She is always happy and smiling and telling me about how great her day has been and what she has been doing.
As a sen mum especially I am so grateful for all the wonderful support she receives and this has been the best decision I have made to send her to this nursery and I will be sad the day she has too leave.
It's lovely to hear that your daughter talks positively about her day. Thank you for your kind review and for choosing and trusting Jumping Jellybeans for your daughter's care and Early Years Education.
My twins have been at Jumping Jellybeans Pre-school since September 2024, they have come on leaps and bounds in this small time. The staff are very friendly and have supported me with concerns around one twins development. Would highly recommend, they always come home very happy!
It's an honour for us to be part of your twins learning journey and watching them grow as individual little people. Thank you for choosing Jumping Jellybeans and for your kind review.
My daughter has attended since September 2023, and her older sister attended before her, I believe this is the best pre-school in the area. I have never had any issues, the staff genuinely care for the children and are very kind and good fun. My daughter really enjoys her days and can't wait to go back after the weekend, she is always making things that she can't wait to show me, and everyone else she sees! Hopefully her sister will be also starting this September.
Thank you for your kind review. We are excited to hear that your daughter's sibling will be joining us in the near future and that you and your children are happy with our care.
I feel very lucky we have found such a lovely setting.
Thank you for you kind review. We are very pleased that your son will be joining us. We love to have siblings and being able to be part of the family growth. It's an honour for to be part of your families life.
It has been amazing, had my special needs daughter their from 2023 to 2024 before she went to school. She was well taken care of, she improved with her development, she wasn't treated differently in respect of her condition. I loved how she was always included in every activity. I had to take my son also and I believe he would love it.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are so happy to hear that you feel your daughter was well cared for. We have felt privileged to be able to have her in our setting and to be part of her development journey, and that you placed your trust in us for her care.
The manager is a wonderful lady and has incredible empathy and understanding for all of the children. All of the staff really are lovely and take their time to help each child feel at ease and comforted.
I have looked at other nurseries and they were cold and didn't really seem to get to know the children well. But at this setting, it felt like a home from home.
They also do forest school and connect with nature. There is not a pressure on too much learning at once, it is done in a fun and exploratory way.
I am so pleased I sent my children here.
Thank you for your lovely review. We are touched to read your words and pleased that you are happy with our setting and our ethos. Thank you for placing your trust in Jumping Jellybeans for your children.
My son has thrived so much at Jellybeans. He's always been a very shy child, and has struggled with his speech, but now he runs straight into the preschool every morning and his speech has improved so much. The staff are lovely and down to earth. I read about people having concerns at different nurseries all the time but I can honestly say I have never had any concerns, I know my son is safe and having a great time when he is there. Their consumable fee is so cheap compared to nurseries in the area too. My youngest son will be joining in the new year. Thank you for looking after my son.
My son has come on massively since joining Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School, from a child who cried at drop off to one who runs to the door. Staff are friendly and welcoming, he loves his time there especially Wednesdays at their altar setting.
However, the team at Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School have warmly welcomed my daughter and she looks forward to going each week. She genuinely loves it! The child-led approach and gentle nature of the staff have made all the difference. Little one now loves to play 'school' at home and speaks fondly of her time at Jellybeans.
Kind regards, Debbie
My daughter has been at Jumping Jellybeans Nursery since September, and she truly has blossomed during her time at this nursery. We had a difficult start as we are quite attached, but the manager and her team all helped so, so much, and I can not be more grateful. I can't praise all the ladies enough for all their work with my daughter. Thank you.
Thank you for your review. It has been our pleasure to watch your daughter grow in confidence and to be part of her journey.
My daughter absolutely loves this wonderful preschool and always looking forward to attending. Every day is an adventure at Jellybeans! Staff work really hard and go above and beyond for children and parents. They teach children life skills and how to be independent little people. Added bonus is the forest school and learning through sensory and play. It’s amazing to know that my daughter is in a caring environment while she isn’t at home. Definitely made the right choice by choosing thing place and would highly recommend!
Thank you for your review. It's very rewarding for us as practitioners to be part of the children's adventures and their pathway to independence.
Jumping Jellybeans are amazing. My son went there 3-years ago, and now my daughter attends. They really cater to each individual child in what their needs are. They have helped my daughter so much with her speech as she was behind, and she is more fluent and easier to understand now.
Thank you for your review. We are proud of your daughter; she has worked really hard at developing her speech. It's been our pleasure to be part of her journey.
Jellybeans is amazing! My son loves going each week. His teachers are caring, lovely and make it feel like a family. They value each child, learning through their interests and fun play-based activities. The set-up is brilliant, with natural resources bringing the outdoors in, creating a real calming atmosphere that is well thought out and nurturing for the child. They have forest school days in the woods and make the most of the outside area they have. The owner is an early years teacher and you can really tell that she and all her staff take pride in their job as role models, really taking time to give the children the best early experiences. My son has learnt a lot whilst there and particularly enjoys the yoga sessions and even French they have been learning. We are kept well informed about what our child has been up to each day, through photos, videos and comments via a secure app. It is great to feel we are not missing out on seeing him have such fun. We wish we had sent our firstborn too!
Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. I am proud of my hard-working team and it's so nice for them to hear that their hard work and dedication to the children is having a positive impact on the children and the families.
I can highly recommend Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School. My middle son was there for over a year before school and loved every minute. My youngest son has recently started there and is coming along leaps and bounds. Their attention to each child’s personal needs and differing development stages is admirable. I have full confidence leaving my child there to have a fantastic day, packed with a range of activities and plenty to play within a sociable and safe environment.
Thank you for your review and your high recommendation.
My son has attended Jumping Jellybeans since January 2018 when he was 2 years and 3 months old. I sent him here as his brother was here before he started school and I couldn’t be happier with the staff and the variety of activities each day and the resources used. The preschool are very focused on child-initiated learning and it teaches children to explore and gain independence and create great relationships with their peers. 10 out of 10 highly recommended.
Many thanks for taking the time to give us a review. We are delighted to hear that our focus upon child-initiated learning and independence is working well.
My youngest daughter attends this preschool and so did my eldest daughter and I just cannot fault it. I feel so confident leaving my daughter with any of the staff who are all friendly and amazing! With their regular training, you know that they will always give a 5* service to their children. I will be very sad to see my daughter leave come July when she will be ready for school. A 5* preschool.
Many thanks for your review. It's been our pleasure to be part of both your girls early years.
Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School is an exceptional preschool whose ethos puts children at the heart of everything they do. Our son joined Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School when he was two and we have been so impressed with all of the amazing activities he does each week. The online journal is such a bonus for us as we can talk to him about what he’s been up to each day using the photographs as a prompt and continue his learning at home. The offer of Forest School sessions were a huge contributing factor for us when we were choosing a nursery as we have a very active and inquisitive little boy and we have been so impressed. Each week, the children have the opportunity to practice a range of skills and he brings home work he has produced made from natural resources. The staff are always friendly and responsive to our communication in his communication book and when we drop-off and pick up it is clear they understand and value the wants and needs of every parent and child. Thank you.
Thank you for your review. It's lovely to hear that you find the online journal useful and that you can share it with your son. It's something we hoped would be a valuable resource for parents so we were pleased to read this in your review.
Fantastic preschool with lovely staff who clearly love what they do. Lots of indoor and outdoor playing and nothing is ever too much trouble. They are always up to date with learning and very flexible with all ages. My daughter has become very attached to everyone and it will be sad when she starts big school in September, but I know they’ll prepare her well for the transition. Thank you Jumping Jellybeans!
Thank you for your review. We feel privileged to have been part of your child's early years and to have taken part in preparing her to continue her learning journey at infant school. We know she will do amazing things in her life.
My daughter started preschool in September, from the beginning she was very happy every day to go there and upset over the weekend that she couldn't go. Her English has improved a lot and her writing and drawing are much better. She has started to be more independent and confident on her abilities. All the staff are great and they give us the parents confidence that our child is in good and qualified hands.
Thank you for your comments. As a team, it is very rewarding for us to hear that you feel confident to leave your child in our care.
My daughter has attended Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School since October 2020 when she was two years and nine months. Even on the first visit she was extremely happy to be there and is always excited to go in the mornings, I was concerned about how she would settle in as this was her first time in a different environment without her parents. However, the staff at Jumping Jellybeans Pre-School are so kind and intuitive that at no point has my daughter been unhappy to attend. They provide a wide range of activities, my daughter is always bringing home crafts they have made together and we also get to see pictures of what the children have been doing in the day from the app.
Thank you for your comments. It’s always lovely to hear that children enjoy coming to us so much. I appreciate your feedback on our practice.
