Day Nurseries Owned by Greenstone Childcare in East Sussex

My baby is very happy to go Bunny Nursery and we love the atmosphere and care she receives. Staff are kind and responsive, and know her well. The setting is spacious yet homely, with lots to explore. Free flow to safe outdoor space, which is used for learning, pay and picnics is great.

Fantastic, idyllic location with lots of fresh air. The staff are friendly and caring with an easy system of communication and invoicing via the app. The staff are responsive and know my child very well, understanding her needs. The staff help to action what we are trying at home (potty training and nap durations). Given the location, we would like the children to take more walks and engage in outdoor pursuits like forest school. We would like to be informed of the plan for each day as staff are not always aware. We enjoy updates about our child as much as possible and would like clubs to return. We are generally happy with the nursery.

Our son is very happy at the nursery and enjoys his time there. Handled covid challenges very well. Beautiful countryside setting. Good varied food menu. There are a couple of very friendly members of staff that our son is very fond of. A reasonable number of photos and written updates on the family app in a typical week. Price is reasonable compared to other nurseries. That being said, there has not been a significant move away from the practices put in place during the pandemic, i.e. there has been no official return to parents being able to go inside the nursery, which is not the case for other local nurseries, so we feel that we and our son are missing out. No nursery events, such as at Christmas, or parents' evenings. Therefore, been little opportunity for parents and children to mingle. Staff turnover has been high, which is not specific to them, however, there have been instances where they have been slow to update us on new staff members starting.

Our son joined Bunny Run shortly before his first birthday. Leading up to it, we had spent months comparing nurseries in Tunbridge Wells, letting him stay for a couple of hours in each, hoping he would settle in. It is only when we discovered Bunny Run that all of us knew we had found the perfect environment for our son to thrive in. He instantly took to it during the trial and I watched him as he explored all the toys, aquarium and opened up to the teachers. It feels like a home from home environment, calm and mature and the carers, most of which seem to have been with the nursery for a long time, could not be more loving, patient and engaged. I watched our little boy over the past year and a half turn into a very confident, curious, creative and social little toddler, with great manners, kind and carefree and we have Bunny Run to thank for it as he spends 4 long 10 hour days with them. The food is excellent and varied and I am able to watch his progress via the app!

Initially, we sent our daughter to Bunny Run temporarily due to her previous nursery closing because of Covid. She has really flourished there and grown in confidence and is now staying permanently. She goes in happily, spends plenty of time outdoors and is always beaming when we collect her. The nursery is in a lovely rural setting. We are regularly kept up to date on the Family app so we can discuss with her what's she has been up to on the route home.

Recently moved to the area and this nursery was the thing I was most excited about for the move. I love the drive there, through stunning countryside; when you come out of the nursery, the view over fields, woods, horses, is breathtaking; but most importantly the people are fantastic - everyone from the staff that work with the kids, management, the owner. Despite having a difficult situation and not being able to give a set start date, they were so understanding and flexible. The educational activities are well thought out, they focus on different topics each week. And I love that they walk the kids over to the nearby forest when they can. But the best review comes from my daughter when I pick her up who is always so happy.

I can not fault this nursery and the staff. I highly recommend!

I really appreciate nappies, creams, wipes and sun creams being supplied and included within the fees. It saves a lot of extra stress and daily organisation which means I have one less thing to worry about.

My daughter loves Bunny Run, she can be a bit shy but since joining, she has really become a social butterfly. Every day she comes home talking about what she has been up to or the walks they have been on to see the animals. The nursery is set in the heart of the countryside and all of the staff are so warm and welcoming. This is such a lovely nursery and I can't recommend it enough!

We absolutely love Bunny Run Nursery. Our two sons both go there and our oldest has been there for over two years. The staff are so caring and professional and our sons have built such a strong rapport with them. What I love most about the nursery is the family feel, it feels so much more homely than some of the bigger, more commercial nurseries. It also is in a beautiful rural setting and the boys love going out walking in the woods. I'd highly recommend it.

The nursery are always organising fun activities for the children to give them the chance to explore and learn. They work in partnership with parents and genuinely care about the children they look after.

We are so happy we chose Bunny Run Nursery for our daughter as she has really blossomed here. The nursery is set on the edge of the beautiful countryside so the children can go on safe, supervised walks to see horses and sheep, which we often get reports about. There are lots of fun educational activities, themed weeks (like this week’s one on eating healthily), cookery, Forest School, gardening, dressing-up, water play etc. The children are provided with a varied, nutritional menu each day including a hot meal at lunchtime. The nursery has excellent, approachable management which has dealt with the covid-19 situation extremely professionally. Parents evenings are held on a regular basis and the nursery is very good at informing parents of current activities, feedback progress and any areas of concern. All the staff are positive and full of fun and the love, care and warmth shown to children at the nursery is second to none.

I was nervous to send my four-year-old daughter back to nursery after the lockdown and the Bunny Run was a different nursery to the one she had attended. I couldn’t believe how quickly she settled in. The staff couldn’t be nicer greeting her with a warm smile every morning and I love hearing about all the new friends she has made and the activities they get up to. I love being able to see how they are getting on throughout the day with the Famly App. I would definitely recommend the Bunny Run to anyone looking to place their child there.

Our firstborn son joined the Bunny Run Nursery a month before lockdown and is now back having a great time. What made me choose this nursery was that my son loves the outdoors and to be creative, and it is exactly what he is getting there. The staff are warm-hearted and friendly and have great attention to detail when creating exciting, educational and fun activities for the children. I received a lot of assurances and support through the settling in period too, which can be emotionally very challenging for both child and parents.

Our daughter has been at Bunny Run for a little over a year, in which time friends have been made and much joy had by her. I am so very impressed with the level of activity and attention to such that is received. The staff are wonderful and nothing seems too much; a great place for our daughter to learn such key early skills and move through milestones.
