My son has been at Rainbow for 2 years now and it’s a fabulous place. The teachers are amazing and the variation in play and teaching is great. The facilities are fantastic with lots of outside space and play facilities. Highly recommend.

Overall Experience
Both of my children have attended Rainbow Nursery and we have been really happy with the care they’ve received.
The staff at Rainbow are fantastic and they ensure that the children are happy and have a range of experiences.
The grounds are a real plus - there is so much to do outside and the staff really make the most of this.

My daughter is totally ready to start school in September, thanks to the excellent learning she’s done at Rainbow.

Overall Experience

Staff is amazing. Caring and extremely well trained and helpful. My daughter loves all her teachers. They helped her so much to settle in. She is full time and she has grown up so much the past months and I believe it is also due to the nursery staff. Highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Rainbow for 2 and a half years and we are delighted with the quality of care she receives and the development she has shown in her time there. She loves going to nursery and I cannot rate the staff highly enough, they are absolutely fantastic. The nursery itself is set in beautiful grounds giving the children so much space to go outside every day and explore. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rainbow.

Review from Kate R (Mother of Child) published on 10 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been at Rainbow Nursery for 6 months and adores it. The nursery facilities are fantastic and the team leader and the team in Tulips take great care of him. The activities keep him stimulated, he loves messy play, visiting the farm and exploring the grounds.

The nursery staff have the balance right between keeping the children safe but also allowing them to be independent and push the boundaries. There appears to be a low staff turnover so there is continuity of care. I am so glad that we decided to send him to Rainbow.

Review from Vicki G (Mother of Child) published on 10 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter started here in April when she was 8 months old and she loves it! The room is large and spacious, the grounds substantial and the carers amazing. As I am sure many parents are, I was worried she would not settle in but she did so incredibly quickly thanks to the team. They've really helped with her routine.

She loves the food she is given too. The menu is varied and includes plenty of fruit.

The team have really encouraged her development. This can be seen with her comprehension as well as her motor skills.

Review from Catia M (Mother of Child) published on 7 June 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Rainbow Nursery is an outstanding nursery. My little girl was not thriving in her previous setting and was growing increasingly unhappy. As soon as we moved her to Rainbow, we saw a different child. She settled in very quickly and all the staff went out of their way to provide her with activities that she was most interested in while also stimulating her to broaden her interests.

I am truly confident that she is loved, well cared for and expertly guided. In my 14 years as a parent and 24 as an auntie, I have never seen such a loving and stimulating environment as what you will find at Rainbow. The outdoor facilities are outstanding and the children have the chance to really run around and experience different colours, smells and textures in a safe environment. Indoors, it is a pleasure to see children cleaning up after themselves and helping each other at such a young age. Children are not kept in a room all day. They go outside most days and go to the kitchen for cooking activities.

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery. We joined from recommendation and have enjoyed every moment of it. We are sad that only one year is left! Cygnets are the most amazing team. The lady in Birds is the most loving and is fantastic at keeping the children happy. Management is so well organised and make an effort to remember you, giving the nursery a personal touch!

Review from Olivia (Mother of Child) published on 17 May 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our two daughters both spent around two years in Rainbow Nursery. They have been in different classrooms and most of the carers are very friendly and caring. The management team is very helpful and works efficiently. What my children love the most is its outside space, including big play areas and farm with lots of animals. Inevitably they often got messy but they had great fun.

Through their stay they have made good relationships with the key carers and learned sharing with friends, taking turns, caring for others, being more independent and getting ready for big school. A huge thank you to all at Rainbow Nursery for your great help! We will miss you so much!

Overall Experience

Extremely happy with this nursery. My twin boys developed wonderfully here. The activities and events organised are very impressive and stimulating for the children. The nursery was so supportive of my very hectic work schedule, always accommodating for extra sessions at unexpected and short notice. Staff are all very professional, approachable and caring.

Overall Experience
The fantastic nursery that my little boy absolutely loves so much.
There is not a day that goes by that he asks “can I go to school?“

Rainbow focuses on every aspect of my child’s needs and developments and I couldn’t recommend Rainbow more.

We love Rainbow. It is a well-run nursery with lovely staff who really care for our daughter when she is there. We particularly like the emphasis on spending time outdoors in the huge grounds, going on walks and interacting with all of the animals.

I couldn’t recommend Rainbow enough! My daughter is there all day and still never wants to come home as she’s having so much fun. I think that says it all.

Review from Sharon K (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter, now 15 months, has been attending since she was 10 months. I can't believe how quickly she has settled in here, she has so much fun and is already making little friends. She is so well cared for and it's a joy to see how she is developing in so many areas, all with the support of her carers and especially the attention from her key carers, all of whom she has formed such lovely bonds with.
The nursery itself is well managed and communication is excellent. Parents are informed weekly, of exactly what their children will be learning. There is a varied food menu and it is made freshly each day. Not to forget the beautiful grounds, which the children are often taken to explore.

Overall, we are so pleased with the progress our little one is making and the support we receive as parents. It's been a great decision for us all.

Review from Suvarna M (Mother of Child) published on 13 December 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Very happy with Rainbow staff and facilities. Everyone is very friendly, always sharing a smile and that’s what my little one needs! As a first time to nursery environment, I felt bit uneasy, but my little one liked it within a week. As soon as she sees her carer she goes with smile and hug. She enjoys outside most of the day and this is the perfect place for it. She loves animals and going to the farm is one of her favourite activities. They always aim to encourage and bring out the best in her. We are happy that we chose this nursery! Thank you!

Rainbow Day Nursery & Pre-School have provided both my son and daughter with a fun learning environment, all staff know my children well and both children are happy going into nursery each morning and have lots to tell me upon collection. Forming good bonds with key workers. The children have access to indoor and outdoor activities every day and are encouraged to eat a well balanced and healthy breakfast snack and lunch. Very happy parents and children thank you.
