The Manager and her team have been so incredibly upbeat and friendly over the past 3 months and my child has been having the best time coming into nursery. All of the measures they’ve put in place have been really well communicated and from what I can see, the changes within the nursery have been well managed and continue to support the children’s development and well-being.
Having been through it all in the school I work in, I really can appreciate the time, care and effort that has gone into this from the team both within the nursery and at head office - a big thank you from us!
The care, facilities are outstanding, and they learn so much too; wouldn’t have her going anywhere else. Thank you Lavenders!
My son really enjoys his time here at the nursery. I am a key worker and they have kept an excellent service going in very difficult circumstances. I am confident my son is safe, well cared for and developing at the nursery. All of the staff are very friendly and well trained. The management team are also excellent and the nursery is well run. They communicate development milestones and show progress against the learning framework using an app which I personally find very helpful.
Fantastic nursery for my son, I genuinely am not worried when at work, I get regular updates via the app and know he is in safe hands. Most definitely recommend.
I would highly recommend Lavenders Day Nursery to all friends and family. It is so very clear that staff enjoy their job and the impact this has on the children is immeasurable. Our son looks forward to Nursery and has built some fantastic relationships with peers and staff. The quality of food has allowed us as parents to feel confident that he is receiving a well-balanced diet, full of goodness and flavour. Regardless of the distance from our family home, there is nowhere else we would choose for our childcare.
We’re sad to be leaving!
Thank you to everyone at Lavenders.
The level of care and attention given to children is 1st class!
Developmentally focused and really prepare children for school. Could not recommend
Lavenders!
I am very happy with Lavenders. Staff, management and facilities are very good! Always extremely clean and smells of yummy food. The best nursery ever. Thank you, everyone.
We are very happy with the progress our son is making. He really enjoys his time at nursery and all the staff are incredibly supportive and welcoming.
Our daughter has certainly become more and more confident during her time with Lavenders Day Nursery. I've found the staff very attentive and have provided very good feedback on our daughter's progress. As a parent, I've found the app very useful in being able to get an insight into what activities our daughter gets up to during her day at nursery. I'm certainly very impressed how well she has embraced phonics and also her numeracy is coming on superbly. In summary, this nursery has been incredible.
We think Lavenders Day Nursery is wonderful. The opportunities provided for our little boy are fantastic and are giving him the best start to his education. We recommend Lavenders Day Nursery to anyone looking for childcare.
Lavenders Day Nursery has always shown excellent care towards our children. They always ensure they are happy and settled and will introduce bespoke/tailored incentives to make them happy when they have found something difficult/been unsettled. We will miss coming here when our youngest starts school.
You're all amazing, a big thank you!
Both my girls are attending Lavenders Day Nursery at the moment and I have always been pleased with the support and care they have been given. My eldest daughter will be starting school in September and I'm very happy that she has been given every opportunity that will enable her to have the best start for her schooling journey. My youngest daughter is always happy when I pick her up and I know she will have the same support and care given to her. Thank you to all the lovely staff, management and office staff.
The care at Lavenders is of a very high standard. My daughter gets so much from her experience there, they are great at using her interests to move her development forward and she is blossoming. The food is very healthy and she always eats it so it must be delicious. I always collect a very happy tired but content little girl.
My daughter loves Lavenders.
Clearly, some of your experiences at Lavenders have not met with the standards I’d expect and I’m pleased that I have been able to resolve some of these issues.

As parents, it's our responsibility to ensure our child is safe and taken good care of. After viewing three local nurseries we came across Lavenders and instantly felt comfortable.
The nursery is clean, their food menus are brilliant and the activities the children do are amazing. My son loves this nursery and has developed so much. It's the best decision we have made. We drop our son and we know he's in good hands.
The manager knows our child's name along with the other children. This shows she generally cares and meets all the needs of our children.
I recommended this nursery to my friends and they love it as much as we do!
So thank you to all the staff in Lavenders for making it the perfect nursery for us. We definitely recommend this nursery to parents!
We have been extremely pleased by the care and attention shown towards our daughter at Lavenders. Staff are courteous, considerate and kind and our daughter is very happy to go to nursery every day. The food is healthy and well prepared and the large garden is a real bonus.
My daughter loves attending Lavenders Day Nursery. It’s so exceptionally good, the staff are phenomenal and all so very kind and friendly. Her carer obviously looks after her very well and I can’t thank her enough.
I love the ParentZone app to keep me updated with my daughter's progress and it helps me with the development of my daughter.
My daughter loves all the activities, creative play and the outdoor play area. She makes really interesting things which I love her bringing home at the end of her day.
Lavenders has encouraged her food palate, the standard and variety of food provided is exceptional.
I can’t recommend them highly enough, they are great people who we will miss very, very much.
My son has been in Lavenders since he was one and he is now nearly three. He seems to have a great time at nursery and is learning lots. He has made close relationships with staff and peers and talks about them all the time at home. The nursery was excellent when I requested that he shouldn't wear shoes inside and it never seemed like a problem that I wanted 'special treatment' for him. In fact, I get the impression that they know each child and their needs very well. They were also so supportive when we started potty training and made my son feel confident and secure and handle it in no time. The staff also communicates really well with parents.
He eats like a king and takes part in so many activities which challenge him physically and mentally - it's a surprise he actually wants to come home at the end of the day! Go and see them, it will blow you away.
