Review from Onyeka I (Mother of Child) published on 6 December 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Very good nursery. The staff are pleasant and friendly. They seem knowledgeable and hardworking. It took my toddler who was very clingy just over a month to settle in. Now he enjoys going to school and is learning so much. I am very pleased.

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for taking the time to share this lovely feedback, we are really pleased your little one has settled in and enjoys his time with us.

Review from Zuleika C (Mother of Child) published on 6 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I have had two children attend here since 2015. One child attended for 2 years, in 2020 another attended and is due to leave in September to start school. I cannot say one bad word about this nursery it's home to home environment where I feel comfortable to leave my child, all the staff show kindness, support and love to each and every child. They are well mannered and polite nothing is too much for the staff. Fresh, nutritious cooked meals daily by the chef who is very experienced and has been within the nursery for as long as I can remember!

There is always a range of activities happening within the nursery for the children, every day something different for the children to do the staff are always improving the nursery adding resources and ensuring staff are up to date with training. I have regular updates through the app to check on my child throughout the day, I can see what he has eaten, toilet time, etc. This nursery is fantastic! Have always recommended this nursery.

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director/senior manager at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for your lovely, kind words. We will miss your son and seeing you at nursery and hope you will still come and visit us at our summer fairs etc. We hope he has the best start at school and all the best for the future. Thank you for your wonderful recommendations.

Review from Sophie S (Mother of Child) published on 21 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Rydale is a warm and friendly nursery and I've been fortunate enough to have my three children attend the setting.
Staff are well-trained, warm and caring. Their knowledge and experience mean my children have thrived there. I think my children have felt safe and loved which was the most important thing when I was looking for a nursery setting.
Other great things about Rydale include:
- Fresh meals cooked onsite by a dedicated chef.
- Owners form part of the management team and it's not part of a massive chain of nurseries.
- Community events are held regularly.

- Great communication and updates using an app.

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director at Rydale Children's Nursery

Review from Michelle A (Mother of Child) published on 21 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a mother of a deaf child, it is a daunting experience to find a nursery place that is inclusive of your child's unique needs. In hindsight, we needn't have worried with Rydale Nursery, we struck gold.
Ever since walking through the doors of Rydale, it has been evident that the nursery is deeply committed to inclusivity and ensuring that each and every child thrives. The way the nursery staff have gone above and beyond to learn and deliver sign language, from sign of the week posters to signed stories, is just phenomenal and a testament to their dedication.
This nursery has been an instrumental part of my deaf child's development. He is reaching age-appropriate milestones with credit to the nursery working as a team with us as a family.
Not only that, our child is happy. The loving care, the bundles of smiles and the fun that are put into creative everyday learning activities are just a credit to how good this nursery is.

Thank you so so much from the bottom of our hearts.

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director/senior manager at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for your fantastic review. It has been such a pleasure to have your child at our nursery and work with you as a family. Our staff team has learnt so much along the way and continues to develop their signing skills and knowledge of working with deaf children. Thank you again for sharing your positive experience.

Review from S S (Mother of Child) published on 6 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Choosing a nursery for your child is a scary step but I'm honestly so glad we chose Rydale for our son. He has attended since he was 9 months old and he absolutely loves it there! The staff are so kind, professional and they really care about each child. Each milestone my son achieves during his time there is shared with us so that we can continue developing his skills at home. The food cooked is healthy and there is a really good variety so he is never bored of what's on offer. Highly highly recommend!

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director/senior manager at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for your lovely review and brilliant recommendation. It is wonderful to hear that you are so pleased with your decision to choose Rydale for your son, it is a pleasure to be part of his early years journey.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Rydale since December 2020 and have been excellent with her from the moment she started! My daughter is autistic and they've been a great support from the moment it was suspected. They are always accommodating to her and understand her needs. All the staff have been a great help and support to me too and are always friendly and kind! Couldn't recommend Rydale enough!

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director/senior manager at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for your glowing recommendation. It has been a pleasure to have your daughter with us at Rydale and a honour to be able to see her grow and develop into the little girl she is today. We really appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback for us.

Overall Experience

All members of staff genuinely care about your child. They are a home away from home for the children and keep you updated as much as possible using the app. My daughter has become so advanced here and has learnt so much. She is always so excited to see the teachers at preschool. They are always on it in regards to anything and will answer any question you have. Go team Rydale!

Review from Abbie C (Mother of Child) published on 5 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both our boys attend Rydale nursery and they absolutely love it. So much so, they ask if they can go on the weekends!
The staff are incredible - so great with kids and communication with the parents has always been excellent.
They form bonds with the children so quickly, that they do everything they can to help them when they're poorly or if they have any allergies/additional support needs.

Our nieces and nephew also attended this nursery and we recommend to everyone looking for a nursery for their children!

Reply from Natalie Pawlaczyk, Director at Rydale Children's Nursery

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are delighted to have the boys at Rydale and it is so lovely to hear that they even want to come at the weekends. We are grateful for your wonderful recommendation

Review from Rebecca H (Mother of Child) published on 5 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has attended Rydale for the last year. I have no complaints whatsoever. The nursery has supported us through a diagnosis for my son, and helped whenever they can. The staff are also amazing with him, catering to his needs and understanding how to communicate with him. Messages are always replied to very quickly and we also receive updates throughout the day. Highly recommended.

My daughter attended this nursery since 3 years old.
Prior to this, she attended another nursery elsewhere however since starting here at Rydale she has come on leaps and bounds and progressed in every way over the last year!
The staff are lovely they go above and beyond and are fully supportive of every child's needs and wants.

My child has really enjoyed her time here and will be sad to leave as she starts reception very soon.

Review from Lee T (Father of Child) published on 25 July 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son attends this nursery and he has settled in so well, the staff are all lovely and very welcoming and always seem to go that extra mile. My son also attends the holiday club and again he always settles in well when in there and again the staff make him very welcome. The meals are all home cooked by the cook which always look and smell very tasty. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone looking for childcare within the Derby area.

Overall Experience
I've recommended this nursery to a lot of friends due to the care and attention they've given my baby from 5months old to now. I feel at ease when she's there, she loves it (now 15months) and we've never had any issues.

She looks like she has so much fun and has developed a lot since attending.
