Review from M H (Mother of Child) published on 16 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both of my sons have attended this nursery over the last 9 years, and I honestly can't recommend it enough. The staff are fantastic and build great relationships with both the children and parents. Communication is always excellent, and I love getting daily updates, photos, and progress reports through the app.
The nursery puts so much effort into making things fun for the children, with lots of trips throughout the year and celebrations for all the special occasions like Easter, World Book Day, and Christmas. It's always clean, welcoming, and feels like a safe, happy environment for children to learn and grow.
My son has an allergy and they are always so careful about what he has and caters to his needs.

A wonderful nursery that has been a big part of our family's journey over the years.

Overall Experience

This is one of the best nurseries I have used. Staff are amazing and everything is tailored to each kids individual needs. Would not use any other nursery. The nursery offers opportunities to be both indoor and outdoor which for my kids is important as they don't like being cooped up indoors for long periods of time.

Review from C E (Mother of Child) published on 7 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has enjoyed every bit of her stay here and she comes home happy. She is a very active child and the nursery gives her enough activities to keep her busy. The staff are so wonderful and are quite flexible for working parents. If you are looking for a messy nursery that would allow your child paint, draw, dance, listen to music, engage in outdoor activities etc then this is the right one for you.

Review from N P (Mother of Child) published on 5 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending nursery here for almost 4 years and has enjoyed every minute. The nursery is small which gives off a warm inviting environment. Due to it being a small nursery all the children are very close and have built good friendships & the parents of the children have also bonded through trips and nursery events. My son has had some additional needs during his time at nursery which was been managed well from the manager, the different keyworkers he has had, along with other staff at the nursery. He will be leaving to attend school this year and will leave with lots of fun memories and friendships he has built during his time at the nursery.

Overall Experience

My two children look forward to going to nursery as they always have plenty of fun. The continuity of staff is very good compared to other nurseries, and although they only have a relatively small garden, they make up for it by taking them out to halls, parks, libraries, on walks and to a local green space every week. I would highly recommend the nursery to any parent, the quality of care is exceptional.

Overall Experience

My son, who is under teams for having difficulties, attends the nursery and they have been great and brought him on in many ways as well as keeping me informed along the way of any changes to his development. Also, at the start of the year, we experienced a family emergency with my newborn and the nursery couldn’t have been there enough to support us the whole way, not only checking on the baby and ourselves but supported and giving more one-to-one with my child who attends. It’s a fantastic nursery.

Overall Experience

We are very proud of the progress our daughter is making on a daily basis. From a very shy person to a confident individual doing really well on socialising, great progress in writing and numbers. She always plays with her dolls and babies pretending to be one of the ladies. It's a pleasure to see her becoming a confident and happy girl due to the hard work and dedication of the staff.

Overall Experience

Amazing nursery with the most amazing teachers. My daughter has been there since she was a baby and they have been amazing with her. I was recommended Childrens Hour Nursery by a friend and putting my daughter in there was the best decision I made. My daughter leaves in August for school and to say we are going to miss everyone is an understatement.

Overall Experience

Both of my children attend this nursery and have done just before they were one year old and I’ve never had any complications or complaints throughout the last 4 years. All of the members of staff are very helpful and are very confident within their role. All staff are approachable with sensitive information and they provide great learning experiences, nurture and care for the children within their care. I’d highly recommend.

Overall Experience

My son has been at this nursery for 4 and a half years and is now getting ready to leave for school, they have been amazing at helping his development and caring for him over the years. He has come on leaps and bounds and I couldn’t be more grateful for everything the staff have done. They are great at keeping us updated with what he has been doing and how he is getting on and we really feel that it wasn’t just a nursery but more like a family.
