Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We are so pleased we came across this nursery from the start Sarah made us feel
so welcome and reassured us he was in good hands.


Our son has been attending for 4 months now and never wants to leave . They have a wide range of different activities throughout the day. A large selection of toys and

books and a warm and comfortable environment.


A wide range of homemade food options go down a treat with our son


All the girls in the baby room provide regular updates and are brilliant and engaging and every morning when he see Chloe he gets so excited which is so nice to see providing us with relief leaving him for the day .
Emma, Teds key worker goes above and beyond her role keeping us updated on his development and reassures us he is developing well.


The nursery has stay and play sessions where we can see the environment which have been brilliant and so nice to him and the staff bonding .


We are so glad we picked this nursery.

Such caring, honest staff.
So happy we sent Teddy to this nursury the girls have been nothing short of amazing for him.
Teddys first day he was upset leaving us for the first time but after 2-3 days in the nursury he's waving us off with a smile on his face going in which just shows how happy he
is being there. Thanks to all the staff at the nursury 10/10.

Our boy absolutely loves going to nursery. All the staff and management are so friendly and professional in everyway. I feel at ease when handing over our son as I know he will be cared for 100%. The amount of activitys the children have keep them busy and this also helps are son with his motor skills.
I can see a difference in our boy already with the way he's able to stand for longer periods and walk easier from one couch to the other.

What can I say. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. I have two little boys that go here and the service I have received is excellent.


As a teacher, when I initially looked for nurseries I was very fussy and was looking for somewhere with a holistic approach. This nursery does this all

and has supported both my children to develop well.


The manager (Sarah) also breaks over backwards to accommodate both my sons and has recommended things to support both my boys in accessing the best quality provision.


Both my boys really enjoy going to nursery and are happy to walk in the door. They receive a great mix of quality provision, freshly cooked meals as well as support with their emotions.


I would highly recommend this nursery!

My little boy started explorers January 2025 and will be leaving end of August 2025.


He will be really sad to leave and miss all his teachers and Friends. The relationships he has built with all his teachers and the manger of such a short time has been amazing and to help him grow, to get him ready

for big school.


The nursery is very active on the app keeping us posted on food, activities, learning journal, events, accidents etc.
this puts your mind at ease once dropping them off for the day. If feels like a safe environment especially the front door system that they have works very well.


The communication between staff and parents I feel is very efficient too. Staff work with you and your child in so many ways it's been so lovely to form relationships with the staff. Can't thank them enough.


I am currently pregnant and will be hoping to enrol my new baby some day, couldn't recommend the nursery enough.

My daughter has attended the nursery for just under a year and it has been the most rewarding time seeing her do all new things which she has learnt in nursery and all the friends which she has made.


The nursery as a whole including staff is beyond amazing. All the staff are welcoming and amazing

Both our children go to this nursery, and have done since over a year ago when my eldest was just turning 3, and youngest was 1.5. They love it, and the staff are so amazing! My eldest does have some struggles and they are so kind, patient and communicative with us to ensure she thrives. My eldest leaves
for school in September and she has learn so much and is in such a good place to start her academic journey. I can't say thankyou enough to this wonderful nursery. They put so much effort into a graduation for the leavers too. My youngest will be upping to 4 days soon and I know she will love that!

Explorers Lydiate provides top care for my daughter. My daughter has attended the nursery since 9 months of age and is now 3. The staff are all absolutely amazing and go the extra mile to provide the best possible care by keeping you informed of progress, milestones and by providing stimulating and
amazing daily activities. My daughter loves attending nursery and her confidence has improved massively too, she loves all of the staff. I would highly recommend Explorers Lydiate.

I chose this nursery for my daughter as me and her dad loved the general feel of the nursery and staff, they are all so friendly, accommodating and genuinely care about the needs of the children. However they didn't have the hours available when we first went to look around and we settled on another
nursery. We withdrew my daughters place at the other nursery before she had even started due to some concerns we had. The difference between explorers and this other nursery was eye opening. One lady was amazing in sorting a place out last minute. I love how they update you via the app throughout the day with the things she has ate, drank, the activities she has completed and if she has slept or not etc. It really puts your mind at ease. The food always looks delicious from updates on the app. They even gave out little Christmas bags with presents and keepsakes inside for her. I loved this gesture as it meant that every child had a present to open on Christmas day regardless.

This is, hands down, the best nursery you could wish for! The staff are absolutely dedicated to their job and love what they do, the facilities are always clean and cater to all ages with special attention to sensory requirement. They have regular fun activities, including personal development and constantly
update us parents with observations. Since my child has been here, he has developed in every aspect and truly loves attending his nursery. As a mother who suffers with PTSD after a traumatic pregnancy and my son having a brain condition, it means the world that they take extra special care of him. The morning staff I owe special thanks to as they have been absolutely amazing, especially one member of staff, in particular, who is a credit to the company. Would always highly recommend, thank you for all your hard work and dedication to our children and their development.

As a first-time mum, I was anxious about putting my son in daycare however after visiting the nursery/settling in sessions, I felt much better about the decision and was impressed by the care and attention given. All the staff have made us both feel welcome which has made our new routine much easier.
Our son has progressed massively since starting here, his comfort and confidence are clearly visible when attending. Several times when collecting our son, we have been told about what he has done that day and the staff member has told me how proud they are of him; the staff have such lovely bonds with the children. We are kept well informed around personal care throughout the day and activities that the nursery will be hosting, e.g. charity/Christmas events (via an app). I highly recommend this nursery, the staff and managers should all be proud of their achievements and commitment to childcare as they provide such a happy and supportive place for our children to develop.

My child has been in Explorers since she was 2 and now she is 4 years old, she absolutely loves the nursery and all the staff there. Any problems I've had, they have been quick to sort it and keep updates on it.
Any accidents that occur are told very quickly via telephone or by the app
The app is
very good for updates etc., always updating what my child is doing, also very good for newsletters to keep updated with what's going on throughout each month.
