My daughter enjoys her activities in Clowns (under 2's). She's always doing new things, including music, painting, crafting and we feel that she is safe and happy. The outdoor area is the best we've seen. The team update us in person about her day when we collect her and also add photos and stories to the online portal for us to view. We're really happy we chose Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school Ltd.
Thank you for your positive inspiring feedback which is very much appreciated. Very much appreciated.
We have boys in both the pre-school and baby room at Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school, and they are both thriving! The facilities are excellent, staff friendly and food nutritious. We couldn't be happier with their care.
Thank you Ellie for your lovely positive comments. We appreciate your feedback and for taking the time to share.
My son loves his days at Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school, his speech and social awareness have really developed since he joined, and he is always smiling at the end of the day. The staff are all fantastic and we couldn’t be happier!
Thank you Liz for your kind positive words. It’s so inspiring for the team to read such wonderful reviews. So much appreciated.
I just wanted to say how impressed I have been so far with Circus, especially the lady in the baby suite. My daughter had her settling sessions this week and she has loved them, as a parent I have felt extremely confident with the care provided to her, and we are looking forward to her time at Circus very much!
Thank you sincerely for your lovely positive feedback, which is very much appreciated
My son currently attends Circus Day Nursery and we couldn’t be more pleased with the education and care that he receives! Each day of activities is well thought-out, engaging and fun. His team of carers are dedicated, passionate and very knowledgeable about early years. I’m blown away daily by all the new things that my son comes home telling me about from songs he learned to stories he heard, role-playing fun he’s had, or outdoor adventures he’s been on in the garden. He is gaining new skills and knowledge every session. Also, he loves all of the home-cooked meals!
My son is very happy at Circus and I feel that the education that he receives is setting him up very well for when he starts school next year, and helping him continue to grow into a wonderful, caring and imaginative little boy. My second son will be joining later this year and I feel confident returning to work in the knowledge that my two boys will be well looked after and happy!
Thank you for taking the time to share your wonderful positive comments. The team work extremely hard and very much appreciate the feedback.
We are really happy with the car provided at Circus Day Nursery. The staff are friendly and caring and my daughter is very happy here. The outside space if great and there are always lots of planned activities which support creative and emotional development.
Thank you for your lovely positive feedback which is very much appreciated.
My daughter attended Circus Day Nursery from eighteen months to four years and had a wonderful time. My twenty-two month old son now attends. He loves his time at Circus, he was very unsettled when he started but the team were so good at helping him get used to his routine and now he goes in without even looking back! The space inside and out is lovely, so much space for the children to enjoy.
Thank you for your wonderful kind words, so I print for the team to know how much they are appreciated for all their hard work.
Our daughter has been at Circus Day Nursery for almost six months. She has come on so much in that time, she is currently nineteen months. She has become more chatty, more mobile, more confident around people she doesn’t know. The staff are all excellent. We get good updates throughout the day. We especially love when they get time to send us a photo.
Thank you for such an inspiring wonderful review, such a joy to read and very much appreciated.
My son's daily life and language skills have advanced dramatically since starting at Circus. Thank you!
My only suggestion would be to set up a little welcome pack - knowing the usual pick-up times and general routines etc. would have been very helpful in the beginning.
Thank you so much Rebecca for taking the time to not only write such a wonderful review but to acknowledge the hard work and dedication of the staff team at Circus. We are all very appreciative and of course will take on board your feedback, which has already been actioned. Kindest regards, Sue.
My daughter loves going to Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school, the staff are all amazing and she is progressing really well. The amount of space they have both inside and out is also fantastic and ensures plenty of variety for the children! Great job Circus.
Thank you Suzy for your lovely, positive feedback which will be shared with the staff team who have worked very hard during the past couple of years despite all the challenges with Covid. Your comments are very much appreciated by the team. Kind regards, Sue.
My daughter has been at Circus Day Nursery part-time for about six months now. She was a lockdown baby and very unsure with people when she started but she was happy and comfortable at nursery much more quickly than I expected. The staff have always been great at fostering a really cooperative relationship to help her thrive. They give thorough updates and very considerate contributions toward her development. It is a great comfort to know that her carers really do care about her, beyond just making sure she is safe. She is happy and confident with people now and although she only attends a couple of days a week I attribute a lot of her confidence to nursery.
Thank you Sonia for taking the time to post such lovely, positive comments and feedback which will be shared with the team. So encouraging to read after such a challenging couple of years. Much appreciated. Kind regards, Sue.
Our little boy loves his time at Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school and always comes out smiling and content. We love how much time is spent outdoors and that he has so many different experiences. He also loves lunch! Communication is always very quick and it’s lovely to hear at the end of each session what he’s been up to.
Thank you Hannah for taking the time to post your lovely, positive comments and feedback which will be shared with the team, especially after the challenges of the past couple of years. Much appreciated. Kind regards, Sue.
I am so pleased my boys go to Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school Ltd! It's such a lovely, homely nursery. It's spacious, has lots of fun and varied play spaces, they even have pet degus! More importantly, the team are brilliant! Even where extra help is required, with additional needs and extra time, they've been generous and thoughtful. They've made time and space for what is needed and the care and attention shows - my boys love it! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your wonderfully inspiring comments Florence, which will be shared with the team. So lovely to read positive comments after such a challenging couple of years. Much appreciated. Kind regards.
My child loves attending Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school. The staff are always welcoming and understand the children’s needs. My child always comes home excited to tell us all about the many activities he takes part in during the day.
Thank you Kayleigh for taking the time to submit your comments. It has been a challenging couple of years and the team have worked tirelessly covering absences and dealing with the ongoing changes. Will be certain to share your positive words with the team.
In my experience, I have always found the management extremely professional, caring, honest and always trying to do the best for your child. Communication is very good.
Lockdown was extremely challenging and the nursery did amazing under such difficult circumstances that have never been seen before! Even with all of the Covid restrictions, the team kept going throughout. I think this should be greatly applauded..sometimes we take things for granted. Great management, staff and nursery, well done all.
Thank you for taking the time to submit your encouraging and inspiring comments which will be shared with the team. It has been a challenging couple of years and so uplifting to read your words of gratitude. Much appreciated.
Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school really does its best in keeping the little ones happy. My son really enjoys all the activities they do and there is so much outdoor space for them to keep active. The carers are second to none and I know all the children are in safe hands.
Thank you Melissa for your positive, inspiring comments which I will share with the team. It's so encouraging to be appreciated for the hard work, especially after the past two, challenging years. Grateful for you taking the time.
All the girls at nursery are very nice and always happy to answer any question.
Thank you for your wonderful, inspiring comments, especially after such a challenging two years it's lovely to read some positive appreciation. Will share your lovely feedback with the team.
Since our little boy started at Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school he has thrived. The staff all genuinely care and are extremely attentive. The menus and food are superb. There is plenty of outdoor space which he loves. Would recommend without a doubt.
Thank you Gemma for your wonderful, inspiring comments, after such a challenging couple of years, it's lovely to read your positive comments. Will share with the staff team.
My daughter has been attending Circus for almost 2-years, starting when she was 11-months-old. She absolutely loves it there. The staff go over and above and genuinely care about the children they are looking after. The facilities are brilliant, especially the garden, which they play in every day come rain or shine. My little girl comes home every day with a smile on her face, and we are constantly kept updated with what she has been doing and milestones she has been reaching.
Thank you Lucy for taking the time to provide some lovely, inspiring feedback which the staff will be thrilled to read, especially after the challenges of the past couple of years. Much appreciated.
Our daughter has been at Circus Day Nursery & Pre-school for just over three years and is into her last year with them before she goes to school. We have been so impressed by all of the rooms and all the staff who have cared for and taught her. She can’t wait to get into nursery each day and chats about her day and friends when she gets home which to us is testament to how happy she is there. From starting to look around schools it’s evident how school ready she is and how much she is learning in pre-school. Circus really have set the bar high in terms of amazing staff, facilities and quality of care and teaching.
A heartfelt and sincere thank you, Katie, for taking the time to provide an inspiring and wonderful testimony/review. The staff are extremely hard working and I know how appreciated your lovely words of support and five-star rating will mean to everyone, myself included. Thank you again and so...
