My son is really happy at Smileys and has come on really well. We had concerns regarding the food changes but they were dealt with really well.
We are always more than happy to assist you if anything else comes up. Take care!
I would like to start by saying that Smileys helped my daughter to develop and integrate. All the staff are very nice, helpful and respectful, and I would like to thank every single one for looking after my child! Thank you very much!
My son has been enjoying his stay at the nursery. I regularly receive feedback from his teachers about how his day has been, which is really helpful. My son seems to be getting on really well with his nursery staff and even talks about them while he is at home, eg my teacher did this it that, which is really funny sometimes. I feel my son is really looked after at this nursery.
We are very happy with the care provided here, improvements have shown, and my daughter is very happy attending.
My child has settled in really well, thanks to the staff.
My child is really settled in the big room. She loves the new toys and set up of the room. She loves the staff, and they always let us know she has had a fantastic day.
Thank you for taking the time to review our Nursery. We are all very excited about the range of new resources that are being delivered at the moment. These will certainly help support children's learning and development and give them more opportunities to learn through play.
Very professional, and all the staff are great. My daughter's been with them since she was nine months old, and she's developed very much only because she has the greatest staff looking after her. Thank you so much.
Thank you, Constantin, for your positive review. Our staff are a credit to the nursery and are always pushing themselves to be the best educators for the children.
I feel the staff at Smileys are working really hard. They have been so supportive with potty training. The activities they do every day really help with development. The food is always enjoyed. I would like to thank the tweenie room for their care and for being so enthusiastic. It's so reassuring knowing my child is left in a safe, caring, fun environment.
They tell me this is because of a change of management but the current managers have confirmed dates not knowing if they can provide the dates then leaving us having to take time off work. There is no excuse for this poor planning by the new managers. If you are looking for a nursery and reading this I would urge you to look at another nursery and keep away from Smileys. They might sort themselves out in the future but at the moment they are not fit to be open.
We are disappointed to hear of your experience at Smileys Stafford. The Early Years sector, in general, is experiencing qualified staff shortages and Smileys Stafford is not immune to this. Nursery managers have a duty to maintain statutory staffing levels at all times. Therefore we have had to...
The staff are very patient.
Smileys also offer flexible hours, which is very helpful.
Always recommend Smileys!
Keep up the good work.
Two of my children currently attend this nursery and it is the best nursery any of my children have ever attended. I can honestly recommend this nursery 100%, it really is wonderful nursery and it’s been lovely to experience my children wanting to go to nursery!
My 2 and 3-year-old attend nursery and love it here. Plenty of activities and separate outdoor play areas for different age children. I work changeable shifts and without the flexibility, the nursery offers I would be unable to do my job. Staff all know the children and its lovely that they have seen them from babies through to preschool. They have taken sensible and reasonable measures during COVID without detriment to the children's wellbeing.
