My son has come on leaps and bounds since he started attending Spring, he has grown in confidence and they have really helped him with his speech and counting. They treat my daughter as if she was one of the children that attends, she is now starting in September because she loves it here so much. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough they are everything you want for your child in an environment that isn’t home.
Thank you for your lovely feedback! We are glad you noticed an improvement in your child's speech and counting and we can't wait for your little one to start with us in September!
Our child has been attending Spring Seesaw for just over a year now. When she first joined, they really worked with her to help her feel safe and secure. She's since moved up into the next age room and is really thriving. She gets to do a range of activities, including cooking, reading, drawing and playing. She has opportunities to learn through song, which she loves, and is excited by Forest School and the outside space available. The food is great, it seems nutritionally balanced and offers great variety. The staff are amazing, caring and compassionate. We really struggled when choosing a nursery as it's such a big decision, but we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Spring Seesaw to others.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I will be sure to share this with the team!
I have never known a nursery to incorporate so many fun, beneficial and educational activities into the nursery day!
Thank you, Spring Nursery Seesaw!
Thank you for your review! We are glad you are happy with our service, communication and activities we provide.
Love them all.
Everyone is very helpful, and I couldn't be happier with that place and staff.
Trust them 100%.
Thank you so much for your lovely review and kind words! We're glad you are happy with the nursery.
I couldn't be any happier with the nursery and the team. My son started at the nursery when he was nine months old, and the care he has received has been amazing. I feel at ease leaving my son with all the staff, and they treat him like family. As a full-time working parent, I felt guilty about not having as much time with him, but he absolutely loves nursery and, developmentally, has come on so much. I'll always be grateful to the baby team for all they do for him!
Thank you for your lovely feedback, and we're so glad your son is receiving such high care and you are happy with our provision!
From the very first email, everything has been easy.
The communication is excellent.
The care these guys provide is excellent too.
We love hearing about what she has got up to during the day.
It's a huge thing to leave your child within the care of someone else, and to know she is safe, being cared for and stimulated properly eases those worries.
But above all else, my daughter is genuinely happy to be there!
Thank you for your lovely review and kind words! We're so glad you are happy with our service and communication! Thank you so much.
I am absolutely thrilled with this nursery. I am a first-time mother, and putting my baby in the care of anyone else is worrying. Every single staff member made sure my little one and I were comfortable and happy. We've always recieved updates via the app to keep my mind at ease. My daughter has been going here since the beginning of September when they opened their baby room, and she loves attending and loves all the staff members. I can not fault anything and am really pleased with my decision of sending her here.
My daughter has been attending Spring Seesaw for over two years now. She absolutely adores going to the nursery every day. I can't thank enough the staff for always being so friendly, caring and helpful. Every week they plan new great activities and themes for the kids to learn and interact with, which makes them grow independently. My daughter loves it! The communication with parents is excellent. The app is regularly updated every day, including feeding times, activities on the day and focus observations in your child, also a briefing about your child at picking-up times. Food is freshly cooked every day, and the menu is healthy. Great indoor and outdoor space. We could not be any happier with the entire team. Highly recommended! Thank you very much for your hard work and effort!
Thank you for your kind words and lovely review! We're so glad little one enjoys her time at nursery! The app is amazing, isn't it! So parent-friendly too! Thank you!
This nursery is fantastic. I moved my son here from another nursery which we had lots of problems with, but since being at Spring Seasaw, my son has come leaps and bounds! All the staff go above and beyond for the children, and I can't wait for my daughter to start in January.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so happy your son has made so much progress, and we can't wait for your little girl to start in January!
The staff are so kind. My son goes into nursery and gets unsettled, and the staff are always there to calm him down etc. Absolutely love this nursery; they keep you updated on what your child has eaten and how much they have eaten, nappy changed etc, and you can also see photos and videos of the progression of your child's time at the nursery and their goals.
Thank you for your lovely review and your kind words! We're so glad you're happy with our service.
I have recommended this nursery to a few of my mum friends, and they say the exact same.
My eldest now attends their after-school club, and she still comes home saying how much fun she has had.
My little boy was very anxious about being separated from myself when he started due to Covid; however, he has changed totally, and he walks in all happy and excited. He always has a wonderful day as well.
Everyone in the nursery is so supportive and helpful.
Thank you for your lovely review and for recommending us to your friends! We're so glad both of your children enjoy coming to our nursery and out-of-school club!
My son continues to have a fantastic time at Seesaw; he is excited to attend every week and has made great progress educationally. He has a good relationship with all staff and children and has grown in confidence, manners and self-efficiency - he is really on the right path for school, and I cannot fault their handling of the day-to-day!
Thank you for your lovely review and such kind words! I will be sure to share this with the team!
She has her favourite routines, games and plays. Staff are very supportive and understanding, especially when she needs to have her hair brushed.
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad little one is settled and happy! We love playing hairdressers in the mornings haha!
The new baby room is beautiful, and my daughter loves it!
They do a range of activities with the children that are fun and educational.
All the girls are amazing, and the facility is great!
10/10 would recommend it to anyone in the area!
Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad your little one loves nursery! Thank you for your kind words!
My little boy has been attending since May 2021, and he loves it! All the staff are so welcoming and friendly. I get updates through the day with what he has been eating etc, and occasionally get photos and a detailed description of an activity he's been taking part in. They also give me a quick update when I go to collect him at the end of his day. He recently had a little accident at nursery, bumping his head (no fault of the staff), but they ensured he was safe and well, and when I later emailed and asked for a deeper explanation of what happened, they didn't hesitate to call and give me a full rundown of the events and continuously checked and asked how he was following. They really try to help bring his speech along, which is now improving, and they do everything they can to encourage this! I have recommended Spring to friends and will continue to do so.
Thank you for your lovely review and kind words! We're so glad you like the app! The children's safety is our number one priority, and we're glad you recognise this! Thank you for recommending us to your friends!
I am absolutely happy with this nursery. The staff are always helpful and welcoming, and my son loves it. He is more independent and always excited to tell me about the things he learns at nursery. So happy I found them!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're glad you have noticed a difference in your child's independence! I'll be sure to share this with the team! Thank you!
From the moment we entered Spring Nursery Seesaw Lancaster Way, the staff could not have been more helpful. Every single team member is so professional, caring and passionate about all the services they provide. Our daughter has some development issues, and they have fully embraced this, offering great support to our daughter.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! I'm so glad we have made a difference!
My daughter has been attending since March, and she loves it here! The staff are all friendly and welcoming. A very clean setting, and lovely meals are prepared for the children. I would recommend this nursery to any parent. Thank you.

My daughter loves to attend the nursery. All the staff are very attentive and kind to her. They have a lot of activities, and she loves being involved in those activities, learning and having fun all the time.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. I will be sure to share this with the team!
I cannot recommend the nursery enough. Both my two children have had the best care and education in the time they were there. The staff are incredible.
