All the girls at Pencoed show great care and attention to the children. My daughter loves going and always has a great time when there. Especially Ffion and Mali who she talks about at home. The girls do great activities with the children and we love seeing what she gets up to through out the day via the app.
Cannot fault the love, care and dedication of this team over the last few weeks. From staff working tirelessly to keep children comfortable in the recent heatwave, managing changes to my child's needs and always answering the door with a smile. Its truly a magical place!

We are very happy with the care and service they provide. The staff have played a huge part in my son's development, and we really appreciate the regular updates throughout the day. They are always honest about how he has been, whether he has had a great day or found something challenging, which we value. They are also very flexible when we need to swap days because of holidays and are always happy to answer any questions we have. One thing that stands out is how much they have helped teach Kaito important life skills. They have been instrumental in teaching him to be kind, share with others, listen, take turns and develop good manners. It's lovely to see these skills growing every day. I also love that my son comes home singing new songs and excited to show us what he has learned at nursery. It's wonderful to see how much he enjoys learning and how happy he is to attend each day.
We are incredibly grateful to all the staff for their care, support and dedication.

My daughter has been attending SELCA for nearly 4 months, as a first time mum of a very clingy, not overly confident child who'd never been left with anyone before for longer than an hour, I was extremely nervous about putting her in nursery. The staff have been absolutely brilliant with her, they gave her the support and care she needed to feel safe and comfortable until she fully settled in, sending pictures and app updates through the day so we as nervous parents could see how she was doing. She absolutely loves going to nursery and has come such a long way in her confidence and development since starting. A lot of thought and effort clearly goes into the daily activities and celebrating certain events the staff plan for the children.
A special shout out and thank you to Abbie, Erin and Darcy who've been absolutely amazing!

The staff have been wonderful with my daughter but they're being extra brilliant and patient now that she's potty training. It's such a weight of our mind that we can leave her and know that she's being looked after by kind and knowledgeable professionals. Thank you!

Selca offer a fantastic wraparound service for our children's primary school. The staff are friendly and approachable and have built lovely relationships. They offer a wide range of educational activities for my nursery aged son and their holiday club also provides fun experiences for both.

The family app is updated throughout the day with pictures and information about how his day is going. Which we love!
Fantastic setting which has been outstanding for our first child. The staff are very friendly and always willing to help in any way. They have helped our son settle in quickly and he absolutely loves it there.
