The nursery staff have been great with both of my children in the 4 months they've been there. My son especially is learning and developing brilliantly and both kids are learning and doing new things every day.

When I drop my daughter at nursery, I feel safe that she is in good hands and being cared for by genuine staff who always show an interest in her. My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was 8 months old and is nearly 3 years old now. She is coming on greatly in all areas of her development and contributes part of this to how the staff at the nursery treat her.
I would definitely recommend this nursery and already have on several occasions.

Oranges and Lemons have looked after my children for a combined total of the last 8 years. They have helped wean, potty train, take first steps, learn to read and write and most importantly make new friends. The staff are, without exception, incredibly friendly and helpful. The food is healthy and nutritious. The play areas are varied and interesting. It has been the perfect environment for my children to grow into school kids.

This nursery has been the best for my daughter. They have helped her overcome her anxiety issues and have made the drop-offs a pleasure rather than the very upset child we used to have.
They have gone above and beyond researching our daughter's health condition and have even taken the time to sit down with a specialist to understand the condition better. The management team are fantastic and nothing is ever a problem for them. They are quick to resolve any issues or worries we may have and we are fully reassured when we return to collect our child.

A very friendly nursery, staff are engaging and helpful. Management are excellent, great communication with parents and the nursery is of a very high standard with lots of outdoor space. Nursery is always being improved and parental engagement is actively encouraged from new equipment to growing things in the garden and most recently, the visits from the theraponies. Lots of exciting opportunities for children to be creative and explore new things.

An amazing nursery for both my kids, they both love coming and see it as a second home. They have both come on so much at the nursery with staff supporting them not only with their learning through play but also with anxiety issues. The nursery is also spotless and the food provided is amazing!
The kids love spending time in the garden and the “mud patch”. They also love the theraponies visits!
All the staff and management are fantastic in supporting the kids and parents alike.
I have previously recommended the nursery to others and would not hesitate in doing so again.

My son has been at the nursery since he was 11 months old. Since day one, we have had no issues whatsoever as he was made to feel welcome from the start. The nursery have played a major part in furthering his development through the group activities and one to one time he has with the staff. My son loves to be outdoors and the fact that he has so much space and activities to partake in outside is fantastic. Each day is a different adventure for him and he absolutely loves the bi-weekly visit from Bella and Rosie the ponies.
It is also very good to see the nursery investing money to ensure they have the best possible facilities on site. All staff are very attentive and we know that we are able to speak directly to either the manager or another staff member should we have any need to.

Fantastic nursery. Cannot praise the staff highly enough, they all make a huge effort to learn all the kid’s names (even staff not directly involved with my daughter) and greet them individually on entering the building. Have found all staff extremely accommodating and easy to speak to. Detailed reports at the end of each day.
Fantastic menu on offer. Play and learning facilities great - especially the outdoor access and more recently the therapony visits have gone down a storm. Five stars.

My 9-month-old daughter started at Oranges and Lemons Technology Park early April and absolutely loves it! All staff, from the nursery manager to the early years practitioners and even the chef, have been excellent in making sure that she feels comfortable, happy, and loved. The baby room is a brilliant space with lots of areas to explore. I love that there's a dedicated outside space for this age group so they can enjoy the fresh air and get involved in outdoor activities suitable to their age and ability. At the end of every day, I get a mini written report telling me everything from nap times and nappy changes to what she's eaten and how much. This doesn't stop the room leader from taking time out and talking me through it, adding in as much as possible so I don't feel like I've missed out.
A wonderful place for little ones, run by thorough, kind and genuine people. Highly recommended!

Daughter loves going to nursery. She enjoys a variety of activities and learning environments indoors and outside. She has lots of stories from her day and is especially proud of her writing skills and ability to spell her name. She is encouraged to be independent but has group time which mix up pairs to foster bonds with other children out with her normal ‘best friends’.
Staff will give a summary of the day but also encourage my child to explain what she got up to. The staff seem to have a good relationship with the children and my daughter is fond of several staff members.

Very happy with the level of care provided for both of my children. They both love coming to nursery. The nursery always seems clean. Things are well organised. Both of my children have enjoyed trips to the local park, library, shopping. Recently the visits from Theraponies has been very popular. Staff have successfully worked hard to help my son over issues such as separation anxiety and food issues. Now he loves and eats nearly everything on the menu which is also having a positive impact at home. I find all staff approachable and caring. The outside space available to the children is excellent and they are encouraged to be outside daily. I am very happy that I chose this nursery for my children.
