Review from Bill D (Father of Child) published on 19 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

All staff are polite and very friendly towards all children. Since my daughter started 2 months ago we have seen massive progress in her speech and in the variety of food she eats. All information about their day is clearly stated on the app and staff still have clear knowledge about the children's day. Overall we are very pleased with the care our daughter receives i feel really comfortable with taking my daughter there and i love seeing her smiles when she sees any member of staff . Thank you to all the staff at Family Tree you guys do an amazing job.

Overall Experience

Both of my children have attended Family Tree Nursery, five years apart and they have loved their time there. They have always come home happy, well fed and having learnt something new. The staff are always very caring, thoughtful and clearly create a warm and loving environment. I am always impressed about the range of activities that the staff do with the children and the thought and effort that goes into these. I would highly recommend this nursery.

Review from Dania S (Mother of Child) published on 13 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both my boys have attended this nursery for over a year. I was extremely nervous to begin with as I find it difficult to trust other adults with my children.

They were extremely supportive and positive from the get go. My boys look forward to attending and always leave with a smile on their faces. I feel that my boys are very well looked after and are safe within the nursery.

They are supported with their speech and for any needs such as my little one being late with walking.

Honestly, I cannot express how much I recommend the nursery and how grateful I am for their hard work. If you're anxious about leaving your child with a nursery, this is the place to go. I now look forward to sending them in as I know they put their hearts and souls to our little ones.

Amazing nursery and such amazing staff - thank you

Review from H M (Mother of Child) published on 8 May 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My daughter absolutely loves attending this nursery, which says everything. As someone who works in a school, I have a real appreciation for how hard the staff work, and it truly shows here.
They know my child so well and care for her as an individual, which gives me great peace of mind as a parent.
Communication is fantastic across the whole team-from the manager to the day staff and her key workers-and we always feel informed and involved.
She's always well fed, engaged in a wide range of stimulating activities, and comes home happy after fun-filled days.

Most importantly, she is clearly loved and well looked after, which means the world to us.

Review from Tatyana T (Mother of Child) published on 16 January 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our baby has been at Family Tree Day Nursery for 8 months and it has truly been such a special chapter in our lives. From the very beginning, the staff created a warm, loving environment where our little one felt safe, happy, and cared for.

They go above and beyond to cater to the needs of small children, making every day fun and full of learning. Some of our most cherished memories happened here-our baby started walking at the nursery! She loved the playtime, the singing sessions, and all the joyful activities. What touched us most was the beautiful bond she formed with her teacher. It meant so much to see them excited to go in every morning, greeted with smiles and hugs.

Leaving was one of the hardest decisions we've had to make, and the only reason we did was because we moved out of the country. If we could have stayed, we absolutely would have. This nursery will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we cannot recommend it enough to any parent.

Great Nursery. Both my older son and daughter attended and they always left happy with good food options and lovely staff. Would recommend to anyone. Both of my children have started their school journey with an advantage over the rest from everything they have learned here.

Review from L C (Mother of Child) published on 20 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Family Tree Nursery has looked after my son since he was 6 months old. He leaves them this year to start primary school. Each day he comes home happy, and well-fed. The menu they offer is extensive with lots of healthy meals throughout the day. He has made some really lovely friends and he seems content and has learnt so much through them. His social skills- sharing, communication, and independence have soared since starting. He gets to be outdoors and physical daily (which he absolutely needs!) They also have lots of lovely additions including a music person, a sports coach and more recently a forest school session. We join in on sports days and at Christmas concerts. It has been a pleasure to work alongside Family Tree staff- all of whom are pleasant. We also get a really thorough update when picking our son up about what he ate, and what he played. He comes home with lots of creative achievements that he has made throughout the day. I would recommend this nursery to anybody. Thank you

Very helpful. My son has learnt so much being here. They care about all of his needs, as I would hope. My son is always excited to come here, which is reassuring as a mother. Would recommend it to others, and was recommended by a friend of mine. Very happy and would like to thank all the staff for what they do.

Family Tree Day Nursery has been an amazing experience for my son, with a real family feel from staff. We have seen great development in all aspects of our son’s learning: physical, educational, and emotional.
This nursery have been so supportive and give us confidence that our son is well looked after from the moment he is dropped off to the moment he is picked up.

We will be forever grateful for their care.

Review from Kay P (Mother of Child) published on 28 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Family Tree Day Nursery have had hands in catering to 3 of my children since 2018. My two daughters both 5 and 4 were looked after by caring staff at the nursery from 9 and 7 months old until primary school age. Currently, they accommodate my 10-month-old son. I cannot fault the nursery at all. They are extremely accommodating to both the children’s and parental needs, and the focus on developing milestones throughout growth from baby, toddler to primary school age is commendable. I have happy children thanks to the cheerful environment and warm-hearted staff at the Family Tree Nursery.

Review from Okiemute E (Mother of Child) published on 14 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Family Tree Nursery is designed with children's needs and interests in mind. The vibrant and colorful surroundings coupled with the welcoming staff create an inviting atmosphere that immediately puts children at ease. The cheerful and nurturing environment fosters a sense of security and joy, allowing them to explore, learn, and grow at their own pace.
As a parent, it brings me immense joy to see my child excited to go to nursery every day. Family Tree Nursery has become a second home for my little one, providing a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment.

I wholeheartedly recommend Family Tree Nursery to any parent seeking a holistic and enriching experience for their child.

Review from A P (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

Our daughter started attending when she was 21 months old. She settled quickly and likes coming to nursery. She didn't speak English at the time she started, but the staff did everything they could to help her; they learnt keywords in her mother tongue to help her. She picked up English very quickly and caught up with her peers in a few months. She is learning and developing very quickly and built strong relationships with staff members and children alike. She loves the food. I am confident she is safe and happy.

Review from M J (Mother of Child) published on 8 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Family Tree Nursery has been amazing! After deciding to go back to work after maternity leave I was very apprehensive about leaving my baby as many mums are however the staff were friendly and reassuring even when I bugged them during the day for updates. They went above and beyond with their care and education, and not to big my own kid up too much but they turned out smart (maths at 4 is mind blowing) and inquisitive (literally has questions about everything) and that is majorly because of nursery and the staff he spends 5 days a week with. It's a relief to me knowing that my child is happy and well taken care of while I'm working. 3 years on and he has gone from baby room to being days away from going to big school. I just hope my child looks forward to going every morning to their new school like they do at Family Tree. Very grateful to everyone who helped my child through his first educational adventure.

Review from Ayisha O (Mother of Child) published on 5 April 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My child joined the nursery on the fourth of January 2021 and to date I’ve watched her learning and development grow in leaps and bounds. So glad I chose such an attentive, skilled and creative space for her to start her early learning. They truly carry parents and guardians along on their children’s journey through daily feedback loops, weekly newsletters and progress photos on the child’s portal account. Very excited to see where my child’s early development journey will take her in the coming months. She’s constantly using new words, open to all foods, games and knows more nursery rhymes than I could ever have taught her! Fantastic job.

My daughters have attended the nursery since January 2018 and they have progressed massively, academically and socially.
All staff are friendly and welcoming. I feel reassured leaving my children with them. Meals are varied and healthy and always well received by my daughters.
Can't wait for forest school!

Very happy about the new uniform option too.

My daughter has attended since she was 18 months. I am a bit of a worrier and the nursery has always put me at ease when I have phoned and emailed.
My daughter loves her time here, with the games, learning, creative crafts and friends she's made.

I couldn't rate her nursery and staff taking care of her highly enough. They are helpful in every way.
