Butterfly Day Nursery Reviews (36)
Over all time Butterfly Day Nursery has 36 reviews.
All of the teachers really care about our boy and my boy also loves them. He looks forward to the Nursery, especially during the long vacation, he asked me a lot, ”Can I go to the Nursery?”
My boy is growing up here happily, he learned a lot of things, speaking, potty trained, drawing, and writing. They made creative activities to engage the kids and make every day a fun day!
Seeing how much he's grown and his excitement for nursery has been so rewarding for us. We highly recommend Butterfly Day Nursery.
Butterfly Nursery is wonderful. This is my second child in this nursery and in both cases, I must say that I am very satisfied. Everyone is very friendly, helpful and wonderful with the children. My son loves being there. I have feedback every day and I know that my son feels safe and happy there, and at the same time, I can work peacefully without worrying that he will be harmed.
We always strive for you to know that your children are happy and safe when you are not with them.
My daughters have been going to Butterfly Day Nursery for the past three years. It is a home away from home, they love going in every morning. The staff in all rooms are great, loving and caring. They spend a lot of effort developing the child with individual attention. They give a good variety of food and snacks. Staff are very attentive and accommodating of parent requests and spend time discussing the child's day at pickup time. Managers are always communicative with any questions. We highly recommend this nursery for hassle-free, worry free, loving and professional care.
We are always very proud of our strong and caring staff team.
Many thanks.
She eats a variety of nutritious meals every day, and she comes home asking to go back every day.
Every week, I receive photos of my child's activities, and I could not be more happy.
Thank you for your kind words and glowing review. We strive to ensure all children and families are welcomed and their individuality supported. Your daughter has brought many smiles to the room and continues to grow in confidence and build friendships. All our staff are passionate about enriching...
My son is in the preschool room and loves going to Butterfly Day Nursery every morning. It has a beautiful environment with a homely feeling. He settled very easily, eats well there, has fun, and loves the staff. It is clean and very well kept. The staff are very diligent and have catered for his allergies perfectly from day 1. He comes home happy and content every day. I would highly recommend this lovely, well-managed nursery.
Thank you for your kind words, they will be passed on to the relevant staff. We work very hard to ensure we are warm and welcoming to all new children and their families and this ethos runs through all the rooms in the nursery. We strive to have strong parent partnerships to ensure children settle quickly and enjoy their time at nursery. We always welcome feedback.
I am very happy with the experience of bringing our daughter there for 3 years now. I am glad we took the decision of bringing her to Butterfly Day Nursery. The Staff is lovely and provides an extraordinarily caring and stimulating environment for the children.
Thank you for your review, it is always lovely to hear a parent's view and to pass on positive comments to the staff that work so hard. We have enjoyed having your daughter at Butterfly Day Nursery she has always been so keen to learn and always has a smile on her face.
We have had a wonderful experience with Butterfly Day Nursery. Our child has attended in the baby room from the age of 5 months to 19 months old and has formed strong bonds with the staff. You can really see the genuine affection the staff have for the children in their care, which is lovely and so reassuring as a parent. The staff are also excellent at communication, giving updates each day and posting plenty of pictures and information to the app, so we can follow along with what our child has been doing each day. We have also really appreciated everything the nursery has done during Covid to maintain a safe environment, which can't have been easy. We're now moving out of the area, so will be sad to leave, but Butterfly has been such a lovely first nursery experience for our child. We can only hope the next one, will be as good!
Thank you for your kind words, it is always a pleasure to see the children grow and develop into individuals. Seeing the children smile and achieve their goals makes all the hard work the staff put into teaching the children, all the more worthwhile. We wish you and your family a smooth move to your new home and hope you have many days of happiness ahead.
Our child absolutely loved his time at Butterfly Day Nursery. The staff are caring and friendly and take the time to really get to know the children. The space is lovely and homely and the range of activities the children can do is fantastic. Thanks, everyone.
Thank you for your glowing review. It is always so very nice to hear from parents as their children move onto school. We are hoping that your son has settled well into school and that he is continuing to develop into the funny, lovable and curious individual that he is.
A very homelike atmosphere for the children. My child enjoys her time there gets to make good relationships with all other children and staff alike. The staff understand that all children are different and give specialised care for each child as they require.
Thank you for your kind words, it is always a pleasure to see the children grow and develop into individuals as they make their way through the Nursery. Seeing the children smile and achieve their goals make's all the hard work the staff put into teaching the children all the more worthwhile.
We chose this nursery due to it being smaller and with a more personal feel to it. This has benefited our child greatly since we were new to the area. We have now been with them two years and the staff were great at accommodating our use of cloth nappies, guiding us through the awkward potty training stage, and now with supporting us in primary school selections. The new manager who started this year has been sending routine updates via email about the activities going on at the nursery, and the photos and videos provided on the Tapestry website are always lovely to see. The only negative is that the car park being very small makes it awkward at busy collection times to navigate the space, but this just incentivises us to collect our kid using the bike instead of the car which is better for many reasons anyway. We will be sad to leave this nursery when our child goes to primary school later this year.
Both of our children have had a wonderful time at Butterfly Day Nursery. The staff are friendly and knowledgable, and are always happy and welcoming at the gate. The nursery have done an excellent job of managing the extra demands of Covid-19 in a sensible and comprehensive way. Transitions between the rooms are very well managed, and we had a good experience of potty learning with the help of the staff in the Toddler room. Thank you Butterfly Day Nursery!
Having my children at home over the last few months due to the pandemic has made us appreciate more all the wonderful things they did at Butterfly and all the thought and effort staff go through to plan activities and catch it on camera to share with us on the parent app. A big thank you to all!
Our daughter loved it and will miss it for sure. The nursery provided lots of different learning activities and experiences, and lots of fun! Our daughter established strong relationships with staff.
The staff are very friendly and communication is very good.
Butterfly Day Nursery is a truly outstanding place! The love and care my children received on a daily basis was outstanding! If I could pick the nursery up and move it with us I would. I am going to miss this place very much. The amount of daily feedback and personal care was just amazing. I highly recommend sending your children to Butterfly!
We love Butterfly they are wonderful with our little boy. The staff are so competent and lovely. Lovely nurturing family feel.
Since day one we were very pleased with the staff and the way that they were supporting our son.
Thank you Butterfly Day Nursery Staff :)
We are amazed at her development since starting nursery and with how careful the staff are at relating to us the information we find important each day.
They allow our wee girl to have her own schedule and don’t force her to stick with what the other older kids are doing.
We cannot say enough good things about Butterfly.
Very nice nursery! Teachers are very nice and patient especially with my son as English is not his first language.
A family member recommended this nursery to me but when I was looking for my son it was too full. After a change in funding policy at my son's previous nursery. I began to search for a new nursery and came across Butterfly again. This time they had space. My son took a shine to this nursery straight away. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and he absolutely loves going now. He has developed so much in every aspect after moving here and even though I was so apprehensive about moving him but it was the best decision we made. I will definitely be sending my daughter here too.
I definitely recommend this nursery to people nearby.
Very safe environment, very hygienic and I love the way the staff make you feel comfortable there and not wear outdoor shoes all day long.
I will definitely be bringing my other son to the nursery when he gets a bit older. Very recommended and I thank all staff for being the way they are to all the children there and parents.
There is nothing bad I can say about this nursery.
