Review from N M (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been going to Blue Sky since she was 9 months old. She is now 22 months old and still thoroughly enjoying her time there. She seems to have built a lovely bond with the staff and always comes home happy and chatty (and tired out from all the fun!). The nursery is always keen to reply to any queries I have and I always get a response extremely fast. They provide lovely activities and trips for the children too. I've just had my second daughter and she will hopefully be joining all the fun at Blue Sky next year when I return to work!

Overall Experience
My son attends Blue Sky, he loves going and is always happy to see the staff. All staff are knowledgeable and able to clearly explain what he has done through the day, nappies, food etc.

I feel comfortable leaving my child with the staff at Blue Sky.

Review from Jessica R (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Blue Sky Nursery are always very accommodating with the days that you require booking which you don't find with many nurseries. My child loves attending the nursery and always has fun and productive days. On collection of your child you always receive a debrief of their day and highs and lows and things to be aware of. The nursery often do trips and outings which my child loves. My child has been coming to this nursery since he was 10 months old and we have always had a great experience. He will be starting school soon and he will be using their wrap-around care. I have full confidence in the nursery and I thank all the team for their love and care for the children.

Review from Gail M (Mother of Child) published on 19 June 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I can't imagine sending my child to a better nursery. It's clear that she loves her two days a week here. She loves the staff and she's becoming more and more confident around other children. Her motor skills have increased dramatically and she is just so happy to be there. We recently suffered a family emergency and the staff were so accommodating and have supported us as much as they can!

I really can't thank you all enough!

Overall Experience

Children have attended Blue Sky since September 2021. The staff have always been attentive and know my children really well. Nothing has ever been too much trouble and when having to change days etc. The staff have been fantastic. I would highly recommend Blue Sky as they are extremely flexible which suits our needs as a family.

Overall Experience

From the get-go, my child has been very well looked after to the point she now wakes up saying "nursery morning" because she absolutely loves going. I love seeing all the updates online and the staff are just brilliant! I would recommend this nursery to anyone. You can really see the difference in my child's development when she's been to nursery because she comes out with new words which is brilliant.

Review from Sinead W (Mother of Child) published on 11 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My 9-month-old has just started at Blue Sky and he loves it! I can tell from the moment I drop him off, he is smiling and keen to go inside. He is always in a good mood when I pick him up, happy and chatty! The staff are always smiling and seem to be relaxed and calm with the babies, which is key to keeping the babies happy. They are genuinely passionate about being with the children and encouraging them to be the best versions of themselves.

Overall Experience

Great out-of-school club, my daughter goes regularly and has done so for 18 months. She loves it and sometimes is disappointed when she has to come home. The school holidays are always fun, there are often other activities being done such as going out on day trips etc. They are really helpful and flexible and will try and accommodate any changes to childcare requirements.

Reply from Jo Watson, Area manager at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

Thank you for the lovely feedback on our out-of-school club. I know the team really enjoy doing all the fab activities and trips with the children.

My son loves going to nursery here and the staff are excellent with him, he has come out of his shell so much and always has a great time there. They offer a good range of food for them and my son is a really fussy eater but has definitely improved.

Reply from Jo Watson, Marketing at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

Thank you for your lovely feedback, our nursery cook follows the 'Healthy Eating Plate' plan with lots of fresh fruit and veg, lean meats and low salts and sugars so we are really pleased your son is enjoying it.

Review from O M (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

They always go above and beyond and try to fit your children in last minute and if they can’t do the day you asked tell you an alternative if that works for you and stuff. I don’t usually do drop off or pick up but when the staff see us at school always talk and wave and ask how the boys are which is lovely and appreciated and wave at us when driving past when we are walking.

Reply from Jo Watson, Area manager at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

Thank you for your feedback, we do always try to fit children in when we can as we know how difficult it is being a working parent, glad our ad hoc services are working for you.

My son absolutely loves attending nursery. He walks in really happy and comes back out happy too. He has a close bond with the staff team and they are all lovely. Staff have a good understanding of his allergies and ensure that he doesn’t have anything to eat that he shouldn’t have.

Reply from Jo Watson, Marketing at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

Thank you for this lovely review. All of our team have training in food hygiene and allergen awareness so its good to know you feel secure that your son is being well looked after and his dietary needs cared for.

Overall Experience

We have used Blue Sky out-of-school club for both boys for nearly 7 years now. The staff are great, the kids enjoy the activities, particularly the trips which are organised over the holidays. We have always found the service flexible and good value, I wouldn’t be able to work full time without it.

Thank you for this lovely review. Our out-of-school club team thrives on seeing the children engaged and having fun. We cannot wait for more trips this summer!

Review from A O (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has shown remarkable improvement in his speech since he started attending the nursery. The staff greet with warm smiles every time I drop off or pick up my child, which brings me immense joy knowing that he is in good hands. The staff diligently provide detailed updates about my child's activities throughout the day. It's reassuring to receive such thorough information, knowing that my child's experiences are being closely monitored and communicated with care. The environment at the nursery is consistently clean and welcoming.

Reply from Jo Watson, Marketing at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

We are so happy you are pleased with the progress your son is making in our care and with our communications. Parents' feedback means the world to us, thank you.

Blue Sky has been great for our son, who is now 15 months old and has been attending for around 6 months. He's always excited to go in and is progressing really well there. The care he receives from the staff is excellent. We're always impressed with how flexible they are and we're able to just book the days we need.

Review from Kelsey M (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We love Blue Sky, nothing is ever too much. If I need to change days or send my daughter in earlier it's never any bother. She has multiple food allergies and they always send me an email with ingredient lists of new foods before they give her them. She loves her room teachers and her room teachers really supported me when her behaviour at home was causing issues. They implemented a sticker chart at the nursery to help support her sticker chart at home.

Reply from Jo Watson, Area manager at Blue Sky Day Nursery (Market Weighton)

Thank you for your lovely feedback, we are delighted your daughter is enjoying her time at Blue Sky and that the team's support and efforts are appreciated.
