This nursery has helped my son since he started last year, they have picked up on his problems and we have together got things in place to help him. I couldn’t have asked for a better set of staff to look after both of my children. They are always there for the children and parents and actually listen to you. The children are well taken care of and everyone goes that extra mile.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is a pleasure to look after your children, to watch them learn and support them in getting ready for school.
My child has learnt so much only being there 3 months. She was very shy at first but the staff was so helpful with settling her.
Staff are amazing and all-around great carers.
The nursery is clean.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is a pleasure to look after your children, to watch them learn and support them in getting ready for school.
The environment is conducive to children's upbringing, learning and development with a welcoming staff.
Thank you for your review we feel it's important to keep our parents and carers up to date with their child's day-to-day activities.
My daughter has settled well in nursery, and she enjoys seeing the staff. She's progressed and learned so much already in the two months she has been there. The app is a bonus, so we can see what she does daily.
Thank you for your lovely review. It's a pleasure looking after your child.
Our son currently attends Boat House Day Nursery three days a week and is in the Babies and Waddlers class. He absolutely loves attending nursery, and it is amazing to see how much he has developed since being there; it’s wonderful to see his speech coming on. The care and attention he receives from each staff member is amazing, especially his key worker. Thank you, Boat House, for the care you give and for everything you do!
Thank you for your lovely review. It's a pleasure looking after your child.
My daughter absolutely loves nursery and gets really excited to go.
The staff are amazing at what they do and give a great helping hand when needed. They’ve helped me and my family a lot and I am grateful for everything they’ve done for my children.
Thank you for the lovely review, we are always happy to help and support our families.
My son has attended this nursery from Babies and Waddlers right through to preschool 2. Every single member of staff has always been brilliant and is so helpful. They have taught my son so much throughout his time there and I am so glad I sent my son to this nursery as they were so so supportive and brilliant. We will miss them all so much.
Thank you for your lovely review, we would like to wish your son good luck moving on to reception.
We cannot recommend this nursery enough; I don't believe my son would have been ready for school without their help, and we will always be grateful for that.
The staff are brilliant, the food is excellent quality (was always eaten!), and the facilities are great for all the children.
Thank you Boat House Day Nursery for the brilliant experience, I can't wait for my daughter to attend when she's old enough!
Thank you for your lovely review; we would like to wish your son good luck in his next chapter moving on to school.
The nursery is excellent and has been a huge support when managing referrals and extra support for my little boy who has additional needs. Since starting at Boat House his social skills have advanced massively and he has now begun to say some words. I believe a massive reason for this is the one-to-one attention and sessions he has with the staff at Boat House. My younger daughter has also been attending Boat House since she was 5 months old and has really settled in developing good independence and confidence from the routine.
Have a very good experience with Boat House Nursery. My kid enjoys playing there and the staff are very helpful and support him a lot. It has very good facilities including a soft playroom and activities organised by them are fantastic. My kid seems to develop a lot after starting in the nursery and we are very thankful.
Thank you for your review. It's a pleasure looking after your child.
My little boy has been attending Boat House Nursery for just under two years. He always enjoys himself when he goes, he has friends he always talks about and the staff are amazing with him I always feel happy when dropping him off as I know he is well looked after and it's a safe environment.
Thank you for the lovely review. It is a pleasure looking after your little boy and watching him grow and learn.
My son loves the nursery so much. The staff are amazing, but only one comment, we need to see more pictures, but other than that, absolutely love it. Thank you all for your hard work and I feel that my son, he's in safe hands.
My little boy loves it at Boat House. He runs into nursery ready for a cuddle with his key worker and he enjoys every minute of his day there. His development is coming on so well since starting and I’m so glad he goes there. The staff are always lovely with me and his other caregivers and open and honest with any issues that comes to light. I would highly recommend the Boat House to family and friends and look forward to him continuing his journey here.
Our son has been going to the Boat House from being 11 months old and is now aged 3 years old. Attending nursery has definitely helped his development and interactions with other children. The staff are lovely with the children and take the time to keep parents updated. Whenever I collect our son from nursery he and all the other children are always happily playing. I would definitely recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review. It is a pleasure looking after your son and watching him learn and develop through his early years.
Thanks guys at Boat House Day Nursery.
Thank you for your lovely review, it's a pleasure looking after your little girl and supporting her through her early years.
The Boat House is a lovely nursery with friendly, helpful staff who are fantastic with the kids and really bring on their development and pre-school education in a low key, warm and supportive environment. I can’t recommend them highly enough, my son loved it here.
Love the Boat House I don't have a bad word to say about it I and my son have loved it here. We will both be sad as he's leaving next week to start school! staff have all been brilliant too! also lovely and clean.
Best Nursery Ever. The Staff Are Amazing Always Helpful Can’t Fault this Nursery in any way. Everything about it is excellent and will always recommend to other parents. My son has enjoyed his time here and will miss all the staff very much.
My daughter has been at Boat House Day Nursery since she was 2, she’s now 3. She has come so far with her speech also singing nursery rhymes. She loves coming to nursery, she’s always happy when she comes out too! She tells me what she’s done on that day I definitely recommend this nursery to any parents 100%.
My little boy previously attended this nursery and I was really happy with the care he received and so have recently enrolled my baby girl. It’s a fantastic nursery all the staff are friendly, welcoming and make you feel at ease.
