The nursery places a strong focus on learning through play and has helped prepare my son extremely well for starting school.
It is a safe, happy and nurturing setting, and we feel very lucky to have such a high-quality nursery on our doorstep.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We really appreciate your lovely words
The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the transition so much easier for both of us and our son. It's clear that the children are genuinely cared for and well looked after in a safe and nurturing environment.
They offer a great variety of fun activities, and it's been amazing to see how much he has grown in confidence since starting. He's always so happy when we collect him, which speaks volumes. Communication from the team is excellent, and we always feel informed and reassured.
We're so grateful to the staff for the care and support they provide - we chose this nursery after it being recommended to us from another parent and we would highly recommend Jack and Jill's to other parents.
Thank you for your kind words. It has been such a joy to watch how much he has changed over the last 6 months
I couldn't be happier with the care and support my child receives at Jack & Jill's. From day one, the staff have been incredibly helpful, warm, and genuinely caring. It's clear that they truly love what they do, and that makes all the difference. The environment is not only safe and nurturing, but also full of fun and creativity. Each day, my child comes home excited about the new activities, stories, and games they've enjoyed. The team goes above and beyond to make learning engaging and enjoyable, which has really helped boost my child's confidence and social skills. I'm so grateful to have found such a wonderful place-it really feels like an extension of our family. I would highly recommend Jack & Jill's to any parent looking for a supportive, enriching, and fun setting for their child to grow.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We really appreciate it
Absolutely amazing nursery! I have 2 children who have been coming here for 1 1/2 years. Fantastic, kind, caring and wonderful staff, I don't have a bad thing to say about it! great activities with the children, my children always come home happy and settled, communication with parents is fantastic, they're always comforting when needing a bit of extra support or communication too. will be sad when my children outgrow Jack and Jill's Corfe Mullen!
Thank you for your lovely words. We really appreciate them. We are pleased we still have a few more years until all of yours leave us!
Wonderful nursery, the staff have really taken the time to get to know my son, he is very happy there, and we always get told about the amazing things he gets up to! The nursery is a great location and feels really homely and clean, I don't worry about him on drop off as the team are great and experienced, I feel he is in great hands!!
Thank you for taking the time to review us. We really appreciate your lovely words
My eldest son has just started school but had been at J&J for 3 years and my youngest has been there a year. They both really enjoy their time at the nursery, it is very much a home from home. The staff team are incredibly caring and they do so many different activities. It's a warm, friendly, happy place and I wouldn't have wanted my boys to go anywhere else.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. It has been such a joy watching your eldest grow up and I'm pleased I can still follow his journey whilst his brother is here.
Our son absolutely loves his time at Jack & Jill Day Nursery; he always goes in smiling and laughing. The staff are genuinely caring, which is so reassuring as parents. We've also really appreciated the excellent communication and documentation, keeping us updated on his development in such a thoughtful way.
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Its always a joy to see his little smile each morning
No qualms whatsoever if we were to decide to have another child and take him / her here
Would thoroughly recommend!!
Thank you for your lovely review, we really appreciate it
They were quick to spot and question glue ear in one child(and they were right)and also to support various needs proactively and professionally.
The kids have grown strong bonds with the staff and when i dropped them off i knew they were not only looked after but properly cared for and loved.
The staff go above and beyond and clearly love their jobs.
There are loads of different activities and they are always changing things up to keep it fresh and engaging.
Thank you for your lovely review. We hope the boys are enjoying the new journey at school
My child joined Jack and Jill's at 9 months old when I returned to work. From the get go the staff were warm and friendly and took the time to get to know my son. The environment they provide is safe and fun and they provide a variety of activities every day which have enabled my child to thrive by learning and developing new skills. The staff are professional, supportive, kind and compassionate. He has made lovely bonds with staff members and gives them the biggest smiles when he sees them coming to the door to welcome him. I have no doubt he is the most amazing nursery and could not recommend them enough, thank you Jack and Jill's for being the best!
Thank you for your lovely review. We are certainly enjoying having him!
Jack and Jill Nursery have been super supportive and after having such a good experience with our eldest going there, it was a no brainier to send our youngest daughter. They have such wonderful activities on offer, both indoor and outdoor. The communication between parents and staff is always spot on and you always feel that they have your child's best intentions at heart. They often offer the chance for parents to come to the setting with their child to explore different activities. Would highly recommend them. :)
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We have really enjoyed having your girls here
I cannot recommend Jack and Jill's highly enough. I have seen my daughter flourish during her time here. She is well cared for by all the staff, and she is offered a wide array of activities that aide in her learning. She always comes home happy and excited to tell me what she has been up to at 'school'. Can't wait to see what else she learns in the coming 12 months.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been lovely to watch your daughter grow in confidence
I put this down to the staff .
He's never cried going in , he runs in and is excited to leave me every morning which I love !
5 stars not enough !
Thank you so much for taking the time to review us. It has been a joy to watch your son grow
My daughter has been at Jack and Jill's since January and has absolutely loved it there! She continues to develop and has learnt so much whilst being there the amount of crafts she comes home with is amazing, the staff are really friendly and the environment feels safe and homely! Without a doubt, this nursery will always be our top choice in the area.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We really appreciate it
Our oldest son went to Jack and Jill before starting school and he absolutely loved it there- so we had our youngest sons name down before he was even born! The staff are all so friendly and nurturing, they all love your kids as if they were their own, and I love knowing that if they are having a bad day or feeling tired, they can get all the love and comfort they need from everyone that works there. The staff have so many different activities planned that no day is ever the same, I don't know how they manage to think of them all. They always plan lovely craft activities for important days such as mothers day and the kids come home with a little package they have made themselves, which is so much more special than shop bought presents. I recommend Jack and Jill to anyone who is looking for childcare in the area
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It has been a real pleasure having the boys here
The staff are warm and welcoming, a home from home vibe is what they have created for us. The setting is perfect, with amble facilities for the children to use and explore.
Thank you Jack & Jill team for being so fabulous.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It has been so much fun having your girls here!
The staff are fantastic with the all the kids. My boys are happy when going in, sometimes not even looking back. They are also so excited to tell us about their day once we collect them.
Before finding Jack and Jill's my eldest tried two other nurseries and just didn't settle. Jack and Jill is definitely the best in ours and our sons opinion and we would recommend it to everyone
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It's been such a pleasure to have your boys here
Jack and Jill's is such an amazing nursery and we can't thank the team enough for all the help and support they have given our little one. Due to our little one having some complex health conditions, I was always anxious about sending him off to nursery but the team put my mind at rest from the moment we met them all. Kind, caring, approachable people who have such a passion for their jobs! We also had some issues with speech when starting but with the teams support my little one has finally found his voice and they provided us with great activities to aid us to support him at home, along with constant communication with what he had been up to but also how well he was developing. The atmosphere is always so fun and friendly at all drop offs and pick ups and quite often I'm jealous of all the fun activities my little one gets up to (especially the ducklings)! The team form such strong bonds with all the children, it's like a second home. My little one is always excited to go to nursery!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We have loved watching your son grow
Thank you!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are already looking forward to your son starting!
Feel very lucky to have found such a wonderful place for my daughter.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It is always a joy to see your daughters smile each morning!
