Growing Up Green Nursery

We've been so happy with Growing Up Green Nursery, they take care of our daughter so well and clearly care very much for her. All of the Aunty's and Uncles know her name and I really like that it's not all just ladies working there. Our daughter has thrived over the past 2 years and it's a huge credit to the lovely staff. She's made lots of friends and talks about her aunty's all the time. Someone always has the time to talk to me at pick up and I've built a really good relationship with them. It's the people that make a place a happy place and this is certainly true at Growing Up Green Nursery.

I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Both my girls loved their time at Growing Up Green and from the baby room through to pre-school they do an excellent job.

Our daughter has been at Growing Up Greem Preston Road for 1 years. From the moment we visited to look around we knew it was the right place for us, its a real home from home. Staff are superb, professional and very caring. Our daughter looks forward to going to nursery and has formed real bonds with her "aunties" and "uncles" and her friends.

The staff at Growing Up Green are incredible. Kind, attentive and totally devoted to doing the best for the children and kids. We have had an incredible experience at Growing Up Green and would recommend it to anybody looking to get the best start for their kids.

The activities provided for him and how they are presented encouraged him to develop his skills as he explores the various "toys" and games while mixing in with the other children. He really likes the library.

Could not recommend this nursery enough, our eldest has been there 3yrs and now our youngest, and we have moved out of the area but still travel to drop them there. There is always such a good atmosphere when you go in and although there is not loads of outdoor space they make really good use of it and use it all the time. Could not fault them.

Very professional nursery with good blend of fun play with structured learning and progression to create well rounded little kids - I feel confident that they are doing the best for my son. Most importantly he loves going and has made many friends along the way.

Our two children have attended Growing up Green over the past 6 years and I could not fault our experience. Both children have loved their time at the nursery with the aunties and uncles of Growing Up Green, developing their educational and social skills ahead of starting school. They have benefitted from a huge variety of activities and experiences, and grown palettes that now enjoy a wide variety of different healthy foods. We have recommended this nursery to many friends and also to family - with our children’s cousin now also attending.

My son attended this nursery and now my daughter loves it just as much. The staff are amazing without exception. They adore the children they look after and have boundless patience and energy. Everyone is friendly and polite. I cannot recommend Growing Up Green highly enough. Thank you!

She is nurtured and cared for while I work, I feel I couldn’t have found a better nursery. All the staff are friendly and happy, nothing is too much trouble.

Truly excellent nursery. We have two kids at Growing Up Green Nursery and both are extremely happy there. Excellent care from the brilliant staff that genuinely care, are interested and enjoy looking after young children. Creative, nurturing activities and games throughout the rooms with a good balance between fun and learning.

I can’t recommend Growing Up Green, Preston Road highly enough, my son is ever so happy there. When we were choosing a nursery a year and a half ago, we actually looked at Growing Up Green as an afterthought - having already chosen a different nursery locally, and we were so glad we did as we came away as a family very sure that this was by far the best nursery we’d seen (out of 4 in the area). The staff are all lovely, and I feel my son is very well cared for.

The reports that are done are clear and informative and very relatable to my son.

My son attended Growing Up Green on Preston Road from the age of 9 months and has just left to start school. We have been very happy with the quality of service provided. It is a small nursery with a nurturing environment and our son has always enjoyed spending time there. Staff come across as very professional and the nursery is well managed. My son was diagnosed with autism when he was 3. The nursery made an application for funding towards a 1-1 worker and dealt with this in a professional manner before we were even aware he was eligible for extra support. They went the extra mile to ensure that the person they employed was the best possible person to work with my son which has made a huge difference to his development.

A musician comes every Friday to play his guitar and my son doesn't stop talking about him all weekend. He loves the garden, which is really big and has lots of different activities for the children. The food is great and the staff have always been supportive and very friendly.

Both of my daughters have attended Growing Up Green Nursery from babies and they love it here! The staff are warm and approachable and the curriculum is varied and engaging. We continue to see how both children are flourishing, based on their experiences and interactions at nursery. A particular reason I would recommend this nursery, is that they have four rooms from babies through to preschool, so play and learning is focused really well to these age groups. Highly recommended!!

I cannot recommend Growing Up Green highly enough. We were originally recommended by a friend who's son attended, and so both my boys have attended over the last 3 years. The staff are all so friendly and caring and both boys loved going every day and thrived here. My youngest still attends and he has developed strong relationships with staff and other children. The food is great, and the nursery and garden are a lovely environment. Any communications I've had with the management staff have always been dealt with professionally and swiftly. 10 out of 10.

He has flourished and loved going for his 2 days a week and formed close caring relationships with the wonderful staff. He has been stimulated and nurtured and had lots of fun. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter has been at GUG for nearly four years and will soon be leaving to start school in September. I cannot praise the nursery highly enough. The standard of care provided throughout her time there has been exceptional and she has been extremely happy and settled since she started as a baby. As other reviewers have mentioned, it is the staff that make it such a wonderful place - they are caring and kind and they really know the children individually and treat them with respect and affection. The food they are given is wonderful and home-made with an amazing lunch and snacks included in the daily rate. As a family, we have been so happy with GUG and would recommend them to any parent looking for the best nursery for their children.
