Review from Rebecca D (Mother of Child) published on 22 January 2019 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My son loves his days at nursery. He is always happy when he is there. The activities are excellent and great for his development. His talking and interaction with other children has really come on and he is such a confident little boy now and the nursery has really helped with that. All the staff are so loving and caring. I trust them all 100% with my son. He loves everyone too.

As a family, we absolutely love our son's nursery. He has settled so well since joining and they have made special arrangements to accommodate his allergies so he is part of all activities and meals with his friends. I would highly recommend to all friends and family.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been attending here for about a year now and she absolutely loves it. She even makes excited squeals as soon as we arrive in the car park each morning. The staff are lovely and genuinely care about her. They work so hard to ensure that the children enjoy a fun learning environment. My daughter's mental and social development has come on leaps and bounds and I have no doubt that this has been helped enormously by being at Banana Moon Day Nursery Rothwell. I can't recommend them enough!

My little boy (2 years old) loves Banana Moon Day Nursery Rothwell. He has settled in both the baby room and 'Mini-Moon' room fantastically. The staff are wonderful and I cannot thank them more for all they do for us looking after our son.

Overall Experience

My daughter has been coming to Banana Moon Day Nursery Rothwell since she was 4 months old. Now at almost 3, she has learnt so much and developed quickly due to all the activities and learnings she experiences at nursery. We love the opportunity to have parental interaction with family sessions at Christmas and love all the feedback we receive on her development.

My nephew loves being at Banana Moon. He can't wait to see his key person on drop off, then tell me or Mum about all the fantastic things he has been doing when we collect. Cannot recommend Banana Moon enough.

We have been very happy with Banana Moon. The staff are lovely and are great at thinking up lots of fun, engaging activities for the children. It is a warm, friendly environment. My son eats all his meals so I have to conclude the food is great. The weekly music classes are a bonus.

Review from S F (Mother of Child) published on 14 January 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was very anxious when I started to view nurseries for my then 5-month-old child. That was until I visited Banana Moon. From the moment I entered the reception area my expectations were exceeded by the team. The settling in sessions were thorough and I felt they went above and beyond to get to know my child and our family. When my child's first full day came around there were no tears from him or me as he was settled and I was relaxed and confident he was well settled. My child has been attending the nursery for 4 months and I continue to be impressed. The range of food is excellent, activities engaging and fun and I always feel happy and confident that he is enjoying his time there while I am at work.

Review from Nathan S (Father of Child) published on 27 February 2018 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Banana Day Nursery Rothwell Moons care for our child is very good, activities are varied and obviously enjoyed by the children. There are lots for the children to do and they are encouraged to play with things that entertain and appeal to them. The food is very good and the staff are very good at letting us know what has gone on through the day. My only slight issue is at pick up time the room can be a bit chaotic.
