Both my children attend Breakfast Club and they enjoy going as the staff are really friendly and fun! The staff are very supportive and fun to be around, my children have never had an issue going into the club every morning.
Thank you for taking the time out to write a review for us; it means a lot to our staff team to read parent reviews and it helps other parents to make decisions about attending a BASC. Happy holidays to you and your family.
My only wish is it was bigger and could accommodate my son on more days.
Thank you very much for taking the time out to do this review for us. We are pleased to hear that your little one is enjoying his time with us. We pride ourselves on our partnership with parents and our homely ethos. We will be in touch regarding your wish for further provision. Many thanks once again.
This is such an amazing nursery. Both my children attend here. They are both developing fantastically. All staff are so helpful and friendly. I honestly couldn’t recommend this place more. Very happy with my children coming here.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our nursery. We are so pleased to hear how happy both of your children are at nursery, and our staff team will be thrilled to read your review. We hope they are both enjoying the new optimum nutritional menus! They seem to be going down a treat with all the children!
We are very pleased with the nursery and care given to my child. She loves it and never does not wants to go. Staff retention is always an issue with any business, but I feel this does not have a negative impact on her development.
Thank you for your review of our nursery. As you may be aware, we have been enhancing the setting and continue with our refurbishments. As a small nursery, we pride ourselves on the homely environment and strong partnerships that staff and parents build as their children transition through the...
They are keen to listen and ensure that my son is happy and settled.
He especially enjoys the art activities.
My son loves it there and can’t wait to go!
Thank you so much for taking the time out to review our nursery. We are so happy to hear how much your little boy is enjoying his time with us, and our whole team will be thrilled to hear this review. We look forward to sharing many more happy adventures this summer!
The nursery has been amazing with both of our kids. It’s so great to see how well our kids have developed their little personalities with the help of their key workers and surroundings. One of my main concerns with my (then one-year-old) son was how the nursery will settle him for his nap. However, they worked wonders; if only he goes down so easily for a nap at home! And it seems my 16-month-old daughter comes home from nursery learning new skills (for example feeding herself) and independence every day! The staff are all so caring for the children, and I know I don’t need to worry as they’re being very well entertained and looked after.
Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery, and we are so pleased to hear how much your little ones are enjoying their time with us. Our team will be delighted to know as parents you feel very reassured and happy about the high quality of care both children receive. We are excited about...
The staff are always keen to get the children into the outside area, which is safe, and fun and also encourages physical development and mental wellbeing.
My son has additional needs, and all the staff have been absolutely wonderful, encouraging him to develop new skills and socialise with others in his way.
Thank you for your kind words about our nursery and for taking the time out to write this for us. Our staff team genuinely love their role as nursery practitioners, and it is wonderful to know that parents see this special bond they build with all our little ones. Our strong family environment is...
We have been incredibly happy with our son's nursery experience since he joined in 2019. All of the staff are amazing, and you can truly tell they love the children. Our son comes home happy and full of lovely stories about his day, every single day. As a parent, knowing your child is happy and well cared for every day while you go to work is so reassuring. We couldn't recommend Shenfield Day Nursery enough.
What a wonderful testimonial! Thank you so much for writing this for us, and we feel immensely proud of the fantastic team here at Shenfield Day Nursery. We understand that as a parent choosing a nursery is a big decision, and we feel privileged when our parents choose us. Our aim is always to help...
We are updated with photos and information about the children's activities and development via the app. Their days seem to be varied, educational and fun.
We're really pleased with the nursery and feel that it is a homely, clean and safe environment for our children.
Thank you very much for taking the time out to write this review for us, and it is wonderful to hear that they are enjoying their time at nursery. We are so pleased that as parents you can see the commitment and professionalism of our team. As relatively new nursery owners, we have lots of plans...
Our children love going to nursery, and this is a testament to how great the staff are. Within the last few months, we’ve noticed a lot more varied activities taking place to keep the children entertained, and our eldest in the Tiggers room - loves Wednesday football! The nursery has also supported our son with his dietary requirements. We feel very at ease leaving our children at Shenfield nursery, safe in the knowledge they will be having fun with carers who the children really love to be with.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review our nursery. We are extremely proud of our team whose strengths include building strong parent/family relationships. It is lovely to hear that he is enjoying his Wednesday football sessions and the extra curriculum being introduced within the nursery....
The only reason why I didn't give 5-stars is that I hoped the baby's room went outside during the winter months more often. The outside space is quite basic and limited as well.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review for us and we are delighted to hear how well your child is progressing with their signing! Our babies enjoy outside time every morning and afternoon at nursery where they are encouraged to explore and play with the sandpit, forest area and with our...

My career in Early Education began in 2007 when I worked at a local nursery as an apprentice, I very quickly really realised that caring and supporting young children was my calling and over the years my passion for delivering exceptional childcare to young children and their families evolved. I am a very proud mum to 3 beautiful children who have taught me so much about parenting and raising children and how our interactions influence and impact children and how magical these early years are.
Due to personal battle of ill health in 2020 which lead me to study at The College of Naturopathic Medicine in London, I have gained have a wealth of knowledge in naturopathic nutritional therapy which aligns beautifully with my passion for creating curriculum delivery that supports the whole child inside out, from nutritious food, social, emotional & Mental wellbeing, feelings of safety & security, inspiring a love of learning, as well as creating awe and wonder in the world around them by building enriching and engaging environments & experiences for all children.
I am passionate about people, invested in mentoring and cheerleading my teams to reach their professional potential, as well as supporting families in any way I can.
It’s a real privilege to be part of your children’s lives; I love seeing their curiosity ignited and the joy they experience from learning new things and from the world around them! Shenfield Day Nursery is a lovely place to work; it’s super friendly and has a family feel!
I feel blessed to be able to try and make an impact in all the different children’s lives I will be working with.
