My daughter absolutely loves Banana Moon! All the ladies are so kind, friendly and always greet my daughter with a smile. I have never had any problems sending her and she is full of chatter when picked up about all the things she has done during the day. The team have really helped her to settle in and make friends and also get her ready to start school next year. I feel much more confident that she will do really well when she leaves for reception. Banana Moon ladies, you will be sorely missed next September by us both! Cannot recommend this lovely nursery enough to people!
Many thanks for your lovely comments... it's great to get positive feedback and know that we are meeting our parents' expectations.
Such an awesome nursery, highly recommend it to anyone.
My kids are my treasure and I feel so at ease leaving them with the Banana Moon staff. They help my little stars shine even brighter.
What lovely comments... thank you so much for your feedback. It's been a real pleasure caring for your children.
The staff are always very approachable and genuinely know my little boy so well. They provide lots of fun activities and amazing meal choices. Put simply, Banana Moon takes away some of the guilt of having to be a working mummy, knowing that he is receiving care that is second to none! Thank you!
We really do care about all of the children in our care and it's wonderful to know this is recognised by parents, thank you for your comments.
My little boy loves his time at nursery and is very happy when he goes! He has bonded with all the staff and they are all lovely and very welcoming.
I love this nursery my daughter was originally at another nursery between 6 months and 2 years and I am delighted at how much better Banana Moon is. The staff are friendly and love the children, they are always being creative and learning, making cakes and have lovely hot dinners. They encourage teeth brushing and toilet training and I love the fact they can play outside in the garden and go for walks to the local park. Oh, and the communications and billing is really good too. My daughter loves it and has settled in well would never change nursery again and dread the day she leaves for big school. 100% recommended.
Thank you for your lovely feedback Michelle, we are very pleased to hear all of your positive points!
Throughout my child’s time at this nursery, she has formed close bonds with all staff that she has come into contact with. All staff make a great deal of effort to get to know your child and each have been caring and supportive.
As well as learning many literacy and nuemeracy skills, the nursery also explores interesting and exciting topics! She has also been taken out many times around the local area. There is always lots of lovely work coming home; you can see that lots of thought and planning has gone into this by staff. Communication with parents is outstanding. All members of staff will make time to speak to you and quickly respond to any queries; there are also parents evenings, newsletters, Facebook updates and parent-invited stay and play sessions.
Personally, I feel this setting has given my child a great head start for primary school and I couldn’t be any happier with her progress.

He was always very happy there.
Most recently he attended the holiday club and again he had a great time.
I would certainly recommend anyone to try this setting.
My daughter has learned a great deal and can write her name, knows all of her letters and can count to a high number, all before she starts school.
Her social skills have improved and she has a good group of friends.
I would recommend Banana Moon to any parent.
Thanks for your lovely comments...... It's great to have such parental support.
My daughter really enjoys nursery, she has come on so much in such little time. She sings the nursery songs all the time at home. And always seems really happen when I pick her up.
Thanks so much for your lovely comments.
Absolutely brilliant nursery. The staff are lovely and my son loves going. Couldn't fault the nursery in any way! They provide 7.30am starts which help a lot for working parents. All food is healthy (and tasty) and home made and good quality meals.
As a team, we work hard to provide a loving and homely environment so your comments mean a lot to us.
Thanks again.
She goes in now without even looking back at me and really looks forward to attending.
The staff are lovely and the food is excellent.
Thank you so much.
Thanks for your kind comments. So glad that your daughter settled in well and has built some strong relationships with the team .... we work hard on the recruitment of the right people and it's great when parents recognise them. Thanks again!
my daughter started at Banana Moon in September 2016 aged 9 months. She settled in so well and quickly, and I feel the nursery has really helped her. Her speech has come along leaps and bounds and she now loves going and waves me goodbye when I drop her off. She eats good healthy meals which she loves and has made little friends there that she enjoys seeing every day. The staff are all lovely and always acknowledge her by name every morning which I love that they all know who she is. Very clean and well kept, all the children are friendly and welcoming- a reflection on the nursery. My daughter always brings home paintings she has made, which is lovely too and is often outside playing with other children which she loves. I would 100% recommend this nursery to any parents, I feel at ease dropping my daughter off here, and believe she is very well cared for. Brilliant nursery and will keep her there until school age. Would take any other children I may have to this nursery too. Love it!
So pleased that you are happy with the care provided. Thanks for your lovely comments.
My daughter loves it here and loves her keyworker too! She does loads whilst there and all the staff are really friendly.
Banana Moon offers excellent childcare within a cosy setting. Our son has attended since he was 11 months old and has flourished. Our son's knowledge amazed us and we attribute this to the learning at Banana Moon. The staff are excellent and they forge great relationships with the children.
My daughter has been going here for over 2 years now and she loves it! We've always been really happy with the nursery, they go out of their way to make sure the children are happy and settled and I would definitely recommend. The staff are great and they really seem to care about the children.
Thanks for your comments.... we have really enjoyed having your daughter and it's great to know that you are happy with her care .
Our son joined Banana Moon last year and since then he has grown in confidence, learning to become more independent and now has moved to pre school where he is learning even more.
We are very pleased with the care our son receives and would definitely recommend the nursery to anyone.
The staff are always approachable, very supportive and we are looking forward to our first parents evening very soon.
Thanks a lot for such lovely comments ... its great to know you are comfortable recommending us to friends. There is no higher compliment ...
My daughter loves to attend Banana Moon nursery in Baddesley Ensor. It is a lovely setting, the facilities are good and all of the staff are great. The home cooked meals are always popular with the children. My daughter is due to leave in August, ready for starting school in September and I will definitely be sending my son there when my maternity leave finishes.
Pleased to hear how happy you are with Banana Moon Baddesley Ensor. Thank you for taking time to review them, especially the food!!! Hope your daughter settles well into school and the team look forward to caring for your little boy in the near future!
My daughter has absolutely thrived at Banana Moon. She really enjoys going and has a fantastic relationship with her key worker. As a parent you are kept fully informed about what your child has done each day and you have the opportunity to speak to your child's key worker at a parents evening to discuss their development.
Its always great to hear about good relationships between children and their key workers .... so pleased your daughter is happy with us.
They offer a range of indoor and outdoor activities, and offer lots of support for parent and child.
They do loads of events and stay and play so you can be part of there nursery life and ensure good standard of behaviour.
Thanks Natalie for your feedback! The team at Baddesley Ensor will love hearing the feedback so thank you for taking the time to review.
My daughter is also due to start in the baby room by November this year.
Whenever possible the staff take the children to the local park or even garden centre on the bus service. My son loves his days out.
Thank you for your review Marie. Thank you for the feedback on the staff team. I will ensure that this gets passed on :)
