Just wanted to thank the staff at Benfleet Nursery, they have all been amazing at looking after my children this year! They have also helped me with one of the hardest years I have had this year and I couldn't have done it without them!

Overall Experience

My experience has been very positive at Purple Lion Day Nurseries Benfleet. You can tell that the staff really work together as a tight knit team and the priority is all about the well being and development of the children. All the staff I have encountered have been friendly and it has been so lovely to see my child have a close bond with her key worker. My daughter is happy and has settled amazingly at the nursery. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. It is small but well run and I love the fact that there is an app to keep up to date with everything.

Review from Roxanne C (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Fantastic nursery and amazing staff! My 3 children have all attended Purple Lion Day Nursery. The eldest being 12 now and 7 years later I was so happy to find the setting had the same staff there. I honestly couldn't love this nursery anymore you get a home to home feeling as soon as you walk into the door. All staff know each child personally regardless of what room they are in. My youngest is the only one left at the setting now and I honestly can say I will be so sad when he leaves next year. Communication is fantastic from weekly updates to every single day when you go to collect you get updated on how much they have eaten, nappy or toilet changes and what they have done during the day. Not a day goes by where any of my children have not loved going to nursery and I know they are well loved and safe. I honestly couldn't say a bad word about Purple Lion and the staff I definitely think this is the best setting in the area and recommend it. Purple Lion will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Review from Danielle F (Mother of Child) published on 3 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child really enjoys coming to Purple Lion Day Nursery on a Thursday. The play leaders at the nursery are really friendly and helpful. The nursery maintains good standards. My child has developed both good communicational and physical developmental skills since attending the nursery. The children are really well fed and I love getting updates on the family app is the highlight of my week. I can keep calm and positive knowing that my daughter is being looked after whilst I'm at work.

My son has now been going to the nursery for a year and I couldn't recommend the Purple Lion Day Nursery Benfleet enough! He settled in so well and absolutely loves the staff, he has formed a real bond with them and as a parent it makes leaving your child a little easier when you see how happy they are! Thank you to all of the staff for everything you do.

My daughter started the summer of 2024 at 9 months old and straight away she was happy, content and loved going from day one.

She has been cared for by the baby room staff amazingly. Their commitment, understanding and rapport with other staff, parents and children is beautiful to see!

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending since 2023 and I am and have always been really happy with the care she receives here. The staff are supportive, engaging, caring and helpful. She enjoys going into nursery and telling me about her friends and all the things they have been doing during the day, which usually include arts and crafts, singing, dancing and playing in the garden. She loves showing off all the things she has made and displaying them at home. The nursery are very good with communication and keeping me informed through the app which is a big help.

Review from Petra B (Mother of Child) published on 21 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My toddler is attending this nursery and we couldn't be happier. He absolutely loves it and asks to go even on the days he isn't there. I was a very nervous mom sending my baby to be looked after by someone other than a family member but all the staff put my mind at ease and now I don't even get a "goodbye mommy" as he runs I the door and I am very happy leaving him. His speech has come on amazingly, his colours and numbers are fantastic and every day he is there, he surprises us with something new he has learned. With a new baby, I struggle to sit with him all day and do lessons, and they are teaching him far more than I have time to. He comes home happy, chatty and full of stories of what he has been up to, and he is only 2. I can't praise this nursery enough.

Signed, very anxious mom now very calm and happy.

Review from P G (Mother of Child) published on 21 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I can't recommend the Purple Lion Day Nursery highly enough to others. It is such a happy and caring place and like a second home to the children. All the staff know all the children very well, regardless of whether they are the child's key carer (we are greeted in the morning with smiles from everyone).

I must say that you are really doing a great job. You give attention to each child and make sure that each child in your class is able to learn. Really appreciative and very hopeful that together we will make this another successful year for our children. Teaching staff is very friendly and supportive.

My child has attended Purple Lions Day Nurseries Benfleet for some time now, and I love the personalisation that I feel having my child there. It doesn't feel

Like she is just another child, they always know what's going on and happy to work with you for the best needs of your child. I love the lengths they go to for extra curricular activities to help the children experience so much more. I would always highly recommended this nursery.

We couldn't be happier with Purple Lion Day Nurseries. The teachers are so caring and dedicated, creating a safe and stimulating environment for the children. Our child has grown in confidence and loves going to school every day. The communication from the staff is excellent, and we appreciate the thoughtful updates and insights into our child's progress. We feel truly lucky to be part of this wonderful community and wholeheartedly recommend it to other families.

Review from Sara T (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been attending the nursery since April 2024, from the start all of the staff have been incredible!!
My son was really clingy but has got a lot better, he gets excited to go in and loves all of the staff. He has come on so much since starting and is always coming home after learning new things.
The staff are so welcoming and friendly and I often see my son playing happily with them before he sees me.
I attended the Christmas event which was so lovely. The staff worked extremely hard and put on an amazing event for the children and families.

I am so pleased I picked this nursery and have recommended to other parents too. I wouldn't send my son anywhere else. Thank you so much for treating my son and looking after him like he's your own. You can tell in the interactions between my son and all the staff that they are so caring towards him. Thank you.

Review from Stacey C (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has attended this nursery for 2 years now. She was a little dubious to begin with but quickly fell in love with the staff and her surroundings. Although a smaller setting, this has worked well for my daughter. I can't fault the staff at all. They are all very kind, caring and aware of each child's needs and likes/dislikes. The manager is amazing. Having worked at the nursery and promoted internally, she really has a passion for the setting and ensuring she has the right staff to care for the children. There is always arts and crafts coming home and a rundown of what happened during the day. Lots of outdoor play/exploration and nutritious, healthy meals. Each year a Christmas party is held which my daughter has loved. Santa even made an appearance!

I regularly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for child care!

Overall Experience

Purple Lions is the most lovely welcoming nursery and I am so glad my son goes here. I have recommended this nursery to my friends and if I was ever to have any more children I wouldn't take them anywhere else. The staff are fantastic, kind real people who you can see genuinely care for the children. My son is very settled here and I will be sad to see him leave come August. Thank you Purple Lions for everything you do for our children!

Overall Experience
My son started in June and I was really nervous about leaving him but I shouldn't have been. The staff at Purple Lion Benfleet have been amazing they love and care for him more than I could ever had hoped for and you can see my son has the same affection for all the staff, especially the main carers in the baby room. They helped him settle in really quickly and he now gets excited to go when we leave home and happily goes in without looking back.

I highly recommend this nursery and the wonderful staff.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending Little Purple Lions Benfleet since the end of April. I've had no issues at all since the day he started. They have been extremely helpful and so caring since the day I dropped him off on his 1st day. He had progressed so much since starting and I couldn't thank all the staff/management enough for taking good care of my son when he attends. I can't thank everyone enough for all the support since day one. Bring on 2025.
