Cherubs Ruddington

Lovely nursery, modern, clean and beautiful garden for children to play outside. Few staff issues recently left us feeling a little un settled leaving our baby, however, it seems this is now being rectified and I now know who our key worker is. Nursery safe, great app online to view child's progress with constant updates on the nursery.

My son really enjoys his time at Cherubs Ruddington. We have noticed increased communications and the team has communicated lots of exciting plans and it feels like they are thinking about future plans carefully. One lady has been a great addition to the preschool room and they have given great leadership so far.

My child enjoys going to Cherubs Ruddington. The food menu is varied and my child likes the meals. Outside play and inside games are great. The nursery could do with a bit of updating to the building maintenance. Preschool toilets are damaged and in need of repair and the building needs a bit of paint overall but that doesn't hinder the experience. Recently staff turnover seems to be high but all staff is friendly and available to answer any queries.

Our son loves his time at Cherubs Ruddington. He does so many fun and varied activities every day and loves the forest school and sports coach. He is very happy at nursery and the staff are amazing.

My little boy started with Cherubs Nursery at the start of the year and has settled so well. The staff have been fantastic, very informative on how his day has been and completing the app. They were so supportive of settling and sending us information to help get our little boy ready. He always has a great time, lots of activities and enjoys the food too. It was lovely to attend a stay and play to see what they get up to.

Our toddler has settled in really well in the baby room at Cherubs Ruddington since starting last summer and loves spending time with the staff and other children doing a wide variety of interesting activities. The staff are really attentive and engaging and have been more than happy to help with any queries we've had. The rooms have a very friendly atmosphere and lots of interesting things to explore, and our toddler loves going out into the large garden. Parents are always made welcome and we have enjoyed attending various stay and play evenings and picnics. The options available for attendance timings for short/long days have also been really helpful.

Having recently moved our children from another setting, we can’t praise Cherubs enough. It was a big decision to move nurseries, but the team at Cherubs were hugely supportive and helped answer all our questions and supported us with the settling in process. Since being at the nursery we have been nothing but impressed with the range of activities they do with the children. Also the level of communication we have is fantastic, we get daily updates of meals, naps and daily activities, including photographs. Since being there the nursery has also hosted a couple of evenings for parents to attend, which have been very well organised and a lovely way to get to know the team. Overall a really happy and positive experience.

Cherubs have been absolutely amazing with settling our daughter into nursery! The whole team have gone above and beyond to really get to know her and make her feel comfortable. She absolutely loves nursery and she is constantly learning and developing, even in the short time she has been there. The team working in her room are absolutely amazing with her, as well as the wider team who have also taken the time to get to know her. We feel so informed with what she gets up to during the day and what skills the team are working on with her, and she is always doing new and exciting activities. Her confidence has grown so much and we couldn't be happier with the care Cherubs provide. Thank you!

Our son has been attending Cherubs in Ruddington for just over 2 years now, and he loves it. The staff are brilliant in supporting and challenging him, the setting is perfect for his development, and he is extremely happy there. We can directly attribute a lot of his development, confidence and communication, to the brilliant childcare and character building they offer here. Thank you Cherubs.

The only negative is, I believe, head office communication and openness are lacking and could be improved.

Fees have increased somewhat recently, although I understand external factors do impact on this.

My son has been attending Cherubs Ruddington Day Nursery for almost a year now and has formed great bonds with the staff and children. He is excited to come to nursery every day and comes home telling us stories about what he and his friends have been doing. The snowdrops team have supported his development and he is so excited to move into the preschool room in the coming months. Thank you Ruddington and keep up the great work!

We are so happy with Cherubs Ruddington, our daughter has settled in amazingly well and loves the staff so much! The standard of care is great!

Our daughter has been attending Cherubs Ruddington for eighteen months now. She has been extremely happy attending. The staff are always super polite and friendly and really know their stuff. The menu is always varied and healthy and she seems to love it! The new outside play area is fantastic.

Our son has been coming to Cherubs Ruddington since he was 13-months-old and absolutely loves it. His confidence has grown so much. The staff are all so friendly and I feel confident my child is being so well cared for while I am at work. Thank you.

Overall, the nursery is great, our son loves coming and has attended since 9-months-old. His care and the staff and facilities are great.

The nursery has an amazing range of toys, books, equipment and we are always impressed with the activities our child does. There seems to be a big focus on diversity and inclusion which we are very pleased about. The management of the nursery in the past six months has seemed much more consistent and engaged/organised. It would be good to have more information posted on the app e.g. daily updates or upcoming events.

My son has settled so well, he loves coming in. Coming here has helped with his speech and he loves playing with other children. He now has more routine and his behaviour is so much better, as he is beginning to communicate more of his needs. His eating habits have improved, trying new and different foods he wouldn't normally do.

My son has thrived whilst at Cherubs Ruddington and has built very strong foundations in all areas of his development. The team are wonderful and go above and beyond to help and care for him. He really enjoys going to nursery. They have also updated lots of the facilities, the outdoor space is great!

I have always found the staff friendly and helpful. My son loves the staff there and has a beautiful relationship with them. I know he is cared for very well.
