Both of our children have attended Pear Tree from being tinies (6months old). We can't fault the nursery or the wonderful staff. Our children have adored their time there and they can never do enough for us as parents also. It will be a sad day when we leave!!
Thank you so much for the glowing review, we are so happy that you have enjoyed your time, it has been an absolute pleasure to have you with us.
My little one loves going to nursery and always has such a good time whilst she's there. She has came on leaps and bounds since moving up to the toddler room and the staff are fantastic and give a full handover at the end of the day.
There is excellent resources for the children and lots of choices of activities.
We were going through a difficult patch with toileting at nursery where my daughter wouldn't communicate when she needed so the staff at the nursery made her a little toilet bracelet that she could point to when she needed.
It really is these small actions that make a huge difference and has really helped my daughter.
Great nursery and fantastic staff!
Thank you so much for your lovely review, the team really appreciate your recognition of their efforts to meet individual needs. We are delighted we are providing a good service for your family.
My eldest child went to this nursery and I didn't hesitate at making sure my son went there too. The staff are all fantastic- so kind, caring and lots of fun. There are plenty of activities to keep the children entertained and my son absolutely loves going to nursery.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We're really pleased to hear about your positive experience and truly appreciate you taking the time to share it. Our team works hard to create a happy, nurturing environment, so your feedback means a lot to us.
My child is thriving here, everything about this nursery is a positive for us; adventurous garden, group walks around the town, cuddles when my child is upset, Montessori style learning, seasonal / themed crafting activities and events that can include parents, grandparents, carers, etc. Just a shame this location can only cater for ages 0-3 as I'd happily keep my child on until they start primary school.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We are so delighted that your family is having a positive experience at Pear Tree.
The setting itself is really lovely, bright and spacious, and the garden is exceptional - and definitely well used.
Food selection is also fantastic and I can always be assured my little one is being well fed good nutritious meals.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review, it means so much to us! We're so glad you and your child have had a positive experience of the nursery. He is a joy to have at Pear Tree!
A lovely little nursery. The staff are so kind and caring, they really get to know the children so well. They're reassuring on those difficult drop off days that are full of tears. I know my child is safe and well cared for when he's at nursery and they offer such a wide variety of food throughout the day. He comes home well fed, well rested and happy. I couldn't ask for more!
Thank you Emma , for your lovely review. We are delighted your child and your family are happy at Pear Tree.
My child absolutely loves nursery- especially the beautiful garden and the group baking activities. My child has been well cared for and has formed positive relationships with staff. The nursery have always been understanding and welcoming and the children always seem to be having a lovely time. They provide nutritious food and having a daily diary is really important to us as our child has struggled with restricted eating at times. Staff are good at communicating any concerns. The nursery environment has a positive atmosphere.
Thank you so much for the lovely review , we really appreciate your kind words and we are so happy that your child is having a great experience at nursery.
We couldn't have asked for a better nursery experience. The team is warm, caring, and truly goes above and beyond - both in supporting families and creating a fun, nurturing space for the children. Communication has always been great, and the facilities are fantastic. We felt really supported during a tough phase with sleep, and the care we received made such a difference. It's been amazing to watch our child grow in confidence, socially and emotionally. A really special place - we feel so lucky to have been part of it and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to other families.
Thank you so much for your very kind review. It was an absolute pleasure to have your family with us and we wish you all the best for your new adventure. Please keep in touch and let us know how you all are.
Both my kids have been at Pear Tree Church Street and we've had a really positive experience. Our son will be leaving for our local council nursery in a few months and I know he'll really miss it. Even on days when he's feeling shy at drop off, as happens with lots of kids, the staff are always really kind and supportive, and keep us updated on his mood after we leave.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we are so pleased that we have provided positive experiences for you and your children.
Our daughter has been at Church Street for almost 2 years now and we couldn't be happier with it! The staff are wonderful, so caring and nothing is ever too much for them. We had never done a private nursery before so didn't know what to expect but can't recommend them enough and know our daughter feels safe and secure there. The building and facilities have had an update recently with the children's best interests taking into account when planning it all. I love the photos and updates throughout her day as well. The staff are all kind and our daughter has made such a lovely bond with some of them, they seem to genuinely care. I also feel she has come on a lot with things from nursery too and seems to have build nice friendships. Thank you!
We are so pleased to hear about your lovely experience at Peartree. Thank you for your kind words.
For the care of our daughter but also us as parents.
It can be a nervous time the thought of someone else you don't know looking after your child. But every step, conversation and visit, made us feel like a part of a family.
Thank you.
We are so please to have been able to make you and your daughters experience of nursery a positive one. Thank you for the kind review.
Our two children have been at Pear Tree for 4 years now and we have had only positive experiences. The staff are all very caring and have helped our children grow and learn since joining. Everyone is welcoming when we arrive and let us know each day what the children have been doing.
Thank you for your kind words. We are so pleased that you have had a positive welcoming experience at Pear Tree
The team are super nice and made my daughter feel super comfy.
The environment is very informal and the staff members are approachable.
The nursery has ample of space both for the outdoor and indoor activities.
Overall a superb experience so far!
Thank you for thank you for taking your time to leave a lovely review. This is much appreciated.
The nursery is great, my child seems very happy there, a lot of time is spent outdoors. There are lots of arts, crafts and baking. The updates in the app are full of photos and are lengthy. My child eats well and comes home happy. The garden is big, the toys available are varied and the staff seems very hands on. There is very minimal turnover of staff, which helps my son to feel there like home. The Pear Tree Nursery Church Street branch accommodates smaller children, which definitely helps my son to feel confident there. This is our second child at this nursery and having had experience with few other in the area and Edinburgh, this one is by far the best.
We are so happy to be able to provide you and your family with a positive nursery experience.
Our daughter absolutely loves coming here. The amenities for the children are fantastic and the huge secure garden at the rear of the property is perfect with plenty to do. With occasional outings in and around the town which gives the children other things to see and do.
With full updates from the staff each evening, our daughter is well looked after and the app lets us know what's going on and what's been happening each day as well as her sleep times and meals. Seeing all the uploaded pictures each day lets us see her daily activities is fantastic.
I can't praise the staff enough here, their care and attention to the children is amazing. I'd recommend this nursery 100% to anyone wanting the best for their children's nursery care.
Thank you for your kind words, these are much appreciated.
My son attended Pear Tree Nursery Church Street for almost 2 years and the care was exceptional. He adored all the staff and he just loved being there. There was never a day that he hesitated to go and all the staff were just so lovely and nurturing. He will always remember his time there. Thank you to all.
Thank you for being part of our nursery family. It has been an absolute pleasure to have you with us.
We absolutely love the team at Pear Tree Church Street. The care they provide is excellent and we always have confidence that our little one will be safe and happy. He loves nursery and the staff and we always appreciate how well-informed we are throughout the day and when we do pick-ups.
Thank you so much for your kind words. This is very much appreciated by the Pear Tree Team.
I would not hesitate to recommend the nursery.
Thank you so much for your kind review. We appreciate your continued support.
Since starting at nursery in August 2024 we have felt nothing but support, care, and attention from Pear Tree, Church Street. It's hard leaving your baby with strangers for the first time but all the staff made it so easy for us and my child loves all the staff there. I completely trust them with my child and he has the best time there.
The team really appreciate your lovely words thank you.
Our son has been attending Church Street since he was 16 months old and I would recommend it to anyone. The staff are always friendly and genuinely care about the children. The facilities are amazing, the garden is large and secure and the children are allowed plenty of time to enjoy it. The app is great for getting updates as are the staff on pick-up times.
The team really appreciate your kind words, thank you.
