Banana Moon Day Nursery St Albans

We are extremely pleased with Banana Moon, St. Albans as a childcare facility for our two year old boy. The nurturing environment has ensured his developmental and emotional needs are met. He has recently successfully transitioned from the baby room to the over two's. My son is very comfortable in his new surroundings.

Activities are varied within the children's age appropriate rooms and the nursery benefits from a well utilised outdoor space, indoor/outdoor room encouraging the children to be active whatever the weather.

Children are provided with two snacks and two hot, nutritious meals that are varied. These are revised frequently and ensure children the are getting their 5 a day.

Feedback and interaction with staff is at an appropriate level, with daily diaries being discussed on collection, development folders available for us to take home and discussed as parent teacher evenings. I feel that I can access staff when ever I need to if anything arises outside of these times.

Would highly recommend Banana Moon to all!

Fantastic nursery. My son loved it here, he's now at school but my daughter still attends. It's bright and spacious for the children and the garden space is great too. The staff are lovely. They are always smiling and having fun with the children as well as teaching them.

I would without hesitation recommend Banana Moon in St Albans to anyone with children looking for daycare. My son has been going for 4 months and adores his time there. The nursery engages him in all sorts of different activities on a day to day basis, offer him kind, warm and compassionate care and really make him feel at home. My son grows in confidence and ability every day that he spends there.

A wonderful nursery, our daughter loves attending and has learnt so much already. I know she is well cared for there and gets to do lots of activities I would not think of doing at home. She always eats well and they have a lovely menu on rotation. The staff are very caring and always look after my daughter's needs.

We found the review very informative and helpful. Every question we asked was answered in the best way.

I've always found the staff to be committed, focused and driven. They have understood the needs of my child and helped his development accordingly. My child always enjoys his days here.

I find my daughter very much enjoys her time at nursery. The staff are very dedicated to her care and learning and are open and friendly. The nursery is always clean and welcoming and has lots of space for play. All the activities planned for my daughter are based around her interests so she is always keen to take part. All in all I am very happy with the nursery and it's staff team.

My son has been attending Banana Moon for a year now and my daughter has recently started there. They're in different rooms (Under 2s and Over 2s) and they both really enjoy their time there! The staff are all friendly, qualified and caring – they take a genuine interest in each child’s development, learning and personality. It took our youngest a few weeks to settle in, however the staff were wonderfully attentive and showed a fantastic level of care to her and reassurance to me. They are happy to work together with any specialists that a child may be seeing and they make learning and developing fun for the children and involve parents as much as possible, providing really useful positive feedback about our children’s progress and great suggestions of how we can continue the development at home. The rooms are spacious and clean with lots of age appropriate toys/activities to keep little ones busy and happy. Meals and snacks are all balanced and nutritious, our children are often eating the healthy veggies which they tend to push aside at home! It is a very happy, positive environment overall.
