Children 1st Plumtree Nursery School

We have used the nursery in Plumtree for both of our children for 6 years now. The staff are fantastic. The setting is incredible and continuously improves. Both of our children have loved being at the nursery (the youngest still does) and the start to their educational development has been fantastic. Highly recommended.

I’ve been using this nursery for almost four years now across both my children, and the staff and facilities have all been amazing. My children have been very content and happy there, and the staff have always made me feel at ease leaving them there.

We have had a wonderful experience with our daughter going to Children 1st at Plumtree - the staff work to a high standard and take care of our daughter - she comes home telling us all about what she's done and singing a new song nearly every day! The food provided is excellent, and the staff are brilliant.

Our daughter has been attending Children 1st @ Plumtree since she was 11 months old. She's now nearly 2 and a half and still loves going to nursery! All the staff are amazing and she's formed close bonds with key workers in each room she's been in. It's so lovely to see her thriving and learning new things each week, as well as making friends and gaining her independence! Returning to work after a year of maternity leave was hard, but knowing my daughter was being looked after in such a brilliant and caring environment really helped. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery to anyone looking for a childcare setting for their little one.

Children 1st @ Plumtree is amazing. The management team are so supportive and always goes the extra mile for our family. My eldest used to attend before going to school and my youngest is currently in setting now. All throughout both of my children’s time at Children 1st the staff have been wonderful, providing outstanding care and teaching and learning throughout. I highly recommend Children 1st @ Plumtree.

The environment is lovely, they have lots of different areas inside and it’s always very clean. The garden is very big and my kids love playing out there everyday. They go out twice a day at least. The nursery have different themes each week, which is fun and interesting for the children. They are always excited to go in and they learn a lot. I would 100% recommend them!

My daughter attended Children's 1st Plumtree from 1 year to 4 years and she made some incredible friends, not only with the children but the staff also. She came on in leaps and bounds throughout each class so it was a no-brainer to start my son here at 6 months. He's now 16 months and is loved by all the staff and they've brought out his character so well. We've never had an issue and both kids always looked forward to a day at nursery. I cannot recommend them enough!

I couldn’t have imagined feeling so comfortable leaving my daughter at nursery. She absolutely loves her time there and has formed a really special bond with all of her key workers. They work so hard to get to know the children individually so I feel really comfortable that they would know straight away if something wasn’t right with her. Thank you very much Children 1st!

I have only good things to say about Children 1st Plumtree. The staff are amazing and really care about the children. The facilities are fantastic and way better than any of the other nurseries we looked at in the local area. Our daughter absolutely loves the time she spends at nursery and I have always been super happy and comfortable with the way she has been looked after.

Our little girl has attended from 9 months old and gradually increased her attendance, she settled well and is always happy to go, we are very protective and as her guardians we have had her from birth, Children 1st have been superb in every way, we are able to bring minor concerns to them as well as suggestions on how they can improve the facilities and care, they are always interested and apply changes and make improvements almost immediately. We leave our child with them in full confidence that she is happy, well cared for and nurtured, her progress is amazing and her confidence and sociability is coming on leaps and bounds. Making such an important choice is hard and we are fortunate that with Children 1st we got it right first time.

We cannot recommend Children 1st @ Plumtree Day Nursery enough. Our daughter started when she was 6 months old and as a first-time mother, I was anxious as to how she would settle. The staff were so incredibly kind and attentive and my daughter formed strong bonds with her carers very quickly. We have never looked back. Thank you so much for everything that you do!

My son with multiple food allergies has been attending this nursery since he was 1 year old and I have to say I could not have chosen a better nursery! The staff and management are approachable, caring, compassionate and communicate effectively. My son has been included and kept safe whilst at nursery and has always been catered for by the brilliant cook. I cannot thank the staff enough! He really enjoys eating at nursery and has a variety of meals, starters and puddings. The team here have taught him so many important life skills and educated him about the wider world. The nursery environment is fun and stimulating and the playgrounds and facilities are very exciting! I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

We love Children 1st Plumtree. Our daughter has been there since she was 10 months old, and she’s currently in Early Years, before starting school in September. She has loved every room and bonded very well with each key worker. The staff are very communicative, supportive, honest and proud. She has really come on from an education perspective too and remembers and improves on lots of topics. I would highly recommend this nursery and will be excited for our second daughter’s chapter to start later this year.

Our daughter has been going to Children 1st @ Plumtree Day Nursery from the age of 1 and we have been really pleased with the service we have received as a family from the staff here, as well as the individual care and attention our daughter has received in each 'class' as she's grown up through the nursery. The level of emphasis that is put into education and child development is very impressive and I'm sure is above and beyond what is necessary from an early years provider. We are very confident that our daughter attending Children 1st will put her at an advantage when starting education. The facilities are fantastic too - on our first tour of the nursery we knew this would be a place children would love coming to. Another really impressive aspect of the nursery is the regular communications and interaction parents receive through the apps.

Both of our children have attended Children 1st from when they were around the age of 1-year-old. Our eldest is now at school and our youngest is in Early Years. We have always been extremely happy with the standard of care and attention our children have been given. The staff are always friendly and I feel the children are able to build relationships with the staff that makes it so they are happy and confident in their care. Our children have always been happy to go into nursery to see staff and their friends and I feel both have grown so much in confidence as a result of attending Children 1st. We have always been extremely impressed with the facilities, both indoor and out and whilst we could move our youngest to a pre-school, we feel that the environment at Children 1st can not be beaten! The children get to take part in a wide range of activities, try out different sports like didi Rugby and have fun with dress-up days!

Staff are always friendly and provide an excellent standard of care. My little boy always comes home having had a great day and I always feel secure knowing that whilst I’m at work he’s being well looked after.

This nursery has simply been the best start in life for both our boys. Children 1st have been absolutely amazing throughout our little one's journeys, and I can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you!

He’s had such a wonderful experience there and I know he’s going to miss it when he starts school in September.

Our son has been at this nursery since he was 1 and he is now 4 and in his last year there. The nursery staff have always been great and kept us regularly updated about how he is getting on. He loves his current early years teacher and all the staff in the room, and they have really helped him come out of his shell. He comes home full of stories of the day. The staff have managed the pandemic well with lots of communication throughout. I would highly recommend Children 1st @ Plumtree Day Nursery to anyone.

The team at Children 1st @ Plumtree Day Nursery are brilliant. My child has developed so much as a result of this nursery. He adores the team and always talks about them at home. The learning environment is clean, spacious and bright.
