Review from Ivy (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son started to attend Rainbow Nursery from July. He is behind in his learning and speech development but we have seen a tremendous improvement in him in the past few months. This is all down to the great support, patience and knowledge of special needs children from the staff and carers at Rainbow.
We are also very pleased with the facilities especially the vast outdoor area for play and education.

My son loves going to nursery every day, playing and learning under excellent care.

Overall Experience

I’ve had three children attend Rainbow and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. All of my children have loved their time there and made such progress in their learning, confidence and social skills. The facilities and outdoor space is excellent, and the children get to do a really wide range of activities. The biggest asset though is the staff - they are always so welcoming, kind and genuinely care about the children they look after. A really lovely nursery.

Overall Experience
Rainbow stood out as a choice for us with its fantastic grounds and facilities for the children but also the clear support and care the children receive.
Our child is extremely happy being at Rainbow, learning new things every day, bringing them out of their shell and making friends.
As much as they focus on development, they also allow them to be children and enjoy their days!

Thank you, Rainbow for making parenting a lot easier for us, knowing our child is cared for.

Review from Priyanka (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We started when my little one was ten months old. As she had travelled quite a lot prior to her start date she had a very difficult time settling in. All the staff were very positive and although it took more than the usual days to settle in, her carers have been extremely patient and have given much more attention. I was very worried initially because of my little one crying and screaming mostly but I was given confidence and encouraged to continue further. Two months down the line, she is very comfortable and playful and now enjoys her days. They have different kinds of activities and the place is clean. They also give a detailed run through at the end of the day. Very happy I chose Rainbow Nursery and will definitely recommend.

Review from Danielle M (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son is attending Rainbow and has been since he was one. My daughter who is only three months is already signed up to start when she turns one. The staff are wonderful, very caring competent and obviously adored by my son. He has been incredibly well taken care of and the nursery have even accepted additional training for some staff to give my son special medical treatment if he has a seizure. They really do go above and beyond to take the best care of your children.
He loves it at Rainbow and is always entertained, gets lots of outdoor time, which he loves, and has learnt so much from the organised activities.

I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Review from Amy B (Mother of Child) published on 22 September 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Absolutely wonderful nursery. The staff are so friendly and attentive to the children. Our son enjoyed his time here so much and he always came home happy. The staff always knew what he had been up to for the day, what he had eaten, and how he had been and they would always take the time to feed that back. Rainbow has played a crucial role in our son's development at such an important time in his life and we would not hesitate to trust them with that again. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a nursery.

Review from Sarah H (Mother of Child) published on 9 August 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our eldest son will be leaving Rainbow Nursery this summer after nearly four wonderful years. The nursery has been fantastic, lovely and loving carers, great opportunities, firm friends made. The nursery has unusually large and varied grounds which mean the children get to spend a lot of time outside when the weather is good - and even when it's not so good they're not afraid to bundle them into raincoats and find some puddles to splash in. There seems to be a good balance of education, activity and fun. Carers are loving and good-humoured but don't shy away from discipline and try to instil independence in the children. Fortunately, our younger son is still only two, so we have another couple of years of Rainbow even after our eldest starts school.

My son has loved his time at Rainbow and he was there for 3 years. I was so happy with the way Rainbow was run, the staff are always so lovely and approachable and the outside space the kids have is amazing. Well run and a true family feel.

My little one has been attending Rainbow Day Nursery full time for almost a year now and I could not have been happier with the care she receives there. Facilities, particularly outdoors, are exceptional and the lovely carers provide a safe environment for her to play and learn.

Review from Hugh G (Father of Child) published on 11 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 11-month-old daughter has been at Rainbow Nursery for a few weeks now and absolutely loves it. The staff are so welcoming and the variety of activities is excellent. It makes such a difference leaving a child somewhere you know that they are happy and well looked after. The variety extends to the menu and the range of meals that my daughter has enjoyed is fantastic. The facilities are excellent and the ratio of staff to children is great. We have not had a negative experience since we started here and we are looking forward to seeing our daughter go up through the years. We also like that the facility feels very secure and people take the access protocols seriously. It is very reassuring to know that our daughter is safe and secure while she is developing, learning and being entertained.

Review from Jo C (Mother of Child) published on 11 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our daughter has been at Rainbow since she was 6 months old and had formed attachments to her key workers and enjoys attending nursery.
The routine is great and the outside space is not found at many nurseries.
Her development is great and Rainbow staff deserve some credit for their part in this.
Communication with parents is excellent.

Highly recommend.

My son has been at Rainbow for 18 months now and enjoys it very much. After a difficult start for him (lots of separation anxiety), the staff at Rainbow were fantastic, very supportive and helped him and I through it. Couldn't praise them enough.

Review from Chante W (Mother of Child) published on 11 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son is in Cygnets 1. My son absolutely loves Cygnets and I feel it's the best class he has ever been in and the staff there are all so caring and friendly. He has progressed huge amounts from his speech to his confidence to his ability to communicate and engage with other children without being hesitant. His main key worker is fabulous and always has a bright, bubbly and enormous personality which my son thrives off and although he may play me in the mornings, he absolutely loves going and seeing her. Two other ladies are also fabulous and I haven't got 1 bad word to say about any of them. Massive appreciation to the girls in Cygnets, it's not an easy job to do but to see your child develop and be so content with them makes you happy and comfortable leaving them. Thank you girls.

Overall Experience

Rainbow nursery is always friendly and helpful when the office is contacted.

The class staff are amazing. They love the children and the children love them. They know the children well and encourage them to try and do new things. I know my child feels safe and comfortable and trusts their key worker and all class staff. He has been challenged to learn and try new things physically.

An amazing team who do their best for the children in their care.

We love this place!
Both of my children have been to this nursery over the last 7 years.
The key workers are so caring and enthusiastic and always ready with a cuddle if needed.
The space the children have is so vast and varied (allotments, play areas, sandpit, maze and farm!)

We honestly couldn’t ask for a better place for our children to be!
