Busy Bees Rainham

My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 11 months old and it has been fantastic to see how she has grown and developed with the help, care and attention of the staff at Meredale. Moving from the baby to the toddler room was easy and she absolutely loves her days there with the other children and key workers. The nursery offers variety and excellent learning, preparing her for school in a couple of years. Highly recommended.

My son has been at this nursery since he was eight months old, he's now four. My daughter is just starting at nine months old. I am very happy with the nursery. I'm probably one of those annoying parents but they're always reassuring and nice and polite. The progress my son has made is brilliant and really feel it has got him ready for his school years. Knowing all this has made it easier for my daughter starting. Thank you Meredale.

My little boy loves coming to nursery. It took him a while to separate from his mum in the mornings, but the staff were great and have got him through this. They have a wide range of activities for him to play with. It is a lovely nursery, the rooms are very spacious and the staff have a great knowledge and are very caring.

My sister absolutely loves coming to the nursery. The staff work well to keep the children occupied and enhance their overall experience. They are very approachable if you have any queries and rotate the resources they use well.

All staff are very approachable and happy to discuss any issues you or your child may have or to just discuss your child's time with them. Our son had fussy eating issues and they were more than happy to embrace the techniques we were using at home to ensure consistency for him. We shall be very sad to be leaving in August ready for big school but will be back for the holiday club!

My little boy has been coming to nursery since he was 11 months old. The staff have been great with him, settling him into the rooms and separating from me in the morning. He loves coming to nursery and they have a great range of activities available for him to explore inside and out.

My daughter attended Meredale nursery from three months old until she left to go to school, over this time I was more than happy with the care and support she received, I am planning on sending our second child to the nursery in November this year and would recommend this nursery to anyone.

I am very pleased with the care and attention that Meredale Nursery gave to my goddaughter. This gave her an excellent start to learning and a smooth transition into school.

I would highly recommend this nursery setting for any aged child to attend and my daughter has recently moved up to the toddler room. I cannot fault the staff in both rooms for making this transition as smooth as possible. I have noticed that she is very settled into the toddler room and has made good strong bonds with all the staff, especially her key person.

My son attended here from 8 months old until he left for school at 4 years old. He really enjoyed his time there and still remembers some moments now. He made lots of lovely friendships and relationships with the staff. Staff are approachable if you have any questions and would always help. The nursery is in a lovely area local to a park and local shops which my son visited often on small trips.

It's also lovely to find cards and paintings in her bag for me when I pick her up. I've recommended to all of my friends looking for a nursery for their little ones.

The effort that the staff went to, to teach the children the Christmas play was remarkable and how they managed to get the children to learn the songs at that age was fantastic. The garden and the class have lots of different activities for the children to participate in, if they so wish.

Our son attends the nursery two mornings a week. The staff are always friendly and caring. Should you need to discuss anything about your child they are approachable. The premises are secure and we feel that he is well cared for.

My son has been going to the baby room for a few months now and although he cries every time I leave him he is always very happy when we pick him up. The staff are always happy to speak to me when I phone during the day to check how he is and are all lovely, they make sure the children have a fun filled day and ensure they eat properly and have a nap. I would not hesitate recommending this fun filled, caring, environment to anyone who wanted a safe environment for their baby.

My eldest daughter spent 3 and a half years at Meredale and absolutely loved it! She developed so quickly and had such a strong bond with her key workers that I had no hesitation in sending my younger daughter. She has now been attending for nearly 6 months and has gone from being an extremely clingy child to running in without even a hug goodbye! She is always smiling when she arrives and when I collect her. The staff are fantastic and keep me fully informed of how her day has been and I love the crafty pictures that come home for my kitchen fridge. The outside space is lovely and colourful with lots to do. The onsite chef is an added bonus and knowing she is getting well-balanced meals is great. The office staff are fantastic and are very quick to respond to any queries I have. I would recommend Meredale to anyone looking for a nursery for their child in the area.

I would highly recommend Meredale Day Nursery to everyone! I really can not fault anything, I have a poorly child who needs extra help, and from his key worker to the manager to the cook to the cleaner. I take my hat off to them They all interact with him, take time to get to know him. Adjust to things he wants. Which is very reassuring to know that they are truly looking after your child and that they care, They offer family support in times of need. Very understanding and reliable. And to top it off my son loves it there. He is growing developmentally and doing things I thought would take a long time for him to do. I will be happy to send my future children here. Keep up the good work :)

Meredale Day Nursery is a warm and welcoming environment, with committed and caring staff. My cousin was able to learn and develop in an excellent facility, being cared for by well trained and kind staff.
