Beautiful outdoor setting, lots for the children to do, my little boy especially enjoyed the pig and chickens and digging in the muddy construction area. He didn't want to leave his visit and has been asking when he is going to his new nursery. We were both to feel very welcome and I know my little
boy can be himself there and is surrounded by wonderful staff.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We have been so pleased with this nursery since our daughter started 8 months ago. The staff are all so kind and I feel genuinely enjoy looking after her. They are always excited to see her, and always give really comprehensive updates at the end of the day. We love the updates and pictures on the app.
Whenever they call to give any updates, they are really reassuring. If I have ever booked her in for extra days, the staff always remember and will say they are looking forward to having her - sometimes I've even forgotten this!! She clearly loves the food they cook as eats it all - way more than home. I've also really liked the fact they really keep you updated about sleep, and will stick to your routines.
In terms of flexibility, the nursery has been brilliant at supporting additional ad hoc days when I've had other commitments come up. Honestly couldn't recommend more!
Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at Grosvenor House Day Nursery & Pre-schoolThank you so much for such a kind and detailed review. We're thrilled to hear how happy your daughter has been with us over the past 8 months and how supported and reassured you feel as a family. It's wonderful to know that our team's warmth, enthusiasm, and attention to detail has made such a positive impression. We're also delighted that your daughter enjoys the food so much and that our focus on routines, especially around sleep, has been helpful for you.

My son absolutely loves this nursery. From the moment he walks in, he's excited, comfortable, and genuinely happy to be there. The staff are brilliant - warm, attentive, and truly invested in every child. They take the time to understand his personality, support his development, and make sure he feels
safe and confident each day.
The environment is nurturing, well-organised, and full of engaging activities that keep him learning and smiling. We've noticed real progress in his communication, confidence, and social skills since joining.
As parents, it's reassuring to know he is so well cared for. We couldn't be happier with the level of attention, kindness, and professionalism the team shows. Highly recommended

My son is so well looked after here - he's happy, healthy and thriving. He runs in at drop-off without even looking back, which says it all. We're really happy with the care and the team. The only thing that would make it even better is a few more pictures during the day, because I love to see what
he's up to. Overall, we couldn't recommend it more.
Reply from Jennifer OShea, Customer Experience Team Leader at Handkerchief Day NurseryThank you for your lovely feedback. We're so pleased to hear your son is happy, thriving, and settling in so confidently at drop-off. It's great to know you're happy with the care and the team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little boy started in the baby room quite young and the support I have had from the Walmley team has been amazing. My baby is thriving and has developed so much in the time he has been at the nursery. I get great feedback from the app which updates throughout the day which gives me a huge sense of
relief knowing what my baby is up to.
The staff have positive attitudes towards helping with an concerns i have and direct me to an further support needed when I ask. I cant praise them enough!

Not only has my little one been made to feel welcome, is happy to go in and loves all of the activities that they do, I feel confident leaving him with the staff there.


We have built a good relationship with the team and feel confident that we can discuss anything should we need to. He enjoys the

toys, the activities, the outdoor space and the varied food there and is developing so well with the time the team spend with him as well as getting to be with the other children.

My little boy is very happy at Footsteps. He is a real foodie and I love how varied the menu they offer is, it is rare that he doesn't eat all of the delicious food he is offered and I often see that he has gone back for seconds. The outdoor space is fantastic and I am satisfied that he is well cared
for there.

We are so pleased with the care, support, love that we have received with our twins. There is nothing that is ever too much for the nursery and staff to deal with, and we have seen both twins flourish in the space of 10 months. They both run to the gates and are so eager to start their day learning,
playing and having fun. The activities are always so varied and improves both their developmental milestones daily. Their speech and confidence has grown leaps and bounds and having our toddlers at Nursery On The Hill has been the best decision we have made thanks to each and every staff member.

The standard of nursery, and calibre of workers recruited has noticeably decreased since the "family first " takeover. The nice garden and hut/climbing frame has been replaced with a corporate style rather than something my son enjoys. The AstroTurf is a good idea.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I couldn't be happier with my baby girl's nursery! I was so anxious about her starting, but she settled in beautifully, and that's all thanks to the amazing staff who truly treat her like one of their own. The team are warm, caring, and so attentive-everything you hope for when trusting someone with
your little one.
The facilities are always clean and tidy, and the children are kept well entertained with plenty of enrichment opportunities. I love how the nursery incorporates seasonal activities to support the children's learning and development; it's clear so much thought goes into planning each day.
The baby room in particular is fantastic. It's a calm, welcoming space, and my daughter is always happy and engaged when she's there. Seeing how much she enjoys attending brings me so much peace of mind.
I'm genuinely thrilled that she attends this nursery-it's been such a positive experience for both of us. Highly recommend!

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Our son started this nursery 6 weeks ago, having left another (non footsteps) nursery that he attended for 2 years. Our son is a completely different child since he started with footsteps Lichfield. He is more confident and most importantly happier. His attention skills have improved and he is happy
and engaged in activities when we pick him up at the end of the day (rather than previously stood by the door, on his own, looking upset). We are very glad we made the decision for our son to get a new start, what a difference it's making already to his quality of life, confidence and learning journey.

Tough to get places and this is always a nail biter
when new term availability is released, more spaces would be welcomed by parents
