Overall Experience

My daughter loves coming to Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd. We have seen a massive progression in her development since taking her here and that’s only from 1 afternoon a week! All the staff are very welcoming and approachable should I have any questions. Highly recommend Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd to anyone!

Friendly caring staff and good facilities. Parent feedback could be improved when there are issues to feedback but this has been raised with the nursery manager and taken on board.

My son loves going to nursery and asks to go all the time. Staff always try to keep us informed of what he’s done through the day. It’s really made him more confident since starting at Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd.

Review from Kim (Mother of Child) published on 30 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 1-year-old daughter attends Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd 1 day per week. She enjoys going to nursery and does lots of fun activities whilst there. Information given is in written format each day which I like, although sometimes I find staff can be a little distracted/formal/non-communicative on drop offs and pick ups.

Very good holiday club. She wanted to go every day! And can't wait to come back. Always had really nice food and snacks. Wish we had used cuddles when she was nursery age, maybe next time.

Overall Experience

Both my children have or are attending Cuddles. the staff are friendly and attentive and always exceed expectations. The outside facilities are outstanding and the extra activities like gym and woodland walks add to the fun. I am so glad that I chose Cuddles. I can leave my little girl knowing she is in great hands and will have a lovely day.

Review from Esther (Mother of Child) published on 27 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I LOVE that the staff frequently cuddle my little one, especially as she comes in daily and is always slightly overwhelmed at first, a cuddle always helps to settle her. I am reassured that when my little one finds it too much, staff will sit with her, cuddle her and support her.
Staff are great a balance of younger, older, more and less experienced, male and female, quieter and more outgoing which is vital in each room.
It does seem we have to pay a premium for the nursery, however, I think the service offered is high standard
I did have to put one complaint in and I was pleased how well it was considered and acted upon, reassuring me that we are listened to.

I would like to hear a bit more about what they do at nursery, Sometimes it is a while before photos and comments appear in the learning journal. It would be good to hear if there are things that are being generally covered so we could support learning at home.

My children attend the holiday club provided and my youngest daughter was part of the preschool nursery for nearly 3 years. Amazing nursery and I would, and do, highly recommend them to everyone.

Review from Louise h (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

As it says on the tin, 'an absolutely outstanding nursery'.

I have been using Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd for 6 years and only have praise for the commitment dedication and enthusiasm of all staff who work there.

An amazing setting with such varied play from going to the woods to heading out to the gym.

Always a friendly face saying good morning have a good day or good night.

Never a problem when something arises and cater for every child’s needs without hesitation.

I have every confidence in sending my children to cuddles and this has reflected in their happiness.

When I sent my eldest to school, they commented on how ready he was and I would say this is partly down to the hard work at Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd to ensure all children are ready to move into the big wide world of school.

Keep up the good work cuddles you deserve the outstanding review!

Review from Keely (Mother of Child) published on 17 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending Cuddles Day Nursery Ltd since September. Her confidence has grown and her desire to want to join in and make new friends has increased. The staff are professional, kind, informative and have empathy.

Every day, right from the first few weeks of tears and clinginess; to today-full of smiles and excitement, the class staff have been supportive of my daughter and also me, as a teary mum!!

I was really surprised at the level of care that each child receives. The food is healthy and nutritious and encourages children to try new things.

The play spaces are amazing and they rotate around the playgrounds so the children see different toys and activities. No such thing as boring here!!

Thank you to the whole team for being absolutely fabulous x

Cuddles gave my son the very best start in life. He attended from the age of six months and has made lifelong friends during his time there. He is nearly ten years old now. Cuddles have given him confidence, education and love. Couldn’t have survived without them.

Review from Katie (Mother of Child) published on 15 November 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have used cuddles for the last 4 years for both of my daughter's and cannot praise them enough. Every staff member I have encountered (which is many) have been so lovely, and the children adore them. I cannot imagine a safer and happier environment to have my girls in. They make learning so fun and each has a personal relationship with the staff members. They are all so friendly and I will frequently stop for a chat as I no so many of the staff there. I will continue to use them for breakfast and after-school clubs into the future.
