My child was poorly and all the staff were brilliant looking after him and really helpful giving him his medication and giving him his asthma medication as they have a lot of children to look after at the same time. Also the staff are great at school runs and making sure the children are cared for and safe.
This year so far has been good.
My son really enjoys coming here, loves his food and playing with his friends.
Nursery is good, friendly and helped my son come on.
Excellent service. Keep up the good work.
I would really recommend Minnows. My son has been coming here since he was 9 months old. The staff are absolutely brilliant, all of them make an effort with myself and my child. He has come on a lot since he has been here, it's been great for his development. The food menu is also brilliant, healthy meals.
I would recommend Minnow as my daughter has come on a lot since she has started there.
My son has progress well in nursery and I feel he is supported well in his learning. I'd have no hesitation recommending this nursery to any future parents.
My son started Minnows in April, he has come along so well with his confidence and is much more playful in activities as a 2 year old should. My son has mild hearing loss and glue ear and the nursery has a speech therapist weekly which is great as he manages only to have it every three mornings at home. Outside they have a fantastic fort with a slide but it is a shame it has no green grass for the children to run more and let off some energy. The staff are wonderful and always at hand to help of give advice . The cook works hard and makes scrumptious lunches for my son. Thank you to a great nursery managed by a good team leader and a fantastic nursery manager.
Very good, clean nursery, looking after my child well.
I am really pleased with how well my son has come on with many things.
My daughter really enjoys coming here, the staff are lovely and great with her.
My son settled very well, I cannot fault the staff, helpful, loving caring and always have time to help answer questions or just for a chat. 100% recommend.
The staff at Minnows are really good with the parents and children, they make it really easy for you to leave your child knowing they are well looked after. They always give you information on how your child's day has been and how they are progressing.
Since my son has come to Minnows he has come on leaps and bounds with his speech and learning. I cannot recommend Minnows enough, excellent.
