LEYF - Noah's Ark Nursery & Pre-School

My daughter has been attending Noah’s Ark crèche since she was nine months. She is now almost three and during this time, the nursery staff have become like a family to us. They are remarkably wonderful and genuinely care about children. There is always a positive vibe in the nursery, the classroom is airy and full of activities, the spacious outdoor space is enjoyed by kids all day long and the food cooked on site is very well balanced. Thanks to the nursery, my daughter picked up yoga at the age of two, tidying up her toys and priceless wisdom such as daddy, sharing is caring.

Our daughter and us we cannot be happier with the Noah’s Ark. She is going to stay at the nursery until the primary school and we hope our second child will also get a place there.

Both my children have attended Noah's Ark during the last five years and I have huge praise for the excellent staff who have become like extended family to us. The manager is incredible - she possesses an admirable combination of calmness, kindness, wisdom and authority. The staff are a brilliant mix of personalities and we have the utmost faith in their ability to provide an excellent standard of care for the children. There are a handful of staff who have been there for a good few years - collectively the team has a high level of experience. The daily feedback we receive at collection time is particularly thorough in the baby room - we have appreciated the level of detail the staff go to when writing in this book, and also in the files that record the children's learning'personal development. The free flow nature of play here enables the children to develop their own interests, which the staff then nurture. A happy and well-organised nursery - we love Noahs Ark!

Daughter loves attending and likes her key worker.

My little boy has been at Noah's Ark for just under a year and it has been fantastic. He loves going to nursery every day, so much so that he doesn't want to come home! The staff are all caring, loving and great with the children, they all genuinely love being around the kids. I am constantly surprised with the things my little boy tells me about that he has learnt at nursery, shapes, days of the week, colours, etc. Importantly, I can go to work every day and not worry about him because I know he is in the safest/loving hands.

My daughter has been very happy at Noah's Ark where she started full time from one year old. I have been impressed by the creativity of displays and the variety of play activities laid on for the children including sports and yoga. Communication about my daughter's progress and development has always been forthcoming, and I have had the benefit of taking books, and toys home from the nursery and my daughter loves singing and reading which I can attribute to staff efforts at the nursery to involve them in fun activities that she's been interested in. The nursery has in many ways prepared my daughter for preschool and beyond by helping develop a sense of herself early on she will sit down for story time and has become more independent here. All the staff including the chef who prepares a diverse range of healthy meals are great communicators and expert handlers of babies and toddlers moods, and all their related phases including toilet training!

They have been taking a very good care of her. They supported me and her extremely well. She is happy there and very attached to her teachers.
