Habla Day Nursery

My daughter has attended Habla Day Nursery since September 2020 and will soon be leaving to start primary school. This is a fantastic nursery with a dedicated team. My daughter is happy, confident, and ready for big school thanks to the team. The nursery provides a safe and enriching environment and has even acquired an allotment where the children get stuck in. I will miss Habla and will always be grateful for the great care and affection shown to my daughter during her time there.

Excellent teachers and a very safe and secure nursery. All the children seem very happy when I drop off and pick up. The daily progress reports are very good and informative, keeping me up to speed with my son's progress. My son seems genuinely happy to be at Habla Day Nursery and his speech, counting and colour identifying has come on massively this year!

The staff at Habla Day Nursery go above and beyond for the children to make every day exciting and full of new educational activities. The team are very welcoming and will always keep parents updated on their children's progress. The opportunity to raise my child to be bilingual and have this skill for life is extremely important to us and we love Habla Day Nursery!

Our son has attended Habla Day Nursery since August last year, this was scheduled to begin in April but was delayed due to Covid-19. My dealings with the management and staff regarding this change and their management of the nursery during extremely difficult times, was fantastic. I have never been concerned regarding his attendance, or his health and welfare. He looks forward to nursery each of the three days a week that he attends. We tell him where he is going and he runs to our front door giving us a wave. When we collect him, he always has a smile on his face and is usually absolutely exhausted from the days activities. He has, as children do, had a couple of falls and been ill and this care and communication from the staff is superb. We are delighted with his development and the feedback we get from all the staff. I have found them to be very understanding and flexible when we ask for a change of day or additional days care. I would strongly recommend this nursery to other parents without hesitation.

We are extremely happy with the centre and the staff. They are excellent with our son, they always have a smile on their faces when the welcome him in the morning and he always comes out of the nursery with a smile on his face.

My little boy didn’t attend nursery and was looked after by family until he turned 3. I was worried about how he would transition to be with other people and when I looked around Habla I instantly felt it was much more of a family atmosphere which I loved. My son has now been there for 7 months and we could not be happier with how well cared for he is and how the staff take such an interest in him. I also have a 1-year-old daughter who attends once and week and she is not very good with people she doesn’t know but the staff are so lovely and caring that I know I don’t need to worry at all while she is there. I cannot recommend Habla enough!

My little boy hurt himself bouncing on his trampoline at home and was in a full leg cast. The staff at Habla Day Nursery could not have done enough for him, they set up a zoom call with his friends and everyone drew him a picture which was dropped round to our house. They really went above and beyond to make a little boy really happy. So happy we chose this nursery and would recommend it to anyone.

This is a fantastic nursery. My son has been attending since he was a year old. He loves his Habla Day Nursery family and all the staff are very friendly. His speech and confidence has grown so much since he has been attending. They learn something new every day and they get to play outside in all weathers which he loves! He’s always so excited to go and when I pick him up at the end of the day he always has a beaming smile so I know he’s enjoyed his day.

Lovely staff and management. Not one complaint.

Practically the wider staff are extremely helpful with scheduling attendance days, being flexible, communicating openly and regularly and are happy to attend to any query.

We are so happy with Habla. Our son has been going to this nursery since he was 10 months old, he is now 2 1/2. All the staff are fantastic and show a real interest in the children and their development. The staff inform us that our son can understand fully Spanish and can now speak/repeat Spanish words and phrases. During the coronavirus lockdowns the nursery have been fantastic, they accommodated us where possible due to us being key workers and when they were closed sent regular emails of activities/books to read with the children. We receive a daily email to inform us what our son has done in nursery that day which is lovely. I love seeing the photos put on the Habla social media so see our son getting involved with activities and playing outside. The nursery focus on the individual child, let them nap when they want to nap rather than set times like other nurseries. Recently staff continued to potty train my son how I had at home. I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

Our daughter started coming to nursery when she was almost a year old, she is now two and is so excited when we drop her off - a testament to the wonderful, friendly and dedicated staff. One thing I love about this nursery is that it has a very safe, relaxed, happy and homely feel, and the manager and staff are very good at communicating important info and letting us know what our child has been doing/learning/eating each day. There is s lovely outdoor play area with lots of fun and natural things to play with. The nursery has also offered adult Spanish classes in the evening, which enable parents to support their child's learning. Throughout the challenges of the lockdown, the manager and staff kept in contact with us sending us ideas for activities and books to read and a daily video call was available so the children could stay connected to nursery and their friends. I would highly recommend this nursery and the benefits of learning a second language from a very early age.

Starting our son in the nursery during COVID was daunting, but from the very first moment, we were introduced to the staff at Habla and our decision was easy to make. He absolutely loves Habla and his teachers and he always waits in anticipation for the door to open and has a big smile on his face once he sees his teacher. There is no better indicator that he enjoys himself and feels so comfortable in Habla’s care. The attention given is second to none, and I really wouldn’t want to put my son anywhere else. We just love being part of the Habla family.

Our son has been at Habla since January 2019. He was settled in well and really seems happy to go in each morning. His speech has really come on and at 18 months can count and say many words. The staff are very friendly and the added bonus of learning Spanish is great for our son and even our older daughter too, even though she does not attend. The setting is relaxed and safe. Only negative right now would be that we do not get lots of stuff sent home. It would be nice to get more. Overall, I'd definitely recommend.

My daughter leaves nursery every day happy and fulfilled and we will miss it so much when she leaves for full-time school, but are so happy we can continue with Spanish as it has given her a fantastic opportunity in life.

It has been lovely to see his social skills develop and hearing some Spanish words as he learns to talk has been an added bonus.

The bilingual aspect has been great and my daughter enjoys all the Spanish songs.

Fantastic experience so far.

Thank you.

Great staff and great environment 2nd baby starting soon.
