Noddy's Nursery School (Beaumont Road)

We sent our son when he turned one, to the nursery so I could return to work and we could not be happier with having chosen Noddy’s. The attention to care and development is of the highest standard and his carers are so fantastic. He now starts giggling with excitement each time we drop him off now. Within a week at Noddy’s, he had learnt how to walk and pick up books and explore. The different activities they do, including the painting, messy trays and music classes are brilliant. The outdoor area is soft astroturf so not hard if they fall over and they are also taken for adventure walks too. We love the Parent App where we get updated with what they have eaten, of which often feature ‘had seconds’ (the chef is renowned for their cooking), how long they have slept for, nappies and a summary of their day, together with photos, it is such a treat. Our son has really thrived at Noddys and we are thrilled.

Our son has been at Noddy's for a year now and has loved every minute of it. He's learnt so much and constantly amazes us with new sounds, actions and expressions that he has learnt each day. The food the kids eat is incredible - everything made fresh, on-site. The new chef is amazing! The comments and notes we receive on the app are both amusing and also reassure us of the good time he's having. I've always found his key carers to be incredibly patient, calm and engaging and if they are ever away or have a day off, whoever is covering them is always really well informed and equally brilliant. What amazed me, was that Noddy's remained open (at their Gwendolen Avenue location) during the Covid-19 lockdown, to the children of key-worker parents, which I think is highly admirable. Now they are fully open, my son has settled right back in and is loving life. I will always recommend Noddy's to any parent.

My daughter joined Noddy's at 9 months old. She is now 4 years old. Soon she will start school. We will be so sad to say farewell. Noddy's has been excellent throughout. Every day there she has learnt something new or achieved a new skill from talented staff who genuinely care deeply for the children. A big shout out too for the chef and her delicious home cooked food! Lots of outdoor play to work up an appetite.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Noddy's to anyone that might be interested in a nursery place.
