Following on from parents evening on Friday 6th March. I can honestly say that choosing Ducklings nursery for my daughter was the best decision her dad and I have ever made. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, they have my daughter's best interest at heart and are continually helping her learn and
grow. Thank you everyone who works there and we will recommend and have recommended this nursery to family and friends.

Both of my children have had the pleasure of attending Ducklings for two years each and we could not have had a better experience with not only the staff and the facilities but also and more so the development of our babies. Our two, have built bonds with other children, the staff, and the space within
which they have had their communication and practical skills nurtured. As most parents feel, my biggest fear was leaving my children away from home. Rest assured that fear and anxiety was soon put at ease. Now that my kids are in primary school, I look back at nothing but fond memories and the most heartfelt thanks to the Ducklings team.
Reply from Medusa Sojourn, Owner at Ducklings Private Nursery SandiacreThank you so much for your kind review and those lovely words.

My daughter moved to Ducklings when her existing nursery closed, the staff have made her so welcome, and we have been so impressed by how quickly she settled. She loves being at Ducklings and has told me she wouldn't want to go to the broken nursery and she likes the new one. She has made lots of friends,
and we are so happy with her progress and also the amount of work the staff put in to get them school ready - thank you.

Our little boy has always loved Ducklings Nursery. The staff are always so nice, they are also extremely transparent and honest. They are not afraid to highlight concerns or give you an honest reflection of how the day has gone. It's refreshing and important to have that approach. Thank you for everything.

My daughter loves coming to Ducklings Nursery, she has made lots of friends here. She loves exploring the activities set up for the day, from painting to building robots, learning about owls and different types of transport, reading and singing nursery rhymes. Her absolute favourite is the water tray,
which one day she had decided to sit in!
She also enjoys exploring outside, playing on the pirate ship and making mud pies in the mud kitchen.
The children are also taken on little trips out of the nursery, to the local park, library and a local care home.
The staff are lovely, welcoming and friendly and are happy to help with any concerns.
The nursery is currently undergoing a complete renovation and will look amazing when it's complete, it's a shame that my daughter will be starting school soon and miss it.

My child has been coming here since last year, this is my favourite nursery (older two went to different ones). I couldn’t ask for kinder people towards all of my children and myself, the nursery is informative about anything I want to know and they have really gone the extra mile for me. My child always
enjoys coming to nursery and that makes such a difference, I’m confident in the workers here that they know my child and what she needs.

Both of my girls go to this nursery and one is soon to leave. The service that has been provided here is excellent!
We have loved how the team has helped my kids grow and create friendships.
It'll be sad when both of mine leave for school but it's been an amazing journey and I'm thankful the team

Great nursery, with great staff. Really helped my child settle in fast. Always kept up to date with what is happening with a good run down of how my child has been during the day. Really excited about the new refurbishments! Really couldn't recommend this nursery enough!

Our little boy started nursery at Ducklings in May so I could return to work after maternity leave. As all mamas know it is a very anxious time when they first start nursery and you visit a few nurseries to make sure you pick the right one for them and I am so happy with our decision! He comes back
so happy and is excited to go back. The girls have been wonderful and the pictures they send me on the app make my day! I’m always checking the app when I’m at work and it gives me peace of mind when I see pictures of his little face. A big thank you to all the staff at Ducklings.

My daughter began her nursery journey aged three in February 2021 and is due to be leaving in August 2022. During her time with the nursery, her overall development has been amazing. She has developed her confidence and her personal skills and personality has blossomed. The staff have been so supportive
in aiding her development and always giving feedback on collection and supportive when there have been any concerns.

My daughter has special needs and been attending Ducklings since July 2018 and has blossomed since being there. We were faced with so many nurseries that appeared unwilling to accept our daughter but Ducklings embraced her. They have such an inclusive not only within the nursery but in the local community
too, they attend a local nursing home where the children and residents sing play games and interact with each other. The nursery provides a nurturing and safe environment. We can’t speak highly enough of the amazing staff and will be sorry when my daughter leaves to go to school.

My daughter loves coming to nursery, she has been there since 8 months old. The staff are brilliant and always understand my child's needs. The nursery management are brilliant - always able to help out where they can, however, the new owner can be rude and unwelcoming and seems more money centred than
child-focused.
The nursery itself is looking quite tired now and could do with some refurbishment in places, but this does not affect the quality of care given by the staff - cannot praise them enough for all they do.
The only criticism I could give if I had too, would be communication with regards to events, we always seem to find out too late that something is happening eg photo day but my child only goes once a week so perhaps this is why.
