Our experience at play away over the last few months has been amazing trusting your child with strangers is the hardest thing anyone has to do, but the staff all across the nursery have made us feel like family everyone knows our little girl name people that don't even work in her room know her and she loves every single person there. never has she not wanted to go in, she gets excited when we drive in if anything sometimes she doesn't want to leave.

From initial contact through to today's wonderful open day every communication with staff members at Play Away Day Nursery has been fantastic! Promt, professional and full of care. Staff know children's individual need, care plans and personalities so well. Our child loves coming here and smiles when she sees the room staff. Her development since starting has been outstanding and we are grateful for the care they show and exciting activities they run. The safeguarding and medical care training and care shine through. Thank you.

Play Away was the only nursery we viewed before signing up our son when he was coming up to 9 months and haven't regretted it. Now, 2 and a half, our son really thrives. Explores with new food, enjoys all the interaction with other children and all the activities. We're soon to sign up his sibling. The staff have been so supportive and accommodating when he's been poorly or has sad wobbles but with their help, he's come on leaps on bounds.
Thank you for your lovely review! We appreciate your kind words about the nursery and the team.
We have had a very positive experience here having moved one of my children from a different local nursery. Lots of opportunities for children to develop. Staff are friendly and supportive. Would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are glad to hear about your positive experience.
My son was warmly welcomed in the babies room when he started the nursery. The nurses were very nice and helped him settle quickly. The transition into further rooms was well organised and my son was happy to move. In each room the staff are friendly and supportive and my son is happy staying here when Mummy goes to work.
Thank you for your lovely review! It's great to know that the transitions between rooms were well-organised and that your son happily adapted to the changes.
She loves nursery now - which is a lovely feeling - knowing she is well cared for when we drop her off and that she will have such a fun day.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are delighted to hear that your little one enjoys their time at the nursery.
The staff are amazing and the facilities are second to none.
If/when we have a 2nd child we won't think twice about sending them here.
Thank you for your lovely review! We are delighted to hear that your daughter loves coming to Play Away and to know that she's had a positive experience since she was 9 months old, and at 3 years old, you continue to have a great impression of our nursery. We look forward to the possibility of welcoming a second child from your family in the future.
Helpful and happy staff who are well organised. Staff make an effort to inform us of our son's behaviour and developments and always have time to hear our concerns. Staff are always vigilant in ensuring our son's dietary requirements are met. All staff make an effort to learn our son's name and always say hello in passing.

My children are very well looked after at Play Away and their key workers have always gone above and beyond. The continuity of care is fantastic and it's been the same staff for both my children. I would and do recommend this nursery.

Both my children have had the best start to their early years experience thanks to Play Away. It is such a warm and welcoming environment, full of fun and learning. Every member of staff takes the time to learn about the individual children and this shines through. I can go to work knowing my children are safe, cared for, and having lots of fun. I would recommend Play Away to all of my friends.
