake she made for my son when he left full of pictures and captions of all the fun times he had with her! :) xx

Not only did I have the pleasure to look after Keelys son I had to pleasure to work with a wonderful parent who I am now lucky enough to keep in contact with after working together. It is really unfortunate that I can not take Miller back on due to going on maternity leave in the next few months. Otherwise I would of loved to of had him back in my care. Thankfully I still get to see him from time to time when we meet up. Xx
I have just finished the settling in period with Nicola and my son and must say I am VERY pleased! Nicola has been very thorough about how she works, activities she does with the kids and I even went to one of the play groups with her which my son loved. She is very organised and has a lovely child friendly home. I feel very confident she will take good care of my son and look forward to him starting with her. Highly recommend! :)
