Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse is purpose-built and was opened by the group on 2008. Gardens for outdoor play, a sensory room and a community room are some of the additions that the innovative design included to make the most of all children's early years learning potential.
Sheltered outdoor area allows the nursery professionals to ensure that active play thrives, while there is even a 'magic garden' where children can learn more about growing fruit and vegetables.

We couldn’t be happier with the care that he has received from every single staff member. Everyone has been so welcoming and helped to make a very nervous mother feel considerably more comfortable. The manager is always particularly helpful.
They have catered to his special needs including dietary needs fantastically and their wonderful chef has always ensured that my son has never suffered food-wise because of restrictions, including a dairy-free birthday cake which was so appreciated. The facilities are so good, that our extended family who have on occasion picked up our son, have commented on how impressed they were with the nursery! We would like to especially mention 4 ladies who have not only made it fun but have noticeably aided in our son's development, and it is obvious from his reaction to them that he genuinely loves attending.

Our daughter has attended Daisy Chain Lofthouse for 3 and a half years now since she was 10 months old. The staff are incredible, they really care about the children as individuals. Our daughter has always felt safe and cared for at the nursery and we, as parents, have always felt confident about our choice of childcare. Our daughter has learned so much, the nursery staff have done a fantastic job of making sure she is prepared for Reception when she goes in September, and being with other children in a preschool setting has also helped to develop her social skills. We couldn't have hoped for a better nursery.
The range of activities my child is involved in is amazing. I love that they get external providers in for things like music and football. I always get a full rundown of the day and the app updates also help with this too. All the nursery ladies are always happy to see my little one; they are kind...

Our daughter loves coming to nursery and her key worker and other members of staff in the same room are so positive and it's always lovely to drop her off in such a nice environment and pick her up to hear about the day!
We have always felt confident leaving our daughter and she is always happy when we arrive and jolly when we come to pick up. The staff are all genuinely caring and supportive.
Daisy Chain Nursery offers exceptional care. My son thrives there, always happy and engaged. The staff's genuine care shines through, and their diverse activities ensure every child's growth. Highly recommended!

My son absolutely loves it here, the sensory room and all the outdoor equipment are his favourites. Not only that they support him and myself with his needs. I couldn't appreciate this nursery enough. We are going to miss coming next year.

My daughter has been attending Daisy Chain Lofthouse for over 2 years now and I have never had a bad experience with any of the staff. All staff have been wonderful, really caring and supportive of my daughter. I recommend the nursery to everyone and will continue to do so. My daughter's key worker...
My other daughter has recently started attending the nursery in the Pixies Room and the workers in that room have been amazing at making her feel settled in, they are really great.

A massive thank you to my child's key worker in the Pixie Room, seeing how much she absolutely loved being with her has always made me feel so at ease. We were always updated with pictures & videos of her day which is always lovely to look back on.
A big thank you to a member of staff my child's new key worker in the Imps Room, within a week she seemed so settled & happy with her new little team. All team members are so lovely & do a fantastic job with all the children.
They are always there to greet me when I drop her off or pick her up. With a detailed handover for the day!

I trust them completely with my little girl and this is hard for me as I had to change nurseries as her previous one wasn't caring for her as they should.
The manager/another member of staff came to the rescue and managed to get me some days - I will be forever grateful to them and their wonderful team.
They offer so many different activities and the meals are always changing which is exactly what you would like from your nursery - as well as the family days which are such fun!
This nursery is absolutely the best around.

Children go through many emotional and behavioural rollercoasters. My child was struggling, but her primary carer was amazing. She was supportive and loving. Two other members of staff in particular also go out of their way to make my child feel safe and happy. I knew my child was being mentored through her developmental challenges which gave me such peace of mind. I was also given tips and support for home. My child is so happy with her family at Daisy Chain, sometimes she prefers it to home!

She subsequently progressed through the different rooms and we were constantly updated through the app on her learning and development journey, as well as her social activities and interactions with other children (many of who are now close friends).
Her transition into the final room has seen her grow in confidence and she has seamlessly transitioned into school, which we know is a result of the dedication of her key worker, who has worked hard to prepare her for the next stage. She has been a fabulous key worker for our child, who has always been excited to go to nursery and always keen to share her achievements with her. Our child has also been supported by other staff members who have all been excellent.

My 4 year old daughter has attended Daisy Chain in Lofthouse for the past three years and has just left to start school. The setting is very clean, well-maintained and has brilliant facilities inside and out. The staff are all very friendly and helpful and my daughter loved her key workers in the Imps and Elves rooms who showed so much care, patience and encouragement, both with her personal and academic development. She couldn't have been in better hands and has absolutely loved her time there. I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for an outstanding nursery.
We’ve had two children go through all rooms at Daisy Chain Childcare in Lofthouse. The preschool team are incredibly child-focused, knowledgeable, genuinely caring and a pleasure to chat to at the end of the day. We will all really miss the staff.

We’ve had two children go through all rooms at Daisy Chain Childcare in Lofthouse. The preschool team are incredibly child-focused, knowledgeable, genuinely caring and a pleasure to chat to at the end of the day. We will all really miss the staff. A big mention has to go to his key person, I don’t think any other person could be more on my son’s wavelength! Across the whole nursery, there have been some stand out staff we’ve come across since 2018; one from the baby room, one from toddler room (currently on maternity leave) and his key worker particularly. But also the strengths and leadership shine through from the staff within the foundation/preschool room too. This can be seen through where our son is at academically, as well as emotionally too, as his needs have clearly been met for him to be learning so well and settled. It’s officially the end of an era for us with our youngest starting school. Thanks for being part of their journey.

The staff are so helpful and friendly and my boys love attending this setting. Activities are fun and creative, with lots of opportunities for fresh air outside for letting off big bursts of energy.
Children are also supported academically in a fun non-pushy way and their interests are often considered when planning further activities.
The setting is clean and very well maintained with excellent facilities. It's an excellent nursery and we'll miss going there. We'll definitely miss the ladies Heather, as they have been so lovely throughout.
My 4-year-old daughter is just about to leave Daisy Chain after 4 years when she first attended when she was 6 months. The care, attention, love and commitment she has received has been nothing short of exceptional. She has thrived at Daisy Chain, she has made friends, gained her independence, been...
The staff members in particular who have made my girl's experience so great is the lady in the Pixie room. She took care of both my daughters and they adore her. The lady in the Imps room has such a special bond with my youngest, she loves to see her. The lady in the Elves room has a fantastic relationship with my eldest daughter.
I cannot thank them enough for their kindness, patience and care they have given my children.

One thing that would be great is more detail for each day and more regular updates on the online journal. We see food and nappies but it would be so good to know more about the activities completed each day and how our son is coming on with his development, what is the next stage etc.
We have been so impressed with the level of love and care shown to our daughter at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse and highly recommend the nursery.

We have been so impressed with the level of love and care shown to our daughter at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse and highly recommend the nursery. She started part-time in the baby room at 6 months old and is now 17 months and attending 5 days per week in the toddler room. Each day she comes home with a new skill or word and her confidence has grown massively. The staff arrange a wide variety of themed activities to encourage learning through play. We have also been really happy with the food served, it's healthy and very varied which was really beneficial on her weaning journey.
