It's hard to put into words how grateful we are for everything Doune Terrace has given our family. Both of our daughters went to Doune Terrace and from the very beginning we have felt completely confident that they were in the most caring, nurturing and supportive environment. Our girls have grown so much during their time here not only in confidence and learning but also in kindness, independence and friendships! As we prepare to move abroad sharing goodbye is incredibly bittersweet. Thank you for everything you have done for our family we will miss you all so much and couldn't have wished for a better start for our girls. Chloe and Craig x

We've seen such a huge boost in our child's confidence, independence, and social skills since attending. The communication with parents is fantastic, and we always feel involved and informed about our child's progress. Its been excellent.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear how happy your son is at Doune Terrace and how much he enjoys the activities, outdoor adventures and trips. Your kind words mean a great deal to our team.

My daughter has been at Doune Terrace since she was 18 months old and has always been happy to attend. Throughout her time there, she has enjoyed the wide range of activities provided, such as Forest School, trip to North Berwick, yoga and music classes, attending Fringe shows, museum visits, and many more. We feel the nursery has given our daughter the best possible start to her early years, and we are very grateful to the staff who work tirelessly to keep the nursery running so smoothly.

The nursery has provided a friendly, safe and encouraging environment for both of our children to prosper in. The staff are generally at the nursery for the long term and have established close bonds with our children which helps as they transition from one stage to another and has also given us peace of mind that our children are surrounded by familiar and caring faces. We have noticed good and steady progress with their learning and they made sure our eldest child was prepared and confident for leaving nursery to start school. Our children really enjoy the food and its a great help dinner is provided towards the end of the nursery day.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. We're so pleased your children feel happy, supported and confident here, and it means a lot to our team to know their progress and routines are positively reflected at home.
We have been here since my son was 1 years old. Lovely caring staff who have a great relationship with my son and know his quirks. He settled in very quickly and is happy here. Good choice of activities and healthy varied meals.

Doune Terrace is a wonderful nursery with caring staff, a creative curriculum, good processes, and lots of love. Our son joined as a baby and is now a thriving toddler. The team have really supported him throughout transitions and are always looking for new, educational and fun ways to engage the children in their care. The garden is quite small but the children are often taken out to nearby parks.
Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear how well your son has grown and thrived since joining us as a baby. Our team works hard to provide a caring and consistent environment, so it means a great deal to know this has supported him through each...

Very pleased with our son's time here! The care is very genuine and the commitment to the kids clear. Staffing sometimes seems stretched a bit thin but we love the emphasis on crafting, out door play, local trips and appreciate how staff have handled any situations that have arisen.

We are so happy with this nursery and the care our children receive. The staff are truly exceptional-kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child's wellbeing. They take the time to understand individual needs and always make our children feel safe, supported, and valued, which gives us great peace of mind.
The space is bright, welcoming, and well organised, creating a fantastic environment for both learning and play. We particularly love the outdoor trips, which give the children wonderful opportunities to explore and experience new things.
The menu is healthy and varied, and it's reassuring to know the children are eating nutritious meals each day. The range of activities is also brilliant-swimming, football, and yoga are real highlights and help build confidence and skills.
Our preschool child has come on so much since starting here. It's amazing to see how much they are learning and developing every day.
