Review from Louise F (Mother of Child) published on 8 November 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a family we want to give our daughter the best life and this would not be possible without Banana Moon Ashmore allowing us to both work full time.
It feels like they all, especially four members of staff in particular, have become our extended family.
The way they look after our daughter, keep her safe, teach her new things and generally show her love is a testament to you all and what amazing people you are.
Two members of staff are constantly spoken about in our house, in the morning our daughter gets excited when I say 'you're going to play with them' today and you can see how much she loves you them both.
We appreciate everything they do for our daughter and teaching her new things, she surprises us everyday and that's down to people at Banana Moon Ashmore and the support they give us, as parents, is incredible.
We don't have much family support so all those advice, the chats of a morning and pick ups are always appreciated and it's lovely they all do it with such smiles on your faces.

They are amazing!

Review from Aanisah M (Mother of Child) published on 3 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The transition from toddlers to preschool for my daughter was amazing. The settling-in sessions into pre-school helped a lot but the excitement at the end of the day said it all. I was apprehensive with dropping nap time but the staff were confident and gave my daughter the choice of whether she wants to nap or not, as well as closely monitoring her. The transition to pre-school has gone so well that my daughter comes home looking forward to the next day.
The nursery is diverse and celebrates it by talking about different cultural festivities. The days of dressing up and wearing the same colours to represent the day make it exciting.

The staff show interest in what children are into and go the extra mile, i.e. having a butterfly kit. Watching the butterflies evolve from eggs is a great way of learning than just reading books and watching videos. The lifecycle of a butterfly is fun education to early years.

Review from T M (Mother of Child) published on 3 May 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
It was a big step for me to put my babies into a nursery so young and I have had a lot of worries with my babies being premature and so small and vulnerable to infections. My babies have come such a long way since joining Banana Moon Day Nursery in January. It’s lovely to see that the twins are not mixed up and treated as individuals, not as one. They both have their own key workers which I feel is good however all the nursery staff know them both well. I would like to say a massive thank you to the mini moons room leader for dealing with all my queries and finding resolutions and a big thank you to the manager who I feel has helped massively. I struggle with anxiety and knowing that the manager is there does put my mind at ease as she was there also when my oldest child went six years ago.

Thank you.

Review from S P (Father of Child) published on 19 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Overall the nursery experience has been very good for our kids. One graduated and now in Year One still speaks highly of his time at Banana Moon. Our youngest is still at the nursery and whilst he isn't the biggest morning person around he always comes out with a smile on his face.

Speech and understanding has been enhancing very well, and areas we wouldn't expect him to communicate on they have both done it quickly.

The only negative we've experienced in recent times is the collection process. There have been occasions were you can be waiting 5-10 minutes to have your child get ready or have them appear. It does feel like this process needs to be revisited and streamlined to allow a swifter collection process. Appreciate the old route of fingerprinting and coming in may not be viable anymore but often we collect and there are long queues in a dark area with little shelter from the weather. Not great in the winter months.

The flipside, the drop-off is always very quick and easy.

Thanks, everyone!

My child loves coming to nursery here, she also came home at Christmas with a Christmas pack with a gift and cards and things she made that will be keepsakes. I feel safe and secure knowing she’s well looked after at Banana Moon.

Review from Rose R (Mother of Child) published on 11 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been attending Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore for 15 months now, since she was 7 months old. She absolutely loves going and often asks for the staff by name when at home. The bond she has built with the baby room staff is lovely, we couldn’t wish for a better experience.
She attends 3 full days a week and enjoys exploring different activities each day, various food options each day and loves to play outdoors when possible.

We genuinely believe that nursery have helped to shape the loving, caring and kind person Isabelle is becoming. We are so glad we chose Banana Moon Ashmore.

Happy with my son's progress and the support and communication from all staff.

He enjoys his time there as he's very happy when collecting him as he tells me all the stuff he's been doing. Also, the art work sent home over Christmas was lovely to see.

Overall Experience

My son has just recently started at Banana Moon, when he first started his speech was very limited and his confidence was very little. However since starting his speech has improved rapidly! He's become a much more happy and confident boy and the staff are amazing! I could not fault them at Banana Moon at all

Overall Experience

I am so glad that we chose to send our daughter to Banana Moon! The staff are amazing, we are always well informed about what has happened at nursery each day. We love seeing all the daily photos of her learning. Each day she goes there is always something different for her to do. If I ever have any queries they always respond back to me quickly. They go above and beyond, we really enjoy the stay and play sessions and the parent consultations. We know she is well fed, loved and cared for here. Thank you!

Review from Satbinder G (Mother of Child) published on 11 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I was really hesitant about putting my child into nursery I viewed a few other nurseries before coming to Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore. I didn’t feel comfortable and confident with them but Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore staff are wonderful and very friendly and supportive. My child has settled in amazingly at the nursery. I feel very confident that my child’s needs are met and that she also feels comfortable when at the nursery.

Review from Jessica W (Mother of Child) published on 11 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been attending Nursery for over 3 months. At the start, he was very upset and anxious, and I can see an improvement each time I drop him off.

His key worker, whom we refer to as his 'nursery mom' as he bonded with her straight away. I have also spoken with another staff member a few times who helps settle him when his key worker isn't there.

The team have been brilliant and I would recommend Banana Moon to anyone.

Review from A S (Mother of Child) published on 11 January 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Excellent nursery. My daughter loves coming and talks about the things she does at nursery all the time. The feedback from staff both face to face and on the mobile app is useful as I don’t always do the pick up for my daughter and therefore it is lovely to get pictures and details about her day from staff remotely. Staff are always approachable and offer advice when requested. We have noticed a vast improvement on her language skills and confidence since attending.

Overall Experience

All of the staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore are extremely friendly and accommodating. They do lots of different activities with the children which I think is great. My daughter took a while to get used to nursery but now she loves it and that is due to the staff. Every time we pick her up they give us a handover of what she has been doing and eating which is really useful.
