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.

Our son has been at Nursery Rhymes for two years, full time, now. He is graduating from the toddler room to pre-school next week, in fact. And he loves it! And we love it!
The staff are fab, the facilities are lovely (a great big garden). The staff were especially good during an emergency for our son last year (11/10 to be precise). He is also learning well and developing a nice social side to his character (which I'm sure would be less visible were he not in this nursery).
So, all in all, Nursery Rhymes comes highly recommended and we are 1000% pleased we made the choice for him to spend his early years here.
Both my daughters have been to Nursery Rhymes, so I have become very fond of the lovely staff. I shall miss them all very much when my daughter has to leave.

Nursery Rhymes is an excellent nursery, the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The care my daughter receives is brilliant, we as parents put a lot of trust into the nursery and I am delighted to say that Nursery Rhymes does not disappoint. The activities are interesting and varied, and include a nice amount of 'messy' play and outdoor activities.
Most importantly, my daughter appears to love the nursery, often running straight in without a tear. The food is of a good standard and the support she receives in her all round development is fantastic.
A fantastic nursery with fantastic staff. My daughter thoroughly enjoys her time spent there and comes home every day having learnt something new.

All the staff at Nursery Rhymes are friendly and great with all the children. They have a healthy and varied diet every week, where they get to try various meals. There is a structured education and care which is appropriate to each age group. My little daughter absolutely loves her time at nursery had will talk to us about what she has done each day telling us about her carers. I would recommend this nursery in a heartbeat.
A couple of months on, we can see the impact the nurseries had in his speech, play and happiness. He looks forward to nursery each morning.

Really impressed with the staff. I like the way I get told how my little one has been and even have it written down in a book to read.
