Happy to have my daughter there but some improvements could be made eg a doorbell/camera at the front to notify of parents arrival for pick up and drop off and better communication from management to parents/carers.

I love this nursery, the kids are well-engaged in activities, and they learn things at the same time. It's just difficult to make payments during off-terms, that's the only thing I am struggling with.

Thank you so much for your honest review. It has been a pleasure caring for your children and working in partnership with you and your wife. I wish there was an alternative not to charge parents during non-funded period. But unfortunately there is none at the moment. We need the funds to be able to pay staff wages, annual leave payments, which are a legal requirement and other expenses required to keep the nursery open. The funding from the Government is helps but it does not cover all the immediate cost of running a childcare setting, hence we have to charge parents for those remaining weeks that is not paid by the Government.

My experience with Medua Bilingual Nursery has been excellent. The staff have been very patient, caring and supportive of my son's progress throughout. It had been a difficult adjustment period for my son at the start of his tenure and Medua Bilingual Nursery. I am very thankful of the effort and hard work they have displayed to support my son. My wife and I have been updated of my sons progress every time our son has gained more confidence, knowledge and social skills that is vital of his growth. Thank you so much Medua Bilingual Nursery!

I am incredibly grateful to have found Medua Bilingual Nursery for my children. My 18-month-old son has been attending this nursery for 8 months, following in the footsteps of his brother, who started there at 10 months old and continued until reception class. The care and attention my son receives here is exceptional. The staff are warm, nurturing, and genuinely invested in the well-being, education, and communication of the children. My son always comes home happy and content, which speaks volumes about the environment and the quality of care provided. The facilities are clean, safe, and filled with engaging activities that promote learning and development. My son's progress in his development and socialization is amazing.
I highly recommend Medua Bilingual Nursery to any parent looking for a trustworthy and caring nursery for their little ones.

I couldn't be more happy with the service provided by the manager and her team. They go above and beyond for my two boys and it's truly appreciated. As an example: last summer, she set up sessions on Saturdays to help children with speech difficulties, including the parents in the activities, and made it fun for everybody. By the end of the series, my child's speech had improved tremendously. The kids are also well prepared for reception: my oldest knew all his phonics going out of the nursery and is now an avid reader and is also very good in French and asks about them often. The little ones are also taught the importance of kindness, respect and teamwork. The nursery also organises fun activities such as trips to the sea, amusement parks, the library and swimming.
They also give regular updates on my child's progress and make a work plan with specific milestones to be achieved by the end of a certain period. In short, I am very pleased with Medua and highly recommend them.

I must say, this is the best nursery we have found in our area. The teachers at Medua Bilingual Nursery are outstanding. They genuinely care about the well-being and development of my children in every aspect, from behaviour to academics. The bilingual program has been incredibly beneficial, and I have seen significant progress in my children's language skills and overall growth.
The nurturing environment and dedicated staff make Medua Bilingual Nursery a wonderful place for children to learn and grow. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring, supportive, and effective early childhood education experience.
