Staff are always friendly and helpful and very professional. They have been absolutely amazing with my non-verbal special needs child who has made brilliant progress since being at Guinea Lane. My child is always happy and excited to go to nursery which has been reassuring as a parents and staff go above and beyond to ensure that my child is able to learn at their place.
My son has only been able to attend Guinea Lane Nursery for a brief time due to a move, but I cannot speak highly enough of his time there. The staff are attentive and friendly, as well as caring. The food sounds amazing - I sometimes get a bit envious of everything he has had to eat in a day. The facilities are wonderful, and my son clearly has an amazing time there from start to finish each day - sometimes I think he doesn't want to leave! It's wonderful to see photos of him enjoying himself as well, it makes it much easier to go to work knowing that he is having a great time.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It means the world to us that, even in the short time your son was with us, he felt happy, settled, and excited to come through our doors each day. We're delighted to hear that he enjoyed the food, our activities, and the time spent with our team, he...
Thank you so much Guineas! We will miss you.
My daughter has attended Guinea Lane Nursery since December 2020. As a family, we have really enjoyed every aspect of the nursery. The staff are really caring and the children are entertained throughout the day. Can't recommend it enough! Everything has been so easy.
I can’t praise Guinea Lane Nursery and its staff enough. My son attended for 9 months once the nurseries reopened in 2020, and he always had a great time. He loved the staff and created wonderful bonds with them. They really engage in fun activities and really helped my son grow in confidence. The nursery itself is immaculately clean, organised and they prepare fresh food every day which provides a really varied and delicious range which also helped my son try different things. The daily reports are great and their overall communication and support throughout the pandemic was faultless. Great nursery all around, would highly recommend.
We can tell that he has absolutely thrived at Guinea Lane and he's so excited every morning when he sees one particular lady and the other staff members. We are genuinely sad that he won't be able to attend anymore (we are relocating out of the area).
Thank you so much to all the staff at Guinea Lane, we have been delighted with the leaps and bounds he has made by attending nursery, every time he comes home it seems like he has made another developmental milestone!
We have loved the app which shows photographs as well as keeping us up to date with how his day is going, what new foods he is enjoying etc. (Thank you for accommodating a vegan toddler)!
Both children have gone through the ranks at Guinea Lane Nursery over the course of the past six years and I can honestly say I couldn’t have done it without them. The team there are so friendly and helpful - nothing is too much trouble and they are very responsive to the needs of both parent and child. The nursery itself is set up in such a way as to benefit from the sight and sounds of many children but still keep them in small groups for very close care and observation by the staff there. Wholeheartedly recommended.
All the carers are very well informed regarding each child's development and everyone can usually give me information regarding my son's day.
The best part for my son is, that the group in the toddler room go out on adventures all the time. They have been on trips to the city farm, train station, fire station, Victoria Park and various other parks and play grounds I don't even know about. They even do their own shopping when they are planning to bake a cake for a child's or carer's birthday. And then they bake the cake together.
The time before the toddler room when my son was in the baby room from 9 months old onward was equally amazing. There was so much messy play and crafts going on. I just couldn't do the same at home.
And the food - the chef is great and really creative. The amount of work she puts into the menu and into themed food for Christmas, Halloween or easter is inspiring. Guinea Lane is a great place for your little one!
Such caring staff that go the extra mile. My daughter has had an amazing time here and developed so much.
The staff are brilliant, always happy in the morning and engage with us straight away and give a daily report when collecting the children of exactly how they have been.
The variety of books and toys are great for helping children develop their playing and learning. My children have both developed new skills and the work the nursery staff do is brilliant.
Guinea Lane is a small nursery with a family feeling. The same staff who look after my 2 year old son, were there 3 years ago when my daughter came to this nursery. The quality of care is very high. The atmosphere is a happy one. The children come home happy every day with lots of stories to tell. Having your children cared for and given so many creative and exploring experiences is priceless. The staff here are wonderful and genuinely care and bond with the children.
I am very pleased with the overall standard of care. I feel the staff are friendly to myself and daily feedback is very honest and can be productive. When my daughter gets upset she gets the extra attention she craves with all staff. The resources are good and the garden space provides a wide range of opportunities for imaginative play and bikes. We love their mud kitchen. I was very pleased with how much attention was paid to my daughter's interests - they bought Superhero dressing up because she likes them.
My daughter who is 4 now comes home very happy and has made very good friends in there.
The staff are so friendly and polite, well spoken and caring that you feel it's all a big family, not as other nursery's that it's to maximise earning potential and neglecting the kids.
The food and cleanliness is outstanding and my daughter and I will be very sad to have to leave such an amazing place to start school.
I highly recommend it from all aspects and to be honest they have treated me and my family very warmly, caring and professional way.
A very content family :)
