Review from Amy T (Mother of Child) published on 25 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter is currently at Raindrops Day Nursery and started back in September when she was 10 months old. She adores going and all the people that work at the nursery are kind and caring. They provide support and notice when your child needs a bit of extra help, for example my child was not eating very well and they supported her through this and sat with her at meal times to ensure she had the support needed. She is now enjoying solids much more. The nursery provides engaging challenges for the children i.e. reading challenges which have really supported my child’s development. I would really recommend Raindrops to anyone, the nursery really is outstanding.

Overall Experience

Both of my children have been to Raindrops and one is still at the nursery. My daughter who had been there for two years had a great experience. She thoroughly misses preschool, her friends and teachers. She had a speech delay at the beginning and the nursery took precautionary action, even when it was no longer needed, it really goes to show how much support they provide. Both kids have an excellent time at the nursery and have built amazing bonds and relationships with the teachers and key workers. The management are great, always welcoming and very supportive of any family situations. The Senco who works with the management team has been an absolute star, in a time where we had the worst news a parent can imagine. The manager always comes out with a smile and is just great. I feel like we have known everyone there for such a long time and it feels great and reassuring that my children are under the care of such amazing staff at Raindrops. I could not recommend Raindrops enough!

Overall Experience

Raindrops is a lovely nursery. My daughter loves the staff there and she always comes out happy and tired from a day of fun and learning. When I went for a viewing, the staff were friendly, helpful and welcoming. The viewing gave me a positive feel for the place and my daughter has had a brilliant time there ever since.

Both my children have attended Raindrops Nursery. My eldest who is now at secondary school attended, 2011-2014 and now my youngest has been going since 2020. I can not recommend Raindrops highly enough. I am very happy with the service they provide and all the staff are so lovely and caring!

Review from Amy F (Mother of Child) published on 21 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Raindrops has been wonderful from day one. My daughter has attended since she had just turned one. It is an emotional time to leave your first child in day care, but the staff have always been amazing and so comforting to me and my partner. My daughter has consistently enjoyed being there and both her key workers have been so professional and supportive of us and my daughter's care routine. The communication is excellent and staff are always helpful.

Reply from Christine Chaffe, Owner at Raindrops Day Nursery

Thank you very much for your review, we are so pleased that your daughter enjoys nursery, I know that the Key Persons work extremely hard to know the children and this proves that they are communicating and working to make sure that they know exactly where the children are development wise and produce interesting resources to make activities fun and educational.

Overall Experience

My son started at Raindrops when he was 6 months, he turns 3 next month and he has thrived in ways I can only dream of. The staff are supportive not to only my son but to my family. I feel extremely lucky that my son has a place at this nursery and I cannot thank them enough for being a part of our lives.

Reply from Christine Chaffe, Owner at Raindrops Day Nursery
