We have been so impressed with the whole team here at Cherubs. We were very picky when it came to picking the nursery - and the team here have exceeded all expectations. We have recommended his nursery to others and look forward to seeing the progression of Poppy.

My child absolutely loves this nursery and always leaves in the most brilliant mood. Any time I've had a concern, the nursery manager has dealt with it extremely promptly and is always so lovely to speak to. It's clear how much the staff care, as my child often talks about them in such a positive and happy way. I couldn't be more pleased with the care and environment they provide!

So happy we went with Cherubs for our son, he absolutely loves going and interacting with all the other children/staff. They are so supportive and nothing is ever too much for them. Absolutely brilliant and couldn't recommend enough.

The staff that look after my little boy go above and beyond to make sure he has a great time at nursery. He enjoys doing so many things from dressing up, to baking, to getting muddy outside. He has been going to the nursery for almost 2 years and it is like his extended family. I could not ask for him to be cared for any better!
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We will pass it on to the team at Cherubs South Normanton.
When we have had issues there was always someone to talk to & resolve the issue.
My child loves going & often can't get through the door fast enough!
My child does tend to cry on the way home after nursery because he enjoys it that much!!

I cannot thank the staff for all the support they have given not just both of our kids but us as parents. They've always done what is best for the kids while making sure their development is at heart. Honestly, could not have wished for a better nursery & team of staff.

We've now gone through a whole cycle at Cherubs South Normanton - from baby room at 6 months old to graduation at 4.5 years old. I couldn't imagine a better place to help my child grow & develop over the last 4 years. He is now a kind, generous, funny little boy & its massively down to the work the nursery have done with him on feelings & being a nice person. I wouldn't hesitate before sending another child here.

My child was very happy and learned different things, because in the family we speak 2 languages, he learned English better. Every person was wonderful and supported us throughout the time he was at the nursery, it was a beautiful experience and with memories for life. Thank you very much to everyone from Cherubs south Normanton .

Our daughter has been going to cherubs since March 2025, having previously been at a childminding setting. We have been so happy with how she has settled in. From the beginning, the staff at cherubs have been so welcoming and enthusiastic with her. She has settled in so well. The app is great and is updated all day with lots of information and pictures. We are just so happy with everything at cherubs, we cannot praise the staff in her room enough.

Our youngest daughter is currently at the nursery a couple of days a week as was our eldest daughter previously. The staff have been excellent and genuinely show such an interest in the children. The little stories at handover show you how much they have taken notice of each one. The newest app they use gives real time updates with photos of the wonderful activities they do throughout the day. My little girl comes home beaming about her crafts and loves to show me how she has learnt new skills. She has also used makaton signs from long before she could talk and comes home with more each week. The food is varied and our daughter hasn't eaten well there.The senior staff are just as knowledgeable and hands on know the children just as well. Their outdoor space is outstanding and they spend most day out there all year and it shows in our girls living the outdoors any weather. We wouldn't have gone anywhere else it's fantastic.I feel like if we had problems they would listen and help.

All staff at the nursery are wonderful people very professional and caring they made my daughters time and transition very smooth. I feel very happy when I leave her their in the morning and she gets very excited to go.
Whenever I have a request or a grievance the nursery staff are always really happy to help.
Seeing how happy my child is after nursery is really lovely, and gives me the confidence that I am doing best by them.

I put my 6 month baby in for 3 full days a week, the staff were and still are absolutely amazing, she settled within a day. The way she developed in last 3 months is amazing, staff were encouraging her so much in play time and she had cuddles anytime she wanted one! Can't say enough how great the nursery and team are! Thank you so much!

My daughters confidence has grown so much since being at Cherubs nursery, the staff have always been kind and welcoming.
Staff always upload pictures and give a detailed log of everything my daughter does whilst in their care which is very reassuring. Staff always ring parents if they are unsettled during drop off, I know my daughter is happy and comfortable with staff at Cherubs as she goes to everyone with open arms.
I recommend Cherubs nursery to all parents.

Our daughter loves going to Cherubs. The staff are always cheery, welcoming and go above and beyond for my little one and us. Our older daughter went here and much of the staff are the same with some new faces and although the nursery is much busier now, it still feels a friendly and homely atmosphere. Can't thank the staff enough for making the transition from being on maternity leave to being back at work knowing she's well looked after and happy.

Son started here in September following family caring for him during parent's working day, this was his first experience with provided care that wasn't from a family member. Understandably, we were all very nervous to see how our son would react, he has settled in superbly with the help of the nursery staff - we had tears during drop off in the first weeks but the staff always contacted us to let us know he had settled. This morning upon dropping him off he walked in waving and blowing us a kiss with no hesitation and this is a reflection of how comfortable the staff make him feel.

We're very happy with the level of care and support provided by the staff. They were amazing throughout the years and we are extremely pleased with the how much-needed development they provided for our little one.
