This facility has provided a great stepping stone to education for our 2-year-old. From the time she arrives, everything is a joyous occasion and delivers an excellent service. It's like home from home due to the amazing staff.

We find the manager and staff, professional yet with a human touch. Our daughter settled in quickly when she started last year and she smiles and laughs when we arrive at the nursery. We know she loves it here. The daily journal is filled promptly and the food/menu is varied and balanced. The play area is gorgeous and our older daughter did a couple of days here during the school holidays at their holiday club and she enjoyed it.

Don't let the fact it's on a main road put you off there's parking round the back and that's how your child enters too so there not near any busy traffic
This is an excellent environment for children to learn, play and grow.

This is an excellent environment for children to learn, play and grow.
I have had one child go through every room, starting as a baby and now at school with my second child starting that journey now.
The staff & management are hard working, the structure that Children's First put into the day is very good, the environment is secure and the facilities have recently gone from adequate to world class as a result of the recent refurbishment (90% completed at the time of writing, just the garden to finish).
Additionally, they have managed to be flexible enough for us to chop and change nursery/pre-school days as shifts and working patterns change which is essential to us.
I have custody of my grandsons, the youngest has been at Children 1st nursery for nearly two years now, I can honestly say I've never had any problems at all. The staff are all fantastic and the building is going to be amazing once all the work has been completed!

We like this nursery. They have very friendly, kind, professional and helpful staff and my child feels loved and safe there. It's also important for us as a family.

The care given by the wonderful staff and management team along with the encouragement to learn and discover, has been second to none.
We are very happy and as parents, we are always at ease when our daughter attends her nursery.
Nothing is too much trouble for the staff, whether it be calling up to check that she is alright to changing hours around and sorting queries, to having chats with the dedicated staff about all kinds of things.
Importantly we know our daughter is cared for.
The refurbishment looks absolutely fantastic. The staff have done a wonderful job coordinating this project ensuring minimum distribution to the children.
My child has loved his time at Children 1st @ Monks Road so far. When he first started going, it was the first time he’d been away from home without a family member so I was extremely nervous (more so than him!) but the staff at Children 1st @ Monks Road made me feel confident that he would have a...
He has grown in confidence and plays with other children so nicely now. I am extremely happy with the service we receive and I love the nursery and all of the ladies that work there.

There is a great communication between the nursery and parents and if ever a problem occurred I know it would be well dealt with.
They are undergoing a revamp and the nursery is going to look incredible once it’s done, which will allow much more space for the children, as well as bigger room for them to improve and develop.
Lovely staff, my daughter loves it, looks so much better now they are doing the nursery up. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

My daughter has been attending this nursery since April 2016. When coming to view this nursery, staff made us feel very welcome. They were happy for my daughter to go and explore the room. They took their time to show us around in detail and would answer any questions that I had. I knew this...
Every day I go to collect her, I get a hand over of how her day has been. I also like the online eylog as it's nice to see her progress and next steps.
My daughter also enjoys the activities we get in the home task book. My daughter is happy and her confidence has grown lots since attending this nursery and this is down to all the members of staff. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.
I found the nursery and the staff very impressive with the learning and development of my child. The setting, the staff are very good with both myself and child being our first experience. My child has settled very well which is a relief for me. They provide a daily update on what my child has...

What a fantastic nursery! My daughter has been attending for nearly a year now. The staff are so welcoming and the environment is always set up to appeal to the children! Parents are kept up to date regularly about child's progress and the great online assessment system allows wow moments to be shared from the nursery as well as at home. The confidence and progress my daughter has made since attending are very clear to see and it makes me proud to share with others which nursery she attends. I couldn't recommend this nursery enough!!

Hello, I’m Louisa, the Nursery Manager at Rosemary Lane. I’ve worked in Early Years for over 20 years, and my journey began as a newly qualified practitioner after completing my training at Lincoln College. Since then, I’ve had the privilege of developing my career within Children 1st, and for more than a decade now, I’ve proudly led the wonderful team here at Rosemary Lane.
One of the things I love most about our nursery is the sense of community we’ve created and our fantastic outdoor space — a real hidden gem for an inner-city setting. It’s a joy to welcome new families, showing them around and sharing the exciting experiences we offer the children every day.
I’m incredibly proud of my team; they’re passionate, nurturing, and committed to providing a safe, stimulating environment where children can thrive. I’d be delighted to show you around our nursery and talk about how we can support your child on their early years journey.
