My child has developed lots over the last few weeks at nursery. He is very happy at nursery and looks forward to going in. He is always happy to see the staff and his friends. His speech and knowledge have really come on.

My daughter joined at the beginning of the month and she absolutely loves it. She asks at home if she can go to nursery every day. Highly recommend.

Review from amy h (Mother of Child) published on 29 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been at this nursery since November 2021, she has always enjoyed going to the nursey. They have excellent facilities, allowing her to explore different areas and try new activities every day. She has developed a wide range of skills and abilities through the learning that has taken place.
The staff at the nursery are always very friendly and have built a great relationship with my daughter, even the staff she doesn't see day to day in pre-school stop to say good morning and ask how she is doing. It is a very caring environment and children are encouraged to explore new activities and food choices.

Overall a great nursery setting.

Overall Experience

Both of my girls have always been really happy to go to nursery and come out with smiles on their faces. The staff always seem to genuinely care about the children. Some staff members clearly go out of their way to create fun for the children and engage with the parents/guardians.

Review from A H (Father of Child) published on 22 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Mostly very good but more detail about progression and development would be valuable face-to-face. The menu needs to be a little more varied as well. The staff are always friendly, happy and very helpful. We are very pleased with the outdoor time that my child has on walks and in the garden and all the activities that are provided. Lots of variety and marking the seasons and special times of year.

I am happy with how things are managed at the nursery. The staff are great and responsive to parents' requests. So far we have not had any problems. The facilities are very good and kids are exposed to many different kinds of toys and activities.

Lovely nursery. All welcoming. Seems very safe and child friendly. Baby room staff are so nurturing. Wouldn't have gone anywhere else. I know my child is safe, looked after and loved there. Puts me at ease knowing he's going to have a great day too.

Amazing nursery, lots of activities for my child to do. Also, all meals and sleep times are recorded plus the moments in time feature is a great idea for parents. Really nice place, couldn't praise the staff enough for how much they do for my son. Thank you.

Overall Experience

My son currently goes to this nursery and has done since being a baby, he's currently going to school in September and I know he's going to miss going to nursery, he absolutely loves nursery and all the people that work there! Everyone is absolutely amazing from comforting my child all the way to communicating with me. He learns so much and, the best part is, he has also has heaps of fun! I love how they give you updates throughout the day and if you have any problems they are more than happy to help! I would 1000% recommend this nursery to anyone.

Review from R S (Mother of Child) published on 16 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
So, my little one has fantastic teachers. They are brilliant and the only reason my little one still attends. Be aware when looking around, they may not be in preschool but pavilion, which I was unaware of, and not happy about due to 8 coming in settling then being unsettled again to move over to pavilion, but I have managed to start at 9, fortunately, to minimise the impact on my child.
I personally feel there have been a lot of changes over the last 18 months with different people taking over implementing their way of doing things then changing owners again then doing it another way. There is just no consistency in any information!
And a lack of basic things, which again is probably from so many changes!
Basic information like what they will be learning this term, how much sessions cost so on is being missed or they don't know. The communication is just not there.

From the nursery, compared to what I have seen from other nurseries that other family members attend and how it was before.

Great nursery, the girls in my daughter's room make her days so fun which means a lot to me as I work full time so it's lovely to see her enjoying herself! My child has great bonds with members of staff and they have helped amazingly with her toilet training.

My son has been at this nursery since he was 7 months old. The staff are brilliant - extremely helpful and understanding taking excellent care of my son.

He does a range of wonderful things that enhance his learning and development. He loves being at nursery and can't wait to tell me what he has done that day.

Review from Sam L (Father of Child) published on 15 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Really happy with the nursery as a whole, the staff are all really good and my daughter really feels comfortable around them. The transition from one class to another was smooth because they gave the children time in their new room before the move so they knew what to expect. I like how the staff show you new setups they've made and show pride in their work. The manager is lovely and very approachable. The only criticism I'd make is that sometimes the photos that are uploaded are a bit blurry. Overall very happy with the nursery, things like French and mini movers are the highlight of my girl's week!

Overall Experience

My boys loved their week in the holiday club. The staff that I did speak to were polite, lovely and very professional. If any incidents had occurred that day we were always informed when I collected them. My boys are very fussy when it comes to leaving in holiday clubs but both of them told us that they would be happy to go there again.

I can't fault this wonderful nursery. My daughter is due to finish this coming week and is starting primary school! She has throughout enjoyed her time there and as her mum, I can't be grateful enough! The staff are all excellent, so helpful, friendly and welcoming!

The learning lodge itself is decorated beautifully. Very cosy and warm! Would highly recommend them to any parents looking to seek childcare!
