Day Nurseries Owned by Charnwood Nursery & Pre-school Group

I send my 2-year-old to this nursery and my 5-year-old used to attend here. The team and incredible and very caring. The managers are fantastic and supportive. They do lots of activities and take your kids out often. The nursery are also very flexible and will always help you with any queries if needed. I would highly recommend Charnwood Nursery!

My twins attend Charnwood Nursery and have done so since 2023, they are almost 3 years old. They absolutely love it there and learn so much. I have seen them come on leaps and bounds when it comes to words, numbers, counting, social skills, play, and discipline. I can't fault the staff, they really do care and are wonderful with the children. I wasn't after education when I chose a nursery, I wanted the twins to be kids and enjoy playing, getting messy, exploring, building relationships, and having fun at that age - and Charnwood hasn't disappointed.

My son attended this nursery for nearly 2 years and had an amazing time there. They are child-led instead of business-led, unlike other nurseries we visited which really shows in their interactions with the children. My son especially loved the forest trips, weekly football lessons, trips to the library and local walks. The hours suited us great and he became really attached to the workers. They do a variety of daily activities and lots of outdoor time which is perfect for this age. I always felt he was safe and cared for here. Thank you to all the wonderful staff!

Charnwood Nursery & Pre-School is such an amazing nursery! The staff are all so friendly and cheerful and genuinely care about our children. I love the fact that they always go that little bit extra. They do things around the community to help bring some joy to others, through the children. Both of my boys go there and they both settled in really quickly and easily and are always happy to go there. Thank you to you all for all your hard work and dedication!

We were recommended this nursery by few parents and when we went to visit (while pregnant) we knew this was the right nursery for our child. We have been extremely pleased with the nursery and always recommend it, to new parents. Our child loves going to nursery and the staff look after her very well. The staff are always happy and willing to help.

In the past year they have also excelled themselves in uncertain times as well. A fantastic nursery.

It’s hard to know where to start when reviewing this nursery. Put simply, it’s amazing. We stumbled on it when our previous one closed with no notice during the pandemic and we urgently needed an alternative. From the minute we got in touch to see if they could offer us a place, they’ve been brilliant. The luckiest change in the world! My daughter (then 3, now 4) is thriving in their care. And boy do they care! The staff are really focused on my little girl’s needs and encourage her individuality. We get great communications in person at drop off/pick up and through the app. The trips they go on and the things they help the children experience are fantastic. The nursery feels very much part of the local community - from taking the children to sing to care home residents through the window at the height of pandemic, to chatting to shop owners on the way to the nearby park. I can't thank all the staff enough for what they do. They’re brilliant!

Not sure where to begin with Charnwood Nursery & Pre-School. My son attended here for preschool and absolutely loved it, he was always out, either at forest school or going to local parks, even temples during Diwali. He was so happy at this setting. Now my very clingy daughter attends and has settled in so well, she talks about it all the time, especially collecting eggs from chickens to make omelettes last week. It is such a fun-filled setting, so happy both my children were able to attend.

Changing nursery to Charnwood Nursery & Pre-School was the best decision we made for our sons with special education needs. Thank you Charnwood, you do an amazing job.

The best decision we made hands down, the staff are just amazing, loving and caring to all the children. I'm always relaxed once the kids have been dropped off there as they just take care of the all kids like they are their own.

This is a phenomenal nursery! I cried tears of joy when I visited before enrolling my firstborn, as I knew in my heart that the team would nurture and support her better than I could do myself, and I don’t say that lightly! Apart from this team, there is no one who can cater for my 4-year-old and 12-month-old children’s needs better than myself and my husband. My daughter has been thriving here for over 3 years, and my son for 2 weeks. In his case, I am gob-smacked by the measures the nursery have put in place to adapt their policies in order to support a generation of anti-social lockdown babies. My son has only seen a handful of people in the flesh in his lifetime, and like most lockdown babies, he’s missed out on baby sensory/playgroups. The thought of leaving him at the nursery after only 1 hour of socially distanced settling in, terrified me. Recently, Charnwood Nursery & Pre-School intuitively changed their policy to allow multiple short settling-in sessions with an accompanying parent, which I am grateful for.

The best nursery around! From the first day I visited the nursery, I knew my daughter would love it, the staff are so friendly and welcoming, they can’t do enough for you. I feel relaxed that my daughter is being looked after so well. Her key worker is amazing and keeps me up to date with everything she does throughout the day, they do so many fun activities with the children. Most importantly my daughter loves going. I would and have recommended this nursery to other people. Overall amazing!

My son has been going here for a few months now. We are so impressed with how much he has developed since joining the nursery. The staff have gone above and beyond to help him settle. They are always taking the kids out. They really make an effort to learn the kids' interests and include them in their play and activities at the nursery. Management are also really helpful and flexible. Dropping off and picking up is really easy and smooth. The interaction between staff and parents is great and I feel reassured with all the pictures and wow moment updates.

Great nursery with lovely staff who are friendly, welcoming and supportive. They truly take time to understand each child better and try to incorporate their interest into activities. My little one loves exploring the forest, trips to the park and seeing the chickens on site! There's always something different happening each day to keep the children entertained but some days my little one just needs cuddles and knowing how patient the staff are with her, puts my mind at ease. It's great to see her happy and coming home with a smile.

Sending my son to Charnwood Nursery & Pre-School has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. The staff genuinely care about the well being of my son (one time, my son was ill and unable to go to the nursery and his key worker called me everyday to find out how he was). They also do a variety of activities and teach so many life skills to the children. My son is thriving at the nursery. I would highly recommend it.

I cannot say enough positive things about this nursery, my daughter loves going and it's lovely to see her so happy and settled. Her speech has also developed so much in the time that she has been here. I also love the fact that they go on outings almost every day and that they have animals there to interact with. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone looking for their child.

Excellent staff and facilities. Great communication between staff and parents. Multiple learning activities throughout the week which change every week that my children thoroughly enjoy and develop from. Outdoor trips to shops and into nature to really give the children the best experience to learn. Couldn't recommend them any more. Highly rate them and I will be sad when they have to leave.

Brilliant staff team, caring and compassionate. Individuality promoted. Homely feel. The staff are really supportive and accommodating. Handovers are very thorough. Large setting with lots of outdoor space.

The staff, facilities, excursions and overall ethos are fantastic. My girls have blossomed with the care, attention and encouragement from the staff here. They are always accommodating, trustworthy and most importantly tailor and listen to the children and their parents' views, suggestions and general feedback. Thank you for giving them the best start in life.

This is the only nursery I came across that take children to parks, care homes and do forest school. My son loves the outdoors and messy play and he gets all of these in this nursery. The staff are very welcoming and genuinely care for the children. Management also look after parents, as much as they can, with social distancing and treating us to hot drinks and snacks.
