Review from Naomi W (Mother of Child) published on 15 April 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My Twins have attended Banana Moon since they were 10 months only and now they are almost 3, so far the journey at Banana Moon has been lovely. The staff are friendly and really care and build great relationships with the children.
The nursery facilities are clean and modern, with a lovely outside area. Also, the meals provided are lovely and healthy options are always on the menu.
My children have so much fun at nursery, learn lots and really create a special bond with their key worker and other staff. I feel confident leaving them in the kind and safe environment provided.

Highly recommended.

Overall Experience

My son has been attending Banana Moon for a year now, the staff have helped him so much with his separation issues, his speech is amazing, every day when he comes home he has learnt something new! My son is always happy and content when going into nursery, the staff help as much as they can and answer any questions I have. I'm happy knowing my son is safe, happy and well looked after. Putting him into nursery so early was the best decision I've made, after his journey here I know he will be set for his journey to start at school. Honestly cannot thank the staff enough! Especially his key worker.

Overall Experience

Our little boy has been attending baby/mini-moons since Sept and he absolutely loves it. The staff are excellent and extremely attentive and as a result our little one loves being there. The staff all know him by name and are friendly and approachable. He has his own key person who knows exactly what he likes and dislikes but even so he is comfortable going to any of the staff. He does a range of activities each week and many that extended his learning experiences. The food he eats is healthy and nutritious and he has plenty during the day. We get daily reports and can have access to his file at any time which is always up to date and as part of this have had lots of photos shared with us of his learning which is lovely. Working in education myself I feel confident knowing our little boy is also getting a great start towards his learning journey. A fab little place. Well done all!

Review from Matt O (Father of Child) published on 21 March 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been at this nursery for a while now having started in the baby room and moved through the other rooms. What strikes me about the nursery is the fantastic pastoral care; my son has a genuine love for some of the staff who really care for him. The level of interaction and activities is way beyond other nurseries. When I collect my son, it always strikes me how happy the children are and how engaged the staff are too.

Sometimes when I collect my son, the place is like a bomb site, not through tardiness or lack of cleaning but because kids are encouraged to play and develop when you drop them the next day, the rooms are immaculate again.

I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough.

Review from Fiona A (Mother of Child) published on 21 March 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has been coming here since she was 6 months old to enable me to return to work.
The staff have been great, welcoming, reassuring, helpful and approachable for me and my daughter which has been a huge help.
I am kept up to date with everything and any incidents involving my daughter have been fully explained and resolved.
My daughter only attends one day a week to enable her to socialise with children her own age, so sometimes she gets a little anxious when separated or left but this is always dealt with in a caring and effective way.
I am confident that my daughter is in safe hands and is safeguarded from harm during her time here.

Thank you all so much.

Review from Rebecca W (Mother of Child) published on 26 November 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My twins started at Banana Moon not long after it opened. They were 2. They are now 4 and LOVE their nursery! They have improved so much with their drawing and writing, as well as speaking and listening. One of my girls wasn't always as confident as she is now and I credit a LOT of her confidence to Banana Moon.

I also have a little boy in the baby moons room. He has attended since he was 7 months and is now 18 months old. He is a confident little boy and loves nursery. His is keyworker and is absolutely amazing! I really believe she cares for my son and I've often seen my little boy run to give her cuddles.

Staff are brilliant, food must be fab because my kids usually clear their plates and facilities are clean and designed for the children's needs within the room. Can not recommend enough!

Review from Jessica W (Mother of Child) published on 21 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can't put into words how much my daughter has improved since starting at Banana Moon. Her speech has improved dramatically, she's toilet trained, she's more willing to socialise with others, more confident as a person, as well as a happy and bubbly little girl. My little girl was always excited to tell us about her day at nursery. It was lovely to hear her friends shouting her as she arrived and saying goodbye as she left, she has made some lovely friendships whilst at Banana Moon, with other children as well as staff. The staff at Banana Moon have been amazing and are an amazing group of ladies, very friendly and welcoming. Thank you, Banana Moon, for giving my daughter the help and encouragement she needed, as we had a terrible experience elsewhere. Overall, we have had an amazing experience at Banana Moon Day Nursery, Ashmore Park.


Thank you

Review from Danielle D (Mother of Child) published on 20 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter absolutely loved going to Banana Moon Ashmore, she settled extremely well in each room thanks to their great transition activities and wonderful staff. The setting was a winner for us in comparison to other nurseries we looked at; friendly, welcoming, clean, new and stimulating. The staff often went above and beyond in their care and I always felt like my daughter was extremely well looked after. We were always welcomed with friendly faces and felt like the management very much had an “open door” approach where we could speak to them about anything at all. The detailed feedback that is delivered to parents daily is a prime example of this. We were really sad to leave the nursery due to my daughter starting school but the skills and relationships she developed will stay with her always.

Review from Ravinder K (Mother of Child) published on 17 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter has just graduated from Banana Moon Nursery, she was at the nursery for 2 years just when Banana Moon nursery opened and one of the first children to attend. Good education, learning activities, outside play area. Our child was so happy at the nursery, it was practically her second home. She loved all her teachers so we know she was well taken care of. Her development from 2-4 years has been brilliant. Getting a daily report from the staff of our child's day was so great and put us parents at ease with her wellbeing.

I can't believe how much she has picked up and learnt over the years. She is very well mannered, sharing and caring with others. She has now become a very confident well-spoken child and it is all thanks to Banana Moon staff. I have absolutely no regrets about sending my child here. I am actually grateful that they opened at the right time we were looking for a nursery. We have seen the nursery expand and it's amazing. We most definitely have been recommending the nursery to our friends and family.

Review from Tina F (Mother of Child) published on 12 September 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My daughter has attended Banana Moon since it first opened until July 2018 when she left because we moved area. The nursery is extremely accommodating and approachable in its set up. My daughter's development has been credited to the staff at Banana Moon. All the staff work very hard as the hours are long and they are there from the start of the day and most are there until it finishes which is at 6.30pm. The owners are always looking at ways to improve the nursery and welcome feedback. The nursery manager is an extremely endearing and knowledgeable lady and always has time to speak with you. The nursery looks good and is kept very well and my daughter has enjoyed her time there and is still visiting even though we have left the nursery.

Kindest regards Tina

Overall Experience

My daughter learned so much being at Banana Moon. She really enjoyed her time there and all staff were very friendly and informative. The highlight for me was the Christmas performance you could see the hard work put it by the staff and children blew us away. I loved hearing all the creative things my daughter had done during the day. And my daughter especially enjoyed meal times and the wide variety of healthy food and snacks

Overall Experience

My son has just left this nursery to start reception and was very sad to go. The staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery Ashmore are fantastic. Very friendly, approachable and look after each child in a unique way. Since starting there my son can now add and subtract, write his name beautifully and tries more foods. They understood he needed help with balancing and movement and introduced yoga and Zumba to help him along (which he loved). They have so many wonderful toys and activities for children to play with and a great outdoor space with new things added throughout the year. They bake lots of healthy snacks and take trips to local post offices and greengrocers to let them explore. I will definitely be sending my next son here when he is old enough.

Overall Experience
My son attends Banana Moon for two full days a week. The Nursery is excellent!

My son really enjoys nursery, he is involved in lots of organised activities and he especially enjoys the outside play. The meal plan is excellent, offering a variety of fresh fruit and vegetables. The nursery is very good at keeping parents updated and I feel the communication is excellent. The staff are currently in the process of supporting my son with potty training. I have no worries and feel rest assured that I’m leaving my son in very safe hands. Commend all the staff as they all work so hard to run such a lovely happy Nursery!

Review from Paresh P (Father of Child) published on 24 October 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff at Banana Moon Nursery developed a close bond with us from the onset. It was very daunting for us to send our first child to a nursery but Banana Moon established a family partnership with us and this made all the difference. We were informed and involved with our daughter's learning journey from the very start and kept updated at all times. It was evident that our daughter developed in many ways both socially and academically. This was from our own observations. During parents evening this again was reiterated in the evidence of our daughter's Learning Journey. Records were both daily and annotated by the members of staff so that we could see and understand what learning was taking place. Banana Moon Nursery will not be forgotten. Both by my wife and I but more importantly my daughter. Her first steps to begin her learning journey.

Foundations were put in place for my daughter to succeed. Thank You Always.

Review from Zoe S (Mother of Child) published on 15 August 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I am so pleased with the amazing care my daughter receives at Banana Moon. Since joining last year she has changed so much. She was a quiet, shy little girl and she had been slow to talk. Now she is a super confident and very chatty little girl who loves nursery very much. All the staff have been fantastic. I love that they all know who she is despite the fact she only attends for two sessions a week. I always feel I am leaving her with people who really know her and understand her. The nursery itself has great facilities and well planned activities. I would highly recommend Banana Moon Ashmore to other parents.
