We are extremely satisfied with echoes and the care and stimulation my son receives at the nursery. All the staff are great and he loves going to preschool. It is also wonderful that there are days out.

Overall Experience

Both my daughters attend Echoes Nursery and it just makes me so happy to see their faces on the drive-in. They are so excited to get into nursery and see all their friends and teachers. My eldest wakes up every morning, even on the weekend and says mummy are we going to nursery today? The staff are outstanding, so friendly and always available for a chat. They ensure the app is always updated which makes life easier for me. We couldn't be happier with the amazing job Echoes does for our girls.

Review from M A (Father of Child) published on 2 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our experience has been fantastic. Staff at the nursery really care about our toddler. They keep us updated about his growing-up process by posting detailed descriptions of newly acquired skills and photos of him doing all sorts of new activities. Our toddler has also engaged with his routine at the nursery so well to the point that sometimes he wants to stay when we pick them up. We are very thankful with all the staff and would highly recommend Echoes Nursery to parents looking for a nurturing nursery.

Review from Sam W (Mother of Child) published on 2 September 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My youngest attends Echoes Nursery in the early risers room. I had no hesitation signing her up after I had such a wonderful experience with my oldest daughter. Honestly, the staff are just the best and I think the best indication of this is they have stayed their distance. There are 5 years between my kids and it was so wonderful to see all the old faces there. If the staff are happy then the kids will be too. Such a lovely friendly place, diverse and kind (they have a food bank collection point). Convenient if you work in town,ike I do. My daughter never cries at drop off, if anything she runs in smiling. Well done to the manager, deputy manager and the team. You have really got a good thing going!

Overall Experience

My son really enjoys going to Echoes Nursery. They always do very nice activities. In the last months my son has developed a lot and he is more social and open to try different types of food. I'm sure it is thanks to the lovely team who takes care of him at the nursery. Everyone is very friendly and I know my son is in good hands when I go to work. I highly recommend Echoes to anyone looking for a nursery in the city centre.

Overall Experience

Everyone at Echoes Nursery is very professional and know what they are doing. They provide high-quality care and education for my daughter. They are very caring, supportive and dedicated. Echoes helped my little girl build confidence, be more disciplined and independent. She has developed a lot through play and activities. Everything from her social skills to her vocabulary have come on faster than we imagined, she learns something new every day.

My daughter has always enjoyed the nursery and has built a personal relationship with the staff. She started at the nursery in lockdown and she has developed incredibly over her time at the nursery and this is definitely associated with what is being taught and her experience at Echoes Nursery.

Wonderful nursery where the staff genuinely care about the kids. The range of activities they do is amazing, so much imagination and thoughtfulness goes into every day. They even ensure my daughter gets to go on trips on her day off which makes her feel really included. Thanks all at Echoes Nursery

Review from Mellisa E (Aunt of Child) published on 8 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My nephew has attended Echoes since he was baby and what I love is how Echoes always feels like home. He attends school alongside the nursery now and when he returns it always feels like he has never been away. The staff are welcoming and inviting and they always put heart into everything they do. He really enjoys his time in the nursery and one of his favourite things is the outdoor play area and the climbing frame. For City Centre, it is a brilliant area.

I have two children currently at Echoes and they are both really happy and enjoy going into nursery every day. The staff are very helpful and friendly and I know they take good care of my children.

Review from Jane W (Grandmother of Child) published on 25 January 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We have recently experienced settling my grandchild into the nursery and cannot praise the staff team enough for their time and patience. Our granddaughter was born in lockdown and she hasn't seen many other people which made us feel anxious about her starting at nursery but it also made settling in very difficult but the staff team took it slow and moved at her pace. They provided reassurance throughout and she is now fully settled.

Review from S G (Father of Child) published on 22 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My son has been going to Echoes Day Nursery since he was a year old. Now, almost 3-years has passed, and I couldn't be happier with our choice! He has learned and developed so much through all these years, and the staff were always there for him. Everyone in the nursery is very helpful, and they really care about the kids.
I know that in a few months my son will leave to go to reception and I am sad that he will leave the Echoes environment and the staff with whom he has connected so much.

Thank you, everyone!

Review from Lucy V (Mother of Child) published on 8 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both my children have attended Echoes (in the old setting and the new setting) and were happy and settled. The staff are excellent with the children, which made me feel very comfortable leaving them in their care. My eldest daughter still talks about her keyworkers as she built such a strong bond with them!
The range of activities Echoes does with the kids are brilliant - stimulating, creative and challenging. Both my children loved the meals provided, which were all home-cooked and gave them the opportunity to try new tastes regularly.
The new setting on is lovely - clean, bright rooms with a great range of toys and activities for each age range and great outdoor space.

I can't recommend Echoes enough if you live or work in the city centre!

Review from Jayne U (Mother of Child) published on 6 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Echoes nursery has been like our second home, and the staff take care of children like they are family members. This is my second child in the nursery, and I wouldn’t have them anywhere else. The nursery is always developing, growing and providing the children with everything they need to learn. I found my settle in sessions very well planned and what I liked was that they were adapted for us, as my child struggled at first to settle the nursery extended the sessions and helped to put my mind at ease. My child can now not wait to get to nursery and is always very excited to see the staff each day.
