Pennies Day Nursery - Mark Cross

Pennies Day Nursery offers amazing care and the staff there are amazing - very switched on, upbeat and seem to enjoy what they do. The facilities are good, especially the extensive outside area where they encourage the kids to spend slot of time. I’m very happy that my children are here.

Pennies have been wonderful in transitioning our little one into the world of nursery. I was apprehensive about going back to work but they have made it easy and I know our child is in good hands. My husband and I enjoy reading the daily reports and getting pictures through the tapestry app so we can see little one enjoying themselves and making friends. Their approach is both caring and educational which we have found reassuring. The team are approachable and easy to chat to. We look forward to watching our child grow and develop at Pennies Day Nursery.

I could not fault Pennies Day Nursery and their wonderful staff who look after my daughter at after school club and during the half terms so that I can work. She is very shy, quite nervous and they took her under their wing and made her feel so welcome. I am so impressed with all of the staff and how kind and thoughtful they all are. My daughter loves it and is always coming home with all the little arts and crafts that she has made. I could not find one fault. I am so lucky to have found Pennies.

Our daughter is simply a shining light, and I firmly believe the team at Pennies Day Nursery play a huge role in that. Thank you so much, and keep up the fantastic work, ladies! I can recommend Pennies Day Nursery as a loving place for your child or children to go to.

Pennies Day Nursery Mark Cross is a wonderful nursery. They were kind and supportive when we moved our son from nursery to here after moving house (with him and us). He learns so much and is so happy and proud when he tells you what he’s done or made. He goes in happy and looks forward to playing with his friends and the staff.

I’d really recommend Pennies to any parent looking for a friendly setting for their child.

Our daughter seems really happy and settled at Pennies Day Nursery. The staff are all very friendly, give us regular updates on her development and welcome her every morning with a big smile. Thanks to the whole team!

We have been using Pennies Day Nursery for the last 5 years. We knew as soon as we looked around with our first child, it was perfect so when it came to putting our second child into the nursery, we didn't need the stress of looking around again. All the staff are so lovely and create such strong bonds with the children, it is a home away from home.

My son has been attending Pennies for almost 3 years now and absolutely loves it. The staff are so warm and welcoming on drop-off and pick-up! Pennies offer a variety of activities for the children and have a wonderful outdoor area.

Pennies were fantastic at helping my daughter settle in. She’s been there for a year now and has made some lovely friendships already and a strong bond with the staff. They’re a lovely team and always welcome her with a big smile!

I was so worried about putting my daughter into nursery as I didn’t know how she would cope and if she would settle as she hadn’t left my side for 2 years! From day one, she has absolutely loved going to Pennies and loves all of the staff, she never wants to leave when I come to collect her! She settled in straight away and is happy to go every time. All of the staff are amazing, they are all so friendly and helpful and will go the extra mile for the children. I am so happy that I chose this nursery for my daughter and would definitely recommend.

They are always on hand to give advice if needed and nothing is too much to ask either.

Our son has started nursery when he was 1 year old and has been at Pennies well over a year now. Everyone whom I’ve met so far is really friendly and genuinely interested in our son’s wellbeing, development and even our family life outside the nursery. I really like that they have their own chef who cooks fresh food on-site and their massive garden is a big plus, too! I really trust that he’s in good hands at Pennies. Most days he runs through the door, excited to start playing with his friends. So I’m very grateful that the team provides such a fun and welcoming environment for him. Thank you all!

I have met the manager of the Pennies Day Nursery for the first time and she was very friendly and kind to my daughter. My daughter also fell asleep in her hands which made me very happy. We have met our daughter's key worker and she is absolutely lovely, caring and loves kids. This made me feel safe to leave my baby at Pennies Day Nursery.

We are so, so happy with Pennies at Mark Cross. Our first daughter went there and is now at school, and we have the joy of sending our youngest to Pennies too. We looked at some other nurseries, but I knew straight away this one would be best for our daughter. The staff are so friendly and caring, and we love the homely feel. Our youngest even asked if she could go to preschool on a weekend as she has so much fun there! They have also been good with covid restrictions and ensure the children have good hand hygiene. Big thanks to all the wonderful staff!

I love all the staff at Pennies. My daughter started when she was just a year old and I had to return to work full time. The staff were utterly amazing with her and she developed strong attachments during her time in the baby room. Then when lockdown happened, Pennies were incredibly flexible about payment. We continued to pay a little, but we weren't forced to, like with some other nurseries, and we received the contributions back in credit. It shouldn't be underestimated how helpful and reassuring that was, especially since our circumstances changed as a result of Covid-19. My daughter struggled to return to nursery but the staff have persevered and been really understanding, and she's now settled into playgroup and loves it! The minute she shows any sign of discomfort, they are straight on the phone to us and it's clear the team really cares when I go to fetch her and she's enjoying her cuddles!

Pennies are just brilliant. The team are great, my daughter absolutely adores all of the team. I genuinely couldn't do without them! She is learning so much, developing brilliantly and I have to thank the team for that. Additionally, they potty trained her for me which was a godsend. I can't recommend them enough.

Friendly attentive staff, happy daughter. We know she's in safe hands, and they seem to be doing all that is required during the pandemic to keep everything clean and safe in what must be very challenging times.

Absolutely love this nursery, my son could not be happier. He loves the staff, surroundings and especially the food. I find all of the staff really helpful and kind which really helps with drops offs. During this covid situation, the nursery has adapted really well and absolutely every decision has had the children in mind.

Both our children love going to Pennies, our eldest has been going for 3 years and is still excited to go! All the staff have been wonderful in every room. I particularly like that the baby room is for babies and once they start walking confidently they move on to the toddler room. It was especially important to me as both my children started around 10 months and still felt so small to be starting nursery! They have also been great about dietary requirements and have made it one less thing for me to worry about. Couldn’t recommend Pennies highly enough!

Wonderful nursery which both of my girls attended as after-school care. The staff are really friendly and ever so kind, and my girls thoroughly enjoyed going there after school. Would highly recommend!
