Extremely supportive staff, child-focused, willing to work with parents and other professionals to ensure the child has all support required for their early learning and development journey. Specific, honest and regular feedback.
As a parent, I’m kept fully up to date with his day, using a private app. It’s very convenient and allows you to easily interact with the team.
I’m so pleased I made the decision to send him to Murrayfield. Their guidance and support throughout the last 4 years have been superb.
My wife and I feel it has been one of the best parenting decisions we made to send our children to Murrayfield Nursery. Over the 4-years, we have been with the nursery, the standard of care and support the staff provide has been exceptional. The nursery combines play and learning in such a way that engages the children and is led by children's interests. I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone considering sending their children to a private care setting.
Highly recommended!
Two of my children attend this nursery and both have settled rapidly and are enjoying a lot. I was worried at the beginning because my small child was just 16 weeks old when I first left him, but all the team helped me. My other child doesn’t have English as her first language and she has settled as well and is enjoying it.
We know kids are in good hands here. The staff are friendly and take good care of kids.
They provide spacious rooms, good food and engage kids in various activities suitable for their age.
Both my grandchildren attend this wonderful nursery and really enjoy their days there. My oldest grandson has made some great friends over the years as he moved from the baby room to big teds. My youngest grandson has just started the nursery and, despite being a lockdown baby, he has settled in well. The staff always have time for the children and cater to their individual needs. I would highly recommend this nursery and, in fact, it was recommended to me by a colleague and friend who sent his children there.
Being a first time mum and nervous of leaving my baby, especially with Covid-19, I can honestly say the team that I have had the pleasure of meeting are so professional and patient with my little one and me. I can't wait to see how my munchkin develops under the care of the Murrayfield Nursery team.
My daughter joined the nursery when she was seventeen months and now she is four years old nearly graduating from there. The nursery benefits from an Eco garden outdoors where my daughter enjoys watching the fish on their natural pool or trying to find any frogs or varies insects. The nursery staff encourages outdoor and messy play which we do not do much at home and this helped my daughter to widen her fantasy and vocabulary. Indoors, each age room covers the safety restrictions. Each room has designated areas like story time corner, free play corner and others which gives the ability for my daughter to develop her choice making skills. Staff are always welcome to new ideas and interested in the routine of each kid. We went through different trial periods, especially with my daughter of how long she should sleep in the nursery which made a big change on our lives. Last but not least getting updates through the app about my daughters daily routine is another plus for the nursery.
We have been looking for a nursery for our wee one for a long time. Until we moved in our new house and we just found Murrayfield Nursery might be a good one for our son. The manager helped book the play sessions and managed the settle week very well. The staff here are really helpful, friendly and responsible. The app is amazing and convenient for parents to know what the schedule for the kids is during the day. Our son has been settled very well and he started to enjoy his day at nursery. We will definitely send our second child here next year.
In the end, we only visited two nurseries before deciding to send our son to the Murrayfield Nursery. From our nursery visit through to four and a half years later, we have always felt a strong family vibe. All staff go the extra mile and we are greeted warmly at drop off and pick up. My son has been supported by all the staff in the nursery and it has been amazing to see him grow under the nurseries care. To summarise; we looked at two nurseries, found Murrayfield and have never doubted that decision.
Our son took a very long time to settle at nursery, we and he were supported through this process sensitively with lots of reassurance. His transitions from room to room have been well thought out and adapted to meet his needs each time.
The nursery staff's enthusiasm for encouraging learning and coming up with new learning experiences continues to impress us on a weekly basis. The daily updates and photos brighten up my day at work.
The variation and imagination used in providing the daily menus is amazing, as well as the real-life cooking experiences.
We don't want nursery to end but also feel confident that our son is going to be well prepared for school when the time comes.
I cannot speak more highly of Murrayfield Nursery. My son is there 5 days a week and he runs in each morning and is so excited to tell me about his day in the evening. I cannot ask for more than that! The daily updates via the Famly app with photos and information about what the children have been up to that day make such a difference and are so very welcome. The activities the kids get to participate in are wide-ranging and the child-led approach means the kids get a say in what projects they work on. The return to nursery post lockdown was smooth, helped by the fantastic outdoor space available at the nursery.
We are delighted that we picked the nursery for our son who is now almost 4 years old. We joined the nursery when our son was two following a move from Australia. The staff, especially his key worker, helped to make it a smooth transition and settled him in brilliantly. All the educators are wonderful, warm, kind and very knowledgeable. The management staff have always been extremely helpful and highly professional.
Highly recommended. Lovely and caring staff and extremely well-managed nursery. Each day is packed with loads of exciting activities. My 3-year-old comes home with a happy face and looks forward to going to nursery the next day again. As a parent, it feels so satisfying to see your child is having an excellent time even when she is away from you.
All of the staff and management are so supportive and engaging with the children. I find everyone really professional and friendly to deal with, you can tell how much they care about the children. I feel very confident that my child is in very safe hands (there has been a time when my child was very unwell but the way that they handled the situation was excellent).
The activities and structure every day are varied and keep my child very happy and entertained.
The on-site chef is a massive bonus, the varied menu is impressive. My child always eats double portions!
For prospective parents thinking about using the nursery, I think they would be very happy in using Murrayfield Nursery.
The program of on-site activities, day trips, and especially the chance to attend Forest School have given our children great opportunities to gain a good insight into life outside their home bubble. Throughout their time at nursery, the staff have proved time and again, just how highly professional and dedicated they are to their work, and this is reflected in the wonderful relationship they have built up with our children.
In addition to this, I’d also like to give recognition to the excellent support we, as parents, have received from them.
The staff at Murrayfield Nursery are extremely approachable, providing daily feedback on children’s progress and daily activities. Children are cared for and looked after to the highest of standards and any concerns are dealt with immediately. The meals and snacks on offer are nutritious and varied and staff encourage the children to try new flavours and new foods. I am so pleased with how the nursery has dealt with providing the best of care during this time of COVID restrictions and their communication with parents has been fantastic. I would highly recommend Murrayfield Nursery for all ages of children.
Great nursery, both our children have gone. Really caring environment and can’t praise their handling of COVID-19 more. When it came time for our eldest to graduate to school they offered great support in terms of helping us choose his next step. Out littlest is so happy too. The food is also a great bonus, and gives us an idea of what new things we can try.
It is a very good place for the child to be at, highly recommend for the child of any age (from 3 months up). Nice and friendly staff and management, food is great (according to my kids) and they enjoy every day there.
I would recommend Murrayfield Nursery to anyone looking for a high-quality nursery. The staff are all keen, interested in the children, and my little one comes home happy after a day there. They genuinely work on what the children are interested in, when my little one showed an interest in numbers they encouraged him and played games to develop his skills. I also like how well organised and thought through the nursery is, from the activities to mealtimes and keeping the children’s belongings tidy, the children are learning through the routines and rules of the nursery. They have excellent outdoor play areas, have a look at the Eco garden, it’s wonderful. The food is good and plentiful. Communication with parents is great, they use the Famly app, I get updates on what my little one has eaten, what he has been doing, and photos to illustrate.
