I sent my two little girls here for three years and had such a good experience. Every single key worker they had was amazing - I truly knew they were adored and cared for. Communication was fantastic in every room. Amy and Morgan in the baby room send so many photos! It was so reassuring.
Every day the girls did structured activities with an adult that helped them to develop their key skills.
The preschool environment is fantastic. I really felt my eldest was being prepared for reception as they cover the curriculum and have a qualified teacher. Plus the uniforms are super cute.
Alix the manager is AMAZING. She is so kind and helpful. Her flexibility really helped us to make the most of funding and get the coverage that we needed with a work schedule that changes at different times in the year.
The staff make this place. We love love loved it here and really miss it since we moved last month.
You are welcome back at any time!
My daughter joined the Treetops Nursery family in February 2023. To say I was apprehensive was an understatement. The manager and the team have been fantastic, not just with my daughter but with me. My daughter loves to go to nursery, is always happy and has come on leaps and bounds. I could not be happier with the care or environment provided. I know she is safe, happy and her needs are being met. Fantastic place, an amazing team and will forever sing their praises. Thank you Treetops family.
Thank you Sascha, it has been our pleasure to look after her and we also believe how important it is to support you as a parent too. So happy that you are in the Treetops family.
What can I say, my little boy started in around March 2023, I was so worried with him starting due to not having a good experience with the last 2 nurseries he has been in. Wow, this nursery has supplied everything I had wished for, they are all amazing they go above and beyond for every single child in the setting. The Senco in the nursery is absolutely amazing and was constantly pulling myself and my son's dad in for a chat to see how he was getting on and updating us with various things. The manager who runs the nursery is amazing she is so kind and caring towards the children and staff! Our son's Keyworker went above and beyond and supported him so much, she loved him and cared for him as if he was her own. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone who is looking for a nursery! We all loved being a part of the Treetops family xxxx
Thank you again for your lovely words, which I will pass on to the staff too.
My grandson attends Treetops Nursery and he loves it and so do we. We are all anxious due to his health but he has thrived so much and is now becoming more verbal. The staff are welcoming when I have picked or dropped off, staff always give me so much information about his day. I was invited along to a Mother’s Day afternoon tea, it was such a lovely afternoon, great working with families. I enjoyed seeing him in this environment, the way he was with his teachers and with his friends. Hats off to the cook for delicious homemade scones. Real homely environment.
Thanks Denise, as grandparents ourselves, we know how important it is for our grandchildren to be happy, as well as making sure our children are happy too. It has been a privilege to help your grandson settle in and to make sure he is looked after too, in light of the health issues he has had to face. And thank you for the mention of the cook, she is an absolute gem! Always here if you need us.
Since my child has started Treetops Nursery Bootle, he has become more sociable and developing well. Treetops has been amazing, supporting him with his needs and great support to the family. The staff go above and beyond their roles and I am confident when leaving him, I feel like I am leaving him with extended family I'm an anxious mum but all this feeling disappears when entering the nursery and seeing the smiles of the staff and other children.
Thank you so much for your kind words. This is exactly what we wanted to create here, that feeling of family and that any parent can comfortably leave their child here in the knowledge that they are safe and are being cared for. It is always reassuring for us to know that a mum with anxiety can be reassured that their child is happy and safe with us.
My daughter loves it here. I'm always amazed to hear about all the wonderful things she is learning and has gotten up to. A child's smile says it all really, that really is the best review.
Thank you for your support,
David
As a teacher, early years education is something at the forefront of my mind for my children and every day I get to witness the different skills my kids have learned and developed at nursery and the enthusiasm they have showing me what they have learned at nursery.
I couldn't recommend the nursery enough, having a positive relationship with your childcare is paramount and I feel nothing but ease leaving my kids here knowing they're going to have a great day!
Thank you, Lauren, it is a pleasure to be there for you and the family. Thank you for your kind words and I will ensure that all staff get to read them too.
