I am so happy to have this nursery so close to home and be able to take my children. My eldest was well looked after and my little one is currently enjoying being around such caring and fun members of staff. I thank everyone for their dedication.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so glad you are happy, and your children enjoy the nursery.
We are so pleased with all aspects of the nursery. My son comes home very happy, keeps telling me that he had fun at the nursery. The staff are excellent.
Thank you for your lovely review, we are so glad your son has settled so well and really enjoys his day at nursery.
After the Covid lockdown, our daughter was eager to attend schooling. We as parents were concerned about her transition, however, we were delighted with her response as she is now excited to attend nursery. This is down to a great learning/play environment where she can flourish. We are very happy with the daily updates via an app which really puts our minds at ease.
Thank you for your lovely review, it is a pleasure working with you and caring for your daughter and watching her grown and explore the environment and activities.
My son's speech has gone from completely mute to almost his age range in a year. He loves all the staff here and I can't thank them all enough for everything they do.
Thank you for your lovely review, we love watching your son grow and develop, he is a lovely little character and we have such fun when he is in with us.
Spring Seesaw has been amazing these last couple of months. My daughter did like leaving me, especially after lockdown. But they have been great at encouraging her and making her feel so so welcome. And would give me a message to let me know how she has settled if she went in upset and was never a bother if I rang and asked after her. My daughter absolutely loves the staff. Especially certain staff members, who I can’t thank enough with how they have been with my daughter. All the staff are so friendly and welcoming.
Thank you for your lovely review, your feedback means a lot to us, as does watching how well your daughter has settled with us.
This is a fantastic nursery. My daughter is generally very shy, especially with new people. The staff made it so much easier for her to settle in. They are a lovely bunch of people, and the nursery has a real family feel. My daughter loves coming here and talks about it how happy she is there a lot.
Thank you very much for your lovely review; we have loved to see how well your daughter has settled in and watching her grow in confidence is a real pleasure.
Very friendly and helpful staff, always smiling.
If you have any problems, the staff just resolved them straight away, and you can choose flexible hours for your child.
Thank you for your lovely review, we are so happy that you and your son are happy here with us.
My grandson loves his days at nursery it has helped him with his speech and has so much more confidence hopefully these will grow even more until he leaves to go into full-time school.
Thank you for your lovely review, we are so happy that your grandson is progressing so well.
My little girl is so happy to come to nursery, she even wants to come on her days off. Her learning has progressed even more since she started this nursery and I'm very happy with her progress.
We are so happy that you and your daughter enjoy coming to the nursery.
When my daughter first started, she did have a bit of separation anxiety, but her key worker dealt with her so well. Distracted her and then once she was happy, they would message me on the app with a picture and let me know she’s ok. It made me feel so at ease seeing pictures and getting updates.
If I’ve ever had an issue, it had been resolved once I have addressed it. All nursery staff listen to my concerns and acted accordingly.
Also, I love that I get regular updates on her development. Regular assessments make me feel a lot more confident about her progression.
I do highly recommend the nursery.
Also home-cooked meals for lunchtime is such a bonus! Great meals all freshly made on site is great.
Thank you for your lovely review we are so glad you are happy here, and your daughter has settled so well.
I am concerned about the cleanliness of the nursery as I don't see any professional cleaners around. The staffing levels are low.
The treatment is excellent and they are really very careful with the children. They are always excited to get to the nursery, he loves it. Thank you.
The staff at Seesaw are friendly and very helpful. For the parents, they are more than happy to help and with the kids they are encouraging, playful and educational. Very pleased I picked here for my son. Plus the family app is a great thing to keep up with little one's development. Recommended to my Mum mates.
Thank you for lovely review it's so good to hear your feedback.
Staff are great with the children, my son comes home happy and even more intelligent. I'm happy with his friends and the way everyone is nice with my son.
Thank you for leaving us a lovely review and choosing our setting.
My child loves Spring Nursery, she is always happy going in and coming out. Staff are amazing, they all take time to say hello to parents and children and always have time to have a chat if needed and tell you what your child has been doing throughout the day. Everything is clean and set out lovely ready for the children to play. My child has made friends and has learnt so much being at Spring Nursery. Excellent staff and nursery. Would fully recommend it.
