Grasshoppers Day Nursery (Aylesbury)

As a first-time parent returning to work full time, I didn't realise how anxiety-inducing it would be when your child also starts nursery. It's heartening that Grasshoppers took such thoughtful steps to ensure a smooth transition for my little one. Early preparation - Grasshoppers went above and beyond by settling my child ahead of my return to work. Emotional support - Their kindness in providing me with tissues while my baby happily played with other children. The emotional support during this transition was invaluable. Happy little one - It's delightful that my child now smiles every day and willingly goes to their key worker. Loving care - Knowing your child is in safe hands and receiving loving care provides immense peace of mind. From my experience, it's evident that they prioritise both the child's and parent's well-being! Thank you so much to all the staff!

Thank you to the Grasshoppers staff.

I’d highly recommend Grasshoppers Nursery to all prospective parents. Both of our children enjoyed their time here and our youngest experienced all four stages of her early years at the nursery. The facilities are extensive, the staff are caring and welcoming and it has a personal feel to the care for the individual child. We believe that both children felt ready to start infant school after their time in pre-school at Grasshoppers and this aided a successful transition.

My toddler loves Grasshoppers Day Nursery Aylesbury and we as parents think it is such a lovely place for him. The team in ladybirds have been fantastic and we really appreciate how they genuinely care for our little boy. I cannot thank them enough for being patient with me when we first started and helping my little be confident without his parents around.

We have been sending our daughters to Grasshoppers since our oldest joined the Caterpillar's room at 10 months old in 2015. During that time we have always been happy with the standard of care provided for them. The staff are always setting up great activities and learning opportunities for the children, they’re always friendly and willing to chat about the day at pick-up. The nursery is well run with frequent communication provided to parents. We would recommend this nursery to others.

I highly recommend this nursery. My daughter started in the baby room and is about to graduate from the pre school room. All staff have shown a warm and welcoming approach and demonstrated a high standard of care. I believe the nursery is well led and staff are friendly yet professional at all times. Communication has always been good. My child was encouraged and supported with her individual development and her needs were always met. They have always provided a wide range of activities with a great range of resources and equipment to support children’s play and development.

Neither of our daughters are ever unhappy about going into nursery. Both of them loved their time here and our eldest adjusted really well going into reception as I believe they had all the confidence required. Thanks to all the staff for your support.

We are very happy we chose Grasshoppers Day Nursery for both our girls. They both enjoyed their time with you. They have learned, played and grown with you and they have both developed into lovely young ladies thanks to the very good start they had with you. Once again thank you all for the experiences and kindness they have received from you all. Wish you all the very best for the future.

My daughter has been at Grasshoppers Day Nursery since she was 9 months old and thoroughly enjoyed her time here. Starting nursery during the pandemic was an unsettling time, but Grasshoppers were brilliant at keeping everything as normal as possible for the children. The staff are all always very friendly and helpful. My daughter has grown in confidence throughout her time at Grasshoppers and always looks forward to her days attending nursery. The app is helpful in keeping parents up to date with food, sleep and activities, especially in the younger rooms. I am pleased that my daughter is now well prepared for starting in a school environment - thank you!

Both my boys have gone through Grasshoppers, I cannot say enough good things about the staff and the nursery. I know when the boys were there they were cared for to the highest level and I had no worries about dropping them off for the day! They have loved every minute of being there and learnt so much plus tried lots of new food which they wouldn’t touch at home! Thank you to the whole team and we will miss you all.

My son has been at Grasshoppers Day Nursery since he was only five months old and I would absolutely recommend this nursery. The teams in all rooms, as well as reception and management, are wonderful. Not only is this fun for my son but Grasshoppers Day Nursery have encouraged his development no end. The daily updates on the app are super helpful to manage routines (sleep, meals etc) but I always love any picture snapshots and also the monthly learning stories.

My grandson has been at the nursery since being a toddler and it has always been a very positive experience, both for himself and me as a carer. The staff have always displayed professional behaviour, yet they are warm and caring. The staff provide interesting and exciting activities for the children and they always endeavour to understand each individual's needs. My grandson has developed a passion for learning and is provided with plenty of opportunities to learn new things. Through his experiences at Grasshoppers, I feel he is well prepared for when he starts school in September.

I have sent both my children to Grasshoppers Day Nursery and can’t praise them highly enough. They provide a caring, supportive and friendly environment for both the children and parents. My eldest child is in preschool and is always excited to go in and loves telling me about all the different activities they’ve done throughout the day. My youngest is in caterpillars and has come on leaps and bounds since starting. The only reason we are moving is because another child base nursery has opened closer to home. I wouldn’t trust any other provider. Thank you Grasshoppers for providing such a lovely nursery experience for all of us.

We visited multiple nurseries and the decision was easy as we found overall experience of visiting Grasshoppers Day Nursery very good as the staff were awesome and explained to us all the details which were important. Our daughter has now spent over 3 months at the nursery and she settled literally within a week and I believe one of the reasons for that is the super friendly and caring staff. Every morning without fail our daughter is welcomed with a big smile from each and every staff. Also, regular updates on meals, sleeps, activities and milestones via a mobile app is very helpful. Evening briefs are again very helpful. Our daughter is happy and so are we as parents.

My daughter joined Grasshoppers Day Nursery in August 2022. The team and management are both super friendly and the atmosphere is always welcoming. I was slightly worried about her settling in as she was very shy towards the beginning however now she loves going to nursery and her confidence has grown. The bond between her and her key worker is fantastic and they have built such a great relationship since she has joined. The online portal is absolutely fantastic and so useful for parents and you are able to keep track of your child's progress and also see what they have been doing in the nursery. I would highly recommend Grasshoppers Day Nursery for anyone who is looking for a nursery for their little one.

My child has been attending Grasshoppers Day Nursery since November 2022. The staff took their time to help her settle into a new environment and she now runs in happily! She loves her keyworker and all the staff, and it's so lovely that every member of staff knows your child and how they're getting on even if they aren't in the room. I like that I get regular updates through the app, and they were happy for me to ring at any time when she was settling in (or if she's a bit unsettled even now) to see how she was getting on. I would definitely recommend Grasshoppers to friends and family.

We recently moved our 2 year old from a different nursery to Grasshoppers Day Nursery (Aylesbury) and up to this date we are very happy with the change. Our daughter seems to settle in very well and is already separating from us with confidence and exploring her new setting. She is getting involved in a wide variety of activities and play and we get snapshots of her almost on a daily basis which is highly appreciated. We also get feedback when we pick her up about her overall day. The staff is very polite, friendly and really passionate about their jobs, they are very good at bonding with the children and keeping the parents updated. Although she’s been there for only one month, my daughter is excited about going to nursery and more involved in activities, and obviously, this is reassuring for us parents. I do find the fees quite high, but I guess childcare is expensive and pretty much everything these days.

My daughter has been at Grasshoppers Day Nursery (Aylesbury) since October 2022 and she absolutely loves her time there. The nursery and every single member of staff are so warm and welcoming, they make every effort to get to know each child and parents. My daughter is absolutely thriving at nursery, the staff in her room are amazing at personalised care and her development. I would recommend Grasshoppers Day Nursery in a heartbeat because three months in and we are so happy with our decision to send our daughter to this nursery.

My son has been at Grasshoppers Day Nursery (Aylesbury) for the past year. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone. The space is lovely and kept clean, there are plenty of toys and great outdoor spaces. The staff are excellent giving great personalised care. They all get to know the children and are aware of their individual needs, likes and dislikes. They tailor the learning accordingly and the app is great to keep parents up to date.

Grasshoppers Day Nursery has been truly outstanding. Both of my children have loved their time here. Each and every staff member is welcoming and really make the effort to know each child. This definitely made such an impact on my children's settling in, the moment they walk in through the front door they are greeted by an ever-friendly face and this continues until they get to their room. Routines are well established and the children know what they are doing. They are valued and given responsibility, whilst being in top-quality care. I always find out what has happened in the day, through a handover from staff but also from excited children wanting to share their achievements of the day. Grasshoppers is a family and feels like a warm cuddle when you walk in. I highly recommend Grasshoppers to anyone who is after an excellent setting for their children.
