Child 1st (Solihull)

Excellent nursery, both of our sons love going, the staff are fantastic and I feel comfortable when I leave the boys with them for the day. They offer a wide variety of activities daily and it is a great learning environment for all ages. They offer fantastic settling in sessions for extended periods of time tailored to your child’s needs which really helped my sons to settle well.

Both of my kids attend nursery and it's all we ever wanted. The staff are very friendly and my kids really love every one of them. The activities are very diverse, I honestly see the results at home. I never imagined that my kids will love it so much there, even my little one who is very picky at liking new people. I usually find him in the arms of one of the girls and giving them cuddles and kisses. My daughter always mentions the staff and that she had fun, every single day.

My granddaughter attends Child 1st and I can’t thank the girls enough for helping her settle. They welcomed her with open arms and she loves everyone there like family.

My daughter goes here twice a week and loves it. We had parents evening yesterday and are really pleased with how she has come on since attending.

Child 1st is an absolutely amazing nursery. All three of my children have attended so far and I will have my fourth's name down as of September. The garden is my absolute favourite, my daughter gets so much out of it and forest school is a bonus. Staff are all lovely and caring and there is always something for the children to do! In the past, there has always been something about nurseries that makes me feel dissatisfied but this just isn't the case with Child 1st. My daughter wasn't easy to settle and there was always a member of staff on hand to comfort her! We love Child 1st.

We cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Fantastic nursery! Friendly, kind and professional staff. My little boy has learnt so much going there, not just academically but his social and emotional skills too. The staff are always there to listen and to update you at the end of every day, informing you on what your child has eaten, hours of sleep and what activities they have taken part in. The staff are also very good with child safety too, very strict with other members of the family picking the children up, photo evidence and passwords need to be given beforehand. This makes me feel very comfortable at work knowing my boy is very safe. I also think it’s wonderful how a lot is provided within the price too, including 3 meals a day, snacks, juice, water, full-fat milk, nappies, nappy cream and even suntan lotion. Not forgetting the children learning outside in all weathers. All in one rain suits and wellies provided too. I’m very happy with this nursery and would highly recommend it to anyone with young children/babies.

Child 1st day nursery is outstanding. Two of my children attend and have developed in leaps and bounds since starting there. All staff are friendly, professional and accommodating to my children's needs. Everyone makes you feel welcomed when you enter and leave the nursery. Activities are well planned and are differentiated for each child.

My son is two years old and has been attending full time since he was six months old. The nursery is great, the staff are so friendly, and the bond my son has built with his keyworker is amazing. I would definitely recommend.

I am really pleased with this nursery, my daughter started attending here when she was 4 months old. It was great that the induction period started off with one hour, leading up to almost a full day, over her settling in period. The staff are lovely and you never feel like the hand over is rushed, you know exactly what they have eaten, slept and how many times her nappy has been changed before you leave. They inform you if there are any concerns and I am more than happy leaving her here. Thank you.

I couldn't recommend the nursery highly enough and all the staff are lovely too.

Would recommend Childs 1st to anyone.

Thank you.

My sons has attended this nursery for over two years and I would highly recommend. The staff are lovely and my son loves it there.

My daughter is now 14 months old and she loves it there. She has a good bond with her key person and the other girls in the room and she gets exited each morning when we pull up outside the Nursery. I cannot fault the care from the staff. I never have to worry about her while I’m at work because I know she is safe, happy and comfortable being at Nursery. Couldn’t recommend this nursery enough!

I was very wary of putting my child into a nursery and found it hard to leave her with anyone but myself, however, I couldn’t have chosen a better place to put her! The girls are fantastic and the managers are very friendly. My daughter attends 3 days a week and absolutely loves it! My daughter was very shy and quiet when she first started but now she is like a different child she is so confident, outgoing and has come on leaps and bounds. My little girl adores all the nursery ladies in her room and they have been fantastic with her. My child is a very fussy eater but the managers have been brilliant in catering to her needs. I honestly recommend Child1st to anyone, it’s a very loving, friendly, happy nursery and always has a great atmosphere when you walk in.

Thank you for helping my baby girl grow into the beautiful little girl she is today.

My son started Child 1st in January 2018. At first, he was very unsettled as he had always been at home and we both struggled with separating from each other but the staff were very reassuring that once he settled in he was having lots of fun and making new friends. He is still at the nursery now and 11 months later he absolutely loves it and has a brilliant connection with all the staff. He loves when the music lady comes and especially enjoys taking his reading books home to tell mommy and daddy a story before bed, his confidence is so high now and I would highly recommend to any parents that are looking for a potential nursery for their child.

My daughter attends this setting every day and absolutely loves it now in Pre-School 2. She has made so many friends and has really come out of her shell. The staff are really friendly and helpful and always willing to help with any queries. My son also attended this setting and can't recommend them enough. Overall a great nursery.

Mom I found it hard too! The staff couldn’t do anymore to settle our nerves and make my son happy, especially two nursery nurses, who are a credit to the nursery! He now loves his 2 days a week at nursery and we love to hear what he gets up to at the end of the day. His development seems to be increasing along with his confidence, I would definitely recommend Child 1st to other parents.
