My daughter joined this nursery September 2024 for the first time, they've been nothing but supportive, caring. Good at keeping in contact very reassuring. Very accommodating also. I absolutely love this nursery and I'm heartbroken she has to leave due to a house move.

We couldn't imagine sending our little girl to any other nursery. She has come on leaps and bounds since joining in May 2022. The staff carry out the curiosity approach really well and I like the creative freedom it gives the children. The app that is used to share between home and nursery is really useful and makes communication easy and quick. Fantastic learning environments in all rooms and the staff that you can see are passionate about what they do.
It is great to hear that you like the curiosity approach as we do see the children benefit so much from this approach.
