Ducklings Private Nursery Sandiacre

My daughter has been coming her now for a few months and honestly it's the best nursery I've visited and everything is perfect it's clean the staff are absolutely amazing , no bad things about ducklings just amazing

I can't describe how happy my little boy is at Ducklings, all the staff is amazing, top management- everyone is always professional, friendly, happy to assist with anything and keeping my child busy and happy! I highly recommend this nursery! Would love to mention Lynette and Amy who are in the management team and so great! Thank you for all your hard work Ducklings Sandiacre Team x

One of the most impressive aspects of this nursery is that staff are genuinely looking for every opportunity to teach our son new skills and broaden his thinking. This is done in such a loving, caring way - that just feels natural and intuitive. He has experienced so many incredible things: watching the process of ducklings hatching, external sports coaching (which is phenomenal), helping to nurture the wildlife garden, and that's not to mention the day to day arts, crafts, literacy and numeracy. The staff here are special. They go above and beyond and you can feel it from the moment you step in reception.

We couldn't recommend ducklings highly enough. Our older son attended here and now our younger son does too, which says everything about how much trust and confidence we have in the team.

The staff are caring, attentive, and clearly love what they do. Both of our children have been so happy here, and it's been amazing to see how much they've grown in confidence, learning, and social skills. Both our children have always ran in with so much excitement, which says alot about how safe they feel there and as parents we couldn't ask for anything better!

Overall wonderful nursery.

Following on from parents evening on Friday 6th March. I can honestly say that choosing Ducklings nursery for my daughter was the best decision her dad and I have ever made. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming, they have my daughter's best interest at heart and are continually helping her learn and grow. Thank you everyone who works there and we will recommend and have recommended this nursery to family and friends.

Both of my children have had the pleasure of attending Ducklings for two years each and we could not have had a better experience with not only the staff and the facilities but also and more so the development of our babies. Our two, have built bonds with other children, the staff, and the space within which they have had their communication and practical skills nurtured. As most parents feel, my biggest fear was leaving my children away from home. Rest assured that fear and anxiety was soon put at ease. Now that my kids are in primary school, I look back at nothing but fond memories and the most heartfelt thanks to the Ducklings team.

The nursery is fantastic, the staff are friendly and always take the time to listen if any concerns. My daughter loves going every Tuesday and Thursday and can't wait to get her in an extra day. Well done ducklings

My daughter moved to Ducklings when her existing nursery closed, the staff have made her so welcome, and we have been so impressed by how quickly she settled. She loves being at Ducklings and has told me she wouldn't want to go to the broken nursery and she likes the new one. She has made lots of friends, and we are so happy with her progress and also the amount of work the staff put in to get them school ready - thank you.

Our little boy has always loved Ducklings Nursery. The staff are always so nice, they are also extremely transparent and honest. They are not afraid to highlight concerns or give you an honest reflection of how the day has gone. It's refreshing and important to have that approach. Thank you for everything.

Great staff, always kept me well informed. Always really liked the staff. My child has always enjoyed going to the nursery. All the staff have always been polite and friendly. They have always had a wide range of activities and photos for the family to see daily.

The nursery is currently undergoing a complete renovation and will look amazing when it's complete, it's a shame that my daughter will be starting school soon and miss it.

My child has been coming here since last year, this is my favourite nursery (older two went to different ones). I couldn’t ask for kinder people towards all of my children and myself, the nursery is informative about anything I want to know and they have really gone the extra mile for me. My child always enjoys coming to nursery and that makes such a difference, I’m confident in the workers here that they know my child and what she needs.

well for our childcare arrangements and the nursery manager is always happy to support us if an extra session is needed. I am going to be enrolling my youngest son soon and I’m sure he will enjoy it too!

It'll be sad when both of mine leave for school but it's been an amazing journey and I'm thankful the team have been part of it.

Great nursery, with great staff. Really helped my child settle in fast. Always kept up to date with what is happening with a good run down of how my child has been during the day. Really excited about the new refurbishments! Really couldn't recommend this nursery enough!

Our little boy started nursery at Ducklings in May so I could return to work after maternity leave. As all mamas know it is a very anxious time when they first start nursery and you visit a few nurseries to make sure you pick the right one for them and I am so happy with our decision! He comes back so happy and is excited to go back. The girls have been wonderful and the pictures they send me on the app make my day! I’m always checking the app when I’m at work and it gives me peace of mind when I see pictures of his little face. A big thank you to all the staff at Ducklings.

I feel that my daughter is safe there and I am happy to say that I will be continuing to use them, hopefully up until she graduates.

My daughter began her nursery journey aged three in February 2021 and is due to be leaving in August 2022. During her time with the nursery, her overall development has been amazing. She has developed her confidence and her personal skills and personality has blossomed. The staff have been so supportive in aiding her development and always giving feedback on collection and supportive when there have been any concerns.

My daughter has special needs and been attending Ducklings since July 2018 and has blossomed since being there. We were faced with so many nurseries that appeared unwilling to accept our daughter but Ducklings embraced her. They have such an inclusive not only within the nursery but in the local community too, they attend a local nursing home where the children and residents sing play games and interact with each other. The nursery provides a nurturing and safe environment. We can’t speak highly enough of the amazing staff and will be sorry when my daughter leaves to go to school.

The only criticism I could give if I had too, would be communication with regards to events, we always seem to find out too late that something is happening eg photo day but my child only goes once a week so perhaps this is why.
