But I am very happy because my son got everything to make sure he can start school with confidence.
My daughter had been going to Dolly Daycare nursery. Every morning we get there she is always so happy to go and she always has such a good day. She is always asking when she can go back. Staff are always lovely and very helpful and very supportive. I would definitely recommend this nursery. They are always doing a lot of creative things. My daughter brings home all of her activities that she does and the nursery is so creative. Always clean and tidy when I drip my daughter off and at pick up time. Lovely nursery.
Dolly's Daycare is an excellent nursery. My daughter has really thrived there. She has learnt so many new skills and enjoys going to this friendly environment. The staff are excellent with both the children and the parents/carers. The new Tapestry system has been a brilliant and well-used tool, that has allowed me to see the many educational and fun activities organised throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Dolly's Daycare to anyone looking to enrol their child at nursery.
Amazing nursery, the staff are so welcoming and friendly. My grandson loves it. He was very quiet before starting at nursery but now he is more outgoing and happy, he absolutely loves it. The staff are truly wonderful, always there for the children and parents. I can not praise this nursery enough.

Hello, I’m Sandra, serving as the Manager at Dolly’s Daycare.
With an NVQ 4 in early years and over three decades of experience in this field since 1988, I hold the role of Designated Safeguarding Lead within our settings.
Additionally, I possess an advanced SENCO Qualification, alongside certifications in First Aid at Work and Paediatric First Aid, as well as training in food hygiene and various other areas.
Beyond my professional endeavours, I am a proud parent to four children and blessed with five delightful grandchildren, with whom I cherish spending quality time and having adventures.
Animals hold a special place in my heart, as evidenced by my beloved dog, Sky, and my cherished cat, Milo.
In my leisure moments, I find joy in activities such as cooking, reading, and knitting.
Above all, I derive immense fulfilment from actively contributing to the development and growth of children, a role that brings me the utmost satisfaction.
