Review from S E (Mother of Child) published on 6 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Negative experience. My baby smelt of cigarette smoke when I collected them. I put them in for half a day then decided to not return. Some staff didn't engage positively with the children. No consistent key worker provided for my child. Environment wasn't the cleanest. We have found a new nursery and have noticed a huge difference in how both ourselves and our child has been treated.

Overall Experience

My little girl started here at the beginning of the year and she has come on in leaps and bounds. She loves all of the staff and feels at home when going in each week. You can clearly see the love the staff have for their job by the care the children receive. We couldn't have found a better nursery for our little girl and absolutely love Invitation 2 Play. A huge thank you to all the staff for the support in settling her with the love and care she receives there and the way my little girl is treated. The best nursery

My children first attended the nursery at invitation 2 play and now use the before/after school service. The staff are amazing and have a love for the children that is not easy to find. They offer a range of services and activities to keep children entertained. They have refined the mix of educational and exciting. My boys have loved being part of the family at Invitation 2 Play.

I can only say amazing things about this nursery, my son has attended for nearly two years now and the progress he has made is unbelievable. I know when he starts preschool he will be more than ready and that's down to the girls at good buddies. Thank you for everything you do my son absolutely adores every single one of you xx

Overall Experience

My son has attended the nursery since he was 8 months old he's now 18 months and he has come on so much with his confidence, speech and motor skills. I strongly believe this is down to the staff there. They encourage him so much to learn new things. The environment is so friendly and welcoming for both children and parents and I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Overall Experience

My 2-year-old daughter goes to Good Buddies Daycare and has done since she was 10 months old. She loves going and gets excited every morning when I drop her off. All the members of staff are lovely and make not only my daughter feel at ease, but myself and my wife too.

Review from Sally (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2016 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I moved my child to this nursery from another that I felt wasn't delivering enough pre-school activities. I have been extremely happy with the care and activities that Good Buddies Daycare have given my daughter. The manager was very welcoming, listened to my concerns and delivered on all her promises. My 4-year-old settled in quickly and within a few weeks had developed the skills I felt she needed to be ready for Reception. If you are looking for a nursery with a personal touch, which treats the children as individuals, then I would recommend this nursery.

Review from Vanesa W (Mother of Child) published on 22 October 2015 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son started in July after he turned 1 and I returned to work. I was very anxious but the staff were fantastic with my son and me, putting us both at ease quickly. The management are friendly, yet professional, knowledgeable and hands on. My son has blossomed here and is a very happy well adjusted toddler who simply adores going to nursery. I couldn't ask for a better experience.

Overall Experience

Good Buddies Daycare is a fantastic nursery in which my son has progressed so much through his learning, speech and understanding thanks to all of the dedicated hard-working staff. I always worried my son wouldn't settle and was a slow learner due to his premature birth. However, in the 6 months he has been there he can now use speech and even refuses to come home with me he loves it that much. I have also been pregnant the whole time my son has attended and I couldn't ask for more supportive caring staff, who continue to help me due to my own complications that I have experienced and who always help regarding appointments.
