My kid is really enjoying going to Ladybirds nursery. Staff is very good and reliable, he managed to learn a lot of new things there, his skills have improved. He learns the language and is very satisfied with his skills at the moment.

Overall Experience

My little boy loves to go to nursery, he always comes home exhausted after such a fun-filled day. I just love to see the pictures they post on the nursery's page and get us to see all the fun they really do have. Highly recommend this nursery, there is so much to do; brilliant outdoor space that they use, whatever the weather.

Reply from Joanne Burke, Manager at Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery

Thank you very much for this wonderful review. We really do love to explore the outdoors with the children come rain or shine. We are glad your son enjoys his time here.

Overall Experience

I recommend Ladybirds Nursery 100%. The staff have been fantastic settling in my little girl and keep me up to date on how she has been throughout the day, e.g whats she's played with, eaten and how she has been in general. By looking at the App family, they set up exciting activities suited for each child's needs and ages. I'm so happy I choose this setting as my daughter is thriving in all areas and making lots of friends e.g staff and children.

Overall Experience

My little girl currently attends this nursery and she waits all week till she can attend, she loves all her teachers and her friends and is always coming home to tell us great things that she’s done that day. Highly impressed and would definitely recommend! She has great meals and snack times, takes part in so many activities and the best of it is she is also learning too! A big thank you to all the staff at the nursery!

Review from Emma K (Mother of Child) published on 15 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I could not recommend this nursery enough, both my boys went there from being babies, starting off in the baby room all the way through to pre-school. It's always so friendly and welcoming, the staff are amazing and always have your child's best interests at heart and make their learning fun every day, really getting to know them well, ensuring all their needs were always met. They both left nursery happy and full of confidence starting school and were definitely school ready. The outdoor space is brilliant with different areas for them to play and explore and they had puddle suits so could enjoy the outdoors in all weather. Thank you to our Ladybirds family for giving my boys the best start in life that they could have had.

Overall Experience

I can't recommend this nursery enough. The staff are outstanding. I can compare as my son went to a different nursery than my daughter, so I know what I am talking about as his unfortunately was not a good experience. My child has always been so happy here and progressed in leaps and bounds, thank you ladies for your outstanding care you will always be recommended by myself.

Review from Kim H (Mother of Child) published on 2 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy has been going to this nursery since he was eight months old and he has always loved it. He had no problems settling in at all and I never felt bad for leaving him there once I saw how settled he felt straight away. When he started he couldn't even crawl so they have helped him to crawl, walk, talk and potty train him. The staff are absolutely incredible there each and every one of them goes out of their way to not only make sure your child is having fun but learning too. They have very creative ways to encourage children and like I said my little boy loves it there and loves all of the staff I honestly think he will be so upset to leave next year. Could not recommend more.

Reply from Joanne Burke, Manager at Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery

It is our absolute pleasure to care for your son. We are very proud of our Ladybirds family and how much of a big part we play in the children's and their families' lives. One of the hardest parts but also the proudest moments is sending them off to big school.

Review from Linda H (Mother of Child) published on 2 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my children went to this nursery and loved it. They are both doing really well in school and I believe this is down to the foundation they learnt in the nursery. The staff will always be a part of my family and I'm ever so grateful to them all. They always ask how the children are doing after when I see them.

Reply from Joanne Burke, Manager at Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery

Thank you for your review and for believing in us and the input we had in your children's start in their education.

Review from Nikki R (Mother of Child) published on 2 October 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son was 11 months old when he started and was only there for two months before lockdown so we recently had a tough time settling him back in. All of the staff were so accommodating to him though, especially staff in the baby room. He now happily waves us off at the door, excited for his time there. He loves nursery and couldn’t be happier with our choice of nursery.

Reply from Joanne Burke, Manager at Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery

We are very proud of our staff team and how they have supported our families before, during and after the lockdown, and how they are continuing to be there for you all. Thank you very much for recognising the hard work and care we have for you all.

Review from Joanne C (Mother of Child) published on 24 July 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am a key worker and my daughter's nursery closed when the Pandemic started at the end of March 2020. I was worried for my daughter because we had to find somewhere else where she wouldn't know anyone. I chose Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery as it was the easiest to get to and from the website looked nice. I was not disappointed because my daughter was made so welcome that she has enjoyed every minute spent there. This is a child who used to get upset every day at her old nursery and didn't like going and couldn't wait to leave. The change in my daughter at Ladybirds has been fantastic, her development has come on leaps and bounds, she is excited to go in and I could not be any happier. The staff have been amazing with my daughter and she has a confidence she never had before. The nursery setting is lovely, colourful and welcoming, and I could not rate the staff more highly. Extremely professional and so friendly and supportive. I would 100% recommend.

Reply from Joanne Burke, Manager at Ladybirds Neighbourhood Nursery

Thank you very much for this lovely review and your kind words about our nursery and wonderful team. It was our pleasure to take her into our Ladybirds family at the beginning of lockdown. She was a delight to care for and a credit to you both. She settled in so well and made lots of new friends and memories. Good luck to her for her next journey to reception.

The nursery staff are extremely friendly and welcoming and it is obvious that they really enjoy being with the kids and take good care of them. I feel I have a good knowledge of what my child is doing in nursery through the family app. My son enjoys coming and I don't worry about him when he is here.

All of my children have attended Ladybirds with my youngest still going. He is really happy at nursery and all the staff are caring and supportive. He does activities I would never have thought of doing and goes in happy and comes home happy too.
