Banana Moon Day Nursery Chipping Norton

My son loves his nursery, but not as much as I do, he is the best version of himself at Banana Moon Chipping Norton. He asks for second portions of vegetables at nursery! At home, I can’t beg him to touch anything green without it being launched at poor daddy. At nursery, he sits quietly in a circle and plays nicely with the staff, who he loves to learn from. At home, he just likes to party and wrestle his daddy. At nursery, he sleeps on request every day; at home, he’s party mode all day and night. He learns most of the best things he does at Banana Moon. I’m so grateful for them. I wish I got dropped off there each morning.

She’s loved being there so much and her confidence has grown so much since joining and we are so pleased with her progress and how involved the guys at the nursery make us feel.

We cannot recommend Banana Moon more. Our son has been incredibly happy there since he started in January 2023. He transitioned from his previous nursery seamlessly and that is down to the team at Banana Moon. They make a huge fuss of him on arrival, he feels heard, valued and included. He has made lovely friends and is thriving there. I would not hesitate to advise any parent seeking out a nursery in the area to head to Banana Moon. Well done guys - you are doing a fabulous job. Thank you.

Our daughter started back in April at 17 months. She has always loved going to and being at Banana Moon Day Nursery Chipping Norton, she talks about it all the time at home which is a great sign and very comforting for us as parents. The staff have been great, keep us informed daily of what the children have been doing and clearly care about them a lot.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Banana Moon to anyone.

We couldn’t be happier with Banana Moon and can’t recommend them highly enough! My son joined at 13 months and has complex medical needs so I was understandably nervous about the change for him, although the staff were very reassuring and filled me with confidence about how he would be looked after. I am so delighted to say that he adores going to nursery and genuinely gets so much out of it in terms of his development. What makes this nursery so special is the staff: every single staff member is unbelievably kind, thoughtful and welcoming, and I truly feel that they care about the children like they’re their own! All the updates and communication with home are excellent, and it’s so nice to see all the different activities they do every day. Overall the standards for everything they do are so high - it’s inspiring. Thank you, Banana Moon!

I recommend to everyone in need of a nursery!

This is just the most wonderful, wonderful nursery! Our two year old daughter has been there since April and each week her development is coming on leaps and bounds. It’s so clear to us how happy, safe, and stimulated she feels thanks to the caring staff, charming environment, and very thoughtfully considered programme of activities. We had no idea what to expect, as this is our first child, but we have just been consistently delighted by the whole experience as, it seems, has our daughter.

I can't speak highly enough of Banana Moon Day Nursery. They truly care for the children who attend and my daughter adores going. I'm going to be bereft when the time comes for her to leave and go to school! For anyone unsure whether or not to sign their child up... Do it!

Banana Moon, Chipping Norton is a fantastic nursery. The staff are extremely kind, caring and fun! We could not have asked for a better nursery for our daughter, she is so happy and loves going to nursery. From the first day, the team have reassured me totally as a parent and our daughter settled so quickly. The development we see in our daughter week to week is amazing and she learns so much through the nursery. Our daughter also adores the food and the menu from week to week is so healthy and varied.

Our little boy joined in Oct when he was 16 months old. As a first-time Mum, I was really nervous about my son starting nursery, but Banana Moon was incredibly understanding and very good at talking things through and giving me plenty of reassurances. They shared lots of feedback during the day whilst my son was settling in - exactly what I needed to feel confident he was being well taken care of, and if he was having a tough day they would let me know and we would decide together what to do. Three months in he is having a wonderful time and as parents, we are thrilled that we found the right nursery. He’s always babbling away in the car on the way home so I know he’s having a great time and he’s learning new words and new dance moves every week! Love the daily diary reports and pictures that come through at the end of the day, always a highlight of our evening. Would fully recommend Banana Moon Chipping Norton!

We're so pleased we chose Banana Moon and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. They really have been brilliant and we're so grateful.

The different types of play they do are fantastic, it’s always fun seeing what they’ve been up to that day on the blossom app. The food is also amazing, there is a real variety and my daughter finishes every meal! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Banana Moon to anyone.

We couldn’t be happier with Banana Moon! My son immediately settled straight in and the staff were so welcoming! Each member of staff seems to really understand each individual's needs and it’s so lovely to discuss my sons day with them and have them really notice his little personality developing just like we would at home! The Banana Moon app is also amazing and so nice to feel connected to what my son has been doing each day! I cannot recommend it enough!

My son joined Banana Moon when he turned 3 years old in March last year. He loves going to nursery. The teachers are kind, patient, friendly and have so many wonderful and creative ideas of ways to help the children learn and enjoy playing and socialising. There is such a fun, happy atmosphere and my son is always coming home demonstrating new skills he has learnt there. The teachers provide a daily diary and plenty of feedback at pickup too. They are always happy to answer questions and help with anything that your child needs. Would highly recommend.

I would definitely recommend Banana Moon!

Our daughter has been going to Banana Moon for over a year now. From the baby room and now into mini moons. Everyone at the nursery have been great for our daughters development. She loves the nursery and the staff have been absolutely faultless and do such a fantastic job.

Our daughter started at Banana Moon in January when she was almost 6 months and we have been beyond impressed with the care she has received! They have helped her through the weaning process and she has learnt so many new skills thanks to the kind and attentive staff looking after her. Every day when we drop her off and pick her up she is happy and smiling, which is the most reassuring sign as a parent. We love receiving the daily updates and are always very impressed with the wide variety of educational (and messy!) activities the staff do with the children every day. We would definitely recommend this nursery.

My son started day nursery in September 2020 when he was 9 months old and is absolutely thriving. He has a fantastic relationship with his key person and room leader. All the staff at Banana Moon are so accommodating and they are an extension of a family. He literally can’t get out of the car quick enough to run in now he can walk. December was a tricky time for us as he was very poorly then we had Christmas and then nursery shut for a week due to Covid and the team were so patient in helping him to transition into nursery life again. We’d love to send our son more to nursery as being a first-time mum I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about working more than I currently do. Unfortunately, we can increase his hours until January 2021, this is a real testament of how good a job these guys are doing.

Meals are great! Staff are wonderful. All round, positive and happy experience for my children but also makes us feel very happy and content as new parents.

I can't tell you enough how amazing I think this nursery is. My eldest son went to a different nursery but for my youngest we drive the journey to Banana Moon. Whilst the building, cleanliness, garden etc. are all fantastic I think that it's the team here that really make it so great. They all just go the extra mile and really care. My son has been there from age 1 (now 3) and has progressed really well, I'm totally confident that as he moves to the full moons room that they will prepare him even further for his start in school. I'm only sad that one day we'll have to leave!
