Review from Lyndsey T (Mother of Child) published on 24 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both of our girls are well cared for. They’re always excited to tell us about the fun they’ve had each day and equally as excited to see their teachers each morning. The staff are always kind and welcoming and always keep us up to date with information. They regularly post online what kinds of activities the children are doing as well as regularly updating the individual profiles of the children on the app, which is fantastic to see over time. Can’t recommend this nursery enough; the provision is fantastic, and the children have nothing but good things to say, as well as us parents!

Overall Experience

My son has been coming here since the age of 11-months-old. He absolutely loves Sunnydale and all the staff and always comes home with mucky knees, so I know he’s had so much fun! I wanted a nursery that is close to home but also that do a lot of outdoor activities, so them being part of forest schools is what drew me to them, and it’s the best decision I made!

Overall Experience

My son has been going to Sunnydale Nursery since he was 9-months-old. He loves every second and runs inside each morning to see what games and tasks have been set up ready for the day ahead. He has progressed through the baby room, toddler room and has just started in preschool. He loves all the staff and talks about them when he’s at home too, like friends. Brilliant nursery, and highly recommend.

Review from Ashley L (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My youngest has attended Sunnydale for around 4-months now, and she absolutely loves it! Being born in a pandemic, I’ve struggled a lot with her interacting etc, and this nursery has really brought the best out in her. She only attends for one session a week, and the changes made to her have been incredible. My eldest went here before full-time school, and still attends the shack on a Wednesday, and she loves it! Even more so now they offer a fitness box for the older kids, it’s so much fun for them all, and she has always loved this nursery! They do lots outdoors and have a lot of equipment recycled, I absolutely love that! And so do all the kids! They do day trips regular and treat all the children the same. Always there if I need a chat about any of my two, and I couldn’t see my children going anywhere else, to be honest! Love it! Highly recommend it to anyone!

Overall Experience

Great place for my two girls. They love the setting and we were really keen to have them go somewhere they could spend a lot of time outdoors and with the ducklings and being situated next to a farm; you can’t ask for much more. The guys working here do a great job and support the girls really well, and they like to fill the days with exciting new activities and adventures.

Overall Experience
Brilliant nursery. My son is always happy to go and always comes out happy at the end of the day! The nursery keeps you up to date with their development and progress. They add photos to their app so you can see what your child has been doing. The staff are always helpful and will chat with you about what’s been going on that day.

Would recommend to anyone.

Review from Karis C (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My children have been coming to Sunnydale since pre-school and are now in the shack. I can’t express how much they enjoy coming and how the staff look after them like they are their own.
The management is brilliant, any queries they sort out straight away.
The activities they have available during the school holidays are varied, and my children never come home and say they’ve had a bad day or they’ve been bored.

I would 100% recommend to fellow parents.

Review from Laura M (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I couldn’t be happier with my choice of nursery.
Having never used a day nursery before, and with my child only being 9-months-old, I was anxious about a number of things.
The staff have made the transition so easy and made me feel so reassured. They always have time to discuss my child’s day, and communication throughout the day is excellent when necessary.

He is happy and relaxed at nursery, and the care he receives is second to none.

Both my children attend Sunnydale Nursery. It is an excellent facility, with great surroundings and lovely staff. The communication is fantastic, and I feel very confident leaving my children with the caring staff. Both my children absolutely love attending nursery.

Review from C E (Mother of Child) published on 23 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Sunnydale is a lovely nursery, and my little one has been with them since she was a baby and has gone through almost all of the rooms (just not the shack.) All of the staff are so friendly and approachable and genuinely look like they love their job and the children they work with. My little one loves going to nursery and tells me all about the lovely things she does, and it’s clear she learns so much from nursery and often surprises me with what she has learnt.

I've recommended the nursery to friends and family and will continue to do so.

My daughter has been coming to Sunnydale since she was 3-months-old and feels completely comfortable around all the staff. We get constant updates on her development and how she is doing day-to-day. Would not recommend Sunnydale enough!

Overall Experience

My son loves going to Sunnydale Nursery. He’s 21-months-old. At first, he was a little unsure (he’s only ever been with me), however, the very approachable staff there took this into consideration along with his individual needs and now he wakes up excited to go! My little shadow loves to wave bye to me at the door! This is very reassuring! The ladies are lovely there. Would definitely recommend it!

We are so happy to have found Sunnydale Nursery. All the staff are friendly and welcoming and we love the child-centred approach.

Our little boy loves attending and he is always excited to tell us about his day - he especially loves the outdoor learning environment!

Review from L B (Mother of Child) published on 10 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my girls have been at Sunnydale Nursery and I cannot find a fault at any of the staff or the nursery. Everyone is kind, caring and welcoming. My eldest who has been at Sunnydale Nursery absolutely loved her time there and she often talks about her time at nursery, she misses all the staff. My youngest also absolutely loves nursery, she's so excited in a morning to get her clothes on and go. My youngest daughter is really shy and wasn't sure at first. She has two favourite staff members at preschool. I cannot thank Sunnydale Nursery enough for how they have helped my daughter in her social skills and her confidence. I had a small issue with hours and the manager kindly swapped my daughter to mornings and I cannot thank her enough. I think the hardest part of being a parent is trusting strangers to care for your child in a nursery setting. I would highly recommend Sunnydale Nursery! The care and love that they give is second to none and I'm so so grateful to them all, I know my daughter will miss everyone, so will I.

Review from Jorden W (Mother of Child) published on 10 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

A lot of family and friends recommended Sunnydale Nursey to me, so I thought I would go and view the place and see what it was like. My little boy absolutely loved it on our first visit, he didn't want to come home and looked very happy to be there. I also love the location of the nursery, out of the way and with lots of field behind them, which the children go out and explore! That's another reason why I chose this nursery; most activities are outdoors, and my little boy loves to be outside playing and exploring! The only thing that is a pain is going down the lane to the nursery, there are a lot of potholes, which is not great for the car! So it's best to leave your car down the street, but apart from that, I can't say a bad word about this nursery. I would highly recommend!

Reply from Gemma Bull, Owner/Manager at Sunnydale Nursery

Thank you for your feedback, Jorden. Unfortunately, as we do not own the road, and despite several conversations; the road is a public bridle path, and they will not maintain it.

Overall Experience

I would recommend the nursery to anybody looking for one for their child, my little girl went when she was five months old and I was so nervous to leave her there but it was the best thing I could of done for her! She absolutely loves it, she always arrives with a smile as soon as she sees the nursery or any of the staff members. All of the staff members are brilliant and couldn’t ask for anything more, my daughter has so much fun which I see from the photos taken and the smile on her face when I pick her up.

Review from Josh H (Father of Child) published on 5 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little boy currently attends the nursery; he started in 2019 coming from a different setting, which did not cater for his extra needs. He was always upset going there, but since moving him to Sunny Dale, he has come on leaps and bounds. His first day leaving him was a dream; he went straight in greeted by the staff, and he always smiles when they answer the door. He goes in happy, and he has never come back home unhappy after being at nursery. I can’t thank the staff enough for the help and support with him, going above and beyond to help, and nothing is too much to ask of them.

Review from Lucy S (Mother of Child) published on 5 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son attends during the school holidays. I’m never forgotten when it comes to Facebook reminders about The Shack and during the lockdown, I was included when querying opening for the children. I can’t recommend the ladies at the nursery enough! They are always so kind and happy when seeing them. I never feel anxious to leave my son, after such a long time away from the nursery! It’s like he’s been going regularly! He always comes home happy, with lots of stories of his day, and the girls always wave me off telling me to have a good day! The emails/post are always informative and relevant when tagged. Well worth the pennies spent to send him to Sunnydale.
