My children have been attending sunbeams since Sept 24 and have absolutely thrived in the environment. They love attending nursery and can't wait to talk about the activities they have done that day. I was apprehensive about sending my children to a nursery as I had only previously had experience with a childminder however it has been a really great experience for all so far.
I'm so glad to hear your children are thriving at Sunbeams! It's great that they're enjoying the activities and look forward to attending. Thanks for sharing your experience. Kind regards

My daughter started sunbeams in February 2024 after being unsettled at the childminders when she was only 10 months old and soon settled very quickly due to the amazing staff in the baby room. My daughter is now nearly 2 and is thriving. She was very shy and clingy at drop ops and thanks to the staff being so patient and understanding she now runs in so happy. We have had a few health issues with my daughter and the staff have done everything they can to make sure she is healthy and happy. Management are very approachable and understanding and put my mind at ease and plans in place to make sure she is getting the care she needs and keeps me updated throughout the day on the app. My daughters confidence has grown so much and as a family we are so happy knowing how well looked after our daughter is at nursery.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your daughter has settled in so well and is thriving with us. Our team is dedicated to providing the best care and support, and it's wonderful to see her confidence grow.

My daughter has been attending Sunbeams since September 2024 and I cannot praise the staff and establishment enough.

My son started attending Sunbeams in September after his last nursery closed. He was very clingy with me when I was dropping him off, the staff were always amazing, lots of patience, pleasant and different approaches to getting him in the room without him being too upset. He was always fine as soon as I left. Every pickup, staff are so informative as to what they have done during the day, food he has eaten, any accidents come through to the app straight away. It's such a lovely feeling knowing that you are leaving your child with amazing people. He really enjoys going. Activities at home, he always wants to take pictures so that we can show nursery. They recently had a festive "stay and play" I'd had a rubbish morning, and being there for an hour did wonders for my mental health. He was so happy that Mum was there playing with his friends and teachers. Absolutely lovely nursery, and brilliant staff.
We are happy to hear that we have created a welcoming, supportive environment for our little ones. It's wonderful that you're getting such great communication and updates throughout the day. Knowing exactly how he's doing must give you such peace of mind. We are so glad to hear that the festive...

Knowing exactly how he's doing must give you such peace of mind. We are so glad to hear that the festive "stay and play" was a positive experience for you too-it's amazing how those little moments can make such a big difference. Thank you for your review.
Sunbeams is an amazing nursery. the staff are lovely and will go above and beyond. Our child took a bit to settle in and they made sure he was comfortable every time, they give a good update at the end of the day too. Would 100% recommend.

Amazing nursery. My son has really come out of his shell since starting here in April and has formed strong bonds with his key workers. He is always looking forward to going into nursery and the staff are lovely.

My two children started at MiChild Sunbeams in October, I have a 4 year old and a 1 year old, the 4 year old settled straight away but the 1 year took a little bit of time and is still not fully settled, but the staff keep me informed as to how she is doing throughout the day and she has a nice...
My 4 year old has learnt so much and truly enjoys telling me about her day. You can see just how much she has learnt during her short time there. Even better, all the staff know her very well and love following her interests, you can see that the staff really enjoy looking after the children. The end of day handovers are always detailed plus everything is written on the app so I can look throughout the day how they have eaten, slept. Everyone is doing an amazing job and I'm so glad I chose MiChild Sunbeams :)

My son attended Sunbeams Nursery since September 2023 and I can say that he has improved a lot. This is the only nursery that he's found comfortable with in terms of staff and new people in general having been in another nursery previously. One staff, in particular, is very lovely and you can feel the caring attitude towards children. Aside from some staffing issues, Sunbeams Nursery has always been very good in general.
Thank you for your kind words. We are happy to hear your little one feels happy and comfortable at Sunbeams - The childcare sector has faced some challenging times recently that have impacted on staffing, we are pleased to say that we are through our hard times now with a consistent team and new management in place.
