Growing Up Green

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son first started when he was 8 months old and was super happy. Perhaps equally importantly, I also felt really happy with him there, the staff were fantastic with him. I do contract work and Growing up Green has been fantastically flexible to ensure I have the child care I need to get the work done.

My son attended GUG 7 years ago, and despite us moving further away it was the obvious choice for us when looking for childcare for our daughter. The staff are wonderful, so caring and attentive and every time we drop her off/ pick her up you can just see that all the children there are happy and well
cared for. Management are always super helpful whenever we need anything. Absolutely love this nursery and would recommend it to everyone!!

Growing Up Green has been a fantastic nursery for both of our children. From baby room through to pre-school, they developed really close, nurturing relationships with staff and key-workers, who got to know their personalities and how to bring out the best in them. There's a wonderful range of engaging
activities, from yoga, to Music Mike, regular forest school park trips, lots of garden time, educational activities and cultural celebrations from Diwali and Eid to Christmas, Halloween and Pride. Home-cooked, healthy organic food and cloth nappies were a big bonus for us (since we used cloth at home). They were really supportive with potty training, transition between rooms and transition to school (Balfour & Downs especially) too. It's a wonderful, warm community with lots of opportunities to build connections too - including the annual "Olympics" event and regular parents' evenings. The garden is a bit small but well-used and regular forest school trips out make up for it.

My son joined Growing Up Green at 6 months old and has really thrived in the year that he has attended. The attention he has been given whilst at nursery is really evident in the speed of which he has learnt new skills.


The patience that the team have in the babies room is incredible (my son wasn't

always the easiest one to put down for a nap) and they are really knowledgeable in a wide range of children's development.
My son has grown a lovely attachment to the staff at GUG and really enjoys going there.


Also the food he gets at nursery is far superior to what he gets fed at home!

We feel so lucky to have such a wonderful nursery close by for our daughter. The care and support she receives is outstanding. There are so many daily activities, and they go outside as much as possible. There are regular updates to parents via the app and parents evenings, and our questions are always
answered by key workers or nursery management. She has strong bonds with all the staff and with the other children there. I am also always impressed with the food they provide and she eats so well when she is there. They also are very happy to follow our lead on things like naps which I hear other nurseries don't do! Overall we're super happy here.

Growing up green is a great nursery! Our eldest went there and they really set her up to thrive in her new infant school. Our youngest who is 15 months now girls to the nursery and us absolutely loving it! The staff are so wonderful, they truly care for the babies/teenies and in the short time she's
been there, she's built some really solid relationships with the nursery staff. They always do lovely activities with them, such as painting or get the foam play out etc. the communication with the staff is fab and I'm kept up to date with Marnie's day in terms of sleep, what's she's eaten and nappy changes etc as well as frequent pictures of her playing. We are so happy with the nursery and would recommend it to anyone.

Growing Up Green really feels like an extension of our family and network. Our daughter talks about all the aunties like they are her friends, and this extends to all the members of staff, even members who do not have direct contact through her classes; all know her little personality, and she talks
about them around our dinner table. When we move through transitions (whether moving up rooms or emotional milestones), we are delighted most days with photos and detailed accounts of what the class got up to, and how our daughter interacts and grows. The amenities are amazing, but it's the people who make it our community.

The Growing Up Green staff are fantastic and so creative with what activities the kids are doing each day. There is a lovely atmosphere within the whole nursery, and the individual care we have experienced with both our kids has been exceptional. There is a lovely outdoor space in the summer that our
kids love tearing around in!

Both of my daughters attended Growing Up Green Preston Road at some point. Both loved it. Currently, my youngest is attending and has been there for just over a year. She started in teenies and was immediately at home. Recently, she moved to toddlers, and if anything, loves it more. Growing Up Green
is a lovely, nurturing, educational environment, and we love it.

We are so happy with the care our children have received at Growing Up Green. Our son spent 3 wonderful years here and is now thriving at school, thanks in large part to how well the team prepared him for that transition. His time at nursery was filled with engaging activities, nurturing support, and
precious friendships. Our 7-months old daughter has now started and she has been welcomed with the same warmth and attentiveness. What sets this nursery apart is also the sense of community they built amongst parent. We've also made amazing friends through the nursery! It's a place where children are seen, supported and celebrated.

It's hard as a new parent letting people outside of family care for your child but the GUG team handled the transition with great care and attention. We soon relaxed as we saw how well cared for our son was. We find the team to be supportive & helpful to parents and intuitive, caring, and professional
to the children. The structured play supports his confidence and development & we often find ourselves asking the team for their advice with particular milestones like potty training which they take a very active supportive role. You will also find that they are very good at helping the little ones learn to understand and regulate their emotions, this is further supported by weekly yoga classes which the kids absolutely love. The food is also a big plus at GUG. They do hot lunches and teas which makes our lives so much easier, and it is all freshly made on site. Our second son will be following in his brother's footsteps and enrolling at GUG soon!

Our children have been at this nursery for a while and have spent time in three of the four rooms, and we can honestly say the staff have been fantastic in all of them. Every room has a warm, welcoming atmosphere, and the team put so much effort into creative and engaging activities that our kids absolutely
love.
The garden is brilliant, and the children get to spend lots of time exploring and playing outside.
Emma, the manager, is always available when needed, and she's a great listener. She's positive, welcoming, and really helps create the lovely atmosphere the nursery is known for.
Another bonus is that food is provided for every meal of the day, which makes life much easier and our children enjoy it.
Overall, we are genuinely very pleased with everything. Our children are happy, supported, and thriving here, and we are very grateful for the wonderful care they receive. We highly recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a safe, loving, and creative place for their child.

Growing Up Green is such a wholesome and nurturing nursery - we couldn't be happier with the care and attention our child receives. The staff are warm, thoughtful, and genuinely passionate about helping each child grow with confidence and curiosity. The eco-friendly ethos and beautiful environment make
it a calm, inspiring place to learn and play. Our son comes home full of stories, positive conversations, and smiles, which says it all! Communication is excellent, and the whole team make you feel welcomed. We're so grateful to have found Growing Up Green - it's a truly special place that gives children the best possible start in a rustic and organic way.

Absolutely wonderful nursery!
Both of my children have been part of the Growing Up Green family - my eldest started at 8 months and stayed right through until school, and my youngest is currently attending and just as happy.
What stands out most for me is how professional, caring, and genuinely lovely

I can't recommend Growing Up Green highly!!

My son joined GUG 2 Toddlers when he was just 2 years old and did not speak any English at the time. The GUG team put in so much effort to help him settle in, and with their patience and dedication, he gradually grew into a confident and happy little bilingual boy, ready for reception. His time at GUG
truly laid the foundation for him to come out of his shell, and today he is thriving and absolutely delighted at his new school. We are deeply grateful to the entire GUG team for their support and care.

Our daughter has been at Growing up Green, Beaconsfield Rd, Brighton for more than 4 years and has made great friendships with all her group. The care and support she has received from all of the staff has been outstanding. The nursery provided loads of activities to encourage her development and threw
in the right amount of hugs where needed. They listened and took positive action whenever I raised concerns and provided us with tips and insight into her life inside the nursery. They organised external fun activities both widening the children's knowledge and assisting parents to make connections. Whenever a health issue arose they followed it up with health information advice on how to manage it.
