Review submitted from a Website Submission by Rosie C (Mother of Child) on Monday 19 October 2015. Relates to September 2015.
My daughter started attending Treetops in September this year. The staff are lovely and willing to help you out with any changes you need to make to the hours your child attends. My daughter is currently in Clever Crocs room and every single member of staff is approachable. I do feel that I can talk to anybody about any issues that I may have had (which is very very rare!) but when they do occur they are entirely taken on board and genuinely cared about by the members of staff in the room.
My daughter enjoys attending treetops and she's always coming home having learnt something new. What I really love about the staff members, is that they're not afraid to give your child a genuine hug!! My daughter is a cuddly little girl and loves invading personal space...!! From what i've seen, none of the staff mind this at all.
She's very very happy at Treetops and I will be sad to send her on to school next September! I know for a fact that she is getting the best preparation at the moment to prepare her for Reception class.
