Review from D M (Mother of Child) published on 17 March 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We are very happy with the pre school service provided for our daughter. The staff are wonderful and genuinely care for the kids. The feedback we get from the staff working there is helpful for what development stage she is at which helps us to carry on similar things at home. They are all extremely supportive and welcoming

This is a fantastic pre-school and my daughter loves going in each day. The staff are friendly and helpful and provide brilliant activities for the children to take part in. My daughter's confidence has grown so much since she started attending, and I would recommend this preschool to any parent.

Overall Experience

The pre-school is just fabulous, there are so many varied learning opportunities in a stimulating, warm and friendly environment. All of the staff go above and beyond to ensure the children are happy throughout the day. My son loves attending and can’t wait to show me all of the wonderful things he has done at the end of the day!

Overall Experience

My daughter will be leaving in July and it hurts my heart to think that will no longer be dropping a child off at this wonderful place! The staff are fabulous, the range of activities available to the children are varied and engaging and my daughter loves coming. I cannot rate the team highly enough.

Fabulous staff at the preschool my daughter always enjoys her time there. Their meals are good home-cooked healthy meals. There are always activities set up in the garden and indoors. The staff are always happy and welcoming.

An amazing place where all staff take time to get to know your child well. Staff always work hard to support your child as an individual. Complete trust in what they are doing. They love they convey for your child is sincere, a brilliant culture created by the owners and managers.

We’re very happy with The Secret Garden. Our daughter started in nursery and throughout the staff have been caring and supportive. They are interested in her and it’s lovely to see the activities she does and what she brings home. They are well organised and we like the feedback we get.

Review from B J (Father of Child) published on 21 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending this nursery since she was about 2 years old. She is now in the preschool room and is loving every second of it. They offer a wide variety of activities throughout the day that are based on the interests of the children (French and Forest Schools are a firm favourite with my little girl who loves to explore). The staff are amazing and you can tell they genuinely care about your child, they can always put a smile on my daughter's face when she is having a bad day.

Review from Bayleigh G (Mother of Child) published on 14 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has just transitioned from the nursery to the preschool. He loves the extra freedom of preschool but still has the security of caring practitioners whom are so kind and nurturing, I feel at ease dropping him off knowing he is well looked after and I really enjoy the daily summary where pictures and a run through of the day are posted into the famly app.

My little boy loves going to the secret garden pre-school, the staff are amazing and so welcoming putting my mind at rest instantly, he has been there for 5 months now and I couldn’t have found a more nurturing environment for him to be ready for school in September.

Review from S K (Mother of Child) published on 13 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our child has recently transferred from the toddler room to the pre-school. The transition was well planned by both teams and he has settled in well. The team at pre-school are open, welcoming and communicative, and the transition has been smooth one. I love the space and facilities in pre-school, lots of freedom for the children to move around and choose their activities. I also like the independence they promote around meal times.

Overall Experience

My daughter absolutely loves her preschool. All of the staff are extremely kind and caring and they have become part of my LG’s family. They genuinely really care about the children’s learning and happiness and are always thinking up new activities for them to do. They allow your child to develop without restricting them. A great start to any little life and would highly recommend.

Review from E L (Mother of Child) published on 9 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Lovely caring nursery that spends plenty of time outdoors. Added activities are French lessons, tennis and forest school. My child loves it there. He has been to other nurseries but he is clearly happiest and most settled here. It's nice that the nursery setting isn't too large either and it has a family feel which you don't get with big corporate nurseries. I would highly recommend it.

Amazing preschool with fabulous staff, all so caring and enthusiastic. My little girl loves it here. She has been attending since she was a baby and now she is in the preschool and continues to love it. The variety of activities is great and I know she is cared for and looked after.

Review from A Y (Mother of Child) published on 7 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This is a fantastic pre-school that both of our children have attended. One has now moved on to school and has many happy memories of this pre-school, whilst our younger son still attends and looks forward to going - when we tell him it's a pre-school day he usually has a big grin on his face! The staff are lovely and welcoming and it's clear that they care about the children. Every day there are different activities laid out for the kids to explore. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this pre-school.
