The Day Nursery Rawreth

Thank you

Our son has been going to the day nursery for the last 4 years, the staff in that time have been such a key part in his growth and development. They know the children individually and tailor their approaches based on each need. Over the last year the pre-school room have encouraged independence and getting him ready for school life. The communication and flexibility has always been so helpful.

I want to start by saying that the staff themselves are fantastic. They are caring, nurturing and genuinely committed to the children in their care. In the four years we have used the nursery, we have had only two minor issues with the service, and on both occasions these were dealt with appropriately.

Unfortunately, my concerns are with the ownership and management of the nursery, and the direction in which the nursery has gone over the last few years.

When we first joined, it felt as though the owners took real pride in the nursery and invested time, effort and money into providing a good experience for the children and families. That no longer feels like the case. Increasingly, the nursery appears to be being treated as a cash-generating business for the owners. With facilities stripped back. It is sad but I wouldn't willingly choose to send another child to this nursery as I can see this situation decline further.

The best nursery! Every member of staff is an asset to each and every child. My daughter has blossomed at this nursery and continues to do so. She loves coming here, she is continuously learning, the staff put so much effort in to all their creative activities and she comes home with the biggest smiles! A truly lovely safe environment.

Since joining the nursery in January, she has grown in confidence and I thank the team working with her daily for their support, guidance and comfort they have provided.

My eldest son attended the day nursery and when I found out I was expecting again there was no question as to what nursery I wanted my youngest son to attend. All of the staff are so kind and friendly and welcome the children with open arms. Both of my boys have absolutely thrived here and love it as much as I do. I couldn't recommend The Day Nursery enough, it really is the best!

I honestly could not speak more highly of the team at The Day Nursery. My daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 9 months old and each room she has been in has helped her grow and flourish. She joins big girl school in September and will be sad to leave all of her much loved 'teachers' from the day nursery behind. The moments and updates you receive on the app during the day is always welcomed and gives me those reassuring insights that every parent enjoys.

My daughter has been attending The Day Nursery now for over a year and we have had an overwhelmingly positive experience. Staff are so attentive and caring and help to make sometimes difficult drop offs much easier. My daughter has a great relationship with her key worker and this makes the transitions between home and nursery very smooth. Updates are given throughout the day via the app which helps keep parents in the loop. The outdoor environment is second to none and one of the reasons the nursery was so appealing to use as prospective parents. I look forward to see the progress my child continues to make in the rest of her time here.

The day nursery is amazing, both of my girls have attended here, and my youngest still attends. I originally chose the nursery because of the beautiful setting, huge outdoor space, the home from home feel that you get from inside and how I see the staff with the children. They go above and beyond for the kids, they get to know each child so personally and my kids genuinely love it here. Both my kids grew really attached to Nicky one of the nursery nurses, and they love going in to see her, even my eldest now when she comes to pick ups. The food menu is great and they get such a variety of different food, breakfast lunch and dinner. The office staff Chelsea and Jess or so lovely and are always happy to help. I'm so happy I chose the day nursery, for what can be a really nerve wracking time for any parent to send their child to nursery it has made me feel so at ease to know they are so loved and cared for there. Couldn't recommend it enough.

Thank you so much to the Day Nursery Staff, would most definitely recommend! Xx

The management team are always helpful and accommodating, and the staff are friendly, nurturing, caring, and fun. We are incredibly grateful to The Day Nursery for the care and support they provide.

My son has been attending The Day Nursery for nearly 2 years now. He attends two days a week and looks forward to going each day. The improvement in my son's development is amazing. Each week he surprises me with something new. The staff go above and beyond with everything they do from keeping me updated with his progress to making my son feel special. I would 100% recommend this nursery to everyone. The staff are more than amazing.

My daughter has been at the day nursery for almost a year after moving to the area and having been at a previous setting from very young. She settled very quickly and the staff have been amazing, it is home from home for her and she is so excited to see staff and her friends everyday. She enjoys the range of activities offered at nursery and we are continually updated on what she is doing through the day. Highly recommend

We've seen such a lovely progression in her development - from new social skills to growing independence and learning through play. Her key workers always keep us updated on her progress, which we really appreciate. The staff are caring, supportive, and genuinely invested in the children. It's a warm, nurturing environment and we're very grateful for the care she receives.

Our Foster child was lucky enough to have two mornings a week at your Nursery. She had experienced trauma and struggled with attachments. She absolutely loved it taking her shoes off and hanging her coat up on arrival. Everyone including the cleaner new her by name and they were all very positive and friendly. Reports from the Nursery were both thorough and helpful. When I collected her she was always very happy waving goodbye to all staff. I was very impressed with the snacks and lunches provided and she was able to try lots of new flavours and textures. She learnt so much in the short time she has been at the Nursery singing and using the actions for a wide range of nursery rhymes some of which she had heard at home, We would like to Thank you fo so muchr supporting her on her journey developing her identity and confidence.

Thank you so much you will forever be in our hearts and we can't as a family thank you enough!!! Xxxx

Thank you so much TDN.

My son has settled so well due to the immense efforts of the staff who go above and beyond. The management team are also very approachable and helpful. The kids have time outside whenever possible which is very important to me. The staff are very supportive and understanding.

Our son really enjoys coming to nursery, the staff are fantastic at everything. He was very upset at drop off when he first came to nursery but the staff not only got him smiling but reassured two worried parents with constant updates via the app.

My daughter has attended The Day Nursery since the age of 1; she is now 3 years old and loves it more-and-more every week! She has such a beautiful rapport with so many of the staff and has built strong friendships. I love the importance they place on play and time spent outdoors. I have also felt that I can approach the staff to discuss any challenges we are having with raising our headstrong toddler. Together, we were able to find the right time to tackle milestones like potty, rather smoothly! I can't speak highly enough of the Nursery and I'm so pleased we chose it! We're looking forward to seeing our 2nd child starting in September too - hope he loves it as much as his big sister. Many thanks to all staff :)
