Our daughter is happy, confident and became more independent. She is always busy learning, creating and exploring something new. This is a professional nursery with professional approach to all kids.
Grasshoppers is a lovely nursery with a real home from home feel. As a first time mum returning to work the staff have gone out of their way to help with the transition and my daughter has settled well. There is a real feeling of positivity and fun about the nursery and the staff all seem to be incredibly engaged and passionate about what they do. It's a very caring environment and all members of staff know every child across all of the rooms. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery and would like to thank Grasshoppers for the excellent service they provide. We are lucky to have found you!
Very friendly staff. Extremely accommodating when a day change required. Feels like 'home from home'.
I am a parent of three children, all of whom are at grasshoppers Nursery in St Albans. My children are extremely happy there and I am very pleased with the care they receive. The staff are excellent and provide a very individual and personal interaction with each child. I recommend this nursery to every parent I know. A professional nursery with a brilliant personal touch.
