Review from Grace C (Mother of Child) published on 5 May 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have two children who attend Banana Moon, my daughter goes to the out of school club in the morning and afternoon and my son is in the baby room. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming and both of my children love their time in the nursery. They do a range of activities and feedback to parents throughout the day via the app, this is a great way to see what they have been doing. I am really looking forward to being able to go back inside the rooms at the start/end of the sessions, Covid stopped this happening and it is a real shame.

Review from Zoe A (Mother of Child) published on 21 April 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My child loves nursery. Her face lights up when we get there and she sees the staff. She also has a great bond with her key workers. She started at 9 months and has been going to Banana Moon for 9 months. There is great communication at the end of the day- we get feedback on how the day has gone; how she has eaten, slept, particular activities.
The staff set up particular activities that engage with different child’s interests. They also do themed activities for different occasions such as Easter, Red Nose Day, etc. There’s a great mix of different activities they do including outdoor play. And a mix of social time, group activities and individual activities to help guide them through different development stages / learning new skills.
There is a great mix of food on offer as well, and they cater really well for my child who is soy and dairy-free.

And the app is great to see how we are doing throughout the day and to see what they have been up to.

Review from S A (Mother of Child) published on 31 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Staff have been really supportive and have helped settle both our children in well. The staff in Full Moons are fantastic and have built up good relationships with us which makes us feel happy to bring children. They are both happy to come to nursery (the youngest is in the baby room and not long started) and both really enjoy their time here.

Overall Experience

From the start of enrolling our daughter we have had a wonderful experience, the staff have been very attentive and caring, helping to adjust to nursery was done with ease. Having the app and seeing what is done each day has been really good. I have no complaint about any aspect of the nursery, the staff to the activities has been spot on and I would recommend it to others.

Overall Experience

I've been really impressed with how all the staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery Mirfield have helped our daughter settle into Mini Moons. She's a very happy little girl at her new nursery. I love how many different activities they do with her and it's lovely seeing her diary and all the photos on the app.

Review from J H (Mother of Child) published on 27 March 2020 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My partner and I are extremely happy with the nursery. The level and variety of daily activities created and conducted by the staff is fantastic in comparison to his previous nursery. Banana Moon excels in all areas and our son thoroughly enjoys going to nursery now, he is excited to go each morning which obviously really pleases myself and his dad. The staff are all very friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable and seem to really care about his experience of nursery and development. The food offered is of high standard and ticks all boxes in terms of nutrition etc. Highly recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience
Both my children have attended this nursery over the last few years and have always been happy, well looked after and I have enjoyed seeing what they get up to whilst I am at work via the apps Tapestry or Blossom.

The flexibility and the out of school club really come in handy too.

Overall Experience

Can't fault it. Wonderful happy staff who genuinely love their jobs. We love the updates throughout the day via the App they are always busy with fun activities and my son (10 months) is excited every day that we pull into the car park. The whole team have made the difficult transition of maternity to the nursery and work a much easier one.
