Day Nurseries Owned by Banana Moon Day Nurseries in Essex

Amazing Nursery know my child better than me at times highly recommend any family to choose Banana Moon! Food is great and cater to all dietary needs of children. Always keep parents updated on how children are doing and we couldn't ask for more.

I couldn't recommend this nursery more highly. My child has only recently just started there and loves her time there. The updates throughout the day are fantastic and they provide a variety of activities to keep them entertained and learning. The staff are fantastic and always seem like they look forward to my child coming into nursery which is great.

We couldn't be happier with the nursery and the care our sons have received there. From day one, the staff have been incredibly kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child's happiness and development. Our boys have absolutely loved their time there and always come home smiling, talking excitedly about their day. The environment is welcoming, nurturing, and full of engaging activities that have helped them grow in confidence and independence. Knowing they were safe, supported, and truly cared for gave us complete peace of mind. We're so grateful to the whole team and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a wonderful start for their children.

Our daughter joined the nursery at the beginning of January. She settled within a couple of weeks thanks to the amazing staff at banana moon. She really seems to be enjoying herself as the team keep her busy with lots of different activities.

The variety of activities offered is impressive. From arts and crafts to storytime, music, and even outdoor play, there is always something happening. I appreciate how the nursery fosters both creativity and learning through structured activities, as well as plenty of free playtime. They also incorporate early learning concepts like colors, numbers, and shapes in a fun, interactive way. It's clear that the staff puts a lot of effort into planning these activities to help the children develop both socially and academically. I would recommend this nursery to parents

Banana moon are very innovative and creative when it comes to the activities for the children. They take safeguarding very seriously and their communication is the right balance- you're not bombarded with message after message but equally you are well informed. I love my child's keyworker and other staff there. They care and with nursery fees high everywhere it's nice to feel like a person and family and not just a number in the books. The location could be better but generally it's a great nursery.

Our daughter has been at Banana Moon since she was 9 months old. All the staff have been absolutely amazing, they helped her settle well and are very accommodating to all the children's needs. It's a pleasure to see the little updates on our app each day, with all the pictures of the activities and fun they have had. Absolutely amazing and definitely would recommend.

My little one truly enjoys this nursery. Since she started attending five days a week, her development has been remarkable. The practitioners are incredibly friendly, supportive, and always ready to help, creating a warm and positive environment.

They give a good report at the end of the day to let you know what they've been up to and how they've eaten and this is also updated on the parent app too, which is nice as it's very rare you get any major information from her!

Thank you for the smiles, encouragement, gentle guidance, and fun. You've given our child a wonderful start, and we couldn't be more grateful for everything you've done.

Thank you xx

My son has been with Banana Moon nursery for over 3 years. The staff have done a wonderful job and have been a good influence on his upbringing. The staff are great at calming him down on days he doesn't want to go in and he has also built a solid foundation of friends he see outisde of nursery. He will miss them all enormously. You guys are great.

My little boy has been at BM for around 5-6 weeks now, this was one of the first nursery's that me & my husband looked at and liked straight away, consequently me & my neighbour (as she started to also look for a nursery) looked at many others, we both decided on banana moon due to many factors including the kindness of staff, the continuation of the same staff, location, good vibes ect. I could go on, my little boy has been poorly recently and was admitted to hospital, i had phone calls to check in from BM, emails asking after him, this was something I didn't expect. Even upon his return to nursery the staff had been asking after him, this meant so much as it shows how much they care, he is settling nicely now and smiles for the girls when we go, he eats amazingly well there, and I love the app with updates showing me what he's done, in the short time he's been there, he is already learning new things and progressing nicely. I feel reassured when dropping him in, always have done.

We've had a wonderful experience with Banana Moon nursery. The learning environment has been fantastic and our son has grown so much both academically and socially. All staff are friendly and attentive and always willing to support the children and their families. A special thank you to the room leader/deputy manager, who has played such a big role in his development. Her warmth, patience and genuine care have made a huge difference. The nursery offers a great mix of learning and fun, and we're grateful for the nurturing environment they have provided for our son. The positive impact Banana Moon has had on his early years has been incredible - it has given him a strong, happy foundation as he prepares for school. Thank you!

Thank you banana moon

Great nursery and a great team!

The staff have always been very professional, caring, and supportive. It's been reassuring to know our child is in such a warm and nurturing environment. Thank you for everything!

Well done to all the staff at banana moon.

My daughter loves it there she is 16 months she is developing and learning new skills every week. Although she is only been there for 3 months only, she settled in straight away, She is absolutely looking forward to be there enjoying all the activities indoors and in the garden. she loves the food and just waves bye to me every time. Any concerns/ questions I had have been dealt with by the management straight away, all staff are lovely and receptive. You can definitely find more cost efective alternatives however this nursery is worth every penny.

My son has attended this nursery since he was 2 years old and I am astounded by the impact Banana Moon has had on him! He lives and breaths Banana moon, he adores the staff and constantly talks about his friends and his key person. We have discussions at home about planets, healthy eating and feelings, all of which he has picked up from nursery. The activities and resources available have enabled his imagination to develop beyond any recommended expectations. We as parents are kept fully up to date with his development, through daily handovers, the brilliant app which is updated daily and termly parent evenings. The care and support from all the team is, simply, amazing.
