Snapdragons Nursery Weston

and the staff in her room enjoy the company of the children, whilst providing a wide range of stimulating and creative activities, play-focused but with an understanding of and interest in developmental goals, without being dogmatic. The food is nutritious and home-cooked, the outdoor play area fantastic for a city centre, and the overall approach of kindness, fun and creative learning with a strong emphasis on safeguarding, allows us peace of mind as parents.

seem to have really got to know him, which is the most important thing.
Always clean and dry when collected, and he is always keen to go back again, which must be a good sign!
Drop off can be busy in the morning with the small car park and often have to wait a bit for his worker to bring him inside. Also, some of the illness exclusion information on their website is inaccurate eg, slapped cheek recommends keeping them off nursery until rash cleared, but the link to the NHS website suggests that it is not contagious once the rash appears, so there can be no sensible reason for this advice. They also insist on seeking medical treatment/advice for simple conjunctivitis, which is not necessary.

activities and focus on development. The outdoor space is a real bonus. They have adapted well to Covid procedures and communicate regularly via email with updates on their processes and what's coming up. If there are any issues, they are quick to answer the phone or schedule a meeting to answer your concerns.

and despite a few tears settling in, he is now walking in without even saying goodbye! There was no need for us to worry! Our son's speech has come on leaps and bounds, and this is through the dedication of the team. Medication is remembered daily and on time without any hesitation. I would recommend Snapdragons Weston to any parent not only for the team but also the facilities that they offer from meals cooked on-site, to the expansive garden and the new curiosity approach that they have adopted.

month of attending twice a week, our son absolutely loves it.

despite lockdown, were totally excited and keen to go every day. Our own experience was totally liberating as we were able to resume our work as key workers.

She now loves the toddler team too and is happy to go in each morning. The measures taken at the nursery to adjust for Covid have been clearly communicated to parents and is working well.

amazing - he regularly has seconds at mealtimes. I could not be happier knowing that he is well looked after and is having a wonderful time when I go to work. The management team are also lovely and really helpful. I honestly couldn't ask for more for my little man.

where she is very settled and happy, we can see the stark contrast. There have been a lot of staff changes in the pre-school room, and there can be over 30 children in the room and staff are clearly under strain. Children often observed left in toilet and cloakroom area unattended. Staff never truly got to know our daughter, for example, asking her name, and more seriously her past medical history was not communicated/known to room staff. At pick up time, staff often did not know where she was, and on one occasion I found her asleep in a corner. Very little encouragement with maths/writing/reading and assessments did not reflect her ability, despite us discussing this with staff.

what's to come. Couldn't thank them enough or recommend them any more for the fantastic care they provide.

The setting fantastic too. I would highly recommend Snapdragons Weston!

get a good variety of food menus which rotate every 4 weeks.
Would definitely recommend this nursery.
