Overall Experience

My child has been at nursery since May 2025 and she loves it
You can tell the staff really care for your child and it shows how happy she is to come into nursery each day.

They get you involved in her development to ensure they are using activities she likes at home
When she was in babies room

the personal touch of family photos for her to look through is lovely
I like that all staff know her name and who you are and not just staff in her room

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you for sharing your experience. It's great to hear how happy your child is to come into nursery each day and that you feel so involved in her development.

We love building those personal connections - from family photos to knowing every child and parent by name - so it's lovely to know this has made a difference for you.

Shirley Green Day Nursery
from Mandeep K (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery - we've seen huge development in our little one's personality and confidence since she joined last year. It took our daughter a couple months to fully settle in and come out of her shell the staff were absolutely brilliant and went above and beyond to help her settle (they also reassured

us and this was huge for us as first time parents).

The staff are all extremely kind and caring with the children in both the pre school and toddler room and there are genuine bonds formed - our daughter absolutely adores her teacher Ella as well as her classmates.

There are a large variety of activities that the children get to enjoy including messy play, building, reading, outdoor play, drawing, as well as educational visits from people like Alex the Forest school man!

The food is 5* and extremely healthy with lots of variety. The children are also given fruit and water as well as other healthy snacks throughout the day.

The perfect nursery and we couldn't be happier as parents.

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you so much for such a thoughtful review. Settling in can take time, so we're really pleased to hear how supported you felt and how much your daughter has grown in confidence.

It's lovely to hear about the bonds she's built with the team and her friends, and that she's enjoying such a wide variety of activities - including Forest School. Thank you for trusting Shirley Green and for your kind recommendation.

from Elizabeth N (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Thornhill Day Nursery has been absolutely wonderful for our daughter, who is in the toddler room. Kiah and Misbah do an outstanding job caring for her and have created such a warm, nurturing environment. She is always extremely happy to attend nursery and even asks for them when she's at home, which

says everything! I always receive detailed, thoughtful feedback every day, which is so reassuring as a parent. Kiah and Misbah always greet us with genuine smiles and handle any issues quickly and professionally. We couldn't be happier with the care, attention, and love our daughter receives!

Reply from Becky Renolds, Nursery Manager at Thornhill Day Nursery & Pre-schoolThank you so much for your lovely feedback. It's wonderful to hear how happy your daughter is in the toddler room and how much she enjoys spending time with Kiah and Misbah.

Overall Experience

We couldn't be happier with our experience at Thornhill Day Nursery. From the very beginning, the care, professionalism and genuine warmth shown to our son has been outstanding. He absolutely loves attending nursery, and as a parent there is nothing more reassuring than seeing your child excited, happy

and settled in his environment.
The nursery provides a safe, nurturing and stimulating setting where children are supported both emotionally and academically. We've seen significant growth in our son's confidence, communication and independence since he started attending.
A huge thank you to Sharna and the preschool team for their dedication, patience and genuine care. It's clear they are passionate about what they do, and it truly shows in the way the children thrive each day.
We are thoroughly pleased with Thornhill Day Nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring, supportive and high-quality nursery.

Reply from Becky Renolds, Nursery Manager at Thornhill Day Nursery & Pre-schoolThank you so much for sharing such a thoughtful review. It's wonderful to hear how happy and settled your son is at Thornhill and how much confidence and independence he's gained since joining us.

Shirley Green Day Nursery
from Neha P (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2026 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at The Shirley Green Day Nursery for a year, starting in the Baby Room, moving to First Steps, and soon onto the Toddler Room. She was very clingy initially and needed a lot of support while settling in. What really stands out about this nursery is their unlimited settling-in sessions,

which made a big difference for us. Adam was patient and supportive, making the transition smooth. In the Baby Room, Mel provided consistent care, which helped my daughter feel comfortable and thanks also to Adam and Katie for their support. In First Steps, Kerry has been very attentive, making each day enjoyable for my daughter and Adam also offered great care. Overall, the staff at this nursery is great at providing a safe, supportive, and engaging environment for the children, thanks to each one of them.

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you for such a thoughtful review. We're so pleased to hear how well your daughter has progressed through each room and how supported you both felt during those early settling-in stages.

Our unlimited settling sessions are designed to help children feel secure at their own pace, so it's great to know this made such a difference for your family. Adam, Mel, Kerry and Katie will really appreciate your kind words. Thank you for recognising the whole team's care and commitment.

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery, Daya loves it and Ella her pre school teacher! We've noticed massive development in Daya's personality and communication skills and this is in large part down to the nursery and Ella spending time to work with Daya closely on an individual basis. There are a number of activities that

the children partake in daily and the variety ensures that the children have fun and remain engaged. Ella is popular with all of the children and this is down to her caring and loving nature that means Daya feels safe and looked after. The food served is 5 star and is healthy with fruits etc and again a lot of variety. Daya has a close bond with a lot of her class mates and has really come out of her shell since starting nursery last year. A brilliant nursery and 100% the right choice.

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you so much for such a lovely review. It's wonderful to hear how much Daya enjoys her time at nursery and the strong bond she's built with Ella. Supporting each child as an individual is so important to us, so it's great to know you've seen such positive changes in her confidence and communication.

We're also pleased to hear how much she enjoys the variety of activities on offer, as well as mealtimes - keeping children engaged, well nourished and happy throughout the day really matters to us. Knowing Daya feels safe, settled and has built close friendships means a great deal to the whole team.

Thank you for choosing us and for sharing your experience.

We absolutely love my son's nursery and couldn't be happier with the care he receives. The team are all amazing and put so much love and thought into everything they do, especially all the creative activities. It's so lovely seeing how much effort goes into his days.

Claire is my son's key person

and we honestly adore her. She is so caring, kind and attentive, and it's such a comfort knowing my child is with someone who truly cares about him. Shana, Kielly and Ella are also fantastic and make the room such a warm, happy place. We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful nursery

We are so pleased we chose Shirley Green nursery - our little boy joined when he was 1 year old and has been there for a year. The staff are really helpful and friendly and he's developed a lovely bond with them. There's outdoor play every day which was important to us. The nursery send photos every

day and lots of information on naps and food. We would thoroughly recommend.

Overall Experience

Shirley Green Day nursery has been excellent for my 2 and a half year old! Since starting nursery, we have seen that he has developed in many ways. He was rather reluctant to go during his first few times, refusing to go in and crying and it took him time to warm up, the staff have gained his trust

and he loves going now! We can see that he feels safe as he has a big smile when he sees the staff open the door and even gives hugs! He is in the toddler room and quite often, also the preschool room. The staff are excellent in both rooms, especially preschool as the staff has told us that he loves the teacher there and we can also sense that with the way she interacts with him. The staff are patient with him and helping him develop his speech and other skills which is very helpful for us at home. We look forward to seeing him progress in many ways.

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you very much for taking the time to write such a fabulous review. We are so grateful to you for taking the time to write about your experience. We are also really pleased to hear how much your son has progressed since joining us and how they were able to settle in so well. Thank you again for taking the time to write a review, we will be sure to pass on your kind comments to the team.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Shirley Green since it opened. We did look around a few nurseries local to us but found Shirley Green to look the most promising and I am so glad we picked here! There is no guilt feeling about dropping my daughter off, she even asks if she can go on days she doesn't attended.

She runs in, hugs the staff and loves sharing her stories. Her key worker Ella goes above and beyond and even helps with challenges we find ourselves dealing with at home, she works with our daughter at Nursery to improve behaviours. A big shout out to Mel to, she was a massive part of toilet training our daughter and she mastered it in a matter of weeks, such dedication from staff - they even made a toilet chart with her favourite character on for her to bring home that was the same as the one she had in nursery. I know my daughter is going to leave Shirley Green with the confidence and skills to thrive in Primary School this year and I couldn't be more thankful.

Reply from Jade Martin, Nursery Manager at Shirley Green Day NurseryThank you ever so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review. We are so pleased to hear how well your daughter has been doing at Shirley Green Day Nursery since she joined us shortly after we opened our doors for the very first time. We will be sure to pass on your fabulous comments to the team- they will be grateful to hear how happy you are.
