Review from Jori L (Mother of Child) published on 16 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery for two months now, and we couldn't be happier with our experience. He settled in so quickly and comes home every day full of joy. The teachers are truly wonderful-caring, patient, and dedicated. A special thank-you to Erjona, who looks after him throughout the day. We feel incredibly grateful knowing he is in such good hands. We highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a loving and supportive environment for their child.

Review from Hannah J (Mother of Child) published on 16 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A truly wonderful nursery.
My son started in January this year in the baby room, and from day one the staff made me feel completely at ease - especially important after a previous bad experience elsewhere. Every member of the team seems to genuinely know my child: his interests, his quirks, and what sparks his curiosity.

He leaves nursery smiling, and at home he talks about the staff by name, which says everything. He's become such a happy, confident little boy, and that's down to the care, attention, and hard work they put in every single day.

I honestly can't express how happy I am with this nursery. A real gem, right near the centre of town.

Review from Agata S (Mother of Child) published on 9 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Great nursery with truly wonderful staff! My daughter always lights up when she sees her key worker, Erin. Even though she hasn't been at the nursery for long, she bonded with Erin immediately and really enjoyed her time there.
The facilities are lovely, and I especially appreciate that children spend so much time outdoors in the beautiful garden next to the canal.

We have been with the nursery for about a month and a half. The only reason we are moving is that a nursery closer to our home, which previously had no spaces, is now able to take our daughter. Otherwise, we would have happily kept her in the safe and caring hands of this nursery.

Review from Leona R (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both my daughters attend Quackers and I have nothing but positive feedback!
We're so happy with Quackers; the staff, the care, the communication! Our girls always come home happy and although they are both in separate rooms based on age group (babies and pre-school), we love that they get to see and play with each other throughout the day. We also love that our youngest has a handover book with a full write up off her day - sleep, food, nappies etc.
The communication through learning journals is fab, and we love the updates, pictures and reports on the girls development. I particularly love getting updates when I'm at work and can see that the girls are happy and enjoying themselves!
The new look of the nursery is great and we're really impressed with the care and attention that's gone into making it a wonderful space for children to blossom.

Last but not least we're extremely happy with how the 30 funded hours are allocated in term time - a nice surprise for September!

Review from D M (Mother of Child) published on 29 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son started in February 2025, he loves nursery and has grown in confidence since starting Quackers. He comes home talking about the staff members and activities, and says their names and his friends names in excitement when he knows we are going to nursery. He runs in happly and sometimes it is hard to get him to leave when he is having lots of fun.

Overall Experience
Wonderful Nursery with exceptional staff.
We've had such a fantastic experience with this nursery. My daughter started here when she was just 8 months old and I couldn't have asked for a better environment for her first steps into childcare. The staff are so warm, caring and attentive, they truly treat each child like their own.
Even now, she loves coming back during her school holiday breaks to spend time with the staff and revisit all the lovely memories. It speaks volumes about the nurturing and fun atmosphere they've created. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe, welcoming and joyful place for their child to grow and thrive.

Thank you for everything you've done for my daughter.

Review from S K (Mother of Child) published on 14 November 2024 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The preschool staff team were amazing in helping my son settle in. He was extremely anxious when he first started. He would have a nappy on the way to nursery and also scream and cry. He is now happy, and confident and his face lights up when we speak about the activities that he has taken part in. He enjoys sharing pictures from the parents' app. Also with the ongoing support and communication - we managed to work together to toilet train my son. Thank you once again for everything you do!

Overall Experience

My little one loves coming to Quackers Day Nursery. She settled in quickly and was always excited to go. She always comes home with little pieces of artwork from the day and the staff are always approachable, caring and eager to fill me in on what she's been doing.
