My son started at Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) just before his first birthday and it's fair to say that I was very nervous to hand him over for the first week or so! The staff have all been so friendly and caring, from his key worker to the reception staff, they couldn't have done anything more to put me at ease and care for my son. I love receiving updates during the day and seeing what fun activities he has been up to. I especially love that he plays outside loads. He has been given so many new experiences at Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard), it's really helping his development. I couldn't recommend Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) highly enough, it's a fantastic nursery!
I can’t express how grateful we are to the team at Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) who have gone above and beyond over the past year. Keeping my son feeling safe, cared for and happy whilst the world’s been in turmoil. It has been priceless and we will always remember it. He loves to go to nursery, he’s happy when we drop him off and full of smiles when we pick him up. The standard of learning is extremely high. We are often entertained by the new things he has learnt and relays back to us. He eats more vegetables there than he ever would at home! He loves playing with the facilities and joining in the games arranged by the team in his room.The communication with management is excellent and they have really gone above and beyond to help us through this difficult time.
Thank you to the whole team for everything you have done and continue to do.
My son has been going to Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) since he turned one, he is now three and he absolutely loves it. He has made some super friends there and is always full of stories of what they’ve been up to. I also get to see a bit of it myself through the app they use to keep parents updated. He is learning a lot there, in particular he often sings songs to us that he’s learnt at nursery, which I love. They do lots of fun activities, playing in the garden, crafts, reading, messy play and lots more, certainly much more than I could do with him at home. Their help has really brought him along with potty training as well. All in all, I couldn’t be happier and I am so pleased knowing he is in such good hands. Excellent Covid-19 procedures too and good materials that helped children prepare for the return to nursery after lockdown last summer.
The well developed processes and procedures of Childbase, coupled with the fantastic staff at Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) makes it worth every penny. The nursery is not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. I can't recommend highly enough.
My son has been attending Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) for eighteen months now and it has been a lovely experience for us. Everyone there is so friendly, professional and lovely - always trying to help no matter what. The manager, receptionists and all rooms staff treat my son so well, they are always so caring and with a smile on their faces, which is so appreciated. They always remember our names like we are part of the same family. The food is homemade and nutritious, the menus always look amazing. Love the rooms, garden and all the toys/activities that staff comes up with. They really care about my boy which makes us so happy and confident that we found the best place for him to go until he starts school. Best wishes to you all.
Our child is happy and content, always wanting to go back to nursery to play with friends and carers.
The nursery also provides a lot of out of nursery activities that we can do at home which is brilliant.
Would recommend Cedars to everyone.
Both my boys have attended Cedars Day Nursery from the age of 12 months through to starting school and we have been so very happy with the care they received. Cedars is a very nurturing environment, where both my boys were very happy, had lots of fun, and felt safe. My views and concerns were always listened to and the staff are absolutely wonderful - they work very hard so that every day the children have lots of fun. It's a great environment, with wonderful garden space for each age group. My boys both left Cedars ready for their next big adventure at big school.
Our little one has been attending Cedars since last November, and from the moment we met the team till now, they have consistently exceeded our expectations. As a looked after child, we were concerned when he started, that having moved house just prior, that he would find the transition difficult. The team were keen to chat to us to understand our little's needs and to find ways to ensure he felt secure and happy in his new environment. They have been attentive to our needs, and particularly of our little one's, however, this is not unique to us. All the children are cared for, and the staff ensure each child's needs and development opportunities are consistently met to the highest professional quality. The two girls run an excellent team/nursery, and particularly in light of Covid have put in place robust measures to ensure the children and staff remain safe and secure. This is an outstanding nursey, and the children are flourishing in their care and development, we couldn't be happier!
Our daughter has been attending Cedars Day Nursery since February 2020 and I cannot recommend it highly enough. As our first child, picking a nursery seemed quite daunting, with different recommendations from different groups. We are delighted with our choice and she enjoys nursery so much she often doesn't want to leave. There is a long lead time to get a place (we registered 18 months ahead of needing a place), however, we were kept informed whilst on the waiting list and the process was fairly painless. The staff are very attentive, the variety of food is great and gives the children a chance to try new things. Her visits are supported with an app which tracks what she has been up to each day and provides peace of mind during the first few days.
Cedars Day Nursery (Leighton Buzzard) has a great feel to it as soon as you walk through the door. The staff are fantastic and the kids seem to have a great time. They are really helpful at attending to any of your child's' needs. Of all the nurseries we visited in the area, Cedars was the most professional and welcoming. We are very happy our son goes here.
I can’t express enough praise for Cedars. All their staff are and always have been fantastic. My child’s experience has always been pleasant, and she has always been happy there.
Staff are very caring, seem to take a genuine interest in my child's development, delivering a very personalised experience. Fantastic communications, updated individually and about wider issues regularly.
We are happy with Cedars Day Nursery, as we have seen a lot of development in our child. Our child enjoys her time at nursery, she looks forward to coming to nursery every morning. Each and everyone at Cedars are very caring and warm. Our child's welfare and development are the top agenda. Thank you very much.
I appreciate the frequent updates on parent zone as it's often my husband that drops my daughter off and picks her up. The staff are always enthusiastic and engaged and clearly have a good relationship with my daughter. I am a big fan of the garden area and how much time the class spend outside.
As a parent, I will miss the safety and security that Cedars Day Nursery has offered and my daughter will miss the many friends she has made there, as well as her key workers. She has hugely grown in confidence during her time there and often mentions staff and things she has learnt whilst at nursery.
My daughter has enjoyed being at Cedars for over 3 years. The staff are wonderful, very impressive food, lovely environment and wonderful outdoor space. She has grown enormously in confidence through going to Cedars and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
Great facilities, lovely location and dedicated staff. My son had a wonderful time, learning and having fun. Having meals provided was also a huge advantage. We were particularly pleased with how the team looked after our son - as he developed a lot through play and activities at nursery.
I have used the nursery for both my daughters now and have no complaints at all. They both loved the nursery and all the staff. I would most definitely recommend to anyone.
My children have had the best time at Cedars. We are amazed at how they have developed and we will be very sad to say goodbye. Thanks so much for all you have done.
My daughter always has a smile on her face when I pick her up from the nursery. Very pleased with the staff and all the varied activities they provide.
