I felt my little boy needed some interaction from different adults and children and was apprehensive about sending him to nursery as he’s quite a clingy and sensitive boy. I knew instantly that Sunbeams was the place for him. The calming setting to the equally bubbly friendly staff meant I knew it was right. His first day was a struggle for both me and him but I needn’t have worried the girls were so fantastic and caring towards him I knew I’d left him in the best hands.
After a couple of months he has settled really well. He loves the staff, the activities and most of all.......the food!
Thank you to every single member who has made us feel so welcome and look after him like I would.
Sunbeams is fab!!!!
My son started Sunbeams nursery at 10 months old, the Thorpe Park Nursery had just opened and it looked so clean, well thought out and with such lovely big windows. As a first time mummy I dropped my son off with apprehension wondering what was going to happen and I can honestly say the last year and a half he has not once cried at drop off or pick up (he actually cries when we drive past to go somewhere else). All the staff have been so welcoming, keeping us parents informed of how the day has gone and also their progress, they always seem to have a genuine interest. I feel so relaxed knowing my son is in good hands, having fun and learning through play! Fabulous!
I have two children at Sunbeams (infants and preschool rooms) and they love it. A bright, clean and sunny purpose built building will well equipped and trained staff who seem to genuinely enjoy caring for my children. My oldest has been there since the opening and has thrived in his preschool year preparing him to school soon. The activities and events that are organised for the children allow the nursery to feel like a community rather than just childcare.
All the staff are so friendly and knowledgeable. It is evident that they care about the children and their developmental needs are a priority. Each child is treated as an individual as they recognise that no two children are the same and they have an allocated keyworker.
My son has taken a little bit to settle in however all of the staff have been so caring which has been amazing. I can ring as much as I want and they will always provide me with an update as to how he has been.
I can’t thank the staff enough for caring for my little boy when we are at work and I know that he is safe in their care.
My daughter has been at Thorpe Park since September, brilliant nursery and brilliant staff, all so lovely and have done an amazing job at helping her settle in :)
I was nervous about my son attending a nursery as I never did with my first son. Firstly the staff put me at ease straight away, they listened to every aspect of the way I parent my child and have ensured the same is done with my son as is at home! He loves going and socialising with his class mates. He has come on leaps and bounds since going!
My Pre-School child joined in September. He takes a long time to settle into new environments and the staff have been wonderfully caring, nurturing and patient with him. He is now settled and thriving in nursery life. His writing, vocabulary, physical ability, imagination and knowledge is growing daily through the child led activities fulfilled at this setting. He has made a lovely set of friends and great bonds with the staff. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery, its clean modern environment, wonderful staff and convenient location set it apart from any other we considered.
Our two boys have been going to this nursery for almost a year now and they absolutely love it. They settled in so quickly and have made lots of friends including the other children and the nursery staff. It's such a lovely environment that encourages positive behaviour and learning and I can see how far our boys have developed. Each week they are growing and developing and it's just lovely to watch. I have absolute confidence in the nursery, I'm so happy that we found it! 10/10! I could not ask for anymore!
My son started here march 2016. He has recently moved into the toddler room in January and loves it, some days he doesn't want to come home.Ii would recommend this nursery.
Myself and my husband couldn't be happier with the care our child receives at Sunbeams Thorpe park. The staff and incredibly friendly and made us feel at ease straight away. We have noticed a massive positive change in our little boy. Since starting at sunbeams he has become more social his listening skills have improved and he is starting to communicate better. Our little boy absolutely loves attending nursery and is always really excited to go.
My daughter has attended this nursery for over a year now and I could not imagine sending her anywhere else the settings are perfect the staff are friendly and the overall environment is a safe and healthy one for my daughter! Couldn’t recommend enough!!
My daughter has been nurtured by a brilliant team who are attentive, skilled and knowledgeable. Regular activites and great communication mean I am well advised of her progress and her enjoyment.
The food, facilities and outdoor play areas are excellent and together with all the staff make for a perfect nursery.
We absolutely love our son going to Sunbeams and we’re looking forward the when his sister to join too.
My son changed nurseries to attend Sunbeams - it’s has been the best thing I ever did for my child, he has progressed so much, the staff are extremely hard working and put 110% into everything they do. My son adores the staff (one especially) and his friends. I am so thankful for a warm loving nursery to get my son ready for school this coming September. Thank you Sunbeams.
My daughter only attends one day a week but I still feel that she is always included in the seasonal activities and the arts and crafts they make to go with it. Staff are always friendly and always give her such a warm welcome when she arrives on a morning. I feel at ease when I leave her to go to work, I feel shes in a happy caring environment.
We’ve just hit the 1 year anniversary of our little one joining Sunbeams Colton and I thank our lucky stars we found this place.
The nursery has grown so much over the past year and yet every one of the team works tremendously hard to support the children to grow, to learn and to have fun. The team work so well together, always ready to listen and work in partnership to make sure each child gets the support they need and the Management Team are accessible and committed to ensuring the children flourish.
Our child loves her time here. Her relationship building and socialisation skills are great. Her confidence has grown so much. But, as a parent, I have every confidence that’s shes safe and well looked after. All relevant points are recorded and the parents evenings are a great chance to have a proper review of progress.
I can’t recommend this nursery enough!
We were really impressed after attending an open day for the nursery where we were able to speak to staff, have a look around and get a feel for the ethos of the setting.
We feel very fortunate that our son has a place here and we can't recommend it enough.
My son started at Thorpe Park Nursey in October and is absolutely loving it. His confidence has increased and he has great fun every time he goes. The staff are very attentive to his needs and his day is filled with lots of fun activities like baking and painting. The nursery is amazing and so bright with a nice homely feel to it. We cannot fault the nursery or staff and would recommend to anyone.
A new and beautiful nursery, decorated to a high luxury standard. The staff are all incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. My daughter absolutely loves going to the nursery and loves the staff. As I am in the health and fitness industry myself I was at first worried about what the food would be like however I was so pleased to learn that this nursery offers a good healthy meal and healthy snacks and also a variation of different foods in which my daughter had not tried before. My daughter's speech and development have improved incredibly. I love the fact that they are always doing different fun event days for the children, such as mad hatters day and children in need and lots more! The staff even get dressed up as characters! Overall this nursery offers a very high standard of childcare, high quality trained staff, luxury surroundings, great food and also lots of great fun activities for the children.

Meet the Team (1)
Hi, my name is Anna. My passion for childcare started in high school whilst studying childcare at GCSE which led me to go to university. I gained a BA Hons in Childhood and Youth studies and also gained my Early Years Professional Status. Working with children fascinates me as I love to see the learning and development they accomplish before they go to school. I have been working in early years for over ten years starting out as a nursery nurse, quickly becoming a room leader and then progressing to be a deputy manager. I joined Sunbeams in 2016 as nursery manager and have loved every second of working here. Being a mum myself to two young girls I understand it can be nerve racking time when starting your child at a nursery so we want to ensure we support both yourself and your child with this transition.”
