Day Nurseries Owned by Shapes Day Nurseries

in the rooms to the management staff. I'd especially like to mention the Pre-School staff who worked so hard to prepare the children for school and who made such a fuss of them graduating, with a beautiful ceremony and party. This sort of effort is also reflected across the nursery in the presentation and efforts they make with decorations for seasonal or special events which is also a really nice touch. The chefs are great too, providing delicious meals for the children with such a range.
I would recommend Shapes to anyone looking for a nursery.

day to tell you what your child has been doing, what they have eaten etc. They have been a great support with potty training too. The childrens artwork is always displayed outside of their rooms, and there are often themed days like world book day, space day etc plus the chicks at Easter time which is very cute to see the children interact with them. They have a garden they use regularly throughout the day aswell as their own soft play. I would highly recommend Shapes and I am very grateful my daughter attends here.

in with her friends and teachers. Lots of staff members have been working here for a long time and our daughter has formed very strong and positive relationships with both children and staff members over the years.

the nursery decided to undertake a review of my child on the last day at the nursery without informing me as the parent.
Secondly, the owner after 5 years of attending still had no idea who I was and made no effort to improve things. For the most part, staff are young and inexperienced. This has changed a lot since COVID and the turnover of staff is exceptionally high with no organisation. Management of this location is poor and they do not help the children prepare for school and the change in environment. Phonics development is poor too.
A very disappointing experience

with such caring and nurturing individuals. I can't recommend Shapes enough.

love them so much. I love the way all staff know all the children’s names and likewise. I felt it was like one big family, which helped me make up my mind in choosing them, along with the lovely home cooked food menu, and great garden I have never looked back since, all the love care and compassion is shown every day. My baby has been going now since September 2021, and she was only 6 months old when she started. They have all helped her grow and achieve her milestones along the way. They have no problems in taking time to listen to your worries, achievements or even your babbles after a sleepless night! They are so caring. I am so glad I chose Shapes Day Nursery and would highly recommend to anyone.

concerns. A cut above the rest!

me goodbye at drop-off as she is so excited to start her day there. I love how the staff have a little story to tell you at pick-up about what your child has done that day. You can really tell they care.

daughter was invited in to play, and the children were so kind and gentle; this I fully believe comes from having nurturing staff that creates a friendly and inclusive environment. My little one loves the outdoor playground, and it’s always a good day when they have visited the soft play area! We used to have tears at drop-off at a previous setting, but now I have to work hard to get her to come home! I have full faith and trust in the staff to not only look after but to nurture my child whilst she is with them, and I have seen this in person when catching a sneak peek at pick-up. We are so happy that she will have a few more years here! Highly recommend!

your child was their own.
You will never have to worry or fear about your child's safety or happiness here, and the staff always go above and beyond to care for not just the child, but for you as well.
My children have been attending Shapes since 2018, and I'm going to be sad the day my son leaves.
I can't recommend Shapes highly enough; you will not be disappointed in this nursery. The facilities, the food, the staff and the enjoyment that this nursery offers are impeccable.
The nursery is clean. It's bright. It's fun, it's loving, and it's always full of smiles.
By far this is the best decision I ever made for my children to send them here, and I cannot thank Shapes enough.

We have recommended Shapes to friends whose children now also attended and have loved the experience as much as we have. Cannot fault it at all and will be sad to say our final goodbyes in September. Thanks to all the amazing staff!

keeping children and staff safe.
Each of the rooms has great nursery staff who are caring and compassionate with the children. I feel that my son is in safe hands with them. In terms of my son's cognitive, social, and emotional development, I feel that the staff has made a huge contribution here. He always goes into and leaves nursery a happy boy.
I would happily recommend Shapes to any parent!

on hand and answer any questions/queries promptly. Our son is excited and happy to go to nursery and always comes out with a big smile. Highly recommended!

to me. It also has a soft play onsite, which is a great addition.
The ladies in the baby room who look after her are amazing! Picking her up at the end of the day and seeing her smile makes me know it was the right choice.
