Melville Street Nursery

My son has been going to Melville Street since January 2025, and it is wonderful. ,From the staff, the chefs & menu, activities to the nursery space itself, honestly I feel so secure having his early years of education and care being provided there.

Melville Street nursery has provided a loving supportive environment in which our children have thrived and headed with both social and educational tools which has seen them thrive there too in the case of my eldest child. My middle child will move to school this summer and my youngest will start his Melville Street time later this year. They offer a wide variety of activities and experiences for children which really enriches their time at nursery. Our children have loved the weekly forest school and swimming sessions in the later years and in the earlier years trips to the local area and further afield have been exciting events in their nursery life. Day to day we have been impressed by the feedback given us at the end of each day, the love care the staff provide the children with - we have had several lovely key workers which our children have enjoyed spending time with. We really have been made welcome at Melville Street and really feel part of their family!

I am delighted with the level of care my son receives at Melville Street and highly recommend the nursery to anyone considering it.

The management team are very good and responsive to individual needs. We feel our child is well cared for and supported in all aspects. We've been so pleased with our experience that our younger sibling will be attending.

Our eldest son started in the baby room in June 2023 and our youngest started in the baby room in January 2025. There has been continuity of staff with both boys being looked after by the same staff and having the same key worker in Babies and Tweenies. In the Babies and Tweenies our youngest is taken outside almost daily for local walks, to the zoo, train station, to watch the trams etc. In the School room there is weekly swimming and football and a real focus on learning with a current focus being on road safety. We feel very lucky to have found a nursery where the staff care so much for our kids.

They provide a wide range of trips and activities, which he absolutely loves. It's been great to see how much he gets involved and how happy he is there. We're very happy with the experience so far.

It's a really nice wee nursery. All the nursery workers I've met have been lovely and really care about the kids. The kids get outside pretty much every day, which is great, either in the back garden or out for a walk somewhere in town. The nursery manager is really great at giving info and he seems to know all the kids by name, as knows my child well enough to know their favourite activities. We get regular info from the admin team.

We're so impressed with this nursery and honestly couldn't recommend it enough.

The staff are amazing, they really care about the children and take the time to understand each child and what they need.

It feels like every child gets great support and attention. The forest school and swimming lessons are such brilliant extras and make it even more special.

Our child has only been there a short time but is already thriving and so happy. We feel really lucky to have found it.

Melville street nursery is a wonderful place that my daughter has enjoyed for 4 years now. They are amazing and have been so supportive of my daughter who has additional needs. I cannot recommend enough, the staff are just brilliant.

My son attends nursery since January and so far I am quite happy with care he receives, meals, activities, etc. Location suits us perfectly well and staff are really friendly. An App keeps us posted of relevant news and updates, glad to have it as a reference to everything.

I have had a daughter here starting in the baby room in 2022 and she is now in the school room ready to go off to school this summer. I also have a son now in the tweenie room since the end of 2025. Both my children have always been so happy in this nursery and always formed great bonds with the staff who are so brilliant with all the children. I know that when I drop them off in the morning that they are happy and well looked after every day. The food has always been so varied and healthy cooked by the chef on site and both my children always enjoy the meals. The children are taken on lots of outings to get them outdoors, from walks and trips to the park in the younger years and now my daughter gets to take part in forest school every Monday, swimming lessons every Thursday and football lessons every Friday. There is such a lovely family feel within the nursery and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a nursery for their child.

I pulled my child out of this nursery after a month. I didn't feel that the care was given to individual children's needs and frankly that the place needed a good clean. Lots of very young junior staff. Felt the children were not the priority.
