My eldest daughter attended until 2017 and enjoyed it, so when looking for somewhere for my baby in September, it was the obvious choice. I wasn't disappointed; they all remembered my older daughter and made a real fuss of her. My younger daughter now loves it there, and they are really helping her to explore lots of new things, especially with her food, as she was really fussy. Would highly recommend.
I have 2 children at Storytime Nursery, and they both absolutely love it. The staff are great and do lots of different activities with the children. The whole nursery has a nice, relaxed environment. I would recommend it to anyone.
Both of my daughters have attended for the past 2-3 years and absolutely love every minute of their time here. I feel confident and reassured that they are being left in safe hands. The staff and management are all very professional, but also very friendly, and nothing is ever too much trouble. They really do go above and beyond. Everything is so much fun, and they provide such a happy learning environment. Each family’s/child’s individual needs are catered for, and my daughters have thrived here. Thank you, Storytime!
Our son has been at Storytime from only a couple of months old. Storytime is his extended family, and that's very much how we view the team there. Our little boy has gone through all the various rooms as he gets older, making friends with the staff in each room, as we have. It's such a special place for us and our little boy; it will be a sad day when he has to go to "big school", but we know he will be well prepared for it through the hard-working staff here.
Friendly, helpful staff who put the safety and welfare of all the children in their care as the number one priority. My grandson loves going and has made friends with both children and staff members. Great communication on pick up. Nothing is too much trouble.
I always feel made to be made very welcome. My grandson always comes out very happy. They know each child that comes through the door. They always fill you in with what he's been up to and what he's eaten, any questions you have, are always answered.
All the staff are very professional and understanding. So very welcoming, always have smiles on their faces. I am very happy that I chose Storytime for my little girl, and I know she's going to keep excelling while at Storytime until she starts big school.
My family had their children in this nursery; they loved it! They recommended I bring my daughter, so I did. I'm glad I did; she loves going in the morning and full of smiles coming out. Love the staff; they are amazing with the children, welcoming them all in. I defo recommend this nursery to anyone.
We were particularly drawn to the nursery’s ‘home away from home’ approach. We had some very specific requirements for our son’s food, and they went out of their way to accommodate us. Our little man joined Storytime at 10-months-old and has developed so much. We have been really grateful to the nursery for offering so many social skills to our son, as he has essentially been a lockdown baby for most of his life! We are always kept in the loop and know that the staff are always thinking of ways to be even better all the time.
My daughter absolutely loves going to this nursery, which has always been the case since the day she started. She's always keen to tell me about what she has learnt that day and how much fun she has had. All staff are very helpful, caring and friendly, which makes working full time so much easier knowing my little girl is having a lovely day.
Brilliant nursery. My son has come on leaps and bounds since starting at Storytime. The staff are friendly, approachable and professional. We looked at numerous nurseries in the area, and we know that we made the right choice!
This nursery is fab; they are amazing with all the children. Both my boys have been, and they loved every minute. I would definitely recommend this nursery to friends and family; the staff are brilliant.
This nursery is brilliant. My son enjoys every minute he's there. The staff are amazing and very professional. We will be sad when he moves up to big school in September. Storytime is a family, not just a nursery!
My 2-year-old son currently attends Storytime, and he absolutely loves it. I feel confident to leave him knowing he’s having a ball and all his needs are met and more. He goes in and comes out really happy and excited and is always talking about the staff and his friends. I wouldn’t send my son anywhere else, Storytime really put the children first, and nothing is too much trouble.
Lovely staff, wonderful management and fabulous nursery. Wouldn’t take my daughter elsewhere.
All my daughters have been/going to storytime nursery. It is such a welcoming, fun and friendly nursery. The children and are all well looked after, and all their needs are met here. My daughter is such a shy little girl, and they have helped her to overcome that, and she has come out of her shell. All the girls are amazing at their jobs, and I 100% trust them to take care of my little girl. My daughter loves it, and so do I. All the staff are lovely; they have excellent food choices, and it is clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend this nursery; it’s the best around.
Would recommend Storytime to anyone looking for a nursery. Staff are great and make the process of leaving your little one in someone else’s care a lot easier!
Storytime nursery is amazing! My little sister went here, and I was recommended by family members. Mlittle boy has been attending since January! He has come on so much; he’s so clever, and he skips into nursery every day so happy! It’s nice to know he’s in the best hands when I’m at work all day! Thank you.
My son absolutely loves going to Storytime Nursery, was reluctant at first as expected, but is now so excited when we go. Also assisted with my son's development programme and liaised with our physio... amazing work. Credit to all staff at The Nursery, thank you so much
My little boy attends Storytime nursery, and he loves coming here. He loves all of the girls in his room, and he is really happy and asks me when is it nursery day so he can see his friends, such a warm, loving environment; we look at it as an extension of our family and my sons home from home.
