My daughter has been going here for 18 months, she absolutely adores everyone in the nursery and cannot believe how much she has learnt since being there. She came from another setting and within 3 months was spelling her name, and learning to write it. The whole nursery staff are extremely understanding and welcoming, so much so my son is starting this year too and I put my full trust into them.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words! We are so excited for your son to start with us!
This nursery has been amazingly supportive and we are so glad we found it. All the staff have been so great and my child is really blossoming with them.
The room staff are always so friendly and understanding of your child's needs. It makes my day at work when I see an update from them come through. Highly recommended.
Nothing bad to say as it's a brilliant nursery all round
My daughter can't wait to go to nursery and settled so well so quickly
Love them
Thank you for much for your lovely review and kind words! We are over the moon you are still so happy 10 years later!
My daughter is always excited when it's nursery time and we are thankful for the wonderful job they are doing.
Thank you for your lovely review and kind words! We will be sure to share this with the team!
Spring Nursery Seesaw is an amazing nursery. Both of my children have been through the rooms. The staff are wonderful with the kids and parents. I felt safe knowing it is like a home away from home. They are loving and caring and well looked after. The communication is fantastic, and the food is healthy and exciting for the kids. They have a lovely room, garden and forest school to play in. The children have wonderful, engaging activities every day. Their SEN support is first class. I wouldn't choose to go anywhere else.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words!
All the staff at Spring Nursery are so welcoming, very professional and caring. Since the day my Son ( 2 in June) started the nursery he has developed and grown so much all thanks to the baby room staff. They are always keeping the children occupied with fun activities, indoor and outdoor play, inviting parents to family sessions they can not do enough for the families attending the setting.
The staff keep me up to date throughout the day with what my son is doing all day through the app this is great as while I'm working I can check on him and see how much he has eaten, when he is napping etc.
Thank you to all you lovely staff! You are truly amazing!
Thank you for your kind words and lovely feedback!
My son loves coming to nursery every day and everyone have been wonderful to him. He has improved so much, the practitioners have done so much more for him than I ever could. Management are amazing as well, they have been so understanding and helpful. All in all, everyone is so friendly and helpful. 100% would recommend this nursery to anyone.
Thank you so much for you lovely feedback and kind words!
Great staff and my daughter really enjoys her time here. If my daughter is upset for any reason at drop off, staff are really good at giving an update when she has settled in. There are loads for the kids to do and staff make sure there are different activities every day.
Thank you for your lovely review and kind words! I will be sure to share this with the team.
Fantastic nursery with great Senco support. Very friendly staff and lots to do for the children. My son loves it here after leaving his other nursery which, to be honest, I should have done sooner. This is the best nursery I have found in the area. I have 4 children so we tried a few nurseries. The rooms are big and kept clean. Good food choices made fresh and yummy. Staff lovely. Water play, painting a lovely garden. Honestly, I only have good things to say. A very happy environment with fantastic staff for the little ones. Always welcomed with smiles. A nursery that makes us feel like family!
Thank you for your lovely feedback and kind words! I will be sure to share this with the team!
It’s so lovely to be able to go into the nursery to pick the children up, you can see how happy they all are.
The staff always make time to have a chat and let you know what your child has been doing.
Love getting updates and pictures throughout the day too.
Well done to all the staff, you really are outstanding!
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! Our team are amazing and the app is so helpful to keep parents updated throughout the day!
Really experienced and educated staff. Very friendly, welcoming and approachable. Lovely setup and really pleased with how my daughter was supported to settle into nursery. She absolutely loves her time there. The children seem calm, happy and engaged, lovely atmosphere. My daughter stays for lunch and is offered a variety of healthy, hot-cooked meals and is making so much progress with trying new foods.
Thank you for your lovely feedback and kind words. Our meals are very yummy!
Spring Seesaw is a brilliant nursery. My daughter has attended in the past and the experience was amazing. Her English has improved in no time, staff very supportive and management too. My son has been attending the nursery for couple years now and with the support of all the team. He has really 'come out of his shell', behaviour and communication. We are really grateful to all the team for everything they did and do. Keep up the great job.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are glad you are happy with our service and can notice a difference in your child's development.
The staff are attentive and most importantly warm, I see they have really bonded with my child and upon collections, you see/feel their commitment to parental inclusion. A great nursery!
Thank you for your lovely feedback and kind words. I will be sure to share this with the team!
Communication is great, easy to contact someone and the nursery is always communicating with updates, info, events and advice.
Would definitely recommend and if I had another baby would use this place for sure!
Thank you for your lovely feedback and kind words! We are glad you feel supported!
From nurturing to quality to learning, this nursery has it all. Every member of staff goes above and beyond to support children and their families.
This nursery offers a great variety of activities, both indoor and outdoor play.
Children have a fabulous range of meals and snacks.
I really could not ask for more, it has everything I could ask for when it comes to choosing a nursery for my granddaughter.
Thank you to all the amazing staff.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words!
The nursery has been so accommodating and understanding whilst we have been trying to get our 10-month-old daughter to settle into the nursery. They have gone above and beyond to make us and her feel comfortable in the baby room. Great work from all the staff involved.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are super proud of our amazing team!
It’s an amazing nursery, so lovely with lots of space and a lovely garden. The staff are so great with the children - will always keep you up to date with how their day went. Updates on the app are super quick about what they’ve eaten/when they’ve eaten. My son was upset on his first day & when I left he cried, by the time I walked home (4 minutes) I already had a message on the app & a picture to inform me he had settled. Cannot fault them.
Thank you for your lovely feedback and comments! I will be sure to share this with our amazing team!
This nursery is brilliant, my little one has been there a year and her development has been immense. All the staff are great and so supportive. There always seems like a ton of fun learning activities and loads of opportunities for parents to be involved. 100/10 would recommend.
Thank you for your lovely feedback and kind words! We are glad you can notice a difference in your child's development!
My son absolutely loves coming into the nursery. He runs in so happy and every single member of staff says good morning to him and knows all of the children’s names which makes the experience so personable. Before attending my child had a speech delay and since attending he has learnt so much and his speech has really improved. The staff are exceptional and really understand my child’s specific needs. They go above and beyond to make sure they understand what he likes. My son coming to the nursery has made such a difference in his development and learning. He has grown a really close bond with the staff and looks forward to the days he’s in the nursery.
Thank you for your lovely feedback and we are so glad we are making a positive contribution to your son's learning and development.
My daughter has been coming to you for over a year, she first started in the baby room. I loved every minute I walked through the doors every staff are lovely and very helpful if you need to talk to them about something. My daughter is now in the next room and during her settling days, they made sure she was comfortable and enjoying herself. She now comes to nursery ready to go and no more crying when she first started. I'm very pleased with the nursery and I'm very happy with the support and staff we have from there.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are so glad your little one is comfortable and enjoying her nursery experience.
