My child has been going to this nursery since 2015 November when she was 2.5 years old. I first tried sending her for 3 weeks to another nursery nearby where she would never adjust. Whereas the staff at Children 1st assured me that she would be fine and like they promised, she got settled within very less time and since been going there. Her habits, speech and behaviour have definitely improved and the credit goes to the team at Children 1st Leicester. She even enjoys the fresh food served there. Will surely recommend to anyone living nearby.
My eldest tells me about her day and all...

Our daughter is very happy to attend the nursery and you can tell...

We have recently recommended Children 1st to our friend after she was struggling to find somewhere she felt comfortable to leave her child. She was so pleased when she visited she now sends her son.

As soon as I visited I knew that this was where I wanted my daughter to go whilst I was at work, and a few weeks in I can say I am really happy that I chose this nursery. My daughter loves all the different activities they do, loves her key worker and loves the food. All the staff are genuinely lovely and I feel totally at ease when my daughter is there as I feel the staff really care for her and have affection for my daughter. I recommend to everyone I know who is looking for childcare.

My daughter has gained so many invaluable skills since coming to the nursery. All staff seem to have a genuine passion for working with children and are always stimulating and encouraging child development. I like the way that the nursery promotes and celebrates all different cultures with educating the children through fun activities. Overall fab nursery and I have already recommended to 3 friends who's children now go to the nursery.

Hi, my son has been at Riverview for 3 years and loves nursery and has built some very close relationships with both staff and children. Baby room and early years have been outstanding in looking after my son. His reading and writing level is fantastic and this is due to the hard working staff in early years. More trips please! Cameras- no consultation!!

As first time parents we were naturally cautious about our chosen nursery however from the moments we looked round Children 1st we knew it was the perfect place for out little boy. It's light and airy and the baby room has amazing sensory experience. The staff are so friendly and are always happy to put your mind at ease, we were welcome to ring as much as we wanted. Our little boy has developed so well since starting there and we feel like they tailor the play to his personality as they do with all the children. I cannot praise them enough.

Thank you for such a lovely review. It is an absolute pleasure to look after your little boy and great to see him develop at Nursery. We are especially pleased with your comment about how your little boy is treated as an individual. This is a key part of Children 1st ethos and is why we place an emphasis on the close relationship we have with our parents.
I will pass your comments onto the staff team who I know will appreciate them as much as I do.
Kindest Regards
Nursery Manager
We moved to Leicester 2 years ago and went to view a few nurseries in the area. From then on we knew Children 1st Leicester was the nursery for us and our daughter. The feel, the flow and the staff were all contributing factors 2 years on and our daughter has absolutely blossomed in so many ways...
We are very lucky to have found such an amazing nursery and that is mostly down to the staff and the way they nurture all the children, teach them great moral standing and inspire them to be individual.
My two boys attended the nursery. My eldest just entered school and I'm sure that he has adapted well to it because of the great experience that he had in the early years group.

My two boys attended the nursery. My eldest just entered school and I'm sure that he has adapted well to it because of the great experience that he had in the early years group. My youngest has been there for 2.5 years. The staff are extremely friendly and they supported us throughout his journey from baby to toddler. I feel that they are in a secure and loving environment. They love the food and their activities. Both my sons developed friendships, great progress and really enjoyed their time there.

About Me
I began my career in early years education as an apprentice and have progressed through a variety of roles, including Senior Practitioner, Deputy Manager and now Nursery Manager. Having spent my entire career at the nursery, I have developed a wide range of skills and experience that I now enjoy sharing with and passing on to our team.
I hold a Level 3 NVQ qualification and am passionate about supporting both children and staff to reach their full potential. One of the most rewarding parts of my role is watching children grow in confidence and independence. Knowing that I have played a part in helping a child develop new skills and self-belief is incredibly fulfilling.
I am equally proud to see members of our team progress in their careers, achieve their goals and grow into new opportunities within early years education.
What makes me passionate about our nursery is the positive, happy atmosphere. Walking into our rooms and seeing children smiling, learning new life skills and having fun alongside our dedicated practitioners is truly inspiring. The warmth, energy and sense of belonging throughout the nursery make it a wonderful place to be, and I believe that's exactly how every child should feel when they are with us.
