Review from Lynsey F (Mother of Child) published on 29 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending Preschool Academy for a few months now and he has thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. I see him developing his fine motor skills, I see him sleeping better and eating better. I put all of this down to the nursery and its wonderful staff. I have no worries whatsoever leaving my child in their capable hands, I would highly recommend the nursery to everyone that needs childcare.

Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Preschool Academy for over two years now and she absolutely loves it. She has moved from Bright Starts room for babies to the Little Learners (2-3 years), to the Little Scholars (3-5 years) and has never really had any issues at all.

Overall Experience

Cannot fault this nursery for the care provided to my son who started with them in April this year when he was just under a year old. My son loves attending and has come on leaps and bounds in his learning and confidence since he started. 100% recommend to anyone who is thinking of placing their child in a childcare place. It’s great having peace of mind knowing that my son is being cared for to the highest standard.

Overall Experience
This nursery is AMAZING. It’s a home from home and my son loves it.

He is encouraged to learn and grow at his own pace. He loves the girls and is especially close to one of them. I know he is safe and secure and I am confident that he is loved.

Overall Experience

My son goes twice a week and he loves his time there. He's nearly two and when you ask if he had fun at nursery he always nods his head. The staff are also very helpful and friendly and he's very comfortable with them.

Overall Experience

Myself and my husband would recommend this nursery 100%. Already have recommended to family and friends. The staff are amazing with the kids. My son absolutely loves going to his nursery. We have seen a big difference in our child’s development, social skills and confidence in attending Preschool Academy. He is also eating a lot better since attending and trying a lot more foods that he would not normally do so. Big thank you to all the staff in preschool. We can’t thank you all enough, having peace of mind knowing our son is in an amazing environment with individuals that really care and go above and beyond to bring in the kids while we are at work. Well done to you all.

Review from Susan J (Mother of Child) published on 27 October 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

This is a warm and friendly nursery with a real family atmosphere. My daughter has been attending for over a year and has built up really strong relationships with both the staff and other children. A wide variety of activities and outings are undertaken and they have built up strong links with the local community.

I know when I go to work she is somewhere where she is not only happy, safe and well looked after, but where she is nurtured.

She can have breakfast, lunch and dinner (all freshly prepared) and morning and afternoon snacks. The menus are varied and well balanced.

I would recommend this nursery to anyone.

Review from Adele M (Mother of Child) published on 27 October 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My wee boy previously went to a childminder and didn’t settle. Another parent recommended this nursery to us and we’ve never looked back. The manager was really patient and kind and allowed my wee one a settling in time which met his needs. He absolutely loves going and I feel the staff really know him inside out. This is a great comfort knowing your child is in good hands when you drop them off. It’s like a home from home for my son.

Overall Experience
Fantastic nursery with lovely staff. My son sees his nursery as a home from home and cannot wait until his little sister joins him!
Very nurturing setting and my son's language and numeracy have gone from strength to strength.

I wouldn't have my children attend any other nursery and find the nursery provides me with strong individualised support as a parent.

Children have just started in this nursery. We had them move to this one from another one and what a difference. Kids settled no problem and staff are amazing. Would definitely recommend this to family and friends.
