My son has been attending Pennypot on a full time basis from August 2025. We moved to the area just under a year ago and eagerly awaited a spot to become available for him. With this being his 3rd nursery, we were keen to place him somewhere he would remain until he begins school. It has been such a pleasant experience. My son settled so well and built strong bonds right off the bat. I love the easy going environment and the genuine care and love you can feel as you walk through the doors. The staff are all wonderful and we were at ease right away. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
She had settling in sessions in March and then went 3 days a week in April and then up to 4 days from June onwards.
The team are so warm and friendly and the staff in the caterpillars (baby room) have been incredible with my daughter.
She had sever eczema at one stage and the team went above and beyond to make sure she had the right cream at the right time. Since then she has now progressed on to ladybirds and is once again loving the room and the team. They really do go out their way to reassure you and make your child a number one priority.
The updates and learning journals are great to understand how well your child is progressing.
Great team, would highly recommend
Pennypot has been such an incredible place for our son to start his educational journey in life. The staff are caring, attentive, engaged and kind to not only the children but the parents too. While waiting if we had a place was slightly anxiety inducing, the process from having the place offered and now has been second to none. We feel very lucky that our son has a place here!
Our daughter has flourished at Pennypot Day Nursery. She cannot wait to go to nursery each morning and she loves it so much that we have trouble taking her back home! From a developmental point of view, she has progressed immensely and has built great relationships with her key workers. We get lots of information, timely updates and great communication on her daycare routine from the Nursery. All the staff are friendly, professional and polite and take great care of our daughter. We're so happy our daughter is growing up at this nursery and we look forward to seeing her future progress.
My daughter has just graduated from Pennypot after being there for 4.5 years and from the age of 5 months. I cannot rate it highly enough. All the staff were amazing with her, got to know her so well, and I felt they genuinely loved her. Despite being in the pre-school room for almost 2 years, she didn't get bored until the last few weeks and she learnt so much. She's left nursery easily able to write her name, knows more about the solar system than I do and can even do simple maths, none of which was taught by me! I would absolutely recommend this nursery, the staff seem happy in their work and the children are definitely happy, confident snd sociable.
We love Pennypot Day Nursery. My daughter started going in 2022 at 1 years old when I went back to work and has just left ready to go to school. The team are attentive and knowledgeable to her development, they care for her excellently and we did not need to worry about her while in their care. She was happy and healthy! We are genuinely sad to leave and would recommend this nursery to anyone needing childcare. 5*
The setting itself is bright, safe, and welcoming, with fantastic outdoor space that my son enjoys exploring. Communication with parents is also excellent - we always feel involved and updated with what my son has been up to.
I couldn't recommend Pennypot Nursery more highly. It gives us complete peace of mind knowing my son is in such a supportive and inspiring environment where he's thriving.
We have adored every moment of our son's time at Pennypot. From the very first day, he has grown into such a confident, kind, and intelligent little boy, and we know we can't take all the credit for that. The nurturing, caring, and fun environment Pennypot created has played such a huge part in his development, and we are incredibly grateful for the positive impact the nursery has had on him.
Our daughter attended Pennypot nursery for nearly 3.5 years. During her time there, she has thrived and grown in confidence. This is very much due to the safe, pleasant and caring environment that the nursery and its staff has provided. Staff at Pennypot are genuinely enthusiastic about their work and are very supportive of both the children and their parents. We are very grateful for our daughter's time at Pennypot and we would whole heartedly recommend this nursery.
I simply cannot say enough good things about this nursery. My two sons have been right through the nursery. One from only 5.5 months old. They have always been amazing. Keeping them safe, simulated and learning. They love the food, the staff the grounds. I will miss them all so much as we now move on to school. They are utterly outstanding, I have not one negative.
We are so thrilled we chose Pennypot. It is the best (in my opinion) nursery in the area!
My Daughter has thrived at Pennypot , she loves going to see all her friends and key workers . All the staff put a lot of hard work , time , dedication and love into what they do for the children . They are always keeping them engaged and engrossed with new activities all the time both educational and creative. It's nice to have found somewhere where my daughter is so happy and settled!
The team is always warm and welcoming, and they create a nurturing environment where children can thrive. The communication with parents is excellent, and I always feel well-informed about my son's progress and daily activities.
It's clear that the staff are not only highly skilled but also passionate about their work, which gives me peace of mind knowing my child is in such capable hands. I can see my son's confidence growing, and he absolutely loves his time there. If you're looking for a reliable, caring, and professional nursery, Pennypot Day Nursery is definitely the place to go!
We are so thrilled our son goes to Pennypot. Absolutely amazing in every way.
The absolute best thing about Pennypot is the staff. From his keyworkers and the rest of the Caterpillar team, to the kitchen staff and the front desk team, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Within a matter of days of joining, everyone we passed at drop off said hello and knew his name. When he was at home poorly, they called to check in to see how he's doing and we just know they genuinely care. And when we starting talking about the transition to the next room, we were close to tears as know how much he loves the staff who look after him - although we have no doubt the Ladybird room will be just as good for him!
The facilities (garden etc.) are also great, he does tonnes of activities and eats so well (better than at home for sure!). Thank you Pennypot!
Cannot thank the team enough.
Our daughter has been in the Caterpillars room for 3 months and loves it. We couldn't be happier with the care she receives and how we can see that she is developing. She has built great relationships with not just her key worker but with all of the team at the nursery. You can see how well cared for and how happy all of the children are. We are looking forward to seeing how our daughter continues to flourish when she moves up to Ladybirds next month. We would very much recommend Pennypot Day Nursery to anyone considering the nursery.
The Pennypot staff in the Caterpillars room and reception have all been very welcoming and supportive during the settle-in sessions. The updates on the app have been very detailed and helped us understand our child's development. Our daughter has thoroughly enjoyed the varied menu on offer. As an anxious mother, I was nervous at the prospect of our daughter starting nursery, however, the Caterpillar staff were patient during the settle-in period and got to know our child. She has since grown in her skillset, social skills and personality. It is great to see her now confidently and enthusiastically walk into Pennypot.
We are currently expecting baby number 2 and have already completed a registration form for 2027 - there is nowhere else we would want her to go to nursery!
We were very nervous sending our little girl to nursery as she had never been in a childcare setting before. The staff at Pennypot were amazing at helping her settle in and gave her the confidence and support she needed. Since being at Pennypot our daughter has learnt so much, she is so happy there and loves taking part in all the fun activities they plan for them.
