Day Nurseries Owned by My Ohana

Most importantly, I've seen such a positive change in Leo since starting. At just one year old, he is becoming so much more independent and confident. He is learning to feed himself, put things in the bin and take part in everyday routines. It's lovely to see his development and independence being encouraged in such a caring environment. I'm so grateful to the whole team for the care, patience and support they give Leo.

How many nurseries build such enduring bonds with kids that they hold a reunion and 9 year-olds beg to visit? My Ohana is THAT nursery! We've just wrapped up a combined 7 years here. The nursery is all you'd expect and more. Normal days are planned with age-appropriate activities developing independence, social and emotional skills, and school readiness (for older kids). They know the kids so well, so can plan activities around their interests (one day they planned a treasure hunt, as our youngest likes finding "shiny" things!). Parents are kept well informed in person and via an app. Beyond the everyday, there's always extras - baking, summer pool parties, seasonal crafts, local outings (to a library, farm, care home, park). There's forest school, sport-based activities, yoga! But most importantly, you know your child will have all the love, care and attention you could wish for. There were tears on our last day (all round!) and that's a testament to how much you will feel like family here.

We couldn't be happier with MyOhana Nursery,York. As a granny, it's wonderful to see how happy, confident and settled my grandson is. The staff are caring, kind and attentive, and it's clear how much they genuinely care about the children. He has learned so much and absolutely loves going to nursery. I have complete confidence that he is safe, happy and very well looked after. I would highly recommend MyOhana to any family.

I think this time at Ohana has been absolutely essential to him developing his social skills and improving his behaviours. Rowan is a better and happier child for being there, and looking forward to seeing how he develops further in the next year.

Our son has attended this nursery since he was 12 months old and has always been incredibly happy and settled. You can genuinely tell the staff care about the children and enjoy spending their days with them. There is a lovely family feel, with staff knowing every child by name, even if they don't work directly in their room.

We've been particularly impressed by the emphasis on learning and development alongside providing a warm and caring environment. Our son has grown enormously in confidence, both personally and socially, and the staff actively work with him on important skills such as sharing, taking turns, communication and interacting with others. There is clearly a lot of thought behind the activities they provide and he is constantly learning through play.

He has allergies and the staff are excellent at ensuring he is cared for appropriately. We also appreciate the familiar staff who have known him since he was very small. Quite often he doesn't want to leave when we collect

My son has had a brilliant time at My Ohana since he started aged 9 months. He's always had a lovely connection with the staff and is very happy to go in every day. He loves the activities that are provided - including several different child-focused programs, and always eats well! We recently potty trained and everyone at My Ohana helped support our approach which made the whole process so much easier for him. Communication with parents is excellent, both through the App and at pick up and drop off. They make great use of the outside space in all weathers and are always encouraging my son in anything he is interested in.

I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough. My son has been at My Ohana Cheltenham for 4 years, since he was just 6 months old, and has always been so happy, well cared for and excited to go in. The staff are incredibly caring, supportive and approachable, and I've always felt confident knowing he was in safe hands.

The nursery provides a fantastic range of activities and experiences, from baking and crafts to trips out, riding ponies and hatching eggs. My son has learned so much, made lots of lovely friends and grown in confidence during his time there. I'm so sad to say goodbye, but feel incredibly grateful for the wonderful start the nursery has given him.

I cannot recommend My Ohana (York) more highly.

The team are incredibly welcoming and supportive. My little boy is quite high-energy and occasionally needs a little extra suppers - but he has absolutely flourished. He loves it and always talks about his "friends" (referencing both staff and children) and genuinely enjoys going.

Our son has loved it here since the moment he walked in. Every member of staff is friendly and welcoming and he has been provided with the highest level of childcare. The activities and food are great and he has had fabulous learning opportunities. We feel it is a safe and productive learning environment in which he has thrived endlessly. Thanks to everyone and we look forward to a few more years with you .

My husband and I recently attended our son's graduation ceremony and we were both very impressed by the effort that had gone into it and how happy and confident all the children seemed. We are so proud of all that our son has achieved at the nursery over the years, and the wonderful staff have been faultless. It is clear that they care very deeply for each child that joins and the nursery really does have a 'family' feel to it. Feeling emotional that his time at the nursery has come to an end!

We recently moved our daughter here from another placement - and wow - what a difference it's made already after just a few short weeks. Staff are happy, engaged and provide great updates regularly throughout the day. There's no shortage of activities and enrichment and the outdoor space is ideal for busy toddlers. We can't thank the team here enough for already making such a positive difference.

I cannot begin to express the love I have for the my ohana cheltenham. They have looked after my grandsons so well, the boys have loved their time there and speak so affectionately of their carers. They have given the boys confidence and taught them so much. A special shout out to Candice, julie and Jess. All are brilliant, but these three have gone above and beyond for the boys and helped me and their mum. They feel like family with their warmth, care and practical advice. Will definitely miss you. xx

We've had a very good experience with our daughter attending My Ohana. The staff are friendly and welcoming and have always go the extra mile. Our daughter loves going to nursery!

We wouldn't hesitate to ever recommend this nursery and would like to thank the staff for always being so great with our daughter!

My son has attended My Ohana (Chelt) since just before he turned one and it's been such an amazing place for him!

He's made so many little friends there that we see outside of nursery, the staff have always treated us so well and I'm quite sad to see him leave for school, but this particular nursery has helped make him the funny little guy he is today, and I can't thank them enough for all their hard work over the years!

Also big thank you to JuJu for allowing the kids to have a day out riding your pony, this was such an incredible experience and I love that you guys do these things for them!

Thank you again for being such an amazing nursery and making such a difference to my son. (E and M)

A fantastic early years setting right in the heart of Staines! The staff are professional, consistent, and truly care about child's individual needs. The facilities are modern, safe, and the communication is brilliant. Daily app updates and the activities they plan are fantastic. Highly recommend to any local parents. Thank you to the whole team for giving our child such a wonderful start!

All staff and friendly, kind and supportive especially as my son is just coming out of nappies they have been very supportive and encouraging! 5* here :D

The staff at My Ohana Gloucester are very caring and receptive. My child has really thrive since joining the nursery. The management team is also very responsive. I will definitely recommend the nursery.

My daughter has thrived so much at Station House and is always so happy to go to nursery. The staff have always been very supportive with any of our concerns and are very through with what has been going on during the day at pick up time. Can't recommend this nursery enough.

I have been very impressed with the care for my daughter here. She was settled in at an unhurried pace as suited us and the exceptionally caring staff have quickly gotten to know her well. The management have been very professional and approachable. I've enjoyed the daily updates on the app which have made leaving her a little easier.

Today I attended 'Grandparents Day' - what a lovely idea and what a lovely place. I had not been before and was made so welcome. All the staff took the time to come and talk to me. All the children played well together and respected each other sharing the equipment and games. Well done team.
