I would highly recommend Rose Cottage Day Nursery Ltd! My daughter has been at Rose Cottage Day Nursery Ltd since she was eleven months old and is now three years old nearly four. She will be at Rose Cottage Day Nursery Ltd until she goes to school, so will have spent time in every room. The setting is obviously fabulous and the outside space is such a huge positive but it’s also the staff that help make it fun, engaging and special for the children. This is evident from how happy my daughter is at nursery. The management on site is also great, quick, efficient and professional with any queries.
My son has attended Rose Cottage Nursery for the past year and we are really impressed with how well he settled into the nursery. When I drop him off or pick him up he is happy, he gets excited when we talk about nursery at home or look at photos of him on Tapestry. Communication is very good from all the staff particularly with COVID-19 precautions in place. Above all, as parents, we feel he is safe and his development encouraged whilst in their care and plan to send our youngest to the same nursery as a result.
Our daughter has been going to Rose Cottage since she was 11 months old, and she absolutely loves it! All the staff have been amazing and she has always been so happy and comfortable there. The outdoor space, and the amount of time that they spend outside on a daily basis, is just amazing. She loves all the animals there and it's just such a lovely environment for children to grow and learn in. She is now 2 years old and her language and general development are coming on leaps and bounds, and I can really tell that her experiences and all the stimulation she gets from Rose Cottage is contributing so positively to her development. She also has food allergies, and the staff have been so great with managing that, being flexible and supportive and always keeping us informed. We couldn't be happier with our experience, and really want to thank all the staff for their hard work they do every day for all the children.
I could not recommend Rose Cottage more. The staff are extremely caring and attentive, creating fun projects for them all to take part in. Both of my kids love their time there and have formed great relationships with the team and fellow children. We love the outdoor space the nursery has and the fact the kids get to interact and help care for the animals.
We chose this nursery for many reasons, the outside space being one of them. Our little boy loves his time spent here and loves the animals and outdoor playtime; getting muddy and splashing in puddles! The key workers are so caring and lovely and he always has lots of fun with all his little friends. We couldn’t recommend the nursery high enough!
I can't recommend Rose Cottage enough my daughter has been happy there since day one and all the staff are very kind and friendly. It's great to see and hear how many activities they do including the outside space and the animals. We are very happy with Rose Cottage thank you to all the staff for doing such a great job.
Our Son has been so happy with the time he spent at Rose Cottage. He started in the baby room and progressed all the way to the toddler room, without a single bad moment for him. The staff have all been incredible and he talks about them and his key worker assigned to him all the time. The outdoor setting with the small wood was perfect for his growing mind to explore with his friends, with plenty of muddy puddles, and a new castle fortress that he loved. We know that spending time at Rose Cottage has helped form wonderful golden memories in his early formative years in a special environment, learning to interact with other children under the watchful attention of a great team of nursery carers. We have a new-born who is already booked and registered with Rose Cottage; it is nice to know he will be going to enjoy the same experience as his older brother.
Nothing but good things to say about the nursery. My children love going. They're both very much outdoor kids so the garden and woods is amazing for them. The team are brilliant! My children have grown close with their keyworkers and other team members. They love all the activities the girls do with them and are always coming home with pictures and projects they've done. Thank you for taking such good care of my babies.
My son has excelled throughout his tenure at Rose Cottage. He started when he was 11 months and has recently left to attend school. He absolutely loved his time at Rose Cottage and I believe it has contributed extensively to the fantastic, kind, interested, funny, lovely character he has grown into. There are so many plus points to the place - from the fantastic outside woods to all the amazing animals - which he adored, to the wonderful space/ activities inside. Not to mention the wonderful staff - he has absolutely loved attending and has benefitted immensely from it. Thanks, Rose Cottage.
My son absolutely loves going to nursery each week as Rose Cottage is such a welcoming, engaging and nurturing place. The unique forest setting makes it a very special nursery, along with the animals and we really value the amount of time my son spends outside exploring, playing and learning each day. The staff are incredibly friendly and I really appreciate the time they take to discuss each day and answer any questions. It is clear they care about each individual child and take time to tailor activities to their interests. They have excellent resources and support with things such as potty training. My son comes home happy every day.
The food is of a high standard, rarely has my child comes home hungry and in need of sustenance.
Our son turns one at the end of the year, and he will also attend Rose Cottage, and I have no doubt he will enjoy it as much as his sister has.
Keep up the fantastic work Rose Cottage. We truly look forward to the next few years and seeing our little boy grow and develop.
The nursery was renovated in 2019, so everything is new and full of excitement for little ones. Rose Cottage is perfect for children who enjoy the outdoors. They have a large garden that can be used in all weathers. They also have a huge woodland area for the children to play in with a large wooden castle with slide, a mud kitchen and water shoots!
Rose Cottage is also wonderful for children who love animals. They have two goats called Princess Coco and Lola Sparkles (I think!), Toffee and Popcorn the guinea pigs and chickens that they hatched from eggs this year - an experience that my girls loved!
I would recommend Rose Cottage to everyone. My twins have flourished in the setting and are now very much ready for school. The staff at Rose Cottage are absolute stars and loved by the children. We will miss them very much.
My son has been going to Rose Cottage since he was 18 months old and he’s now nearly five and he’s loved every moment there. It’s such a cosy, creative space with a fantastic outdoor/wooded area with lots of amazing animals. And the staff are second to none, supportive and nurturing and really make the setting superb in every way. They’ve helped my son reach huge milestones, from learning to talk when initially his communication was delayed, to potty training, eating and dressing independently and becoming the confident, funny, amazing child he is today. They’ve really prepared him well for his next step going off to school and I couldn’t be more grateful.
My daughter has been at Rose Cottage from age 1 to now 4 1/2 years. She has loved her time there, especially the animals and outdoor space. She is very fond of her keyworker and often doesn't want to come home at the end of the day, which speaks volumes. My daughter has a dairy allergy and the staff are all brilliant at including her in all cooking activities with dairy-free alternatives so she never misses out. Thank you Rose Cottage, you are all amazing.
The staff are all so lovely, kind and caring. My son has some complex allergies which have never been a concern with them, they cater to his needs.
