Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse

Very friendly and welcoming nursery, great settling in sessions offered for new starters and I was made to feel comfortable about leaving my child there for the first time. We were shown around and reassured by friendly staff and introduced to my child’s key worker.

The availability of the online learning journal is excellent however some of the pictures are very blurry and can take a while to be uploaded. Some small improvements could be made to make this much better for parents.

The standard of food is good with a variety of healthy on-site prepared food. However, the choice of pizza for under ones is questionable.

Really appreciated the homemade cards for birthdays and Valentine's - was a lovely surprise to come home to.

Overall an excellent nursery!

The team are very welcoming and happy. I’m always well informed when picking up my daughter and above all the bond and friendship that the staff have made with her really makes me feel comfortable in knowing she is well looked after. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

I have had nothing but pleasant experiences since my daughter started here in July 2018 at just 9 months old.

We are absolutely delighted with Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse.

The positive impact that nursery is having on our son’s development is evident and he learns new things every day.

My son settled fairly quickly into the baby room at 1-year-old thanks to the kind and very experienced staff there. He moved to the next room after three months and has completely settled and loves his time at the nursery. He has such a rapport with his key worker. She recognises his needs and supports him every step of the way. It shows how she genuinely cares and loves spending time with him and his happy, cheeky character that is showing by the day. I have complete trust and peace of mind leaving him there. I can't thank them enough. The cook is also amazing for his dietary needs. Definitely recommended. Get on the waiting list.

My daughter is so happy at Daisy Chain Childcare Lofthouse. The staff know her needs, recognise her needs and support her every step of the way.

They have been incredibly supportive.

This is an outstanding provider for young children. My baby started at 6 months old and her care was tailored just for her. The staff went to great lengths to do whatever made her happy so if she wanted rocking, they rocker her, I took her pushchair in for the first few weeks as she wouldn't settle and they pushed her around in it to help her sleep. The activities are fantastic, they sent photos home so you can see what she is doing and she is always rolling around happy and doing something engaging. She loves going, she is always happy when I drop her off and when I pick her up. The staff are amazing, they look after the kids like they are their own. My baby is very attached to her key worker who is lovely with her and all the staff make her feel happy and safe. I am over the moon with the provision and I can't recommend it highly enough.

The staff at Daisy Chain are helpful, caring and I feel comfortable leaving my child with them. I know she will be cared for but also stimulated with lots of activities and play. The team have helped us to get her into more of a routine and supported us when she first started with nap time. My daughter loves nursery, which is all you can ask for.

Daisy Chain Lofthouse is an excellent childcare provider. They provide a nurturing environment which has enabled our daughter to make fantastic progress. Everyone works hard to provide the best possible experience for our daughter, in particular, the key workers who do an amazing job each and every day.

Great nursery, and always willing to accommodate the needs and requirements of the children. We are always pleased with the updates of the different activities and learning the kids undertake. Most importantly we have complete trust and peace of mind when leaving the children there.

My daughter was being prepared to move up to the next nursery room throughout November into December and it was handled so well, in fact on one of her settling-in visits she didn’t want to leave so it was arranged for her to move earlier than expected! The girls in the room she was leaving have all been amazing throughout her time with them and the girls in my daughter's new room are looking after her so well and really getting to know her. Thank you, girls, you do an amazing job with the children in your care.

Our little girl has been attending Daisy Chain since she was nine months old. She is now twenty-one months old and has been through each of the rooms. We have seen her develop so much through each of the rooms and this is an absolute testament to the team at Daisy Chain. Our child loves going to nursery each week and is excited as to what she will be doing. The care she gets, not only from her key worker but from all the girls in the room is exceptional. Everyone from the girls in the rooms to the management are very friendly and always speak to me and my Daughter.

My daughter has been at Daisy Chain for over 2 years now and she loves it. She has come on leaps and bounds since she started, and I cannot commend the staff highly enough, especially each key worker she has been assigned.

Fantastic nursery.

The ladies who work with my daughter are fantastic, always full of smiles in a morning and make a really big effort to get to know each individual.

Thank you.

My daughter has attended Daisy Chain in Lofthouse since she was 12 months old and she is now 3.5 years old. Her key worker and the other staff in each room have been very good with her and have done everything they can to make her feel comfortable. I particularly like the fact that each room has its own outside area. I would definitely recommend.

Daisy Chain Lofthouse is a warm welcoming setting and has allowed us to feel at ease having our daughter there while we go to work. Our daughter is currently in the Imps room and attends two afternoons per week. She is loving it and has settled so well. Now she is settled I would like her to be challenged a little more, at home we practice colours, shapes, numbers and letters. She’s also very creative and loves to draw/paint which she is also doing at nursery. She also loves to sing. The girls are brilliant at what they do and I’m confident she is getting the right care and attention. However, I think maybe a few tabletop activities and stimulating resources would be ideal. I would also like to see her taking part in group activities too such as singing and story telling.

My experience with Daisy Chain has been great so far. They have helped our son to learn and grow as well as helping and guiding me and my other half along the way.

It’s been great to get ongoing practical advice during challenging times from tantrums to potty training! The manager and her staff really look out for us and are so caring, they keep us updated with activities in the nursery and how our kid is doing. We have noticed an improvement in our child's interaction, he is confident and sociable and swiftly adjusts to the surroundings. Thank you Daisy Chain and all the staff working there for taking care of us! I would definitely recommend this nursery, you won’t be left disappointed. Great Facilities, location and helpful staff. I will certainly recommend.

Excellent nursery in terms of learning and child achieving. We have seen our child thrive and gain so much confidence.

However, I would struggle to find a nursery that compared and I love the things that nursery do with our child. Our child loves his days at Daisy Chain.

Daisy Chain has always provided excellent care for my daughter. The nursery makes use of its outdoor space and provides a range of stimulating activities for the children. The staff always make everyone feel welcome and they go out of their way to make each child feel special. The nursery management keeps us well informed of progress and arrange a number of activities to include parents. We are able to trace our daughter's development via their tapestry app and it also allows us real time updates on our daughters day.

My daughter has been attending Daisy Chain for a few months now and it has made a big difference to her confidence and personality. My daughter is much more out going and really enjoys attending nursery. She is always involved in all activities including a sports day held last month. All the staff are very polite and friendly and I never have any issues or concerns about her at the nursery.
