My daughter has been at Banana Moon for over a year now. Her confidence has grown immensely since joining and her speech and other skills have really developed. She is very sociable and a very happy child.

Banana Moon has been great for my child, everyone is supportive and encouraging.
The place is always clean and all the staff are welcoming.

Can't praise it enough after a few not quite so good times at other nurseries.

I really rate the nursery and am very confident that they are helping my twins develop in lots of different ways.
Thye have been so helpful with extra days when we need extra care.
The boys think it is great fun and love their days at nursery.
All the staff are lovely and have helped the twins' confidence.

Facilities are great and clean and accessible for all the kids and the food is really, really good according to the twins.

Review from Robert O (Father of Child) published on 5 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
I cannot thank the staff at Banana Moon enough for the time and care they take with my child.
Despite his development issues they have worked closely with him, taking the time and patience to develop him and introduce him to the group environment.
As a result, my child has come on leaps and bounds and he loves going to nursery - an achievement in itself.

A big thank you to all the staff.

Review from Kirsty W (Mother of Child) published on 5 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience
This nursery is the best I have ever used.
They do a great job with my son and they have brought him on loads.
When they do a review they explain everything in great detail and always go through his tracker with me when he meets his next target which I find great.

I will be gutted when he has to leave for school.

This is an excellent nursery.
My son attends three times a week and has complex issues.

Overall Experience
Well, what can I say my little boy has been at Banana Moon since April 2017 and he has enjoyed every single day up until now. He's enjoyed meeting new friends and the staff and team are so friendly. He always enjoys singing and dancing and playing outdoors, I'm really happy with our choice of nursery for our little boy.

Keep up the good work Banana Moon.

Overall Experience

Highly recommend this nursery. So happy with the care the staff show, their willingness to care for each child according to their individual needs and the extra mile they go to make parents feel comfortable. Activities well planned and staff are always thinking up new ideas for fun developmental games.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been at Banana Moon from the age of 16 months. I was nervous about putting her in nursery, however, now I wish I had come sooner. From the moment we walked through the door the staff have welcomed us - the atmosphere is amazing as are all the staff.

My daughter has thrived whilst she has been at Banana Moon and has a fantastic relationship with all the staff. Thank you.
