I cannot recommend Yellow Penguin Nursery highly enough. It has been one of the best nurseries my children have attended, and they truly loved every moment of their time there.
The staff are exceptionally caring, knowledgeable, and dedicated to understanding and meeting the individual needs of every child. They are always friendly, approachable, and welcoming, creating a warm and nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and happy.
The management team clearly puts the best interests of the children at the heart of everything they do. They ensure staff are continually updated with the latest knowledge and practices, while maintaining a flexible and supportive approach for families. Knowing that your child is in such a loving and caring environment gives real peace of mind.
Communication with parents is outstanding. The team keeps families informed through the app, newsletters, and phone calls whenever anything important needs to be shared. This level of involveme
Such a fantastic nursery can't fault the staff and there care. My son has been going here since he turned 1 and this week he turns 4. The nursery and staff have really helped my son with his confidence and communication skills and he is such a bright happy boy. So glad I chose this as his nursery. Thank you to the management and the rest of the nursery team.
Thank you so much for the lovely review! So nice to hear that you are happy here!
Fabulous management and staff, very friendly and genuine care for the kids. They have a wide variety of activities every day and the kids build a positive bond with staff. End of the day feedback to parents is reassuring and kids are encouraged to do their best always. Would recommend it to others.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are glad that you are enjoying the nursery.
My daughter has been at Yellow Penguin for over a year now. We had tried 2 other nurseries around us but finally found peace of mind here. She's happy, safe, adjusting well and learning. The teachers and assistants have all been lovely and we feel happy leaving our child in their care. She looks forward to going to nursery and she's only 2!
Thank you very much for your lovely review, we are glad that you and your daughter our enjoying it here.
I feel at ease and reassured when he is there knowing that he is in safe hands. It is clear that they take safeguarding very seriously. There was a recent message reminding parents not to open the gate for anyone for example.
At home, any mention of nursery staff and my son's face would light up and he starts to look around for them and starts singing.
Thank you for the review. We take our Safeguarding very seriously and are happy to hear that you and your child are settled here!
Outstanding level of care. We've had 3 children under the care of Yellow Penguin, and they all loved it. The staff and facilities are great, and the kids love it and are thriving. Would happily recommend it to anyone!
Thank you so much for your kind review, I will feed this back to the staff.
He has been attending for roughly 9 months and in that time he has had amazing care provided by staff.
The staff are really attentive, caring and pay attention to detail. Both wonderful ladies!
They provide fun activities for the children and update the app often, so we are aware of what is going on throughout the day.
I feel my son has developed really good relationships with both of these workers, and I see staff from toddler/pre-school interacting with him often too, and they seem positive and upbeat.
Overall I have no concerns when leaving my son and I am happy with the progress he is making and developing his all round skills.
Thanks to all the staff, keep up the hard work.
Thank you so much for your kind review, I will feed this back to the staff.
our first few weeks when we were nervous and so was he they always put our mind at ease and rest. Another staff member always checks in with us and our son and is very understanding especially when we are new to it all. Even updates on the app and what he's been up to put our minds at ease. We've really noticed a development as well. Couldn't recommend enough.
Thank you for your lovely review, glad you are enjoying the nursery.
While there have been occasions where our daughter has been upset (as will any child) she has formed a very close bond with her primary carer and other teachers in her pre-school group. She is cheerful when we pick her up, the staff are wonderful with her and understanding, flexible and accommodating of her needs. Yellow Penguin provide our daughter with a stimulating and caring environment that we are comfortable leaving her in. It takes the worry out of your day knowing one of the most important people in your life is being very well cared for.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Glad that you are happy with everything!
My daughter has been at Yellow Penguins for just over a month. The induction process was a little disappointing as it required me to chase the setting several times for start dates, session times etc. My daughter has settled in really well and the staff who care for her are fantastic. She is really becoming more confident and looks forward to going to nursery every day to see her friends. The communication on the app is great and the key workers send us lots of updates about her day, what activities she’s enjoyed and how she’s eaten. Three staff members in particular are amazing! They always have a smile on their faces during drop off and pick up and are really welcoming to my child. They’re able to tell me what activities she’s enjoyed during the session and it feels like my child is really cared for at Yellow Penguin which is really reassuring as a parent!
Thank you for your feedback and apologies for the issues with the registration process. We will feed this back and try to improve on this.
When I have concerns I let me management know and this is sorted.
Thank you, I will pass the message to the staff. We appreciate this.
In addition, communication is always at a high standard. For example in the evening handovers are always given in full detail which is what I appreciate the most!
Overall, this is a trustworthy nursery that always goes the extra mile to ensure that all children are getting the most out of their learning and play.
Thank you for the review, we appreciate your kind words.
I have seen improvements in my child after enrolling in this daycare. Rooms are spacious and have a decent number of kids and they are not too congested. Wonderful staff. Good facilities. I would recommend this daycare.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review.
My son has been attending Yellow Penguin Nursery since August 2022 after we relocated to Birmingham. I was nervous that it would be a big transition and he would not like it, but the Yellow Penguin team were excellent in making the transition easy and my son settled in really fast. He loves attending and has developed good attachment to the practitioners and has made lots of friends with his peers. The focus on preschool education is great and my son is developing all the core skills he needs for starting school in September. The food is nutritious and tasty, my son always tells us that the food at nursery is great. They have fun days in which they have fancy dress competitions and they have lots of activities for the kids. The safeguarding is good, the building is modern and safe, the fees are reasonable, communication between staff and parents is good. I genuinely can't think of anything bad to say about Yellow Penguin. I encourage parents looking for a new nursery to see for themselves.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback, Francesca.
He has come on leaps and bounds since starting. His speech has improved and his even eating new foods. The staff is great with him and he would happily stay overnight if he could.
Could not ask for a better establishment. Glad we managed to secure a place.
Now my daughter goes in running as soon as she sees the nursery and she loves all the staff. She always has a smile on her face as soon as she sees any of them, especially her key worker.
I highly recommend this nursery. The improvement in my daughter is amazing. For a central Birmingham based nursery, the cost is very reasonable and you won't get anything cheaper for the level and quality of this nursery in Birmingham.
My son loves coming to this nursery! All staff members are so lovely and are amazing with the kids. It's a very nice environment and staff communicate effectively on how my son's day has been. He has learned so much and developed his social skills since attending the nursery. It puts my mind at ease whilst at work knowing that my son is being looked after by great staff and I know he is in safe hands. I always pick him up with a big smile on his face and great feedback. 100% recommend this nursery!
My daughter has been attending Yellow Penguin since August 2018 when she was just 7.5 months old. I was very apprehensive about leaving her but the staff at Yellow Penguin ensured she settled in well. We have seen a lot of positive changes in the last couple of months with staff receiving excellent training and the baby room being equipped with lots of new sensory and learning aids. My daughter is excited at every drop off to see her key worker. The staff always inform me of her day and what she has eaten, which is always good balanced food. I would definitely recommend yellow penguin as the staff truly care about the children and parents alike.
Yellow Penguin has given me a huge peace of mind when it comes to my child care needs. My child has come out of her shell since attending the nursery thanks to the staff and management team. Excellent service. 10/10.
I was worried when my son first started but he has adapted so well. I can’t thank the nursery enough.
