Review from Suk H (Mother of Child) published on 17 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I highly recommend St. George's childcare for its nurturing environment and dedicated staff. The curriculum is designed to foster creativity and social skills through engaging activities. Staff are attentive and create a safe space where children can explore and learn at their own pace. The strong emphasis on play-based learning helps children develop essential skills while having fun. It's a wonderful place for young minds to grow!

Review from Naomi R (Mother of Child) published on 11 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We were very sad to say goodbye to St George's last month. Our daughter has spent many happy years there and built some wonderful relationships both with the children and the staff.
If we were lucky enough to have another child, I wouldn't hesitate to apply for a place at St George's again. The staff are great, as are the facilities and we never had any reason for concern during our daughter's time there. They are always putting on lovely things for the children and taking them out to new places as part of their learning and developing.

Thank you to all the staff for their devotion and commitment to looking after our children so brilliantly.

Overall Experience
Such an amazing nursery. They always have such good activities for the children and have different variations of things to do with them. My daughter absolutely loves it there. The food is very healthy and we always get a summary of what has been eaten and how long they've had for nap.

The staff are super friendly and they have a very good ratio of staff to children in each room.

Overall Experience

Little Dragons, my son has started now and previously it was my daughter. All the staff there are absolutely amazing, four staff in particular, and their few new staff as well. My daughter, she insists on going there to visit Little Dragons even now, that is how much she enjoyed it there. My son is already falling in love there, their standard is still the same. I can even say the playground looks better than before.

Overall Experience

Excellent nursery, the whole team at St George’s are truly amazing - we couldn’t recommend enough. From day one they have made us feel very welcome, our little boy settled in nicely with a smile at the end of every day! The garden is excellent, with a selection of mud kitchens, ride on cars/bikes and climbing frames! The rooms are bright, fun and always have engaging activities going on. A lot of love has gone into ensuring all the children are fed well, safe and happy! Ourselves and our son will miss seeing everyone’s friendly faces. Thank you all for your support.

Review from Nina B (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I would 100% recommend St George’s. My two girls have been nurtured and supported by kind staff. The outdoor space is fantastic with lots of room for the children to play. The kitchen produces fresh food every day. The staff work hard to make each day interesting with lots of different themes and activities whilst also ensuring children have space and time to be creative and have fun. My youngest daughter is off to school now; she couldn’t have had a better environment to thrive in before starting that next adventure. We will definitely be booking their holiday club so we can keep feeling connected with the St George’s family.

Review from C L (Mother of Child) published on 30 August 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started St George’s in May and she absolutely loves it there. I was so anxious about going back to work and leaving her but the team in the baby room (squirrels) are so kind, compassionate and fun-loving that she now smiles when my husband drops her off. Her key worker has been amazing with her and I trust her unreservedly. They are very experienced staff and helped with the transitions and getting her used to eating and sleeping in a new environment. They have excellent systems in place to make my life as a parent easier. Nobody has a bad word to say about St George’s in the community (I had to go on the wait list when I was 8 months pregnant to guarantee the place as it’s so popular) and I couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery. Thank you to the wonderful team in Squirrels.

Review from B A (Mother of Child) published on 30 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has had the best time in Badgers! We, as parents, and our daughter, have had the most amazing experience. The team are so thoughtful, and they have the most incredible energy! We felt like she was so well cared for and that they all really made the effort to know everything about her, especially the room leader. The handovers were fantastic; it was like talking to a friend. We will miss the team so much, as will our daughter. They have made her early education everything we could have hoped for. Highly recommend!

Both my sons have loved being at St Georges. From the baby room to the holiday club, it has been a huge piece of mind for us to know they're in such a safe, nurturing and fun environment while we work. We have loved all our boy's key workers!

Review from G B (Mother of Child) published on 22 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
St George’s staff - from keyworkers to office staff and chefs - are all exceptional. Our two boys, four years old and 18 months, both currently attend, and we are continuously impressed by the excellent care, communication and variety of meals that are offered.
A superb nursery with brilliant indoor and outdoor amenities, St George’s provides age-appropriate activities, games and toys, which are all loved by our boys.

We often recommend St George’s to friends who are looking for nursery childcare and will continue to do so. We are very happy with our choice of childcare and highly recommend St George’s.

Fantastic staff, lovely setting and a very caring and nurturing environment. We loved the outside space and the meals are great. Our daughter has settled well and we couldn’t be happier with her start to nursery life.

Review from Gemma R (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended the setting since he was 11 months old, and now nearly 3, as parents we couldn’t be happier with St George's Childcare. The transitions through the classes have been well thought out and considerate and the varied activities are excellent. The staff are very supportive and sensitive to the individual needs and my Son’s confidence has grown from strength to strength through the care of the staff. He’s always grown to have a lovely rapport with his caregivers which is very reassuring as parents. It’s an exceptionally friendly environment and we look forward to starting our journey again at St George’s with our second child next year!
