Corner House Nursery Poplars

from Penny C (Mother of Child) published on 1 December 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter moved from a childminder to Poplars Nursery as she really wasn't settling, and we were so worried that moving her might make things worse. Thank goodness we did!
She has settled far better than we could ever have imagined, and that's all thanks to Kelly and the rest of the wonderful Bumblebee
team.
Every single member of staff is so kind, caring, and genuinely invested in the children. The updates we receive throughout the day are so reassuring and help us feel connected. If we ever have any questions or worries, the team always responds straight away and keeps us fully updated.
Two months in, and we don't have a single regret about making the move. Our daughter is thriving - her vocabulary has trebled, and she's learning and picking up so many new things every week.
We're beyond happy with Poplars and so grateful to all the fantastic staff who make it such a special place!

Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter has been attending Happitots Inverkip for over a year now. She recently transitioned into the 2's room and the staff were great at helping making this as smooth as possible. They ensured she had plenty of settling in days and used lots of group play activities to encourage her to socialise
with the other children. She always looks forward to going to nursery and always tells us how much she loves all the members of staff. I was wary of putting my daughter into nursery when she was so young (11 months) but now I can say it has been one of the best experiences for her. She has come on leaps and bounds in her development and the staff at Happitots have definitely contributed a lot to that. Thank you all.

Every single member of staff is amazing with him and treats him as if he was one of their own. Our son absolutely loves going into nursery and is developing really
well, which we thank the nursery's devotion and nurturing care for. Definitely recommend!

Holyrood Nursery Swinton

from S D (Mother of Child) published on 25 November 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has recently moved here and he is so happy to go to nursery and always in a good mood when we collect him.
He's settled so quick and his behaviour and attitude has improved drastically after a negative experience elsewhere.
He's back to my happy, lovely little boy after such a short period
since starting and I cant thank the staff enough.
I wish we had found this little gem sooner!

Corner House Nursery Falkirk

from J G (Father of Child) published on 25 November 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Iv had my daughter at corner house for a few weeks now and she is loving it. My daughter is 11 months old and has been very shy about seeing or being with new people, so the thought of her in nursery scared us. To our surprise she loves going in and hardly wants to come home at night. The girls in the
baby room have been fantastic and have kept us updated on how the wee one has been. I'm glad we chose corner house as they have made going to work and leaving our daughter a lot less stressful. I would highly recommend the baby room to anyone looking for a nursery.

Corner House Nursery Poplars

from Stephanie P (Mother of Child) published on 25 November 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We initially viewed poplars for our daughter because my partner came here when he was baby / toddler.


When we realised that some of the team where the same team from when he was a child attending poplars, it immediately made us feel like this nursery stood out against the rest. With a long standing

team like this one it shows consistency, reliability and that it is overall a good place to work.
This made us feel at ease and something we didn't really see at other nurseries.
My daughter loves it here, and is invested in telling her teachers about her weekends and adventures outside of nursery which again proves an emotional and supportive bond she must feel.


They communicate really well and also I love the outsourced activities they organise for the kids, and they never miss a holiday or important date.


We will be definitely sending out second child here as well.

The Mere Nature Kindergarten

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Stacy and Sarah are so warm and welcoming. They run the nursery really well. The nursery workers in the rooms are always thinking of great activities for the children and are so kind. We've been in every room now and have sent both children to Mere. Our children love the staff and they couldn't do enough
for us. They were really generous and helpful during settling in for both children. We love that the children get to run on the cricket pitch and go for wanders as pre-schoolers. The newsletters keep us up to date on all the lovely things the children have been up to and we really appreciate when we see photo updates on the apps.

Happitots Nursery South Lanarkshire

from A H (Mother of Child) published on 7 November 2025
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been attending Happitots for a year now. He is in the Toddler room. Initially he struggled to settle as he is quite a shy little boy and he only attends 2 half days per week. However, the staff were great with him and within a matter of weeks there was a huge difference in him. He now looks
forward to going to nursery and goes in with no issues at all.
He is a much more confident boy now and I believe his nursery environment has played a huge part in that.
The staff working with Noah are always very friendly & helpful. I would definitely recommend Happitots to anyone looking for care for their children.

Our son is having a wonderful time at Holyrood! The staff are all amazing and look after him so well every day. They plan loads of fun things for the children to do and take them outside as much as possible, which he loves! The food is brilliant and we love hearing all about his day when we pick him
up. It's so reassuring as a parent to know he is having the best time during the week!

Five stars from a very happy parent!
I'm extremely happy with this nursery-it's been a wonderful experience from day one. The environment is nurturing and well-organised, with a huge garden that gives the children plenty of space to play and explore. The staff are absolutely fantastic-kind, attentive,
and genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing. A special mention goes to Steff, who has formed a beautiful bond with my child and clearly brings so much heart to her role. My child adores her, and it's lovely to see that affection returned with such care. The nursery is always spotless, which gives me great peace of mind. I couldn't ask for a better place for my child to grow and thrive.
