About this price
How the monthly figure is calculated.More info
- We work out the total cost across the year and divide by 12, so the figure shown is a smoothed monthly average. In practice, nurseries bill in different ways. Some bill monthly at this average. Others bill weekly, or charge for what happened that week or month, which can vary across the year. Confirm billing details with the nursery when you enquire.

This nursery is superb and we are so pleased we chose this environment. The attention to detail is exceptional. The love, care and education is like home from home. My children are so happy and content, and so are we as parents, knowing that they are being looked after so incredibly well. Also as a gold star - they love the meals at Nursery Rhymes which is a relief as they can be fussy eaters.

So much so I travel 30-40 mins to ensure my youngest can continue at Nursery Rhymes now that my eldest has started at his local school. Great environment, staff are great and communication is outstanding. Would recommend to anybody!

Since my daughter started Nursery Rhymes, I have seen amazing progress in her speech, sharing, eating habits and also toilet training. My daughter settled so quickly into the toddler room, thanks to all the staff. Daily observations I receive are in so much depth, which I love! And the photos that come with it are just heart-warming and reassuring. Communication between myself and the staff, especially the key working, has been amazing from day one. Thank you, Nursery Rhymes.
My son has settled in so well and we know he has been well looked after. We receive updates during the course of the day and he’s literally loving all of the activities. Really impressed and would highly recommend Nursery Rhymes.

We can’t speak highly enough of this nursery. We started using Nursery Rhymes in 2018 and they have always provided the best care for both of our children. The staff are fully in tune with their needs and they have nurtured them in kind and loving ways. Each day is full of fun and learning and it is always so lovely to hear that their days have been guided by the child’s own interests. We would whole heartily recommend this nursery.
Both of my daughters have had a wonderful time at Nursery Rhymes. The staff are always supportive and take the time to understand each child and their needs. My eldest daughter is now at school and still talks about her key worker! Thanks for taking such good care of them.

Our son started at Nursery Rhymes when he was 11 months old and we couldn’t be happier with the care and support we have all received. The app used to keep us updated on his day to day activities along with his personal development is fantastic and really helps ease any worries you may have. The staff are so friendly and our little one has taken to them all so quickly, it’s reassuring to know there is someone there to comfort him if needed. In the baby room, it appears to be very hands-on with fun activities inside and outside every day that keep them entertained and their minds stimulated. We couldn’t fault the nursery in any way and are so happy that we managed to get a place there!

He has grown so much and learnt so much, particularly whilst he has been in the preschool room. I don’t mean particularly phonics or maths (although he has learnt these really well), but he has been taught to be a kind, considerate child. The preschool team were instrumental in him learning to express his emotions, during what has been a really hard year for the children (and everyone else). They are inclusive with every aspect of learning and encourage inquisitive, curious children.
Their affection and patience for the children is evident and the staff foster lovely relationships with their children. We will be very sad to say goodbye to nursery rhymes in the summer when he heads to school.
Nursery Rhymes - Leicester provides a warm and loving atmosphere for children where they can learn and nurture. Excellent food and amazing staff. My daughter always has a great time. It gives me piece of mind to know she is in good care.

Nursery Rhymes - Leicester has exceeded my expectations and I would definitely recommend it to all of my friends. My son loves all the activities and outdoor space, as well as the great food which he always mentions on pick-up! The staff are all incredible and go above and beyond to ensure our son is happy and comfortable. His key worker spends lots of time developing a relationship with him and genuinely wants to get to know him and his interests. During Covid-19, we have felt very reassured with the procedures put in place and can see the commitment of all the staff who work there.

My daughter has been with Nursery Rhymes - Leicester for three years now and we were so grateful to have found such a great place for my daughter to spend her crucial early years, we visited a few nurseries and we chose Nursery Rhymes - Leicester as we had a great feeling about the place and were fully confident that it is somewhere where she would flourish and be happy. Every single staff member we have come in contact with has been amazingly attentive and caring, my daughter has made some great friendships along the way, she loves the fun activities and play both indoors and outdoors and the excellent variety of meals on offer, has kept meal times exciting and interesting. I could not recommend this nursery highly enough, thanks to everyone at Nursery Rhymes - Leicester for taking great care of our daughter every week!

Fantastic nursery, is it any wonder my child calls it another home ‘nursery house’. All staff are friendly and accommodating to my child’s needs. Genuinely have peace of mind that my child is being looked after to the highest standard at all times. Couldn’t recommend the nursery enough. Thank you...
