Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Mandy D (Mother of Child) published on 5 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As a first time mum, I was nervous about leaving my child. The first few weeks at nursery were challenging but the team was very accommodating and understanding. I appreciated this and they made me feel at ease leaving my daughter with them. They communicated well using the app approach and also phone calls when necessary. Even during transition to a new room, they helped her to settle as this was difficult for her.

The new room welcomed her and helped her develop and settled well. She is a happy child thanks to both teams. I have not had any problems or concerns. I'm glad I picked Play2learn nursery. I hope my daughter continues being happy. Thank you lovely team for your hard work.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from T L (Mother of Child) published on 1 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We only joined Play2Learn in December, but our little boy settled in so quickly and absolutely loves his time there. The team are so nurturing, caring and brilliant at communicating with us as parents.

They really went over and above for his 2nd birthday, which meant so much to us and made his day extra special. We are so thankful to have found P2L - it makes it so much easier leaving him knowing how loved, happy and well cared for he is every single day.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Mercy A (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I cannot recommend Play 2 Learn day Nusery highly enough. My daughter has been here for 2years now, and the care has been exceptional, especially regarding her allergies.

As a parent of a child with severe allergies, I was anxious about nursery. From day one, the team put my mind at ease. Their allergy protocols are thorough, staff double-check every ingredient, and meals are supervised with real care. There hasn't been a single incident, and I've never felt worried leaving her.

Communication is excellent. I get daily updates on meals, activities, and mood through their app, plus quick responses if I have questions. The staff truly know and love the children. My daughter runs in happy each morning and comes home settled and smiling.

The nursery is clean, safe, and full of age-appropriate activities that have boosted her confidence and development. Her key workers are consistent, patient, and attentive, and the whole team treats the children like their own.

I highly recommend them.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from L O (Mother of Child) published on 29 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son transferred over to the Play2Learn pre-school class from another nursery, and we are so grateful we made the decision to do this. Since started at Play2Learn, certain behaviours he had picked up at his previous setting were completely dropped, and he was excited to learn new things again. The children get exposed to so many activities - a programme in which they get to sing and dance together, doing sporty activities with Coach Jack, and learning phonics with Robot Reg. Our experience has been so great that we started our daughter there just before she turned 1, and the staff have been amazing at getting her settled into starting nursery. They take such care to send updates, pictures and progress reports, highlighting things we can do at home to help them. The staff and management are all so lovely, you can tell they operate as a family and close knit community.

P2L is a place made by wonderful people, who truly love their job and cares about kids development, happyness and wellbeing!
I was so anxious about our son starting nursery as he went quiet early (9 months old) but the staff at P2L just made the transition so smooth that we felt super comfortable from day 1
A special mention to the butterflies team as they're truly amazing people at any aspect ot their job!
In a very short time our son has developed so many new skills, indipendency that's truly impressive!

Thank you all for being so amazing!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been going to play to learn since she was 13 months. She has learnt so much from going there, and has grown in confidence and I really belive it is down to this nursery. All of the people who work there are so nice and really get to no your child. One of my favourite things about the nursery is the garden, it is amazing and has everything you would want for a little one!

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Bedford from Amber M (Mother of Child) published on 16 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We've had a really positive experience with Play 2 Learn Bedford and couldn't be happier with the care our daughter receives. The staff are incredibly kind, attentive and genuinely invested in the children's development, which gives us real peace of mind.

Our daughter settled in well, which is a testament to how nurturing and supportive the team are. They take the time to understand each child as an individual, and it's lovely to see the strong relationships they build.

The environment is welcoming, clean and well organised, with plenty of engaging activities that support learning through play. We especially appreciate how they encourage language, social skills, confidence and independence.

Communication with parents has also been excellent - we feel well-informed about our daughter's day, progress and any updates they have via the app they use.

We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to other parents looking for a safe, caring and stimulating environment for their child.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Laura M (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started this nursery one month ago and honestly it is the best decision we ever made!

All the staff are so friendly, they've helped her settle in so quickly and I cannot fault a single thing. She is so happy when I pick her up and you can tell she absolutely loves it. All communication is done via the app, I can see what she's eating, how she's sleeping and they even send photos to make you feel involved. I attended a Mother's Day stay and play recently and it was lovely to see my baby in her room with her key worker and how she interacts with the other babies. 110% recommend this nursery and will recommend them to anyone who asks. (Yes it is more pricey than others, but you get what you pay for it is fantastic! I know my daughter is going to flourish here)

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Winifred B (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We're really happy with this nursery! My child loves attending each session and always comes home excited about what they've done. The staff are fantastic at keeping us informed and updated, and I've seen so much progress in my child's development since they started. The only area I feel could be improved is the food - my child isn't too keen on the meals provided. That said, the staff have been really supportive in offering her snacks when needed. It would be great if the nursery had its own kitchen in the future, but overall, we've had a very positive experience.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Fiona A (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The care given to my son at this nursery is beyond exceptional. I feel so involved in my son's day at nursery and communication with staff members caring for him is so easy. If I'm ever worried about him or just want to check in to see how he is doing, I can always get a detailed response putting me at ease. Communication within the nursery is fantastic. It doesn't matter which staff member I speak to, (even those in different rooms) my sons key worker/or room is updated accurately and promptly.
My son has excelled in his developmental areas and has grown in confidence and independence.
The learning experiences my son gets is so diverse and look like a lot of fun.
I think the most important thing to me about my son being at play 2 learn is my peace of mind. The moment he goes in the door, I know he is going to get everything he needs until his mummy comes back!
I am truly grateful that my son has a place at play 2 learn!

They are such an amazing team of people!!

Overall Experience

Play 2 learn is an amazing nursery and my son has been at play 2 learn for just over a year now and has loved it since the very beginning. The care for my son has been amazing, the girls here at play 2 learn do a brilliant job at making sure he gets all the care and attention he needs. My son has created good relationships with all the staff in the baby unit and has now created new relationships since moving into the bumblebee room. My son loves playing out in the new garden at play 2 learn and is always eager to go when arriving to nursery. The management team at play 2 learn are so friendly and approachable and will help you with any problems or issues that you may have. Thank you so much play 2 learn for making my child's journey so special !

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Bedford from Shona L (Mother of Child) published on 27 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has attended Play2Learn for 18 months now and we cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff are lovely, experienced and enthusiastic. Were kept well up to date with her progress and very much enjoy all of the observations we receive in line with the EYFS with suggestions of how we could action this at home. We have our second child about to start in June and the staff already coo and make a fuss of him on drop off and pick up so I know he'll settle in just as well as my daughter has. The outdoor space and range of activities have been a real bonus for us as I know I'd never be able to provide all of this for her otherwise. Communication through the app is great too. It helps to know what's been going on in terms of naps and food all day.

Review of Play 2 Learn Day Nursery Grays from Toni H (Mother of Child) published on 26 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Play 2 Learn since I returned to work in January 2024. The quality of care and learning she has received in the under 2 unit in this time has been outstanding and I have no faults, it's made my return to work so much easier. Staff go above and beyond to ensure I'm up to date with everything I need to know through the app and they will always message keeping partnerships with parents paramount.
Even though she has only currently been in the under 2 unit, the rest of the team are always friendly, welcoming and approachable and all have fantastic knowledge to any questions asked. I'm looking forward to the rest of her nursery journey.

So glad I chose Play 2 Learn for her and would recommend to anyone else looking for childcare for their littles.

Overall Experience

We are delighted with every aspect of Play 2 Learn, the whole staff are so warm & welcoming. They know both children and parents & always make time to provide updates on how your child is developing. They go the extra mile by treating each child as individuals and catering to their needs. My son loves going every day, he has extremely close relationships with lots of the team so much so they're almost extended family. There are so many different activities that means every day is different. The food is nutritious and varied, there's brilliant communication via the Family App on how our child is progressing. There is an incredible nursery manager, she has so much warmth & energy - she's the beating heart of the building. I would highly recommend you send your child to Play 2 Learn.

As an anxious parent returning to work after maternity leave with my 9-month-old, I wasn't sure If I was ready to leave my baby, but my worries quickly faded. Play 2 Learn has been fantastic for both me and my daughter. The staff is genuinely lovely, showing just how much they care and how passionate they are about their work. I believe early years practitioners often don't receive the recognition they truly deserve, but the team at Play 2 Learn consistently goes the extra mile. I couldn't be happier with the care and support we've received during this transition. Thank you all!
