Overall Experience

I am extremely happy with this nursery.The environment is caring, friendly, and very well organized. My son comes home every day clean, cheerful, and excited to share what he learned. The teachers are attentive and truly dedicated to the children's well-being. I can see how much he has grown and how confident he has become since joining. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a safe and loving place for their child.

Review from H M (Mother of Child) published on 4 August 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The staff at Foxcubs have always been professional but so down-to-earth and caring. They've been so warm and welcoming, and the inside of the nursery is clean, well-kept and very accessible for children - even the toilets! My son has had such a lovely time and gushes about his experiences. The use of the app for communication is very efficient and it's been wonderful to be kept updated with pictures and observations throughout the year. 100% recommend!

Review from Anna R (Mother of Child) published on 4 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Foxcubs is an excellent nursery with a variety of playing and learning activities and caring staff. The manager is brilliant, she has organised so many interesting events for kids like animal farm visits, and different parties, they have a beautiful garden for the children where they grow their own flowers and vegetables and children can help and learn about nature. My son loves the nursery's staff. He was looking forward to going there in the morning to go there, which is to develop his social and emotional skills. If I have to choose the nursery again, I will definitely choose Foxcubs as it is a wonderful nursery for the kids to be and develop.

Overall Experience

I’m very happy with this nursery for my child such as the quality of care, safety measures, educational activities, and staff professionalism. I can see the huge difference in her physical development, cognitive development and social and emotional development. She’s a very confident little girl since she started the nursery. Her language development and communication skills are getting better too.

I would wholeheartedly recommend this nursery. From day one, they supported and gave good guidance to the kids and parents. Very helpful staff members and they take care of our child. Very transparent too. Throughout the application, not only can we see the status of our child but also see photos of the activity.
