My daughter is extremely happy to go to nursery every morning. We feel that she is learning lots and really enjoying herself. The nursery is well managed, and communication is fluid. We are impressed with everything to date.

Overall Experience

Snowdrop House has been a great nursery for both of my sons. All the team are fantastic, and create a fun, caring, environment for the children, and have been so dependable throughout the pandemic.

The facilities at Snowdrop are great, and I love that there are different spaces and rooms, including the library, sensory room and garden.

Overall Experience

We cannot praise Snowdrop House enough! We sent our little girl there when she turned one, full of fear and trepidation, especially as this coincided with the height of the Covid pandemic. We needn’t have worried. She settled in really quickly and has a fantastic time each day (some days she’s not all that keen on heading home afterwards!). The staff are wonderful; they ensure that our daughter is lovingly looked after, well-fed (the way to her heart is definitely through her stomach!), and fully entertained. We love seeing photos and videos of her happy little face on the app - thank you so much for taking such great care of her. She really has a ball each day!

Such a fantastic nursery that my son absolutely loved! Can't fault it. A great environment with lots of imaginative play and learning. Looking forward to my littlest having the same great experience when he starts.

Review from Charlotte C (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter goes in smiling and comes out smiling even bigger, which is the most important thing to me as her mother, knowing she's happy and looked after. The quality of care is outstanding, and the staff are friendly and focused on the best interests of the children at all times. The facilities and equipment are to a very high standard and led by children's ability and interest. No complaints at all, only praise.

Review from Louise H (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Snowdrop House since April 2020, and she absolutely loves it. All the staff are really friendly, encouraging and supportive of not only the children but the parents too. We see our daughter develop so much in short timescales. We have regular updates from the nursery via their app, her written diary and phone calls from the nursery. The nursery has been so accommodating to our changing needs throughout the pandemic. I always know my daughter is safe, well looked after, and most of all, having fun. We wouldn't want our daughter to go anywhere else. The management is great; they are always a pleasure to talk to and extremely efficient. I have already booked our newborn to join his sister next year.

Review from Anni T (Mother of Child) published on 14 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a qualified Nursery Nurse I had high expectations of where to leave my little one, but when she started at Snowdrop House in March 2020, I had no reason to worry!
The staff are all lovely and amazing with the little ones, and great with us as parents, especially when we have any concerns or feedback, all of which is taken on board and acted upon where necessary. The daily books are always filled out, despite knowing how busy the girls must be each day, we always know what they’ve had to eat, when they slept and when nappies were changed.

The Tapestry system is great for seeing regular updates on how the little ones are doing, the activities they’ve enjoyed and the milestones they’re achieving at nursery. It’s also a useful platform for sharing helpful documents for parents and advice on how to help the little ones achieve their next steps.

Overall Experience

We chose Snowdrop House after looking at a number of nurseries in the area. We are really impressed by the staff at the nursery and their care towards our child. The environment is bright and clean. We are given feedback on our child's daily activities and he is always happy to be there. We would certainly recommend this nursery to others and frequently do.

Overall Experience
Our 16 month old son has been at Snowdrop since January and we are very happy with the nursery and the wonderful staff.
He has settled in well, is happy at drop off and pick ups and we see great leaps in his development.
The staff are very friendly, helpful and it's obvious they care for all the children. They keep us in touch about any health or development changes they notice and we feel confident our son has the best care and attention.

We are very happy choosing Snowdrop and recommend to all.

Review from S M (Mother of Child) published on 28 February 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter started here Jan 2020, after nearly 2 years at a different setting which had changed ownership and had fallen in its level of care. Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery has been amazing - my daughter is always happy to go in, even asks to go at the weekend! She has made lots of friends and she often talks about the other children and staff members. I feel she has learnt a lot of social skills at the setting and has come on in her vocabulary. There are lots of tapestry updates and paints/pictures etc sent home which is lovely. I cannot thank Snowdrop House enough so far and I cannot rate highly enough as a premium childcare setting. The staff genuinely care and the facility is managed very efficiently.

Review from Jarek D (Father of Child) published on 24 February 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We moved to Haywards Heath from London and even before the move the Management was already mighty helpful and supportive. For us to say they're fantastic is an understatement. The building has been fully refurbished and adapted for Nursery needs. It really has a wow factor. It's spacious and creates a friendly environment. It even has indoor playground (very helpful in winter months). Also, outdoor space is generous. The Nursery is run by young, keen, experienced and enthusiastic Manager. Nursery has a wide range of interesting activities that help our boy grow and flourish. As parents, we get daily sheets with activities, meals as well as verbal handover. Staff is the biggest strength and every single one deserves recognition. Opening hours 7:30 to 18:00 help hugely as we're both working full time.
Signing up our son with Snowdrop Nursery has been the best move we have done for our child's well-being and development.

Thank you.

Reply from Julie Roberts, at Snowdrop House Montessori Nursery
Thank you for your amazing comments. We spent a long time renovating the building and planning learning areas for the children to enjoy. I will pass your kind comments onto the Snowdrop team.

Kind Regards
