Day Nurseries Owned by Sussex Community NHS Foundation Trust in East Sussex

The outside space is faultless now, the organisation and ease of contacting the staff alongside the daily reports and photos are always gratefully received.

Everyone at Butterfly are so kind, welcoming and will always try and help with any needs or enquiries that I have. I have now put my 1 year old into the same nursery due to how much the staff at butterfly care about the children.

The garden and play area is great, education provided was brilliant and care was fantastic

The hilltop nursery is a special place for my grandson. He has been going there for nearly two years come October 2023. Lately, all the Hilltop staff have been extra supportive and informative, with emergency family issues of mine lately, they have stepped up and gone above and beyond in there professional approach, my grandson has to go too extra sessions at the nursery at the moment , and just by him going in, with a spring in his step every morning, says enough in his actions of going in with not a care in the world....we salute you Hilltop nursery. Thank you very much indeed.

We've been at the nursery for about a month, and so far it's been a really positive experience. My son loves going. His key person, is warm and caring. The whole team is supportive, and communication is fast and clear. The environment is safe, well-organized, and the outdoor space is especially great. We're very happy so far!

My daughter has been attending here since February 2025 she settled so well she loves all the staff. She comes back really happy and she's always talking about nursery when she's at home. I'm so glad I managed to get her a place here the staff are really friendly and helpful and I don't feel like I have to worry when my daughter is there I really recommend Hilltop Nursery to everyone. It's a lovely place to be.

Both my son and daughter have attended Butterfly with my daughter currently still attending. My son loved it at Butterfly and that was 5 years ago and my daughter who has attended since around 10 months also adores it there. She cannot wait to go to nursery and always has a great time. She loves getting messy and Butterfly has a great range of outdoor space which includes mud and puddles which she loves. She loves the food and always asks for more! Every day is fun for her at Butterfly.

My son has been going to Butterfly Nursery since he was 11 months old and I am very please with the care he has received. He enjoys his time at Butterfly Nursery and has learnt so much since joining. Thanks to the staff members who spend lots of time nourishing and supporting his development and care for him like their own. I also enjoy getting regular updates from the app and feedback at the end of each day. Lastly the range of hot meals they receive is great! Thank you Butterfly!

Wonderful Nursery Experience. Both of my children have attended Butterfly Nursery, and they truly enjoyed their time there, often sharing positive stories about their day. The staff members are friendly and welcoming. Even though my children are picky eaters at home, they seem to try and enjoy a variety of foods at nursery. The nursery offers engaging activities, and my boys frequently come home with impressive art projects. Communication with the managers and staff is excellent; they are always available to address my questions, no matter how big or small. Overall, I am very satisfied with my choice of nursery for my boys, as I believe it has supported their growth into confident children, ready for the next step at school.

My daughter has absolutely loved her time at butterfly nursery. All of the staff are consistently welcoming and always greet us with a smile. They are informative with what the children have been doing and you get regular updates, which are lovely to see, on the app. My daughter will miss the nursery very much. I would recommend this nursery very highly

Both my daughters attended butterfly nursery over the years they have settled very well and the staff have been so friendly I really reccomend this nursery thanks for your support over the years......!

My child is always positive about his day and his experiences with the different nursery workers. He is able to recite lots of songs and talks about the toys he's played with and the books he's read. He is always happy, cheerful and very comfortable going in every morning. We're kept well informed of any bumps and bruises he might get. We're very pleased to have found Butterfly nursery.

Excellent nursery. My daughter joined a few months ago after her previous nursery was suspended. She absolutely loves Butterfly Nursery and is in the preschool group and still has another year to go as not quite of the age for school. We get regular updates, lots of photos, and information about what's happening in the nursery. She's learnt so much in a short period of time and recognising letter sounds and numbers with ease. staff have been incredible, very caring, and affectionate. Absolutely no problems whatsoever, and my daughter loves going and asks to go on her days that she's not due to be in!

Absolutely brilliant nursery. Caring staff, well managed, our children have been so happy there, can't ask for any more and they have learnt so much. Wonderful outdoor space, especially love that the kids get to play in the mud and they are so happy about it!

Our child has the absolute best time here. She's always rushing us out of the house to get to nursery. The food looks great. The staff are all so friendly. Even after a couple of years, she's still loving it! Would definitely recommend.

The staff at butterfly nursery are always smiley, warm and supportive. Management are friendly and approachable with quick response times to questions. I enjoy receiving snapshot updates of my son's time at nursery. My son loves being part of the Butterfly Nursery family, he talks fondly of the staff and his friends there. I feel he is safe and very well cared for.

Both my children, aged almost 4 and almost 1, currently attend Hilltop Nursery. My son who has been going for 2 years absolutely loves going here and asks "Is it nursery today?" most days! My daughter who started when she was 9 months has settled in well, all the staff have been so nurturing and adaptive to both their needs. We get frequent updates on how they have been and lots of pictures. Communication between the staff and myself has been excellent both in person or via the app. All the staff here are fantastic and I do not hesitate to leave my children with them. They spend lots of time outside whatever the weather and they love getting muddy and learning through messy outdoor play! I would 100% recommend this nursery- It is fantastic and I will be sad when the nursery days are over.

Both my children attend Butterfly Nursery. My daughter started to go from ten months old, which despite my son already attending I was worried about due to her being under one year. The baby room is so nurturing and my daughter settled really well. All staff form strong bonds with your children and are really cared for. My son has made some great friendships and I have seen him come on leaps and bounds in his development at Butterfly. Butterfly has a fantastic outside space and children have the opportunity to spend time outside learning and exploring. Key workers have been so fantastic at developing my children and supporting their learning. Thank you all so much for what you do!

Both my children have gone to Butterfly Nursery and we have had the most positive amazing experience with them. They have supported both my girls and the staff are so friendly and kind. A very happy mother indeed.

Hilltop nursery is a wonderful nursery. Friendly and professional staff who are always happy to help and chat about the little ones. The children are kept busy with lots of fun and educational activities and have free-flow access to a lovely garden. Our little boy really enjoys his time at Hilltops.
