Day Nurseries Owned by Young Sussex

the needs of our son. We were all apprehensive about how he would settle, but to our astonishment, he absolutely loved being there from day 1 and me and my husband were so relieved that we chose Young Sussex.

His key worker (and all the team) have been so warm and friendly. Every child is treated as an individual and we love the little pictures we get throughout the week.

Our little boy has developed so well and really grown in confidence under the care of the team. I really feel like they have taken the time to understand him, his likes and dislikes, which has made such a difference.

Thank you to all at Young Sussex, Shoreham. We are so pleased that we found you!

of the staff at Young Sussex. They put on an engaging programme of activities that challenge and entertain the children whilst also providing focus on particular areas of development tailored to each child's needs.

I'd have no hesitation to recommend them and will feel sad to say goodbye when my daughter moves onto school.

fantastic and I truly feel like I have been included in all aspects of her development since she started. Thank you to the Ladybug team!

sad or worried; he has always told me nice and funny stories about the staff, he has never felt uncomfortable or misunderstood, and for that I will always be very grateful :) I would also like to point out that they have been able to perfectly manage my son's special dietary requirements, taking into account not only gluten-free meals, but also play items that may contain gluten, changing some ingredients to make gluten-free crafts. I am extremely grateful for this. As for me, communication with Daniela and the staff has always been fantastic, very close and accessible, and always willing to help with any circumstances that may arise. For all this, thank you very much!

arts activities that have been really thoughtful and I'll keep as a very treasured memory. I also loved the extra activities that were on offer (e.g. when external visitors like musicians came and engaged the kids) and I was extremely grateful for the extra requests I was able to make, for example, my daughter and her two besties had a brilliant little photoshoot on their last day together before starting school - another really precious memory to treasure and keep. We also made the staffs' lives extra difficult by asking them to use our cloth nappies which I am sure was an additional challenge but they took it on and tried to accommodate which I was very grateful for!

in my children's development.

to work. There is a low turnover of staff which makes sense with a stong and commited leadership team. The staff all wear uniform which really helped our daughter understand who she could go to and the setting has great toys, activities and a lovely garden. She's been very happy their since day one and has moved up to the toddler room which she skips into most days. When she does get upset going in occasionally, staff are brilliant in knowing which activity to suggest to make her enthusiastic! She talks constantly at home about all the things she gets up to. The office staff have been extremely supportive and flexible, always available via phone, email or popping in.

and easily getting overwhelmed or too excited but thanks to experienced and loving professionals working here my son learned a lots how to deal with his emotions and not only.

Would recommend it over and over again.

her go in confident and calm every morning. I trust everyone who works here and would highly recommend it for any other families.

and nurturing environment at each stage of development. The children have so many opportunities to develop interests through all of the activities and play. The outside space is fantastic, our daughter loves the garden and any opportunity to play in the mud kitchen! Communication with the staff is brilliant and feels like a partnership, they are so considered and really care for the needs of the children.
Our son (one) has recently started and he loves nursery too, it is wonderful to see the bonds he is forming with the staff already. We are moving out of the area, so sadly leaving but we are so grateful to Young Sussex for the wonderful start they have given our children.

young Sussex I would highly recommend. The staff are very kind and professional and the environment is great for the kids. Any incidents were dealt with so well and made me feel so comfortable. My youngest needed cream applied to his skin daily and they did this for him and he was very comfortable having this done. Thank you for helping my children thrive ready for school!!

and we were updated all the way through.
Her progress and needs were often discussed and we had informal chat about her day every day.
We, unfortunately, had to change nursery after we moved away but would have loved to keep her there until school.
Now we have another nursery to compare, we can definitely say that Young Sussex made our daughter feel happy and special on a daily basis.

with the team who have all been there a long time which is testament to a great team.
They have lots of space indoors and out and the separate baby garden is really nice.
The opening hours and flexibility of attendance was a huge benefit to us.
We are looking forward to sending our youngest soon and seeing everyone again.

There is a wide variety of toys, activities, fun dress up days, nature club, messy play, soft play, dancing, singing etc.

When his first day of school arrived, he skipped through the gates without looking back, excited and prepared for this new chapter. The staff gave him a genuinely positive first experience of education that has set the foundation for his love of learning. We feel so fortunate to have found such an exceptional nursery and couldn't recommend them more highly to other families.

very short time my daughter started to be confident in talking , making friends and taking part in group activities. Thank you YoungSussex team .

Both our children had a wonderful time, building close bonds with teachers, who rapidly became key figures in their emotional development and learning. I genuinely cannot recommend the school highly enough. We even moved out of the city and continued to take our children into Brighton so they could still attend Young Sussex. Management have been especially important in our journey, deftly navigating funding changes, the COVID experience and all the challenges the Early Years sector faces in the UK. A special place. There were a lot of happy tears on our last day...

team members really put our minds at ease when our son had his settling in sessions. Our son really loves being at YS and is always happy when we drop off and pick up. The staff listen to our concerns and are very happy to adjust to our son's needs. We are really happy that he is at YS and recommend it to other parents.
