Review from A W (Mother of Child) published on 20 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Never had any issues. Always been supportive in helping us with her routines and different milestones ie potty training. Love they go on trips to the market and walk around the community. Only constructive feedback would be we personally would love ideas and activities to do together when at home but appreciate not all enjoy homework.

Review from Laura P (Mother of Child) published on 13 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We literally adore Nelly's staff, especially in my child's current room. The care, compassion, love, protection and education they show to my child is remarkable. My child has learnt so much during his time at Nelly's and that's thanks to the staff. Huge thanks to two members of staff in particular for all the behind the scenes stuff. We love you all so much and owe you the world for loving our son, and us. Thank you for the chats and smiles at the door.

Review from P R (Mother of Child) published on 11 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My daughter enjoys nursery and always comes home smiling. She can be a bit of a fussy eater so I asked that when she hasn't eating dinner they offer her some fruit instead of the usual sweet treat dessert which they have done. The app is great and I love getting picture updates when I am at work. The staff are all very friendly and great at keeping parents up to date with information

Overall Experience

We couldn't ask for a better nursery. They go above and beyond to meet both my sons needs. They have created a warm and welcoming learning environment that makes learning fun. The boys love coming and are always excited to go and explore activities and see all the staff as they have great relationships with them all.

Review from Lauren L (Mother of Child) published on 7 August 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We could not be happier with Nelly's Nursery, we are so glad we were able to get a place for our little one. She jumps into her keyworkers arms and cannot wave us off quick enough at drop off. The updates on the app are fab, we love to see our little one having so much fun, always full of smiles. Could not recommend Nelly's enough. The range of activities each day and variety of food offered are also great.

Review from Josh J (Father of Child) published on 18 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

We have recently moved to Nelly's from a different nursery and have been very impressed so far. The staff are all really friendly and we have been blown away with fantastic facilities- particularly the outdoor area, where the kids spend a lot of time, which we really like. We also love that the kids are taken into the community and introduced to the village from a young age. We would highly recommend to anyone!

Review from Georgina C (Mother of Child) published on 17 June 2025 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I cannot fault Nelly's Nursery. My son has had and continues to have the most amazing time. He truly loves everybody at nursery and has built lovely relationships with his teachers, who from day one have made him feel comfortable and happy. As a parent, I feel completely at ease leaving my child there and have always had clear communication with my son's key worker (who he adores!). All the effort that goes into the daily activities is amazing, and I see how my son is thriving in confidence at Nelly's. We are so grateful for this amazing experience. Thank you.
