Only positive things to say about Jubilee Gems. Our daughter absolutely adores it! She has reached so many milestones with the help of the staff at the nursery. The nursery's strong passion for outdoor activities and messy play really make them stand out. The staff are all enthusiastic and totally adore what they do. The nursery has access to a local farm so the children spend a lot of time outdoors with the animals. The staff keep us updated all day through the app so I'm never left wondering how she's doing. They upload pictures at the end of each day and have a weekly activity focus. They serve nutritious food and support us in every aspect of parenting. We can't thank them enough
I truly cannot say highly enough how wonderful all the staff are. From the very beginning, they have been so nurturing and patient with my daughter, who is a very shy child. They've created such a warm, supportive environment where she feels safe and encouraged to come out of her shell. It's been...
She may be very quiet while she's there, but at home she is always full of chatter, excitedly telling us all about her wonderful day. That says everything about how happy and comfortable she feels.
Best nursery !!! So grateful to the team. Incredible setting and Forrest school along with brilliant team and people who genuinely care. I can't imagine finding a better place for my child. Thank you

The team at Jubilee Gems are always going above and beyond for our little girl. Every day she is outside enjoying anything from the farm animals to the mud kitchen. The biggest thank you to the lovely ladies who have helped our girly become the happiest and most confident little person!

We feel so lucky to have our daughter at Gems. From the very beginning, the team have been warm, caring and genuinely invested in her development and happiness.
She absolutely loves the outdoor learning and comes home with the biggest smiles, sometimes with muddy shoes from very serious mud kitchen baking. It's so clear how much thought and passion goes into each day, from creative activities to nurturing support.
The staff are kind, attentive and truly care about every child as an individual. We've seen her grow in confidence, curiosity and independence, and that means the world to us.
We couldn't ask for a more loving and positive environment for her early years. Thank you for everything you do.
For 3 years they have nurtured my child and supported her to become the confident, strong-willed child that she is. She can often recount stories or key phrases. Her regular visits to the woods have enabled her to discuss different aspects of nature on our walks...
All staff on site are polite, friendly and helpful and it has been wonderful to see how much she has grown under her care.
Children are our future, and there is nothing more valuable in our lives than our own. As parents, we do everything to ensure they are safe, happy, and thriving. Choosing a nursery is a deeply important decision, and Jubilee Gems has proven, over the nearly two years that my child has attended, to...
Every time I drop off my daughter, I feel complete peace of mind, knowing she is in the best hands. That trust and confidence is exactly why my second child will also be joining Jubilee Gems next year.
I genuinely do not have enough nice things to say about this nursery. I highly recommend it to all. I was quite nervous sending my first child at 10 months, but she has been eager to go in and see her friends and the staff every single time. They are endlessly cheerful (I do not know how they do it...
She has really thrived here. I very much hope, and fully expect my second child will thrive too come next September! Thanks team for all you do, you really are brilliant!
Jubilee Gems is an amazing nursery. My child has been there since Feb 2025 and has developed so much with the help of the awesome practitioners! They spend so much time outside and exploring as well as carefully chosen activities. It was such a great choice choosing this nursery!

Jubilee Gems is an absolute gem of a nursery. I tell everyone how lucky we are to have the opportunity to send our little boy to Jubilee Gems. The staff are very caring and nurturing, from settling in to the events they organise to the daily updates in person and on the app. They are so enthusiastic and you can tell they love working at Jubilee Gems. On top of that, the children have access to brilliant outdoor space which they visit regularly, including a farm and woodland. I love picking up my little boy at the end of the day, the atmosphere is so relaxed and it truly feels like home from home.

Our little girl has been at Jubilee Gems since she was 9 months old and absolutely loves it. She skips in every day and is full of stories and experiences at pick up. The nursery team are so loving and they create the most wonderful messy play trays and music sessions and outdoor learning opportunities every day. Our girl has especially enjoyed her trips to the library and visiting the elderly people with whom she loves to play. The entire nursery is well run as is every individual nursery room. Each member of staff knows every child by name and it really does feel like a family. I drop off every morning with complete confidence that my daughter will explore, learn, be inspired and very well fed! The nursery cook is fantastic and her 'chicken curry' is an absolute favourite. The children get involved with preparing food on some days and do baking. All round it's 5 stars from us! *****

Our little boy has been going to Jubilee Gems since January and we couldn't have chosen a better place for him to be. He is constantly cared for by such amazing wonderful staff not just in his nursery room but from the management team right through to the kitchen staff. Everyone is just so friendly and caring which makes it easier knowing I'm leaving him in such great hands every day. Jubilee Gems love outdoors and whatever the weather they spend a great amount of time outdoors, whether it's the farm or trips to woods or just time in the garden. They're always spending time outside, enjoying watering plants to playing in mud kitchen or a bit of messy play. We also really love the daily themed messy trays which include a wide variety of sensory activities for him to enjoy. If you're looking for a nursery I highly recommend jubilee gems they are incredible throughout.

From the very first session, our child absolutely loved this nursery - he settled in straight away, which says everything about how warm, loving and kind the staff are.

My son started at Jubilee Gems in the Spring, we have been amazed by the care he has received. We love the daily updates and personal touches from the staff at pick ups and drop offs. I love the amount of time he spends outside. Love it, would highly recommend.

Superb nursery. All of the staff are lovely and helpful. My daughter has enjoyed going over the last year, she was unsure at first as it was a new experience and had a few tears on a few occasions but each time, the staff supported her and made her feel at ease. I would definitely recommend this nursery to anyone. I love how they're not stuck indoors all day, they get out explore the woods and surrounding areas and go for day trips. I wish my little one could've stayed here longer!

Having only ever worked within the Early Years Sector, I have many years of experience working with children and see my vocation as a real privilege. My 20-year career at Jubilee has seen me progress from a nursery nurse to the position I am proud to hold today.
I am proud to lead a highly skilled and enthusiastic team of early-year practitioners who provide high-quality teaching and deliver a vast range of learning experiences. I have a passion for guiding and training the team to achieve great things for all the children in our care.
Over the years, I have had inspiration from many different learning approaches which have been embedded into our Early Years Curriculum, recently achieving an ‘Outstanding’ result from our latest Ofsted inspection at one of our Jubilee sites!
I feel honoured that parents give Jubilee Daycare the opportunity to care for their children and as a team, we pride ourselves on delivering exceptional learning opportunities and unique Early Years experiences.

Paula has been a part of Jubilee for many years, working across the different age ranges and across both sites.
She has always held a passion for being outdoors and creating ambitious learning opportunities through her forest school sessions. Paula is our Level 3 qualified Forest School Leader, and she carefully follows the unique and carefully created forest school aspect of our Jubilee Gems Curriculum, making this a strong element of our preschool practice. Despite the British weather, Paula embraces the woods daily, where she develops the children’s resiliency, independence and problem-solving whilst also developing the children’s knowledge of woodland growth, flowers, trees, birds and wildlife. In addition to this, the children also develop and use the skills to whittle sticks, build a den, and toast marshmallows on the campfire. Paula works with the rest of the team to ensure a consistent approach to the children being forest school-ready.

I have worked at Jubilee Gems for over 10 years and in this time, I have gained a wealth of experience and knowledge across all age ranges, including our out-of-school care, Jubilee Jets. My love of the variety that working with older children brings means that every day is different and unique. As the Jubilee Jets Leader, I ensure a wide range of activities are offered to the children and these include making pizzas and toasting marshmallows at our dedicated woodlands, having our Jets Bake Off and our much loved ‘Jets Got Talent.’ My team and I ensure there is a balance of creativity, imagination and exploration whilst encouraging socialisation. Watching friendships form over the holidays is the highlight of leading Jubilee Jets.
