Review from E W (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I highly recommend Explorers Lydiate for everything they have done for my little boy over the last 18 months. He settled immediately and warmed to the staff and in particular built up such a great bond with his key worker. We have never had any issues at all. Since he started at Explorers shortly after turning one he came on rapidly with his development, particularly his speech. They have also played a massive part in his potty training journey and I owe how quickly he’s done this to the nursery for their encouragement after he saw his friends learning the same. The environment is really friendly, calming and safe and all members of staff are happy to spend time on drop off and pick up discussing how their day has been and their development.

Reply from Richelle Cook, Director at Explorers Lydiate

Thank you for your review and recommendation. It means a great deal to the staff when their work is recognised by our families. I am glad your child has a good relationship with his key worker and you are all having a positive experience with us.

My daughter has attended here for seven months now, and she loves it. The staff are so friendly, the owners are very approachable and professional, and it has recently had a refurb, which is looking wonderful. Would highly recommend!

Review from Clare H (Mother of Child) published on 25 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Great nursery - my little boy loves it. Staff are well organised, and the nursery procedures run smoothly. A lot of time has been spent enhancing and renovating the nursery to create a calm, explorative environment for the little ones.
As parents, we are kept well informed of current issues or news relevant to the age groups of the children, which is always useful.
We are really pleased with the level of care provided.

Thank you to the staff and owners.

Review from Colin D (Grandfather of Child) published on 25 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Exceptional staff who are educating our granddaughters ready for school. Good communication via the app on what the girls have done on the day, along with food consumed.

Management has been very good in accommodating the girls while their nanny is in hospital.

Reply from Richelle Cook, Director at Explorers Lydiate

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that you like the app as it is so useful for seeing what the children are doing during the day and what their routines are like. We are always happy to help where we can and are pleased that the managers are approachable. The staff will be really pleased with your feedback!

Review from Emma M (Mother of Child) published on 20 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Honestly could not say a bad word about Explorers and their staff.
From the nursery teachers to the chefs, everything is done with so much care and attention to ensure the children are happy, healthy, learning, and thriving.

My little boy attends for two days and within the time he has been there he has developed so much. My son is always so happy going in and when I pick him up he has a beaming smile and is in a great mood, which solidifies that he is having the best time during the day. We love it so much, and know we made the right decision putting him into little explorers!

Reply from Richelle Cook, Director at Explorers Lydiate

Thank you very much for your review. Feedback from families is really what we pride ourselves on and knowing the children are cared for and happy means a lot to us owners. We have a wonderful, caring, and dedicated team who put the children at the center of what they do no matter their role.

I am so happy with the start my son has had to his nursery, Parklands. The manager and all the staff are so approachable and caring towards my son and we have noticed him come on so much since starting there. Can't recommend enough.

We moved our little boy to Parklands after a house move and he fitted right in, the staff are so welcoming and he has so much fun when he goes. We especially love the photo uploads from the day's activity.

Review from Suzi M (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my children have attended Parklands nursery - my daughter still being there, she did take a little longer to settle in than my son but now she absolutely loves it and asks every day “is it nursery today” which for me speaks volumes that she wants to go every day. All the staff are fantastic and really friendly, and I especially love all the effort and ideas that they come up with to support her development and teaching her different topics just a few recently mini beasts, healthy eating and looking after ourselves. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Review from Charlene K (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This nursery is a great place for children to learn. My daughter attended the nursery and now my son does and they love it. Each member of staff are brilliant and really do go the extra mile. I viewed a large number of nurseries and this stood out and I couldn’t think of any other place I would trust with my children. Now my daughter attends school I always receive comments on how confident and clever she is and it’s because she had a great start by attending Parklands Kirkby and it is definitely money well spent. Cannot thank all the staff enough.

I’ve used the services of Parklands nursery since 2015 for both of my daughters. Both have attended and received high-quality care and been very happy within the setting.

The staff are open, approachable and put the children’s welfare first.

Review from Jo D (Mother of Child) published on 21 June 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our children have been at Parklands for 3-years and have loved every minute. The staff are caring and attentive, and the boys have come on leaps and bounds in their care. The outdoor space is fantastic, and they encourage outdoor play whenever the weather permits.
They’ve also been fantastic since being able to open after the first lockdown last year and make sure the kids are in a safe environment every day.

Highly recommend!

Brilliant nursery. My little girl loves it and especially loves when they go out playing in the garden. She loves her aunties and will miss them terribly when she leaves, but won't be long until my son is with them. Great nursery.
