Review from S G (Mother of Child) published on 30 July 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We have been so happy with our daughter's nursery since she started last year. She settled in so well, which we feel is a real reflection of the lovely and caring staff in her room. The teachers are always so kind, attentive and caring towards her, and it's clear that they genuinely know and understand the children in their care.
There is always something different going on, with lots of fun and engaging activities for the children to enjoy. We love hearing about what she has been doing each day and seeing how much she is learning and developing.

The nursery has such a lovely, welcoming atmosphere and a really nice vibe. We feel very comfortable leaving our daughter there and know that she is happy, well cared for and having lots of fun. We would definitely recommend the nursery to other parents!

Overall Experience

My youngest joined when he was 6 months old, and he settled in straight away! He's so excited to see his teachers each morning and we love seeing the detailed reports every day about what he's been up to. The staff are all so lovely and they know all the children's names, even around the different rooms. They have loads of great toys, do lots of different activities, lots of art work comes home and they have a great outdoor area. The food is a big hit, and they were super accommodating when I was pumping, it worked out really well transitioning.

Overall Experience

We have had a very positive experience having our children at Snowdrop Nursery. Our eldest son has thrived in the setting and is more than prepared to start school. Our youngest son has additional needs and to date the nursery and staff have stepped up to ensure he gets the right support. The senior staff at snowdrop are also excellent and are always available should you need them. I only hope their new owner Happy Days continues to invest in staff and delivers a better long term solution for hot weather and not rely on staff to solve.

Overall Experience

Our second child is just about to leave Snowdrop and we will be so sad to say goodbye to the wonderful staff and memories he has made. Everyone at the nursery goes above and beyond to give the children a warm and loving environment, preparing them fully for school. Both my children made so many friends and have grown hugely in confidence. As parents we have loved the opportunity to see nativity performances and graduation ceremonies. Thank you for the fantastic start you have given our children.

Overall Experience

I am very happy to have found such a lovely nursery. Both my children have gone here and I've felt confident leaving them at nursery as they are in good hands. Staff are kind, warm and caring. They are experienced and every things seems to be going so smoothly. I have loved recently how they've added more activities and themes of the week like role model week - where they had so many special experiences. Thank you to everyone at snowdrop house I appreciate your hard work.

Overall Experience

Our son has been attending Snowdrop House since November 2024. I was very sad to have to go to back to work and anxious to leave my baby in someone else's care but the staff were reassuring and brilliant at updating us via the app throughout the day. He absolutely loves Nursery and speaks very highly of the adults in his room and has made genuine friends. Our youngest son will be starting in September and we feel secure in the fact that he will be well looked after by the staff at Snowdrop House.

Overall Experience

Snowdrop House has provided excellent childcare for both of my children. The teachers are friendly, approachable and supportive understanding the needs of individual children. They offer a wide range of activities both indoors and in their outside space. They are very easy to communicate with via the app and I always receive quick responses to any questions I have. I would highly recommend Snowdrop House as a nursery and am grateful for their care they have shown to my children.

We would like to thank Snow Drop for welcoming our son when he was just 1 year and 5 months old.

Since joining in March, he has made fantastic progress and continues to develop new skills every day. We are delighted with the care, support, and encouragement he receives from all the staff.

The team is friendly, professional, and genuinely cares about the children. We feel confident knowing our son is in a safe and nurturing environment, and we are very happy with the positive impact the nursery has had on his development.

Thank you to everyone at the nursery for your hard work and dedication.

My child has attended snowdrop nursery since she was 9 months old. Every member of the team has been outstanding in their care of my daughter. She has thrived here, made friends and always goes in with a smile on her face excited to see both her friends and the staff members.
My daughter is currently potty training and the team have been brilliant at supporting this process.

I would recommend this nursery without hesitation.

My son has settled so quickly into the nursery. They keep you well informed of any issues, communicate effectively and quickly, are kind and compassionate as well as understanding.

My son loves the soft play and garden and always comes out with a big smile on his face.

He eats well and seems happy and well looked after.

As a first time Mum I was nervous putting my daughter into a nursery, but I have been so pleased with Snowdrop and the genuine care that my daughter's key worker shows towards her. My daughters confidence has rocketed in the last 6 months of attending Snowdrop and I can see how happy she is on drop offs and collection, which is all I want as a Mum heading to work!

Review from A H (Mother of Child) published on 5 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been at Snowdrop House since September 2025. As first time parents we were obviously nervous about him starting nursery and if we chose the right one, how would we know?! We have been so pleased with how he has settled in and been welcomed by his teachers and key person. He's happy to go and frequently points to go back in at pick up time, which is a great review itself.
The babies get to do lots of activities which would be hard to recreate alone at home and he's produced loads of paintings which I love.

We'd 100% recommend Snowdrop House.

My son has been attending this nursery since October 2024, as a first time mum I was really nervous about enrolling him. But all the staff are so lovely and welcoming and you can see they truly care for all the children. My son has come on leaps and bounds since attending and has built such lovely bonds with his key workers and the other children. They pour into the children's development and sensory needs and make each day so much fun for them! I can't thank them all enough x

We're really happy with Snowdrop House. The team are incredibly caring, attentive and genuinely supportive towards the children. It's clear they take the time to understand each child's individual needs and help them feel safe, confident and valued. Communication with parents is great, and we always feel reassured knowing our child is in such a warm and nurturing environment. We've seen such positive development since starting, and we're very grateful for the care and dedication of the staff.

Overall Experience

We cannot recommend Snowdrop House Nursery enough.

The team are so lovely and welcoming, and they have looked after both of our boys with such genuine care, teaching them so much along the way. From helping our eldest learn practical skills like using knives and forks to supporting him through potty training, they've been incredible.

The children are socialised so well, and it's clear how much the staff nurture kindness and confidence. I can see how caring our son is with his friends, which is a real testament to the wonderful team keeping such a watchful, supportive eye on him.

Snowdrop House has given both of our boys a safe, happy, and enriching start - we're so grateful for everything they do.

Our child has attended Snowdrop House since September 2024 for 4 days a week and he absolutely loves it. The staff are wonderful and amazing and have built such a strong bond with our child. Their communication is great and they plan lots of amazing activities for the children. Our child has learnt so much being at Snowdrop House and speaks very fondly of the staff. We're very happy with Snowdrop House and feel confident sending our child there.
