Been really happy with the care at this nursery, my son has loved attending. The staff are all lovely and have a real mix of experience. He really loves it when they do trips out to the beach and always comes home singing nursery rhymes. I will definitely send my other children here when it’s time.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this lovely review! I am so happy to hear that your son loves to come to nursery, the team work so hard to make sure that all of the children have a really fun, safe, and enriching environment to learn and play in! Our Beach School sessions really are amazing,...
We moved to the area and chose this nursery for our then 2.5 year old daughter. She settled quickly and loves going. The staff have encouraged her, especially with toilet training. Our baby daughter has just started too and its going well.
Thank you for your lovely review, I am so happy to hear that your daughter settled into nursery life so quickly and delighted that we have been able to contribute positively to her toilet training! I will make sure that your comments are passed on to the team, these reviews make their day!
Lovely staff. My daughter loves going in every day and she is learning so much with them. They have improved the menu. But I am still not happy with pudding for every meal. I'm sure there is no need to give kids sugar when they are so young. And it is hard to tell one kid they can't have it when all their friends are having it.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, I am so happy to hear that your daughter loves nursery and is growing and learning! Our puddings are all low sugar, and we follow the government guidelines on healthy eating for under fives. The advice is that children need the calories that...
My daughter has gone to this nursery for nearly two years. She has come on amazingly with the help of the amazing staff at the nursery. I have never had an issue with my child or information. I will definitely recommend this nursery for years to come.
Hi, thank you for your lovely review. It's wonderful to hear that your daughter is flourishing with the help of our fantastic practitioners! Thank you for recommending us to your friends - it truly does speak volumes.
The four years there have been brilliant and she's absolutely loved it. All the staff have been great, especially her key worker who has been there since our daughter started back in June 2018. Our little one has grown so much, she's got so much confidence (maybe too much - lol) and will do so well at school thanks to the manager and the rest of the team.
Hi Lindsay, thank you for such a glowing review! I am so happy to hear that your daughter has grown in confidence whilst she has been with us - our dedicated practitioners really do go above and beyond to ensure each child reaches their full potential! Your daughter will be missed by all of us,...
My son is at this nursery and has been for almost a year. It is a lovely nursery, all the staff are amazing, friendly and caring. My son speaks very highly of all the staff there, great selection of toys and activities. We love it.
Hi Harriet, thank you for this wonderful review! It is fantastic to see you speak so highly of our team - we make sure to only employ the most passionate and caring practitioners to care for, and educate our lovely children. If there are any team members in particular that you (or your son) would...
Lancing Day Nursery have been amazing. My daughter was not the most confident in new places and could be clingy but from her first settling session at nursery she has never looked back. She has cried when it is not her day at nursery and misses it! She loves learning with the staff and playing with her friends. The staff have supported through changes at home too; when a sibling was born. Which was a massive help as it was such a big change. It helped her understand what was happening and that she was still so important to us too. Even though her key worker changed a few times she did not mind as she has a great relationship with all the staff. She is so ready for school but is really going to miss everyone. Cannot recommend enough. Our youngest will be attending when it is his turn!
Thank you for such a wonderful review. I am so happy that your daughter has enjoyed her early education with us, and it warms my heart to read that our fantastic team have gone above and beyond to support her through such a big change at home. Your daughter will be missed by us all, and we are looking forward to welcoming your son to the family!
Being a first time mum and having to go back to work when my little boy was 9 months old was difficult, but I felt completely at ease, reassured that my son was in safe hands. He is a confident, kind and loveable little boy, I believe the staff have contributed to this, to which he is now ready to move over to the toddler room. The transition has been really smooth with no hiccups. The staff are the kindest of people, always listening to your worries, give advice and cheer at the special moments achieved. The food is spectacular, having an on site chef making the food makes it a home from home experience.
Hi Laura, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this lovely review. As a parent (and a grandparent!) myself, I understand all too well the anxiety that comes with your child starting nursery - it can feel really overwhelming and stressful! That's exactly why we put a huge amount of...
My daughter has been coming to the nursery since 9 months old. She has just had her last day there. Over the years there have been changes made that have only made the nursery better and better. She loved being there, it was like her second home. The staff were all lovely and actually cared about how she was progressing, she loves the food and eats everything normally with seconds. Management really listen to any questions or queries and try and implement what you have said. Really lovely setting for children, lots to do and so much fun. Thank you to all the staff. You made her ready for school and have helped shape the person she is.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful review! I am so happy to hear that your daughter enjoyed her time with us at Lancing Nursery, and that she is now ready for the next big step in her education - I am confident that she will flourish at school as she did with us. The team will be...
In almost 2-years, the staff at Lancing Day Nursery & Pre-school have worked miracles on my son. When he started nursery, he could only say a few words but within a month of starting, he was able to sing a nursery song to me. His speech has gone from strength to strength since. More recently, my son has needed support with his emotional development and I can't thank the staff, especially his keyworker, enough for the help and strategies they've given to my son and myself to work through what was a pretty tough period. The nursery space is incredible, the new room layout really maximises the useable space and I enjoyed seeing my son access different areas of learning during the recent open day. The outside space is amazing and I'm sure my son would spend all day every day out there if he could. I couldn't ask for a better nursery, I highly recommend it!
Thank you for taking the time to give us this valuable and very complimentary feedback. My wonderful colleagues at the Lancing nursery will be so happy to know they've made a difference to your and your son's life. I can't wait to share your wonderful comments with our amazing practitioners - they...
The team are all so caring, understanding and very knowledgeable. All the team are really welcoming and will go above and beyond to help and support.
The observations that we receive are very welcoming and give us an insight into his learning and the fun he has there.
We are so please with how our son has progressed over his time here.
Hi, and thank you for taking the time to leave this review. I am really happy to hear that your son has blossomed and is enjoying his nursery experience! It's really common for children to initially struggle to cope with the big step of starting nursery, and I'm really pleased to hear that the team...
The new setup of the nursery is really great and airy with free-flow access to a big garden playground. I also like that they log activities on the app after each session.
The team have been brilliant with her, sometimes she even cries when I pick her up because she doesn't want to leave!
Hi, thank you for such a lovely review. I'm so happy to hear that your daughter is thriving at our nursery. It's wonderful that she is enjoying it so much that she doesn't want to leave, I'm sure the practitioners will be really happy to hear that. I'm really glad you like the new layout of the...
Love this nursery and my son loves it. Staff are amazing, we love them. They are so understanding, friendly and helpful. My son loves coming to his nursery (which makes all the difference and its so nice knowing he loves it and he is safe and cared for). I couldn't think of a better safer nursery for my son to attend. The garden, facilities and food are great too.
Thank you for leaving such a lovely review. I love to hear that your son loves coming to nursery - it really is a testament to our amazing practitioners and all of the hard work they put into caring for and nurturing our little ones! If there are any staff members in particular that you would like...
The management and staff of the nursery are absolutely friendly and amazing! My girls settled in so fast, I couldn’t believe it. So much attention is paid to the children and no stone is left unturned to ensure that my kids get the best experiences every day. Communication is top-notch and their feedback is laudable. The videos and photos I get from their daily activities and the constant progress report is great! The food is great and I am glad my kids are being exposed to varieties and independent feeding.
Hi Ayobami, thank you for your lovely review. I'm really happy to hear that your daughters have settled in well - it really is a testament to how hard the practitioners work when children feel comfortable so quickly! I'm delighted you are so happy with our nursery, and I will definitely pass your comments on to the team; they will be really pleased to hear them.
My daughter has been attending the nursery since September 2020 starting in the 2-3s room. She is now in the preschool room and has really found her feet and gained a lot of confidence. I would like to thank the nursery Practitioners for encouraging my daughter, helping her gain confidence, and always going that extra step.
Thank you for leaving this lovely review. It's wonderful to hear that your daughter is thriving at Lancing Nursery, the practitioners work really hard to create an environment where the children are learning in a way that grows their confidence and independence. We pride ourselves on going the extra mile, so I'm thrilled that this has enabled your daughter to grow.
We just started at the Nursery and already I’m impressed. The nursery practitioners are incredible and you can tell they really care for the well-being of the children. I appreciate the time and energy they spend on the children and I am assured I’m leaving my little one in great hands. They are caring, energetic, and focused on the development of each child at their own level and pace. It’s like we are sending our little one to an extension of our family.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this review, I'm so happy to hear that your little one is receiving the care that we pride ourselves on! We make sure to only employ practitioners that have a true passion for providing the best learning experiences for our children, and it's wonderful to hear...
My daughter has excelled in this nursery. Especially with her speech. I honestly don’t know what I would do without them. Special shout out to one particular member of staff who is most mentioned by my daughter. She and everyone has been wonderful to my daughter. When she first arrived my daughter's behaviour was very challenging, but they took it all in their stride. Her speech has improved dramatically between speech and language therapy and the nursery working together. I am so very grateful to all of the staff.
Thank you for taking the time to leave this wonderful review. I'm so happy to hear that your daughter has flourished at our nursery - the teamwork so hard to provide a fun, safe, and stimulating environment, and they will be so proud that this has had such a positive effect on your daughter. I...
My daughter has been at this fantastic nursery from the baby snug up to the now larger pre-school room. She really enjoys her time here and has built really strong relationships with her key workers. The nursery practitioners have been absolutely wonderful with her. She gets on well with all the other children and comes home happy and tells me about all the fun things she's done that day.
Thank you for your lovely review. I'm so happy to hear that your daughter has built some really positive relationships with her key workers - they will be delighted to hear this!
A very big thanks to the staff, they are very patient with my son due to the language barrier.
The nursery follows the rules of Covid.
Thank you for entrusting your son with our wonderful team at the Lancing Day Nursery. We strive to create a "family feel" at our nursery, and it's excellent to hear you are so happy! We have such a wonderful team of practitioners whose aim is to nurture and care for every child. Thank you again for your kind words, the team will be delighted to hear them.
Whilst in the caterpillar room my son was exceptionally cared for by the team in there. The love and support they gave us as a family was of a high standard and the activities and learning opportunities were always well thought and tailored to my son's individuality.
Thank you for your very kind review and such lovely comments, my team will be delighted to read them. It's a delight to care for your son, and we are grateful you entrusted us to do the job. Thank you for your support.
