Overall Experience

When my daughter started she was very unsettled to the point I was going to take her out. She is now very settled in nursy and has come on so well and her development has improved. She is always happy to come into nursery.

Overall Experience

We chose this nursery because our daughter who’s now 10 years old was here. She loved being here and learnt a lot. Also, the location for us was convenient and flexible booking system. Despite staff member's changes since then, they are still very good at their job, dedicated, patient, caring, supportive and friendly. Our son is very happy here, learns a lot, makes friends, his speech develops, he’s a braver eater and tries healthier food. The nursery staff helped a lot with potty training which was a bit difficult for me. We enjoyed an event - lights in the garden, bonfire and marshmallows, it was a lovely occasion to meet all the staff, children and their parents.

Reply from Funke Olotu, Marketing at Tops Day Nurseries: Muscliff Nursery

It's truly heartening to hear that your daughter's positive memories with us played a role in choosing our nursery for your son. We are delighted to learn that he, too, is thriving in our nurturing environment. Creating a space where children can not only learn but also build lasting friendships...

Review from Courtney S (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter started the nursery in September and has settled in really well thanks to the amazing staff. So far we have had a good experience with the nursery, I really couldn’t fault them!
My daughter enjoys coming here, always comes out happy and comes home chatting about how much fun she has had.
She has the best bond with all the staff especially her key worker.
I feel happy my daughter is in good hands which was the main thing for me.
She has learned so much and really developed since starting this nursery.

Thank you to all the staff.

Reply from Funke Olotu, Marketing at Tops Day Nurseries: Muscliff Nursery
It warms our hearts to know that your daughter enjoys her time with us, leaving each day with a smile and excitement to share her experiences at home. Building a strong bond with our little ones, like the one she has with her key worker, is at the core of what we strive for every day.

This is an amazing place with great people, the current manager is a very organised person, from the day she is there, everything is spot on, from this year they have new equipment which kids love. My son loves this place, he is always very happy when he goes to nursery and cheerful when I collect him.

Review from Sarah M (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have had a good experience in this nursery so far. My daughter enjoys coming here, she always comes out happy. We receive updates and photos via the app which seem to go through phases of being frequent and then not any for a while. It would be nice if these could be daily where possible, but I do understand the staff are busy. They seem to do good activities and recently more outings e.g. to the park or library. They have limited outdoor space but they make good use of what they have and go outside to play often. The menu is good, healthy and varied and I think she mostly eats it! The nursery responded to feedback and as a result, are now open for longer hours, which is really helpful as a working parent.

Reply from Funke Olotu, Marketing at Tops Day Nurseries: Muscliff Nursery

Review from Charlotte H (Mother of Child) published on 15 December 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been at this nursery for 2 years and has loved every minute of it. She is really confident and has grown so much since being at this setting. The staff have been brilliant from the start and even with the recent staff changes, this hasn't changed. The only letdown is the admin team but the setting and what Tops do is brilliant!

Reply from Lauren Ballard, Marketing Assistant at Tops Day Nurseries: Muscliff Nursery

I can't express enough what an excellent setting this is for a nursery. The team are amazing and my little girl had the best bond, not only with her key worker but with all the staff. When she finished at Tops, she was more than ready for school. With the flexibility in booking as an added bonus, I would highly recommend it to anyone.

Overall Experience

I have been very happy with my son's progress at Tops Day Nurseries. There have been times when I have asked about my son's safety due to some safeguarding concerns that I raised; the manager managed these well and reassured me the issue was dealt with. My son is always happy to attend Tops, and he is always met at the door with a big smile and lots of enthusiasm. I know and feel that my son is cared for and supported in the best possible way.
