My daughter started the nursery at six months and has settled in really well. The staff in her room are lovely, and she smiles whenever she sees them. Her development has moved on a lot since she has been there, and I can see how much so loves playing with the staff and other children. She also loves the food! The manager is also lovely and so understanding of any concerns or questions.
Thank you for your review; we really appreciate it!
My son absolutely loves coming into nursery and is always happy to walk into his room in the morning and has such a bond with his keyworker. He had gone in leaps and bounds, and his confidence has grown since moving up into the room he’s in now. Getting photos and updates from him almost every day he’s in (sometimes more than one!) It is always an absolute highlight and gives me such an insight into his day. The staff are brilliant at keeping the app up to date, which is so helpful, and we are absolutely gutted to be leaving this term!
Thank you for your review; we really appreciate it!
Overall, the experience has been good so far. The staff are very passionate, and I really appreciate the use of the app. The only thing for improvement is the fact that we need to keep taking days off work due to short of staff in the nursery.
Thank you for your feedback; we really appreciate it. Unfortunately, as with many sectors across the country, Early Years has been affected in the last 12 months by severe staff shortages. We are working hard to ensure that we have well-qualified and experienced staff at all of our sites. Thank you again for your feedback.
Both my girls enjoy going to nursery so much; they swiftly settled into such a happy and caring environment. You get the feeling staff do really enjoy their job. There are regular updates on activities, both group activities and individually, through the app and weekly newsletter, and the key worker is always happy to chat at pick up/drop off.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your lovely comments!
She looks forward to nursery and is always happy at pick up.
I cannot fault the management team; they are always available and responsive to any question or request.
Thoroughly recommend Sunhill Day Nursery.

They are prepping her for school starting in September, and I'm most impressed with what she is learning.
We appreciate you taking the time to write this review and for your lovely comments! Our nursery teams ensure that we provide the best preparation for school!
The always menu looks really good, and the food we would be happy to eat ourselves. The rooms are well laid out with everything at child level, and the garden has lots of age-appropriate toys for each class. It is lovely to be able to go inside the classrooms now that the restrictions have been relaxed.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your positive feedback!
Staff ensured that she is settling well and kept us informed frequently.
She is well looked after and is great that you can check virtually her daily activity.
Overall, a great place; I will recommend it.
Thank you.

I am very pleased with the nursery. The manager is fantastic and is dealing with her staff very well. My daughter is very happy in the nursery, she has been going there for more than 3-years now. Food is cooked freshly every day with very healthy options. I would highly recommend this nursery.

The nursery and staff are great, my daughter loves attending. However, as new bookings are now restricted to 8 am-1 pm, 1 pm-6 pm or 8 am-6 pm, I would be unable to recommend the nursery, or send any of my future children there.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your feedback!
Transition to new nursery room has been well supported.
Staff are helpful and friendly, and have built good relationships with him.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for such positive comments!
Impressed with the range of activities my baby has been involved with. Staff are attentive and helpful. Would prefer a bigger and more natural outdoor space (grass/trees), but that is restricted by location.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for your feedback!
I was initially very nervous about putting my then 2-year-old into the nursery as she had not socialised much with other children her own age due to Covid. Sunhill really put my mind at rest and sent regular updates via their app, which is very easy to use. This didn't stop after her settling week, and I love seeing how she is getting on. The nursery was able to be flexible to my working schedule, which is a massive help for me getting the balance right between home and work. The lady in the office communicates regularly with parents and is always a welcoming face as you come into the building. It's very secure, and she runs a tight ship! My daughter has been going to Sunhill for nearly six months now, and she has a wonderful time there. The key workers in my daughter's room are so attentive, and I can tell they know my daughter well. They are all amazing and do such a wonderful job; they are a credit to the nursery. I would definitely recommend it.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your feedback! Our staff always work above and beyond to provide the best care, and we are delighted that your daughter has settled well!
Since starting here, my son has developed very well. He has become a lot more social, and his speech has come on a massive amount. He always enjoys himself, and I am kept up to date with lots of photos and information about his day. The staff are very friendly and know exactly what they are doing. We are incredibly happy with the service we have been provided here.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review and for such positive comments; we really appreciate it! We aim to keep parents constantly updated throughout the day, and we are delighted to hear that your son is developing well!
We have been so impressed with the quality of care for both our children at Sunhill. Our daughter is now in school, but our son still attends, and despite moving away from the town, we chose to keep his place here. Tmanager has achieved wonderful things in uncertain times, the staff are so attentive and caring, and he is really happy there. We couldn’t be happier with Sunhill and will be really sad when our son leaves next year.
We love getting updates on the app about her day. My only criticism is that we never seem to receive the ones from later in the day/dinner time.
Overall, we’re very happy.
We are so happy to hear you are pleased with the nursery, and your daughter has settled in very well. I can only apologise if the app isn't updating. Everything is added and published, but we do have a few internet issues - this is being resolved soon, so you should see an improvement!
My other one just started and is with a very happy sentiment that I see him going to his carers who go above and beyond to make him feel comfortable and happy in this sensitive time of being away from his parents in a new environment.
Couldn't recommend this place more! People, there are absolutely fantastic!
My son (now two and a half) has been at Sunhill since he was 4-months-old and they have done a terrific job at looking after him. I was so worried initially about leaving him there when he was a baby as he suffered terribly with severe silent reflux and a milk allergy. At the time, we were struggling to get him into a routine with his sleep, and he required medication throughout the day and a special dairy-free formula, but they all took it in their stride and took great care of him. The staff worked with us as best they could while we got to the route of his health issues and adhered to our guidelines whilst trying to get him into a routine. Fast forward to now, and he is thriving! Despite being on a very restrictive diet (no gluten, dairy, soya or citric acid), he is still provided with a variety of healthy food and doesn't miss out on anything. He's very sociable and happy there and has formed close bonds with some of the careers and his peers. I would definitely recommend Sunhill.
Very happy with the level of care provided. I'm kept updated with pictures and notes throughout the day of naps, meals and activities. The staff are all very friendly and professional. They provide a high level of care but also work hard to provide activities to engage and nurture. Able to fit around shift patterns and term time only. Easy to park and collect.
My son joined Sunhill back in June 2020 at the start of Covid so a very difficult situation for everyone especially a first time mum leaving their little one for the first time. All staff have been so professional from day one, friendly and bubbly even in this tough time. My son has settled in so well and has come on leaps and bounds and that is due to the staff at Sunhill. He is so happy here. A massive relief for us.
