The staff at this nursery are wonderful and take huge care of the children and invest the time to really get to know them individually.
My son has been at Banana Moon Harbury for just over 6 months and really enjoys going in each day. It is very clear he is provided with a wide range of healthy food
to try! The staff are also very good at getting the children outdoors in the fresh air as much as possible (weather permitting).
Management are prompt and very proactive in their communication style which really helps busy, working parents. They always attempt to be flexible where possible and consistently approach questions from a place of care and understanding. This was something that was highlighted when I looked round the nursery and it is very clear that they live by this ethos. They also do not put too much pressure on parents my minimising the number of stay and plays, fancy dress occasions and other extra curricular activities which avoids added stress.
Reply from Lucy Nealon, Owner at Banana Moon Day Nursery HarburyAs a family run nursery we try to respect every child and their needs are different, as are every parent/carer. Although we are highly regulated for a reason and have policies for everything, we try to avoid being 'computer says no', particularly when it comes to supporting our families. I am therefore delighted to hear that this has been your experience. Thank you for taking the time to write a review

My son has now been at Banana Moon in Hatton for over a year and he loves it! The staff make a huge effort to put on multiple different activities each day and stimulate and support learning through different means, and the outdoor space and forest school is incredible. They spend time outside every
day to explore nature, play on bikes, and in the mud kitchen etc.
The staff are wonderful - my son has built brilliant connections with all the staff and he feels comfortable and secure with them which is great to see.
Management are visible, available, approachable and always greet me personally with a big smile on their faces.
There are lots of opportunities for parents to come and join in the fun such as stay and plays and Mother's and Father's Day events, and these are always so well run.
A big thank you to Banana Moon Hatton for everything you do!

Wow!!
The staff, resources and the compassion of the staff is amazing. Always approachable and knowledgable.
We have only been attending a couple of months but they are amazing.
Baby room staff are amazing. They have ensured my little one has settled right in. My little one loves the outdoors
and role play.
Always getting updates and photos on the app an always prompt responses on the app throughout the day.
I only wish this was open sooner!

Banana Moon Hatton is such a lovely place for children to attend. The setting is lovely with lots of space in the different rooms. The outdoor paddock area is exceptional and allows the children to explore freely and safely. Our son loves being outside, so we are thrilled to see updates of the children
outside so frequently - come rain or shine! Starting just after his 1st Birthday he did take time to settle, but the staff were very supportive towards both him and myself (given this being my first experience of my child at nursery). 18 months on, he really enjoys nursery, and we have seen developmental changes including his speech and interaction with children positively improve thanks to his time at Banana Moon.

Our little boy started in the baby room 4 weeks ago, and we honestly couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery.
From the very beginning, the settling in sessions were absolutely brilliant. The staff took so much time and care to make sure he felt comfortable, safe, and happy. They were incredibly
supportive not just with him, but myself too which made such a difference during those first few days.
The team in the baby room are amazing! Warm, attentive, and genuinely caring. It's clear they truly love what they do. We get regular updates on the app and can see how much effort they put into planning activities that support his development while making it fun.
It's such a relief dropping him off each day knowing he's in such safe hands. In just 4 weeks we've already seen him grow so much.
We're so grateful to the whole team and would highly recommend this nursery to anyone!

We've been really happy with how the team have helped our 2 year old settle in to a new nursery. We love how much outdoor time the children have, even in the rain, and are impressed by the nutritious meals on offer. The communication has been great both in person and via the app and the management team
are accessible and approachable.

Both of my children have and attend Bannana moon Hatton and I cannot recommend enough. The staff are very friendly and have a fabulous rapport with my child and with me.
My son has blossomed the past 2 years he has attended and loves going to nursery. The outdoor space and forest school are his favourites.
The daily updates on the apps and golden moments about his progression allow me to feel confident he is being well looked after.
My daughter previously attended before starting school and still talks about how much she misses it.
The learning and development of this nursery has given both children a fantastic start to learning and creating friendships

I currently have 2 children at this nursery and can only say hugely positive things. We moved to the area last August so have previously experienced another nursery which now can't even compare to Banana Moon. The staff are wonderful, they clearly know my children so well. The communication is amazing,
I know everything about their days and can totally relax that they are in safe hands. The main thing that sold us on the nursery was the outside space. My two are very outdoorsy and love to be active - they get out into the fresh air multiple times a day and even attend Forest School. They do ballet and football weekly which is so special.
Can't recommend this nursery enough (this is coming from an early years teacher and SENDCo)

My son has just started at Banana Moon, he has had a hard time adjusting to the new change but the lovely people who work in his room and the managers have made the transition so much easier! He always leaves with a smile on his face and saying he's had a fun day.
Everyone makes a huge effort to make
sure he is comfortable and happy.
His key worker and others in the room have gone above and beyond to make a connection with him.
He had a poorly day at nursery and they went out of their way to make sure he was taken care of and happy until we could get to him.
Overall we've had such a positive experience so far!
Thank you Banana Moon !

Banana Moon has been such a special place for our daughter. It has been a real joy to watch her grow in confidence, independence and happiness, supported every step of the way by a team who genuinely care. Her key workers take the time to truly understand her as an individual, celebrating her strengths
and gently supporting her development where needed.
The outdoor space initially stood out to us when choosing a nursery and continues to impress. It's thoughtfully designed and purposefully used for both learning and play, giving the children variety, freedom and structure in equal measure.
Communication is excellent, with regular app updates throughout the day and reassuring 1-to-1 handovers at pick-up. The varied meals are fantastic (often I'm jealous!) and encourage the children to explore and enjoy new foods.
We feel completely confident in the care she receives and are so grateful to the whole team.

It feels like such a community and we appreciate the efforts staff go to organise events for the children and families. 100% reccomend .

My child has been attending Banana Moon Hatton since November 2024. I get regular updates through the nursery app and always get a detailed handover at the end of the day. My child's allergy has been taken seriously which puts me at ease when my child is at nursery. Would totally recommend Banana Moon
Hatton and the management team are also really welcoming!
Thank you so much Team.

Run with integrity, passion and the main focus being the children!
Our son spent the first 18 months of his life with us every single day and as an only child, we were worried how that might effect his attachment with other children and adults. The team at Banana Moon excel in every single way from
ensuring each child is met every morning with a welcome smile and a warm hug to constantly changing activities daily designed to nurture and help each child develop individually. We receive several daily updates with photos, excellent communication from all the team whether in-person or over the app and you can just tell that this is a family, not just a business.
We can't recommend this nursery enough and genuinely from a parent who enquired, researched and visited every nursery in the area; Banana Moon Day Nursery is heads and shoulders above all the rest. Thank you so much for doing an amazing job at helping with a pivotal point in our son's journey!
Reply from Joann Ramsay, Manager at Banana Moon Day Nursery Baddesley EnsorThank you so much for your kind words.

Banana Moon Hatton has been part of our family since January 2019 when my oldest started and now my youngest is in pre school. It is a wonderful nursery in a beautiful rural setting. You'd find it hard to find a nursery with a better outside space or with better outside provision. Activities are focused
around children's interests and this means children are super engaged and happy in their play. The staff are all friendly and approachable and go out of their way to give 100% to the children in their care. I'll really miss the setting when my daughter graduates this summer.

We couldn't be happier with Banana Moon Hatton. Our son has been attending since he turned 1 (he's now 19 months) and settled in really well. He loves it there and is always kept busy, and we've seen such amazing development since he started.
The staff are incredibly friendly and have clearly taken
the time to get to know him, which is so reassuring as they notice if anything is amiss. We also love the app updates and photos throughout the day, and our son enjoys looking back at them. Handover at pick-up is always great too, which has been especially reassuring for us as first-time parents.
He often comes home singing songs he's learnt and loves being outside and doing messy play. We've had a completely positive experience and would 100% recommend. We're expecting baby number 2 and have no doubts we'll be sending them here too.

Excellent place. We had our baby there from 6 months old and the care was amazing. You get frequent updates via the app. Communication is great with the nursery and would highly recommend. Photo updates throughout the week with little ones playing with their nursery friends. I often pick my child up

What a wonderful nursery! Both my daughter and son have been at Banana Moon and both have thrived here! The paddock is a wonderful outdoor space and the staff in all of the rooms are kind, compassionate, nurturing and supportive.
My youngest son is now in Pre School and despite sometimes feeling hesitate
about going in, he always leaves saying how much of a good day he has had. There are always a fantastic range of opportunities for him to get involved with and the staff use their creativity in a fantastic way in order to keep the children engaged.
We have been very happy with the care and compassion that both of my children have received during their time at Banana Moon and both have thrived enormously during their time there. A huge thank you to staff who I feel go above and beyond.
