What can we say about Vicky? She’s absolutely one in a million- our son loves seeing her and going to nursery! Since the day he started going he settled in so quickly because Vicky is just amazing. She makes you feel at ease leaving your little one knowing they’re going to have the best day. It now feels like she is part of our extended family and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. Our little boy loves seeing his friends and doing lots of things he wouldn’t normally do at home! The setting is lovely, very well organised and has a wonderful “home from home” feel. We cannot thank Vicky enough for the care, kindness and support she has shown us all as a family and the confidence she has given our little boy. He often asks when it is “Vicky day” because he loves going so much! Thank you Vicky for providing such a brilliant environment in which our son has developed, learnt and grown. You’re a star.
Freddie started with Vicky fully in June 2020 and we have been so pleased with the care he has. During this time, initially he was the only child in care and he was made to feel like one of the family. He settled in really well after a few sessions and now absolutely loves to go when I'm at work. I completely trust Vicky and feel totally happy to leave him. The setting is clean and there is so much for him to do, including a great outdoor play area. Vicky also does crafts and fun activities with him. He is well cared for and encouraged to eat well. He always comes out with a huge smile on his face. Everything is done with Freddie's best interests at heart. I would fully recommend Vicky as a childminder, as her care is 5 star. She is also chatty, friendly and very approachable and has coped extremely well during the pandemic.
Vicky has been looking after our daughter since January 2021. Our daughter was born in the 2020 pandemic and has not been able to mix with other adults or children so finding the right childcare for her when I went back to work was my top priority as she really struggles with separation anxiety! Oh how lucky do we feel that we have Vicky. She has helped us settle in our daughter and always kept in contact so we knew how she was doing. The set up she has is just amazing and we feel so lucky to be able to drop her off and for her to blow us a kiss and wave us off with smiles. We adore the family centred care Vicky provides and love how well our daughter has settled into a routine there. Our daughter really thinks that’s her second home and family and we feel so happy that she’s so happy, relaxed and now confident going there. I would highly recommend Vicky to anyone looking for childcare. The setting is outstanding, our daughter always comes back happy and smiley. The feedback and communication everyday is very personal and she captures the real personality of our daughter so well which always makes us feel so proud and happy and reassured that she really is enjoying her day at Kozykidz. We provide our own food but facilities are there so we can send her with hot or cold food and everything we send food in is always washed and sent back clean which is really nice and thoughtful. Thankyou to Vicky I’ve managed to settle back into my job in the NHS knowing my daughter is safe and happy.
My daughter joined Vicky and her team when she was 11 months old doing just 1 day a week. Vicky and her assistants were fantastic in settling my daughter and integrating her with the other children. They kept regular contact with me to keep me reassured and confident that Josie was happy and well looked after. Vicky and Anna are so friendly and caring; I would not leave her with anyone else! The children are looked after in a fantastic setting with access to a wonderful back garden and play area rivalling many nurseries that I have seen! They ensure children are constantly stimulated through a wide curriculum of activities such as trips and visits to places such as the butterfly farm. They are fantastic and I can't thank them enough for all their support and kindness.
Vicky has been looking after my son since he was 7 months old, he is now 20 months old. I fell in love with her beautiful setting and family since the first day I went round. She is so kind and truly adores the kids she takes care of! My son loves being there and is always so well taken care of. Some days he doesn't want to leave to come home, so to me that say sit all. Would highly highly recommend her :)

Clarice thank you for such lovely comments, you know your all part of one big family now.
Vicki looked after my son for 2.5 years from 6 months old. She had plenty of activities for the children at all ages and sometimes did day trips to the park and farm. My son enjoyed his time at Vicki's and I was always comfortable leaving him there and I knew he was being looked after. It was always easy to drop him off and pick him up from the back entrance, which is a bonus when you are rushing in the mornings to work and I was always kept well updated with his progress. She has a good play area in her garden which he enjoyed and plenty of toys and games to keep him entertained.
Vicky is a natural with children. My 1 year old went straight to her after not being happy held by anyone apart from me (and sometimes daddy). Vicky's children are gorgeous and loving and play with my little boy as if he was their own brother, and greet him at the door with smiles and tickles.
Vicky is happy to accommodate any of your wishes as a parent, regarding feeding, changing, sleep capping etc. Vicky has a garden with play equipment, that is within a cul-de-sac and away from traffic, and takes my little one to the playgroup and to the park when ever possible. She has a great sense of humour, is a lovely person, and is very in tune with my little one's every breath and I completely feel relaxed knowing that he is in her care
I had tried a few day care centers with my daughter and none seemed to make my daughter or I 100% happy until I found Vicki. She has a great set up at the bottom of her garden which is like a mini classroom full of lots of toys and activities for the children to do for all age groups as well as the fantastic outdoor area. I especially liked the fact that Vicki plans her days with the children and lets parents know what's going on throughout the week and spends the time to send you lovely photos with updates and progress on what your child is doing. Vicki also makes sure the children are taken out on fun and educational trips throughout the year which was another added bonus in my view. My daughter loved going to Vickis and even asked to go on her days off! And still asks to go to Vickis house. I particularly liked the fact that Vicki also pays a lot of time and effort making sure she knows your child very well before taking you on and makes transition very easy, making you feel your child is safe and secure and in a loving and a caring environment. I would definitely recommend Kozykidz Childcare.
Vicky has been looking after my two boys since my eldest was 1 and a half he is now 6 and my youngest since he was 1. My two boys love going to vickys. She always has fun activities to do, she helps with their development through play.She follows the early years development plans and always is able to show how my boys are doing. My eldest was a very shy boy but since going to vickys she has helped him become a confident boy who loves everything. My youngest has come on amazingly since starting with Vicky and I know he will be a confident boy too. She makes it very homely at the setting and makes the boys feel part of the family. My eldest, who is now in year 1 at school looks forward to going in the holidays. Both boys always have a smile on their faces when I take them to vickys and at pick up. Vicky is a wonderful, fun, caring person who is amazing with all children. I would highly recommend her to anyone anytime. I can't thank her enough for all she has done for my boys with their development and building their confidence to become amazing boys. Both my boys love her to bits.
