Children 1st Shepshed Nursery School

Lovely nursery, plenty of room for the little ones. My daughter is 14months and has been there since October 2017, she's come on no end, has friends there and is very happy in the company of her carers/nursery staff. We are always updated regularly with comments, photos and videos of her development and what they have been doing as well as her daily diary. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone, staff are very supportive of parents/carers as well as the children, good nutritious variety of meals given and lovely outdoor spaces.

My child loves Children 1st @ Shepshed, he has been going for nearly 2 years and I have no concerns with the nursery.

My child started at the end of April and was immediately settled. He has been to two settings previously and even after months in one and years in the other, he would still be tearful on drop-off sometimes. From day 1, my child has been happy to go into Children 1st @ Shepshed! The staff are so welcoming and the environment is nurturing and stimulating. Although my child was only used to being in a setting part-time, he has settled in brilliantly into a full-time place within this setting thanks to the supportive staff and the exciting child-centred indoor and outdoor spaces.

My son has really enjoyed his first couple of months at Nursery. He has really developed his skills and we have no problems in dropping him off each morning. It looks like he has made good friends with the staff and also the other children in his group. We are really happy with everything.

Fantastic nursery - my son is safe, happy and learns new things every day. Staff are fantastic and do a huge variety of activities with the children. Nothing is too much trouble. Healthy food provided, good, stable routines in place and staff who listen to parents and work with them.

Both of our children have attended Children 1st in Shepshed and we have been happy with the care and facilities the nursery has provided. The staff, in general, are approachable and helpful. The facilities are good, well looked after and seem to be renewed and updated often, both of our boys have especially enjoyed playing and working on the computers. The outside space is fantastic and is what sold the nursery to us, such a large open space with lots of activities to keep the children entertained whatever the weather. Children's 1st first in Shepshed is a good nursery and one that we have recommended and would again in the future.

My son and daughter have both been to this nursery and have both loved it. They have a different theme every week, last week it was space themed and we built a rocket at home to take in. My daughter is always coming home with artwork that she's created. The EY log is also a wonderful aspect, being able to have a look what she's been up to today and talking to her about it. She's truly blossomed into a wonderful, clever little girl who is very confident at making new friendships. I have no concerns to her heading into school thanks to the help of children first Shepshed. Thank you

My little girl has been at this nursery full time since she was 8 months old. We love it and more importantly, she loves it. The staff are fantastic and they are with us every step of the way encouraging and assisting in her development. The things she has learned surprises me sometimes! I would 100% recommended this nursery to others.

My daughter has been attending Children 1st Shepshed since she was 9 months old. She settled very quickly and has always been happy to be left there. She's developing very well and loves the activities during the day. She eats all her meals and continues to be open to new foods at home. I love the app which is updated regularly with her daily activities. The staff are always happy and enthusiastic and very well informed on the day's events. Any issues we have had have been dealt with quickly, discreetly and professionally by the management team. We're very happy with the level of care provided and have total peace of mind throughout the day!

I would definitely recommend Children1st @ Shepshed for parents wanting quality care for their children.

A fabulous team, who have been wonderfully supportive in caring for my diabetic son. They have attended training to learn how to deal with his complex needs and implemented what they have learnt with great success. I can not praise them highly enough. Each day my son attends I trust them with his life and am 100% confident that he is safe.

This nursery is by far the best nursery in Shepshed, I wish I had sent my oldest here too! My daughter loves coming to nursery and playing with her friends, she's always got lots to tell me when I pick her up. All the staff are very friendly and welcoming too!

The facility is wonderful also really clean modern loads for the children to do. They are really flexible and helpful. I feel really confident in their service.

They are also very understanding and supportive.

I am a single working mother and I have had my son in 3 different establishments and none have come close I am so happy with the service, staff and facility. I constantly tell people.... sad I know.

I also would love to attend myself if only to go down that slide or have a go in the soft play :)

My eldest son, 3, has attended for two and a half years and we have always felt he is looked after in the best way. He has learnt a lot in his time at nursery and enjoys going. We as a family have built a great relationship with staff and management. My youngest son, 10 months, has just started at the nursery and has settled in really well. He goes into nursery happy and smiley and leaves the same. The staff are all very professional!!

Fantastic nursery. Very considerate staff. Good learning activities and supportive staff. Happy with everything.
