Day Nurseries Owned by Childbase Partnership in Nottinghamshire

From Geraldine making the onboarding process seamless to the wonderful nursery team caring for her each day, we've been so impressed. Long may it continue! Thank you to the whole team.

Our daughter has attended Edwalton day nursery since Jan 2025. She has absolutely thrived in every room, and is currently in Butterflies. Each and every member of staff is wonderful (Bumblebees staff are our particular favourite!) and take such good care of the children. They genuinely care, provide great updates and she's learnt so much whilst there. The manager is also great and Sarah is always willing to chat if required. The children spend so much time outdoors too which was so important to us.

The carers give him so much attention and encouragement, and since starting, he has become much more chatty and confident. The food is freshly prepared on site with a great variety of fruit and vegetables, and he really enjoys his meals. I also love that the children spend time outdoors in the garden. The app is fantastic for updates, and communication is always quick and helpful. We're so glad we chose this nursery.

I can't praise this nursery enough. All staff in the baby room have built such a beautiful relationship with me and my family. They go above and beyond for my son everyday he's there and the level of care is outstanding. I'm so glad we chose this nursery, thanks for everything so far!

Our daughter has had such a lovely experience at this nursery so far. The staff are incredibly friendly and caring, and they supported the settling-in process so well, which made a huge difference for us. The meals provided are great, and we really appreciate how much time the children spend outside exploring and playing. We've also noticed so many educational benefits already - our child is learning and developing so much in a happy, nurturing environment. Highly recommend.

We love the staff here and the staff are consistent. Our son has been in two rooms now and they've been great at settling him both times. They don't rush it and make sure he's comfortable before anything else. He always enjoys the food, and they spend lots of time outside which is great to see. Really happy with the place.

We would recommend the nursery.

Very friendly staff, made me feel comfortable and my daughter loves her days at nursery. Great Job

My daughter started at Edwalton at the end of 2025 and we have so far been really happy there. She took to her room and key worker really quickly during the settling in period. Which was designed specifically for her needs. She loves going there and is very happy with all the singing and dancing and messy play. She eats all her meals and naps well. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming from the word go and the admin staff are very helpful with any questions. Very happy with our choice. Thank you

Really professional and friendly nursery, everyone is genuinely nice and we always feel very welcome. Staff is quick to response, and the baby loves it there. High standards of care and development; the baby is feeling very confident and supported there.

Our little girl started at the nursery when she was 11 months old. The staff were/are so welcoming and put us at ease straight away, as the settling in period is always difficult. We have noticed a huge difference in our daughters development since she has started within the caterpillar room. Communication is great from the staff and the information they provide on the nursery app to show our daughters daily activities. Thank you!!

We have had a great experience at the nursery over the years with three of our children. The staff are wonderful and attentive and attend to the needs of the children. We would highly recommend the nursery to others.

I honestly cannot thank the nursery team enough for the love, care, and attention they show our son every single day. From the very beginning, we felt completely reassured that he was in safe and nurturing hands. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and filled with positivity, which makes such a difference for both children and parents.The Caterpillars ladies are absolutely fantastic. They are kind, patient, and genuinely passionate about what they do. It's clear that they truly care about each child as an individual. They pay close attention to the little details - whether it's noticing new milestones, encouraging new skills, or simply understanding when a child needs extra comfort or reassurance. That level of attentiveness means so much. I am truly grateful to the entire team for their dedication, professionalism, and the genuine love they show. It gives me complete peace of mind knowing my son is in such caring and capable hands.

Our little boy started at Edwalton Day when he was 18 months old. We had just moved to the area. Six months later, we are so pleased with our choice. The facilities are fantastic, particularly the outside space. Our little boy has come on really well in terms of development and loves his days at nursery. The staff have been brilliant. Thank you Edwalton Day.

Communication with parents is very good. Were always kept up to date on Tai's routine, meals and activities. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about the children and pay attention to their individual needs. Were very happy with the nursery and caterpillar team.

My daughter started nursery at just over 10 months old and has settled in wonderfully. I cannot recommend the nursery enough, every single member of staff are super polite and positive. I love the daily sheets as they keep me well informed and the daily updates on the app is great to see what my daughter is getting up to throughout the day. She has really thrived at nursery already and coming home super happy!

Thank you team x

When my youngest moved from the caterpillars (baby) to the ladybird room, it was a significant but a very, very positive move for them. I found the staff in all rooms very supportive.

My daughter started here when she was 11 months and they settled her in, made sure O was kept informed and genuinely car about her wellbeing. All staff, from the office to management and all the nursery staff always seem happy and that means my daughter is too.

My two love Edwarlton. The facilities and outside space is fantastic and the staff are so friendly. The progression that I have seen in them both is great and my eldest always talk about the staff as her friends.

Edwalton Day Nursery is excellent, cannot recommend it highly enough. It feels like we are part of their extended family. Warmth, care, and professionalism are shown in every interaction with the staff. My son is supported to thrive with lots of care and attention. He is learning a lot while he is at nursery and there is a lot of care put into the activities, and toys on offer, with new toys and equipment being bought regularly. Mostly I appreciate the warmth and love shown to my son by all the staff so that he has settled well (even the transitions to new rooms) and thrives. Thank you!
