Croft Day Nursery - Belvedere

Just wanted to share some feedback regarding our experience so far at The Croft Belvedere. Overall my sons transition into Nursery has been very positive. As a slightlysensitive child I was nervous about how he would settle and how we would manage with multiple milestones happening at the same time - return to work, start of nursery and start of school for older child.

The staff have been great at supporting him especially where he was unwell a few times at the start. They are always friendly, attentive and caring. Any issues are always handled with care and respect and every time we have been invited into the setting it is evident that they take real pride in their workMy son is very happy and thriving developmentally due to well planned activities and schedule. The experience has definitely helped elevate some of the pressure during this transition period for our family. Thanks again.

I am so delighted with my experience at Croft. They look after my son like family and he is happy and excited to go to nursery and is progressing so well with his physical and non physical skills. He is in the baby room and they have a great app where I can see what activities they do in a day and receive wonderful updates on his progress and funny things he does in they day. The staff are so kind and caring of the children and I love the events they organise for special days and holidays. Could not recommend more, 10 stars!

Our daughter is so happy at The Croft, she has been there since she was 7 months old and has thrived. The staff are wonderful, warm and incredibly caring. Their communication is excellent and we completely trust them. The food I provided is freshly cooked and she setting itself isn't too large, so it really feels homely:

Croft Nursery in Belvedere has been a fantastic experience for my son. He started in the Squirrel Room with Lily, who was incredibly caring and attentive. Now in the Badger Room, he's thriving thanks to Demi, Emily, and Aimee-supportive, nurturing, and deeply engaged in his development. As a working parent, I truly value the regular updates through their family app, including photos and milestones that keep me connected to his day. The nursery is beautifully maintained, clean and constantly improving, with new equipment and sensory activities that my son loves. Any concerns I've raised have always been taken seriously and handled with care. Jenny and Jo, the managers, have been incredibly helpful and responsive throughout our journey. I'm so grateful for the love and attention my son receives every day. Croft Nursery is a truly special place. A final thank you to the finance team-equally professional and responsive. There are many names I haven't mentioned, but I thank the entire team!

A really great nursery where both our daughter and now son have had wonderful experiences. Really good and caring staff. Both our children have been really looked after well. The pre-school prep was particularly good and helped with that transition. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

Amazing people work there. Always so happy & welcoming! Always willing to help! Great Nursery and amazing people. Have really helped develop my son. Really seen the difference from when he started a year ago!

The nursery ensure that I am always up to date with my child progress and ensure we know any changes to nursery

Thank you!

My daughter has blossomed since joining-her confidence, social skills, and curiosity have grown tremendously. The activities are creative and engaging, from learning through play to outdoor adventures, and it's clear the team puts so much thought into every day.

Highly recommend!

I trust the teachers 100% and I recommend this place enough

We noticed significant improvement in our child's speech, social skills, confidence, routine and we feel confident in the level of care provided.

My daughter has been attending the Croft since November 2022, she was only 11 months old then. This was the best decision we made as our daughter, who is now in pre-school, is thriving here. The staff is warm and caring, food is freshly prepared by a chef and all the rooms are well managed and clean. They do many planned and unplanned activities every week and children learn so much in a playful way. They do everything from reading, music, dance, fitness/ yoga, building good self-care and hygiene habits, independent play, sensory activities, building cultural awareness and so much more. My daughter loves going there, loves her teachers, has made so many friends and always comes home with a smile.

My son really enjoyed his experience at Croft Day Nursery - Belvedere and made so many new friends. The staff were very warm and made such an effort to make him feel welcome. He has learnt and developed so much in his time there and I would definitely recommend it.

Am so happy and I have peace of mind having my daughter at the nursery. The teachers are absolutely brilliant, My daughter always looks forward to going to her nursery. I recommend The Croft Day Nursery to every parent. 5 stars from me.

My daughter has been going to Croft Day Nursery-Belvedere since August 2022 and we’ve been so impressed! The facilities, staff, food, etc have exceeded our expectations. We get reports on what she has eaten each day, how long she’s napped, and the new things she is learning (including pictures). My daughter (18m) is always thrilled when we drop her off and seems like she’s had a truly full day when we pick her up. We couldn’t be happier with Croft Day Nursery- Belvedere!

My Granddaughter attends The Croft Day Nursery in Belvedere and she loves it! I pick my granddaughter up on a regular basis as well as my eldest grandchild that used to attend the nursery and staff have always been super welcoming and more importantly, the children always look happy and content. Even though I am not the parent I am always welcomed and communication is fantastic so I can relay all information back to her parents, in regards to my granddaughter's day. And my eldest granddaughter now loves to visit as well and come along with me to see all the staff that used to look after her, as she still talks fondly about the nursery.

The best nursery in the area, as I have visited a few before selecting the Croft Day Nursery. With limited spaces, we had to wait for a while to get a place and we are super delighted for our son to be part of the Croft family. Our son is looked after well and has a lot of fun with friends and staff that he sometimes does not want to leave the nursery in the evenings.

Our daughter loves going to the Croft Day Nursery, she has been attending for around eighteen months. The staff are all lovely and our daughter speaks very fondly of them (they also provide a good audience for her singing performances!). The activities all seem very fun and educational, we are very pleased with the progress our daughter has made during her time at the Croft. We are hoping to send our youngest daughter when the time comes.

This is my second child at nursery and I cannot fault them they are all great girls and get involved with the children. My little one has settled in nicely and I am very confident that she will be ready for Reception in Sep this year.
