We are so happy with Zone4kids. Our daughter has developed so much since coming to Zone4kids. She enjoys all the activities and has made bonds with all the staff.
My son really enjoys his nursery days at Zone4kids, we feel it is excellent preparation for him starting school. He enjoys the social side of nursery and loves to tell us about his day when he gets home.
Great how flexible Zone4kids is in adding, changing days when available. Really good to provide holiday clubs and after-school clubs for older children too. Really like the healthy meal options too.
Couldn't fault Zone4kids. My daughter is extremely happy here and has never had any problems.
Zone4kids has been amazing for my daughter. We couldn't have found a better nursery with such fantastic staff and wonderful surroundings.
Both children have been very happy coming before and after school.
A lot of effort has been made to prepare her for the next step - starting school.
The staff are so friendly and caring.
Excellent childcare, very happy children attending nursery. Children have learnt a lot since attending.
My daughter is almost 4 and has been happily attending Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge First School since the age of 1. The setting is everything you would expect a nursery to be. The staff are so patient, kind and loving to the children, teaching key stages that support and improve their development. Day sheets let the parents know what activities have been undertaken and what food eaten. The varied menus are nutritious and the activities are a fabulous mix of fun and learning. Holiday club and after-school care is also excellent!
The whole team at Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge First School are amazing! My son has really come on leaps and bounds and I couldn't ask for more!
Our son has settled really well and formed strong bonds with his key worker who has really aided his transition.
Our daughter has come on so much from attending Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge First School, her social skills and vocabulary have noticeably improved after her days at nursery. She loves the outdoor area and I always feel she is in very safe hands and has had two fantastic key workers.
We absolutely love Zone4kids at Whitley Lodge First School! It is head and shoulders above any other nursery we've used and both of our little ones love it. The staff have such a lovely bond with the children and the food is really great and healthy.
Every part of Zone4kids is superb. The staff are amazing with the children. My oldest son attended the nursery a few years ago, and there were no questions about where I would send my son, who currently attends.
My child has been attending this nursery for more than a couple of years and we tell everyone how fantastic it is. We feel they learn a lot of varied things and the staff are fab!
Both of our children have attended Zone4kids and both thrived there. All staff have been nurturing towards our children and they have had such varied and exciting experiences. Our youngest one was particularly shy and everyone did all they could to help her settle more quickly. We could not recommend Zone 4kids, highly enough.
My child absolutely loves coming to nursery. All the staff make such a lovely fuss and always make her feel welcome.
My son has attended Zone4kids since preschool and loved it. He always leaves with a huge smile on his face and I always feel happy knowing he is cared for. The staff here are absolutely gorgeous too, always happy and always smiling.
My son has been attending for four years and absolutely loves the place. He always comes here excited and happy to go. He even asks to go in the holidays. The staff are all dedicated, caring and passionate about their jobs. You couldn't find a more friendly, caring childcare environment.
We were so happy to get a place at this wonderful and highly recommended nursery, for our son. He has been coming to the nursery since September 2021 and the staff are amazing with him (and us), from the very first day. He always finishes the day happy, well fed and wanting to go back again. He has built close bonds with a lot of the staff and loves the freshly prepared food that is provided. It's nutritious, the menu changes each term to reflect the seasons and there's always a scrumptious dessert! The activities and learning opportunities are fabulous. We love it!
