Review from Samantha S (Mother of Child) published on 11 July 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I have two sons that joined Just Imagine Day Nursery - Canvey Island around a month ago. My youngest son has suspected autism, he first went to a different nursery (again for around a month) and had no success there. Since joining Just Imagine both my children go in smiling and come home smiling. All
the teams have been amazing, not only with the boys but also with me as a parent. I couldn’t recommend this nursery enough, especially for special educational needs children. We are a month in and I already feel at such ease with everything! Thank you to everyone at Just Imagine and a special thank you to the staff for their help settling both the boys.

We are so glad you are feeling at ease and are so proud of how well the boys are doing!

All the staff at Just Imagine Day Nursery are amazing. I was very apprehensive about sending my son to the nursery considering he had language barriers and he was timid. I had a discussion with the manager there about how they would help him settle in and they offered help and practical solutions every
step of the way. Within a few months, I noticed a considerable difference in his speaking ability, confidence and overall behaviour. My son enjoyed being there, took part in the varied activities and made some good friends.
The vibe of this nursery is very warm and welcoming and the staff there would always make sure that any issues or concerns that parents have are addressed in a prompt and proper manner. Whenever I asked them for any extra support, they would listen carefully to my concerns and always be more than happy to help. It would not be wrong to say that this nursery has played a major role in making my child school ready. I cannot recommend them enough to any anxious parents.

I was very nervous to return to work after maternity leave and especially about leaving my little one for any period of time but I want to thank the manager and the rest of the team for being so fantastically kind, supportive and flexible. My little one absolutely loves it there and all of the staff
have been so warm and welcoming it's been a much smoother process than I imagined. I love the wide range of activities my child has had the opportunity to take part in and really enjoy receiving photo updates each day. The nursery itself is a very bright, clean and happy environment with plenty of opportunities for little ones to explore and lots of natural toys and objects to pique their curiosity. I would recommend this nursery to any parent - especially Mum's who are nervous about returning to work as they definitely made a scary situation much less so!

As a SEN parent, I can’t praise this nursery enough. My son is always happy to attend and loves it here. The updates are amazing, and the staff are a credit to them. Always so helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

Review from Chelsea C (Mother of Child) published on 2 August 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Just Imagine Day Nursery in my opinion is by far the best nursery there is on the island. Every single staff member are so so lovely and helpful. The nursery is always doing fun activities and days for the children like an end-of-term summer party, all the children loved it and it was clear to see how
much effort they put into the day to make it special for the children and it definitely paid off. My little girl has been attending since January and just within 6/7 months she’s massively progressed she’s gone from a very shy timid little girl into a happy, outgoing, cheeky, and very clever little lady who interacts with children when before starting she never would. She loves going to nursery and is so confident with all the staff and always runs straight in. I’ve seen such a difference she’s so much more chatty and her learning skills have really developed. I’ve never had any problems with the nursery and do think there the best!

Our little boy has special needs. This nursery is wonderful. Their SEN knowledge and enthusiasm is incredible. Our son is non-verbal but we can tell he is very happy here. The staff and management are so kind and nothing is ever a problem. I would highly recommend this nursery. Our daughter will also
attend here. It’s twenty minutes away but worth the journey.

My little boy has been attending this nursery since he was one and he is now two and a half (my older boy, now at school, also attended for a year). Both boys settled straight away, and love the staff. The nursery is a vibrant and interesting setting with various different activities, lots of garden
time and also they go out to local places like the beach, park and lake. I love the app that shows food, nappies, activities or photos of the day. My boy has come on leaps and bounds with his speech. The manager and owner are very approachable and take on board parents' views and ideas which is hard to come by these days. All staff members are lovely and easy to talk to just like a friend, this is what makes this nursery. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a home from home setting with staff that care about the children rather than just being a number.

My oldest boy attended the nursery from 18-months till he started school this year, and my youngest now attends. We can't recommend this nursery and all its staff highly enough. So friendly and their SEN knowledge is excellent. Really supportive and has its own sensory room. We will be using their holiday
club frequently during half term too.

Myself and my husband found it really difficult to find a nursery that we were both entirely happy with, that was until we visited Just Imagine Day Nursery - Canvey. The nursery has an amazing balance of natural and man-made resources as well as adult-led activities and child-focused ones. The children's
care is equally important to their learning which is evident as my little boy settled within a few sessions and now he talks about all his teachers and days adventures at home. The Parent Portal app is fantastic as I can see what my son has done through the day, what he has eaten and when he has slept, and even when I call upon my lunch break they are always so accomodating speaking to me even if they are busy. The staff are so patient and offer support and guidance when needed. My son's only been attending for a short time and has already grown in confidence and learns new things every day. Thank you to the team.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son has been going to Just Imagine Day Nursery for almost 3 years and he absolutely loves going and all of the staff. Each day he does varied activities and he really likes building toy bricks, reading books, playing in the sandpit or in the soft play. The staff know how much he enjoys a particular
video game series and playing dinosaurs and they have catered activities that suit what he and the other children are interested in. They have a great app to share photos and activities plus what he's eaten each day. I really like it as we sit down at the end of each day and my son tells me about what he's been doing and tells me about the photos. The staff are always friendly and have been helpful if I've ever had questions.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Lovely nursery, very friendly and welcoming and my child loves her teachers. The first thing I loved about the nursery when initially visiting was the garden, the fact they make/ cook the children's meals on-site and fresh each day and the wooden features (toys, furniture etc) made it feel homely and
comfortable.
My child has been attending for over a year and settled in quickly. I catch up with my child's daily activities by checking the app they use, which is informative and updated daily.
The staff are friendly and chatty and happy. Would definitely recommend.

The staff are amazing they have met every need of my child's illnesses with planning and taking care of my child. Beautiful setup every day; staff are brilliant in every way; my child is meeting every milestone and more going to this nursery; I couldn't have picked a better one for my child to go to;
the bond my child has formed with her key person is beyond beautiful and amazing; I trust them with taking care of my child while in the nursery and making sure my child is safe at all times; my child has many different needs and they meet every single one of them; the confidence my child has grown from going to Just Imagine is beyond me, I highly recommend everyone to go here, and I appreciate every one of you that is taking part in teaching my child; thank you so much!
