Review from Terrae L (Mother of Child) published on 19 October 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
Our little boy started at Holyrood Easter 2022 and we cannot deny the progress he has made! He loves coming to nursery and has formed such good bonds with the staff. We love to see him reach out for cuddles in the morning at drop-off, it reassures us to know he feels safe and secure here. We would 100% recommend Holyrood and have no regrets in choosing this nursery for our baby.

Special thanks to the manager and the team for making him feel so welcome.

My daughter has spent the last 4 years at Holyrood.
She has made lots of friends and become very fond of the staff in every room.
She will miss everyone!
She has loved learning and growing in the environment.

She will be sad to go.

My daughter came to Holyrood Nursery Castleton and now my son does too. They both absolutely love it. The staff are amazing with them and we have noticed how much they have come on. I wouldn't send them anywhere else.

Review from Jessica P (Mother of Child) published on 21 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Holyrood Nursery have made it possible for me to find a perfect work-life balance and have supported not only my son but myself through a tough transition period. All the staff go above and beyond and my son has come on leaps and bounds since being here. Knowing my son is in a safe and trusted environment allows me to take a step back and allow my son to grow and learn independently. My son is a really fussy eater at home but the food given at nursery is so good he eats everything and sometimes has seconds!

I cannot thank all the amazing staff enough.

Overall Experience

I have experienced great things with the nursery since my son has started, since the New Year. My son's keyworker has reassured me and been very informative with what he has been doing on a day to day basis. All the workers in his room have been really friendly and understanding. My son is very happy when he arrives at nursery and can see his development progressing. Keep up the great work Holyrood!
