Day Nurseries Owned by Banana Moon Day Nurseries in Oxfordshire

My little boy started at Banana Moon in March 2026. Initially I was quite apprehensive as he had spent the first 15 months of his life with just family members every day as we waited a long time to get him a place in another nursery. I applied for him to go to Banana Moon only two months before his start date and they were able to accept him and give me a start date pretty much straight away. He now goes two days a week 8am-6pm and absolutely loves it. He has an incredible bond with his key worker Esme who is always fantastic at praising him and making me feel comfortable after leaving him at the end of the day. The app that they use is incredible. They keep you updated with Photos regularly and you get a diary to show you what your child is doing through throughout the day, it can become quite an obsession :) All of the team at Banana Moon are very welcoming and nothing is ever too much of a hassle for them. I trust them religiously with my little boy. 100% recommend!

Couldn't recommend enough!

It's a huge relief to know she is so well looked after. She loves the food, and the variety of daily activities keeps her thoroughly engaged. By the time we pick her up, she's happily exhausted from a full day of play. We couldn't ask for a better environment for her.

My little one absolutely loves Banana Moon. Sarah and the team are amazing and really do go above and beyond. From having extra settling sessions to help with the transition, to seeing her now, so confident, happy and loving her time there, it's brilliant. She has come on so much since being at nursery I can't believe it! I would definitely recommend the nursery to anyone looking in the area. There's a good mix of being inside and outside whatever the weather, great variety of foods, lots of play and activities that really support development, and such a lovely group of staff in each room. I've also been so impressed by how the nursery goes out of its way to engage with the parents and community, offering additional events like wreath making at Christmas, which was a lovely chance to meet other mums.

The management is excellent and communication is great with daily updates on what the kids are up to along with photos. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Banana Moon Chipping Norton.

Would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. The nursery workers and management are all great and very supportive. They made us feel so confident leaving our child with them from the start. They take children's individual needs seriously and record everything so we can see what they have done/ eaten/ slept etc. our son really enjoys the time he spends at the nursery, does such a variety of activities and eats very well

- clean and modern environment

The team at Chipping Norton have made my daughters time at nursery incredibly supportive and nurturing. They are very proactive with tackling any concerns or questions you may have and the management team are always there to support you and lend an ear. My daughter is nearly 3 and has been at the nursery since she was 8months old and I couldn't have asked for a better start for her, the range of activities and learning opportunities are great and they also have a big community drive

The team are brilliant at updating the app with the days events along with pictures so we can check in anytime to see what she's up to. Special thanks to her key persons Chloe and Mia.

I could not recommend this nursery enough from daily updates to trying different foods to the hand overs, Sarah and the girls really do go above and beyond. Especially recently with my son having recent stays at hospital, they have reassured us, made us laugh and made us feel at ease. My son loves his nursery days and we have noticed that he has come on leaps and bounds just from learning at nursery. I will be very sad in the years to come when he has to leave to attend school.

Sarah and her team always go above and beyond. My son had a bit of tricky start, and at times struggled to settle but has since started to really enjoying going to nursery. This is down to the supportive, creative staff and the energy and enthusiasm that they dedicate every day, to both children and parents. The regular stay and play sessions are fantastic, as well as the general positivity and regular communication of the whole team.

I feel the staff at Banana Moon are dedicated to child development, though most importantly, to fun and happiness of our babies. for that, I am so grateful to have found this nursery. I feel assured each day I drop my daughter off that her day will be full of love and fun.

We trust our daughter's care 100% to the team at Banana Moon - such amazing, caring, lovely people! Thank you so much

Absolutely love the nursery and staff. They are incredible and our son loves coming in to nursery and the staff support us so well as a family.

We would highly recommend Banana Moon in Chipping Norton.

Amazing nursery which is very well-run by superb management who are always friendly and helpful. The staff are very caring and take really good care of the children. There is always a wide range of fun activities for the children and I love the daily diary which is informative and lets you know what your child has been doing, including photographs which are always very much appreciated, the diary from babymoons is great as you get a personalised update on your child. We travel 25 miles round trip to get our children to Banana Moon Day Nursery and it is well worth the journey. For anyone considering a nursery, I would definitely contact Banana Moon. I can't recommend it highly enough.

My child has been at Banana Moon Day Nursery Chipping Norton since September and has settled in really well. There are regular staff that work in each room and this has really helped with the settling in process. We get regular daily updates about activities and food. They also upload pictures to the app so we can see what they have been up to. I feel assured that my child is well cared for and looked after during the day. They offer a good variety of healthy food and snacks and do lots of fun and interesting activities. My child really enjoys going to nursery and has a good relationship with the staff in her room.

My daughter has been at Banana Moon Day Nursery Chipping Norton since age 1 and has really thrived. All rooms have been so caring but also focused on progression. The staff are all absolutely lovely and a great blend of loving and authoritative! The nursery is really clean and has great facilities and equipment. Shout out to the chef who even manages to get the kids to enjoy Japanese rice and fish cakes!

We love hearing about the variety of activities they've been up to during the day and seeing photos on the app. The menus are varied and they've catered easily for my child's allergy.

This gives this mama peace of mind, I couldn't have asked for a better daycare!
