Fantastic school caring, loving and accommodating. My son loved to go all the time, despite the fact he is meant to attend two days a week. I would recommend My First Friend school to everyone I come across always.
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it!
The staff are great and listen to your concerns and really put your mind at ease. Nothing is too much bother.
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it!
Management is easily accessible and has provided flexibility and assisted in booking additional sessions which is greatly appreciated.
The app is good, staff provide continuity and regular updates. Staff always make time to communicate at the end of the day.
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it!
Couldn’t have asked for anything more. All the staff are lovely and so caring to all the kids. My daughters absolutely love going there and feel so comfortable. It means so much to see your children happy and comfortable and I feel so at ease leaving them to play with all their friends.
Thank you for your review, we really appreciate it!
My First Friend Nursery and all the lovely staff were part of both my son's development and first stages in life and helped prepare them for school through creative and educational activities.
They also learnt the months of the year, the days of the week, the numbers, etc, through play and songs that were easy to memorise.
A big thank you to all the team.
Thank you so much for your review, it is much appreciated!
I loved the photo and activity updates but these are now less frequent.
I love how friendly all the staff are, they feel like family when we pick up our child. They always listen when we have additional needs.
Thank you for your review. As a group, we are always trying to improve our communication with our families. We aim to provide high quality and regular updates through our monthly nursery newsletter, bi-monthly group newsletter and via our parent app. Following the recent changes to the EYFS in...
No bad words at all against what they do and support my child's progress. My baby started in March with no English at all, they were so patient and gave me feedback on what to do step by step. Actually, my elder daughter was there in 2017 as well and I was so pleased with the support and friendly staff there and that's why I have no doubt of choosing them again when my second daughter is reaching the age. Highly recommended them, I have told so many of my friends already about how good they are.
Hi and thank you so much for your review, we really appreciate it!
Our son has been going here since he was 1 and we have always had a wonderful experience with My First Friends. The staff are lovely and attentive. He has been very happy there and we will be sad for him to leave!
Hi, thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it!
They have adapted to change particularly well and have managed parents through this process with very little if any impact to the children. This is their recent joining of a wider nursery group. My only worry is the individuality of the nursery remains. Having had the removal of their own social media page and presence is a concern. However, the collaboration can only support the needs of the children.
Staff can not do enough for you and more importantly for your child.
We aim to embrace the individuality of each of our nurseries, whilst creating a similar feeling and ethos across all to reflect the values of...
My son is not your average 2 and a half year old, he's nonverbal and struggles with socialising with other children, however, while going to nursery he learnt how to deal with things out of his control, share with others and is trying to communicate more with others.
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it!
Very friendly staff who always do their best to fulfil the parent's needs. The nursery has a good outdoor play area which is great as my son loves it but I believe that children should go out only if the weather is adequate or under their parent's authorisation.
Thank you for your feedback, we really appreciate it!
My child has been attending since nine months old, and they have absolutely thrived by being at the nursery and love going every week. The staff are lovely, approachable and put our minds at ease with any questions or concerns. I would highly recommend the nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your kind words! Our team will be delighted with this response!
An amazing nursery with incredible staff. Our daughter has flourished in the last year and can't wait to go to nursery each day. The staff go above and beyond to give the children the very best start.
Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to write this review! We really appreciate it!
My First Friends has been outstanding since our daughter started around 2 years ago. The staff are great and supportive. The level of communication is good and it is well resourced. I would definitely recommend!
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your wonderful comments - we really appreciate it!
I love how she role plays nursery at home and it really shows how kind and loving the staff are to the children.
I look forward to my son attending.
I feel confident he will be in a safe and loving setting.

I only have positive things to say about My First Friends nursery! My little girl started with them just before she was 1 and she settled really quickly into the baby room thanks to the wonderfully nurturing and friendly staff. She has recently moved into the D&E room and has again settled quickly, staff at the nursery ensured that her transition was seamless and the new staff have made an effort to get to know her and comfort her as much as possible. They have supported her with her potty training and I feel that her communication and language has come on leaps and bounds with the help of her time at nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your lovely comments! We really appreciate, and are delighted to hear your daughter is thriving and adapting well to nursery life!
The nursery have been amazing since my child started in September last year. Their continued support has made a huge impact on my child’s development. Nothing is ever to much for them to do. The under 2’s team have been so helpful and given me so much confidence in leaving my child in a nursery setting with my child being so happy and settled. Thank you to all the team for being utterly amazing! As a family, we can not thank you enough for everything that they have done and continue to do!
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your lovely comments, it is very much appreciated!
My daughter has been to My First Friends since she was 18 months old. Never had anything to complain about, she is always well looked after, happy and content. Her vocabulary is outstanding and she could hold a conversation by the age of 2. Would highly recommend to anyone in the area looking for a nursery.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your kind comments! We really appreciate it!
My child absolutely loves nursery and all the staff - there's always a smiles going in and coming out. She's always kept clean and her speech and ability is amazing. I could never fault the nursery one bit.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for your kind comments! We really appreciate it!
My daughter absolutely loved it here, happily runs in every day and talks about what she has done and her friends when she comes home. The staff have always been amazing, the progress my daughter has made whilst being there is great. I really like the app which shows what they've been doing throughout the day. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.
