Children 1st Chesterfield Nursery School

We will miss you all so much with special mentions to two teachers in particular. But honestly all staff have been fabulous I cant fault anyone but just too many names to mention.

Both graduations were amazing with the attention to details spot on (thanks for the tissues).

All the crafts you have done with them over the years all the cards for birthdays have been extra special.

100% recommend!!

Both my boys have been all the way through nursery here and they have been amazing for their development both physically snd academically and they have thoroughly enjoyed the huge garden and well set up rooms. All the staff have been excellent with special mentions for 3 staff members in particular. Great food from the chef.

Really wonderful nursery, staff are kind and understanding. Our daughter took some time to get used to leaving us but the staff were so kind and patient with her and us to make the whole experience so much easier. The feedback is always so personal, they really take the time to get to know the kids. The outside space is amazing and the kids are encouraged to get outside everyday, it's clean and colourful. Overall a really lovely nursery

We couldn't have made a better nursery choice for our little girl - such a wonderful and caring place! I was so anxious to leave her at 9 months but the staff were so supportive and gave us the time we needed to feel reassured and know that she would be happy and safe. She absolutely loves going to Nursery and it's lovely to see her smiling and waving at everyone when she arrives. She has come on so much since being in the baby room and I know she will continue to develop well as she moves into the toddler room. A massive thank you to everyone for creating such a fabulous, nurturing and supportive environment x

Book in, you won't be disappointed

As today is my child's last day, I would like to thank you for providing my children with the best possible start.

I cannot recommend Children 1st enough. I was (and probably still am) a really anxious parent when my son first joined due to his multiple allergies. The thought of leaving him with somebody else filled me with dread but I can honestly say that now it's like he goes to his second family. The staff are really reassuring and I love their open door policy. At times, when I've needed reassurance, they have been on the end of the phone and that support has enabled to me to grow in confidence with leaving him. My son is growing and developing in to a proper little character where the staff are drawing on his qualities. The facilities and the outside space were a great selling point to us, and I'm pleased that from such a young age children are able to utilise all that's on offer. The staff are amazing and I can't imagine leaving my little boy anywhere else!

The staff are all so friendly and easy to get on with.

Cannot recommend this nursery enough. My children absolutely love it, The staff are always so friendly and helpful. There is nothing more comforting at drop off knowing they are being cared for at a high standard.

Absolutely amazing nursery. My little girl absolutely loves it and is so happy to go. 10/10 highly recommended. I never worry when she is there because I know if anything was wrong, nursery wouldn't hesitate to give me a call and ask me or inform me.

As the time approaches for her to leave and transition to the next stage of her education, our hearts feel heavy. Saying goodbye is bittersweet, it has been a second home for our family. The memories and bonds she has formed here will always be cherished. We can't thank the staff enough for their dedication and love. We will miss you dearly. We highly recommend the nursery to any parent seeking a nurturing and enriching environment for their little ones.

My son started here when he was nine months old. His development has come on so much since he started its amazing to see. I feel informed regularly by the staff with regular updates and my husband I feel nothing is too much trouble for them.

He has been supported through his early years and encouraged to be independent and ready for school. We know how much he has enjoyed his years with the Children 1st team and as parents, we are grateful for the amazing foundation that they have helped him develop.

Our daughter has just finished at Children 1st and her care throughout her time there has been amazing. Wonderful learning experiences and environment for her to grow and thrive. If ever we have had an issue it has been dealt with quickly and efficiently. They are so understanding and especially helpful to shift workers. They just understand the way shift work and off-duty works. Thank you Children 1st from the bottom of our hearts.

All staff have been wonderful since day one. My son started going to their nursery when he was 10 months old and now he's ready for reception. They have been supportive of his ECAT sessions. He can now express and say what he wants. He's been more confident in his speech and he likes having a conversation. He was able to follow the song they sang on their graduation day.

5 star and more! Our little boy has come on so much during his time here. All the staff here are friendly, kind and caring. I have always felt comfortable leaving him in their safe hands. They have the most amazing secure outside space, it's so big and kept in such great condition. I love how much he gets up to everyday he goes, it's never the same thing always something different. He's made some amazing friendships and enjoys his time here. I would definitely recommend Children 1st Chesterfield Breedon House.

Brilliant nursery setting - the outside space is second to none and is a fantastic asset - and worth travelling across town to get to. My little girl has come on so well under their care; she eats better because of the excellent food and is learning so much and progressing so well, mostly down to their attentive teaching and support. Forest school visits are also a great bonus!

Our son started nursery in November last year and we were very nervous about leaving him for the first time when he was still young. The nursery team were great at settling him in and putting our minds at rest, saying it was fine to ring anytime to check in on him. He loves going to nursery and we love the photo updates and can really see how he is progressing at nursery. The online system is very easy to use and it helps me feel, as a mum, I can keep checking on how he is doing and see areas he is learning and developing in.

The daycare takes good care of my daughter as is evident from the way she excitedly goes to the nursery from day one. I love the food options and the outdoor play area which is well maintained. I love that periodical observations are made about her personal, emotional and physical developments, it keeps me on track of the same.

Fantastic all round.
