Review from Emma S (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending this nursery since October and I cannot express the appreciation I have for all the staff here. The communication, from day one, has been exceptional and the caring, friendly approach from all staff has made his transition into the setting incredibly smooth. The staff here go above and beyond what we have experienced in other settings, they are all very polite and nothing seems to be too much trouble. It is lovely that the management team here are approachable and visible and there is always a friendly face in the mornings to greet us. There is a real sense of community here where the staff are valued and celebrated - you can tell they love what they do. My son enjoys going to nursery and I can tell that the staff working with him know him well. Handovers are always detailed and the activities offered and varied and enjoyable. We have nothing but positive things to say about this lovely nursery and I highly recommend them!

Reply from Emma Goodall, Director of Quality Assurance at Children 1st Wragby Road Nursery School

Thank you so much for such a wonderful review. We are so happy that your little one has settled so well, and he really has become part of our Wragby road family.

Overall Experience
I would like to express my disappointment on registration fee! £105 for registration to receive a place, diary and backpack is far too much! I would understand if this £30/40 - but it should also be deducted from the first months invoice. We shouldn't have to pay a fee of £105 for really a diary and backpack. Highly recommend changing this as because of this fee, we also had to pay a month in hand which is very costly for struggling parents. Registration fee should be deducted at first invoice and I would understand a charge for diary/backpack of example £20/30 but not £105!
Also not a lot of toys in baby room to play with.

But a massive praise for one staff member in particular. We love her.

Amazing nursery, my child has been there for a few months now and I've never had any issues, he's always very happy at the nursery and I'm 100% confident he receives the best care and they are always helping him learn new things and keeping him occupied as he's a very active child.

Lovely staff, excellent care and our little one loves it here. They have diverse activities and our little one is developing really well in this environment. They have a varied meal system that means our little one also gets to try lots of different foods and snacks throughout their days. You can tell the staff care.

Overall Experience

My son is 2 yrs old. I put him in the nursery with lots of confused feelings as it's a new place with new faces, new language and new habits. I had to start my job and so I had to take this decision but to my surprise he has got along so well. He is learning things and doing well in many activities. I am very happy with Children 1st as they are taking good care of him and he has adapted to new things all because of the care and learning he is getting there. Thank you!

My son has recently changed rooms at nursery and the staff have made it seem less for him. He enjoys going to nursery and even though some days he doesn't like drop off, he's always smiling by the time I pick him up.

Our little girl has been attending the nursery since she turned one in January and absolutely loves going. She loves all the staff, playing with her friends, and especially loves being out in the garden! We're very happy with her development and her relationship with her key workers.

My grandson has been attending Wragby Road since he was 8 months old.

The staff are friendly and helpful. My grandson is full-time and always comes out of nursery telling us all the things he's done in the day.

Review from Nick T (Father of Child) published on 13 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
All staff members are very friendly, our little one clearly has created an attachment with his carers.
Admin staff are on point. Always call when there's even the most minute accident. I once forgot my fob key and because the member of staff did not recognize me, they had to check with my little one assigned carer in the classroom and get their ok to let me in, which made me very happy that they followed procedure to the T. Also, the meals our boy has been having every day actually make me jealous.

5 stars all around in my opinion.

Our child had an absolutely amazing and fun time at Children's 1st at Wragby Road. They are very professional and genuinely care for the children. Our little one enjoys the food menu and the daily activities to support her development. She looks forward to going to the nursery every day.

Childrens 1st is a wonderful nursery. My little boy has settled so well and loves his time there. All staff are very welcoming, polite and friendly. We love the variety of activities that take place, how well-organised the room is and how each staff member knows our son and builds a positive relationship with him.

Overall Experience

My little one has been going here since they were 9 months old, we've had a couple of issues but they were quickly resolved once staff was aware. Everyone has been so friendly, nice, and enthusiastic about my little ones' learning journey especially as they need a bit of an extra helping hand. My little one loves going to nursery and has made lots of friends there, they are always super excited to tell me about their day.

Review from Danielle P (Mother of Child) published on 6 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Children 1st on Wragby Road have been a huge part of our lives since my first little girl attended. The staff have all become part of our family. My first started back in 2019, I was a first-time mummy and handing her over to the team was painstaking but I knew she was in safe hands. Fast forward to her leaving and joining school, the staff in each room nourished her mind and helped her grow into the independent little girl she is today. Along came my second in 2020. She joined the nursery earlier than expected in 2021 as I had to go back to work earlier than usual due to COVID and the reduced staff in the pharmacy. But she thrived. With the nursery staff's help, we have overcome the difficult behaviour, the biting (which was incredibly hard to overcome!) And just the general toddler/threenager stage. And it's been hard work! But with their support and advice, we're over that hump and progressing towards her starting school.

I can't express how thankful we truly are.

My daughter is getting more confident thanks to the staff at nursery and she’s coming out of her shell more. She always seems to have a good time there. The only thing I can say is that if my child has a spare jumper in the bag, can you please put it on her as it’s not warm enough just to be in a T-shirt.

Really happy with Children 1st @ Wragby Road, both my children love attending. Lots of care and attention across all the rooms my kids have attended. Fresh variety of meals and snacks too. My son, in early years, talks about how much fun he has all the time and loves the staff.

Overall Experience
Our little girl started at Children 1st @ Wragby Road in November when she was six months old. We were first-time parents navigating our first childcare journey, and the team at Wragby Road has gone above and beyond helping our daughter (and us!) settle into nursery life!

Our daughter is always greeted with a welcoming voice, a friendly smile and a happy face! Her key workers have been truly wonderful, and we feel completely at ease dropping her off every day. Thank you to all for such a lovely experience; we can't wait to watch her continue her journey at Children 1st Wragby Road!

My daughter started at the beginning of December, and from day one, she has always just walked in, had a few days where she wasn’t sure, but think that was down to her having a cold. Every staff member has been so patient and welcoming to my daughter. Thank you so much.

I cannot fault Children 1st Wragby Road Nursery for my little girl. From the very first day, we both felt so welcomed and my little one absolutely loves her time at the nursery. The staff are all so welcoming and so friendly and they are always on hand if I have any questions. My little girl absolutely adores the staff from her previous class! And she now loves her current key workers! They are all so good with her and I can’t thank them enough for looking after my little girl!

Joanna ParkerJob Title:Nursery ManagerJoined: 2018

Hello, my name is Joanna Parker and I joined Children 1st in 2018. I completed my NNEB and have worked in various roles within nurseries, working my way up from Nursery Nurse to Nursery Manager.

I’m particularly proud of achieving my Foundation Degree in Early Years through the Open University while working, which gave me a Level 5 qualification.

I really enjoy working with families — from welcoming them on their very first visit to seeing them begin their nursery journey with us. I love organising family events and creating opportunities for them to be part of nursery life.

I feel very passionate about making sure every family feels included in our setting and knows they can turn to us for support whenever they need it. I’m also proud to work alongside an amazing team who go above and beyond every day to provide high-quality learning and care for every child. Supporting my team and helping each member reach their full potential is something I value highly in my role.
