The staff and facilities at the nursery are excellent. Our daughter has learnt so much since she started here and loves attending. If we ever have any questions or concerns the staff are always happy to help and are very reassuring. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the nursery to other parents.

Our daughter thoroughly enjoys her time at Nelly's. Her speech and overall learning have improved greatly. She will happily discuss her teachers and it is obvious they care for her and all the other children.

Overall Experience

Fantastic staff. Personalised care. Great support, especially with difficult transitions and adaptations. Tried care for little ones where they work to your child’s needs and development. We wouldn’t want our little one to go anywhere else.

Overall Experience

Our child has attended nursery from seven months old to three and a half. She feels happy, secure and has made lots of lovely friendships. The staff are excellent and have nurtured her learning and participation. They are responsive to all our needs as a family and offer kindness and care in our daughter's learning journey. We are grateful for all the adventures and activities that support imaginative learning and confidence.

Overall Experience

Nelly's have been a fantastic place to send our child. He's been there for over two years now and has enjoyed every single day. The staff are fantastic and we can't wait for our second son to go to Nelly's too. The development since nursery has been really visible and our son enjoys going every day.

Overall Experience

Since our son started at Nelly's the progress he has made and the care he has received has been phenomenal. When we were first nervous about leaving him there we were reassured by the staff and regularly receive updates as to how he is doing. They plan such lovely and educational activities for the babies in their care and make is such a happy place for our son to be.

Review from Jay T (Father of Child) published on 21 July 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been going to Nelly’s for three years and has loved his time there. We’ve seen him come out of his shell and watched his confidence grow. Every day we’ve sent him just seems so well planned, with a theme for learning and a breadth of materials prepared to help facilitate that learning. We’re actually amazed that the staff never seem to run out of ideas. Our son adores the staff, and when asked who his favourite is, he just says ‘all of them’. A super pleasant environment for children, and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Nelly’s.

Review from Emily M (Mother of Child) published on 28 February 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff at Nelly's Nursery have made my transition to working so smooth and easy, they have put me at ease when leaving my little one in their care. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them.

My little one has come on leaps and bounds and the socialisation he gets is brilliant. The staff do so much varied activities with him and the other children. They also pick up on things they like to do and enforce learning through play.

Reply from Rachel Wheldon, Manager at Nelly's Nursery

Thank you for your review Emily! Very kind of you - I will pass on your lovely comments to the staff!

Overall Experience

My little girl absolutely loves Nellys Nursery - she started at 12 months in September 2022 and she settled incredibly quickly thanks to the support from her key worker and the other nursery staff. She gets varied play (indoor and out), lots of attention, good food which she eats (much more than at home!) and there is great communication with us as parents. I would highly recommend.
