I could not fault this nursery or the staff if I wanted to - even at busy times when the staff are so busy they still have a smile and stop what their doing to update you on your child's day, the managers are always helping and stepping in when an extra pair of hands are needed. The chef is always happy and cooks such lovely meals and the children seem to love it it's really sweet to see them all sitting eating together. Everyone here makes me feel like my son is cared for, we love and appreciate everyone here and are proud to be apart of this amazing family thank you to you all
It is such a pleasure to read your comments, and yes are always happy to welcome the children and families into the setting. We aim to encourage development and learning in a home away from home setting and we are delighted you have observed and grasped onto our ethos.
As a single, full-time working parent, finding a nursery that not only cares for your child but genuinely supports you as well means everything. They have made my life so much easier, and I couldn't ask for more.
Since starting here, my son's communication skills have come on so much. His confidence has grown, his social skills have developed beautifully, and he now has so many little friends. Most importantly, he genuinely loves coming to nursery, which says it all.
Thank you for everything you do for me and my son. It does not go unappreciated.
Thank you so much, for your beautiful comments. Jemma and I are passionate about the role we play and always will ensure our children's care, learning and development is and remains paramount. We endeavour to make and maintain positive relationships with families and offer as much support as is possible.
All staff are welcoming and lovely. My child loves it there. Honestly gonna be so sad when in a few years he has to go to regular school. They are so patience with him not saying many words. I can genuinely feel the care for him from everyone there and the updates are 100% needed and something I look forward to.
Thank you so much for your comments - We try not to think about our children moving on, as most of us would be crying so often, instead we focus on ensuring they get the best care, learning and development opportunities whilst having the most fun, through their interest, with their peers and other role models.
Co-op nursery has been a great experience for me and my children, both my kids have had an amazing time in this nursery the staff are very sweet and professional, they pay so much attention to the kids and cater to every individuals needs helping them to reach their full potential.
Thank you for your review, having both of your children here has been amazing!!
I was very hesitant when my child first started, but they supported us from day one. Even with food, if my child asks for more, they happily give it. They keep the children engaged with a variety of activities, all thoughtfully tailored to support each child's development.
We had some concerns about our child, and they worked closely with us to address them. Now my child goes in happily and says "bye bye!"
There are CCTV cameras throughout, which gives great peace of mind as everything is secure and traceable if needed. They also use an excellent app that's regularly updated with details about meals, sleep, nappy changes, plus photos and activity updates twice a week.
They also offer discounts during specific months, which they announce in advance - giving parents the opportunity to book extra days at a reduced price.
Thank you so much for your review! We enjoy speaking to you and also supporting you with anything!!
Absolutely love this nursery! So happy I found them. The staff are all so kind and caring, they support my child in all ways possible and always keep me updated with his development. I have a 3 year old son, he has grown a lovely bond with the staff and they have a great toy selection that he loves playing with! :)
Thank you so much for your review! We are really happy that you are happy with us!
The food served is nutritional and varies week to week on a rotation which is good to enhance children's palates and discourage fussy eating
Thank you so much for your review on us! We are glad you are happy with the nursery.
It's been like home.
For me as it is for my son.
We always feel welcome safe and well taken care off.
I could not express my gratitude in words.
Thank you so much for your kind words, you are always smiling and your son comes in happy to find his friends and will regularly include me in conversations with them and other key people at the setting.
Thanks for making the settling period so easy! Your all great!
We are so delighted that you are already able to observe your child's development from early on. We do look at children as individuals and through play we support their development and learning. Thank you for your kind words.
Nursery's amazing, I have very clingy twins that have been there for a short time. All of the staff make sure they feel at ease once I've left, which makes me feel less guilty. They always end the day with big smiles on their faces and tell me what a great day they've had!
Thank you for taking time to give such lovely comments about the setting. It is a pleasure having them both here and keeping us on our toes whilst they explore their environment and make friends.
I am very happy with my daughter being in this nursery. We can see a big difference from when she first started until now. She has made a lot of progress in her development, especially with her speaking.
The management and team are amazing. I would like to say a special thank you to the nursery manager, Anne-Marie, and to the staff - Fatma,Shuhella, Aminah, Anaswara, Patricia ,Chloe and Moses. They are so kind and care for my daughter Sara , as well as the other children, so well. We truly appreciate .
Thank you so much for your comments, we also can see her confidence growing and her personality shining through. We also appreciate you so much !
My little girl grace has been coming here for a little while now and I have to say how happy and proud I am of the work you all do for her. Her eating has improved incredibly, she will eat anything you put infront of her. Awareness is 100x better when talking to her she gives alot more eye contact now. For anybody reading the reviews my grace is on the spectrum but since coming here the improvement with everything has gone up 10 fold. Thank you for everything you do not only for grace but for all those lovely kiddos in there. John
Thank you so much for your review! We are so happy when we observe how far she has come.
We value the excellent daily communication regarding our child's mood, activities, and milestones.We highly recommend this nursery to any family looking for a nurturing, safe, and professional environment.
Thank you so much for your review. Having them here and watching them learn and develop is amazing!
Amazing nursery with great staff. Everyone was so helpful and kind and really bonded with our two year old twins. We were only there for a month but the kids really loved it. I can't recommend them more from our short but sweet experience.
Thank you so much for your review, we are so happy you were able to experience what we have to offer, and create a relationship with the staff, even though you were here for just a month, we miss you all already.
My daughter has been here since she was 7 months old. She's now 14 months and the best review she could possibly give is her excitement and hand waving when she meets the nursery staff every morning. I know she's safe and happy here.
They're also great at updating the app so I always know what her day was like. There's lots of activities every day which she seems to enjoy, and the staff share photos on the app as well. Food is varied and she has been supported to learn how to eat independently.
Overall, I know she's safe and happy here, and that's what matters to me.
Thank you so much for your review, we have also observed her grow and develop with some much confidence. She is always smiling whilst exploring, socializes comfortably with the team and her peers and is know doing the queens wave when coming in and leaving.
My daughter has been coming here for over 3 years now, amazing staff, so kind, my daughter loves everyone. Her key worker has given me advice on things I needed guidance with at home (getting off dummy, staying in own bed etc) and I am so grateful. Fantastic support, thank you!
Thank you for this review! We are always here to support you and to continue to see them grow.
Our baby is very happy with the nursery so we are happy too! :) He is progressing a lot. The staff is very friendly and the place is safe. We constantly get updates on the app as well. Thank you so much for looking after our little boy!
Thank you so much for your comments on Day Nurseries. It is really exciting when we see our young ones developing new skills and achieving their milestones through fun activities.
Amazing staff and management. A lot of different activities during his staying there :)
Thank you so much for your review, it has been a please watching them develop relationships, grow, interact and engage with staff and peers.
We love this nursery! It's so clear that our children are loved by the people here and they love them in return. The nursery workers really get our children and do activities to encourage skills and I can see the progress at home. It feels like a really happy place.
Thank you so much for your review. The staff have a good understanding of how their key children like to learn through communication with parents, observations and interactions and will encourage development through planned activities which in-cooperates their interests.
Friendly staff and they really care about the children.
My son enjoys attending the nursery and have no complaints thus far.
My son attends the nursery twice in a week and we have been attending for nearly a year.
Thank you so much for your review, we all appreciate your comments and opinion as it helps us to improve and develop. I personally enjoy the chats we have when you come in on those 2 days a week.
