Review from Arfana B (Mother of Child) published on 14 February 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter attends this nursery. She has been going since September. I would recommend this nursery to everyone. The staff are very supportive and polite. The manager is very welcoming and goes out of her way to help. My daughter attends the investigator's room and she is always very happy to attend,
which as a parent is very important to me. If I could give this nursery 10 stars I would.

There are so many reasons why I love this nursery. One being the rooms are so fresh, clean and tidy. It is a vegetarian-based menu so I don't have to worry about what my son eats. The staff are great. They not only ask how my son is but they care about me too. Using the EYFS is very important to me
and my son's development and I'm glad they implement this into his play.
I love using the app, less paperwork.
The staff and management are great.

We searched long and hard to find a nursery that would meet our needs and this nursery have gone above and beyond with that. Staff work well with parents to help the child settle in, it took my girl a couple of weeks to get comfortable but now she loves it. The staff/management are lovely, I see my
daughter develop each and every time she attends. Love how the learning journey is on an app so I can see her developing. Happy daughter = Happy Parents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been at Fireflies nursery since February 2019, when he was 16 months old. The staff has been brilliant and I felt very confident leaving him there when I returned to work. The staff gave excellent feedback every day about his day to day activities and encourage parent feedback and involvement
with the nursery, which makes me feel that you and your child are very valued by the nursery.
My son always smiles as we go through the gates each morning, which is enough proof for me that he enjoys his time here. I would have no hesitation to recommend Fireflies Nursery!

My daughter attends Fireflies Nursery and she really loves it. She recognises all the teachers and that really surprises me as her she hardly talks, her communication skills are progressing very well. All the teachers are really friendly and caring. my daughter cries when she is not at the nursery.
I am very happy that she is happy.

Review from Harry L (Brother of Child) published on 9 August 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I've always found Fireflies to be welcoming and the rooms are very stimulating, my brother really enjoys attending the nursery. He gets really excited and loves to come home and tell us about all the interesting activities he has been taking part in. The nursery has 3 lovely gardens and my brother enjoys
being able to go outside exploring them. There are always activities for him to play with around things he is interested in, he especially enjoys the new climbing wall, he has become more confident with the support of the staff at climbing, riding a bike and enjoys playing in the mud kitchen.

Review from R B (Mother of Child) published on 6 April 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My son has been at Fireflies for almost 12 months. The staff work extremely hard with the children in providing daily enjoyable activities. The rooms are well equipped with a large variety of toys/activities to help the children learn and excel. In the investigator's room, there's even a small climbing
(indoor) frame. My son thoroughly enjoys his time at the nursery. Children are taught how to respect all values and other 'all-round' skills to help them to be kind, caring, sharing, independent skills to aid school transition.

Since joining The Fireflies my daughter has developed in so many ways. She is more confident and balanced and looks forward to going to nursery every day. My daughter loves the teachers very much and the teachers are very approachable for parents.

My little one joined Fireflies Nursery when he was about 8 months! Staff are lovely and well trained my little one is well looked after and I get pictures and videos of him through the app it always makes my day at work. They track his progress and development and I get notified of little achievements
which are very important at this age. They also have events and involve parents in their children's care.
My son is well fed and always happy on pick up.. they stick to policies even his GP was impressed.
What can I say? I can never praise this nursery enough its clean, homely and professional! Well done team Fireflies Nursery we are a very happy mum and son thank you!

Fireflies is a fabulous nursery with bubbly and welcoming staff. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting fireflies and I couldn't ask for a better nursery for my daughter. As a mother, I feel I can relax knowing that my daughter is in capable hands and she is safe I was very nervous
about sending my daughter to nursery but I was made to feel quite relaxed when she started.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My little cousin started going to this nursery in January as they opened up. It has been amazing to see how much she has learned. She was shy to start and would cry when coming in, now she waves and runs off into the room.
Toys are very nice and classrooms are spacious. She has been exploring all
different things such as mud, sand, paint and woodwork tools.
The outdoor area is huge and she goes outside every day. She loves it there. It's always clean and tidy and all staff are very happy and friendly.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I just would like to say since my son has been going to the nursery from January, he has loved every moment of it. My son has always been so attached to me I thought he will never get used to staying there on his own, but I was so surprised within 2 to 3 days he was going on his own. This is all due
to the staff, they have been very helpful and caring towards the children. I loved how neatly everything is presented and the atmosphere is very cosy for the children's.
I would recommend every parent to come and have a look and see for themselves. Thank you Fireflies.
