Review from J G (Mother of Child) published on 4 February 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
We can't recommend Sweet Pea Nursery highly enough. Both of our children have attended, and our son has now been there for well over a year.
What really sets Sweet Pea apart is the genuine care, patience and understanding from the whole team. Our son found the transition to nursery quite difficult at first, which was understandably worrying for us, but the staff were amazing with him - so patient, attentive and supportive, always working at his pace to help him feel safe and settled.
Once he found his feet, he absolutely loved it. He enjoys nursery so much that on the one day a week he stays home with mummy, he's often sad that he isn't going, which really says everything about how happy he is.
There's always something going on, with varied activities and weekly themes, all thoughtfully planned and tailored to the children's needs.

It's such a relief leaving him each day knowing he's with such a caring, dedicated team!

Overall Experience
Our daughter loved her time at Sweet Pea. The staff were excellent and were always welcoming when our daughter arrived at the door, if she was a little unsure at drop-off she would be swept up in the activities or playing games with the staff and other children and often wouldn't look back.
The staff took their time to get to know her, and understand what she liked and what she needed. The key workers that she had during her time were amazing and always gave a great level of feedback to us when we had reports or we asked how she was getting on.

Any concerns that we had were dealt with in a speedy and professional manner which put any concerns at rest.

Overall Experience

Our child absolutely loves going into to Sweetpea. After some time off recently, today they were so excited to return! They care for the children as they would their own. Our child comes home role playing as the names of the staff and wants us to play these roles also! We'd highly recommend sweet pea to any potential parents.

Review from M M (Mother of Child) published on 1 October 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter absolutely loves it at Sweet Peas! The staff are welcoming and friendly, she adores them and gets excited to see them at drop-off. There is a good range of structured activities, themes, free play and story time to keep the little ones happy. Lots of reading and singing too!
The app they use helps keep up to date on what my child has been up to, how she's eating and sleeping, and lots of photos so I know she's happy. It also allows easy communication through the day so if she's not sleeping well or there's something else we need to know it's communicated efficiently (but of course a phone call if it's urgent)

The staff are really helping her focus on her development, and have been very encouraging of her learning to talk and walk, it's really helped her blossom into a happy little girl.

Overall Experience

I am very happy with this nursery. My child has been attenting for 2.5 year. She has always been well cared for and regularly tells us how much she loves the staff members. She feels right at home and enjoys the many crafts and activities done in Sweet Pea! She has learned all her colours, shapes, numbers etc there. I have piece of mind that she's in a great place while I am at work and that's coming from a rather ancious mum!!!

Overall Experience

Both of our kids have been to Sweet Pea and we've found it's been a really good experience, both for them and for us as parents. The facilities are great, a bit of outdoor space, but the thing that stood out the most for me was the staff were really kind and caring with them and and how our kids developed a bit of a bond with the staff. When we trialled removing dairy from my son's diet, the nursery were really good at preparing alternatives. Overall, we were really pleased with Sweet Pea and would definitely recommend.

Reply from Joanne Simmons, Operations Manager at Sweet Pea Daycare

Thank you for your feedback. It's lovely to hear how well the children bonded with the staff :) We count ourselves lucky to have such a good team of caring and kind individuals x

Review from Ellie B (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery have been a complete godsend to us. They have had our beautiful son in their care since he was 6 months old, he is now almost 3 and has blossomed with their love and support. I trust them implicitly with looking after him, and they have had a huge role in developing him into the funny,clever, loving little boy he is. They put so much effort in to activities and trips out which is not expected but gratefully received.We couldn't have wished for a better place and I'm actively putting off sending him to school nursery to keep him happy and settled with all his lovely carers. Thankyou all for loving and caring for Dylan like we do.

Reply from Joanne Simmons, Operations Manager at Sweet Pea Daycare

Wow, thank you so, so much for the positive and kind words :) We like to think that parents see the love and support we provided to the children so it's great to have this feedback to share X

Review from Hazel L (Mother of Child) published on 30 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We've been at Sweet Pea for nearly 8 years with 2 children, the staff have always been engaged, and the children entertained with age appropriate activities. Sweet Pea engaged with parents over meals and provided balanced food options. The children were provided with thematic weeks, and regularly post updates throughout the day so that we can enjoy conversation with our children about their day in the evenings. They make the most of their facilities, it is clean and the children are expected to keep the rooms tidy. They regularly change around toys to keep the children interested. There is pride the upkeep, which has been freshen up and redecorated over the years. While the garden is small, there are a number of different activities to play outside and they often take a walk to local parks. On a personal note the staff have been reassuring when we've left a little one upset in the morning, and always send us a message to let us know that they were ok! It's the little things that help!

Overall Experience

Sweet Pea Daycare is a wonderful nursery. Extremely supportive and proactive in child development. Incredibly friendly staff , who make a real effort. My little girl loves this place and it feels like she has a second family, who also admire and encourage her development. Very supportive with toilet training and nap timings. They work round the child's schedule not their own. My little one has been going here since 9 months and her confidence is empowering and it wouldn't be that way without this place.

Awww we have loved looking after your little one :) It has been a pleasure to look after her and watch her grow. We wish you both all the best for the future :) X

Review from D L (Mother of Child) published on 23 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our son went to sweet pea from about 22 months until just before he went to school, and it was such an amazing first experience for him.
The staff there are all very sweet, kind and caring, I never had an qualms about leaving him there. Any worries we had about him, they were quick to support or placate (I was worried about his speech and they were very helpful).
He also learnt a lot through sweet pea, we never sent him to preschool which I was worried about but he hasn't missed out.
Love sweet pea so much, my partner's eldest went there and our youngest is starting next week.

Thank you for everything you did for our boy!

Review from Charlotte B (Grandmother of Child) published on 22 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My grandson started at Sweet Pea day nursery from the age of 6 months. He has now been at the nursery for a year and he absolutely loves it. He settled in straight away and quickly made friends. The nursery does different activities every day and post lovely photos so you can see what he's been up to and how happy he looks. Even photos of him in the background you can tell he's interested, happy and having fun with his friends. I would definitely recommend Sweet Pea day nursery to anyone looking for a nursery. He's always very happy to be dropped off and go in and play.

Review from Naomi S (Mother of Child) published on 22 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am so grateful that I found Sweet Pea Daycare.. Both of my children attended this nursery from a very young age and really loved their time there. At pick-up they were always happy and eager to tell me about their days, and still talk about their memories. The staff are incredibly caring, sensitive, and are genuinely invested in the children's wellbeing. There is clear communication and parents can also receive photos and updates on an app throughout the day. Days seem thoughtfully planned with plenty of fun activities and time for learning too. The building is nice and clean with an outdoor play area and meals are also balanced and healthy. Overall it's clear that the team puts a lot of effort into creating a consistently safe and nurturing environment here in Sweet Pea. I was always reassured that my children were safe and well-cared for while I was at work. Highly recommend!

Reply from Joanne Simmons, Operations Manager at Sweet Pea Daycare

Review from Kelly A (Mother of Child) published on 19 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Outstanding, fun, full of activities and care.
My son went to Sweet Peas for almost 2.5 years, and what a fantastic nursery it is. The level of care, range of daily activities, food and fun on offer is second to none.
Nothing was too much trouble.
As a parent, to see my child so happy and cared for, in a fun, safe and friendly environment was all I could ask for.
They helped with potty training nap transactions, anything we needed. I'm only sad my son had to grow up and go to school.

They shaped part of who he is, and for that im thankful.

Review from Filomina L (Mother of Child) published on 18 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was initially quite anxious about enrolling my two children in a daycare after our childminder canceled. However, Sweet Peas Daycare has provided reassurance and support from the very beginning. The dedicated staff create a warm and secure environment, and the children quickly feel at home. Our eldest child has since transitioned out, but the staff remain attentive and enthusiastic, pleased to hear about his experiences at school when he comes to pick up his sister. They are also flexible with adding extra days when needed. I would highly recommend this facility.

Our children have been attending for a while and love it. We get a lot of updates through the integrated app so have great visibility of the activities and care they are experiencing. The staff put a lot of effort into following a weekly theme to drive engagement and learning. Would recommend to anyone.

Review from J M (Mother of Child) published on 18 September 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both my children attended Sweet Pea from 1 year old, my youngest still attends the setting. The staff are really caring of the children and always willing to listen to, and carry out, parental requests for example around nap times. One of my children struggled with toilet training, the staff were always willing to support them and carry out frequent changes - this was dealt with so much more supportively and proactively than at childcare setting they also attended.
They have a small garden, but make great use of it going out whenever the weather is suitable m they also make trips out to various local parks.

The activities are varied, and the children seem to enjoy them. I really enjoyed arriving early for collection one day to see the staff putting on a puppet show.
