I cannot praise them highly enough.
Thank you for your very supportive review which has been shared with the team. Your son is thriving with us and we'll be very sad to lose him when he goes to 'big school'. You'll remain a part of our family and we know that you'll visit us and keep us updated on his progress. Dinosaurs Rule!
My little boy has been at Mill House for 6 months now and he loves it. He gets so excited to see the managers every morning and comes home thoroughly exhausted from a day of play. A really lovely, family-run nursery with genuine care and love for the children there.
Thank you for your positive feedback. We know how much your little one loves coming to nursery. He has made some very special friends and when they arrive together holding hands you can see that these are friendships that will last the duration of their time at nursery and perhaps even longer!
My daughter loves coming to nursery since being moved here and always comes out excited by the things she has been up to and learnt during the day.
The nursery offers a good variety of foods for the children and will encourage children to try new things.
Every morning and afternoon you will see management at the door to meet parents, there is also always a member of management in the room helping clear up and meet the children's needs.
The nursery is always clean and has a happy environment for all children.
Thank you for your review, thank you also for the positive feedback you provide when you drop off and collect your daughter. She really has settled well into Mill House and she has made some lovely friendships. We look forward to supporting her with the next stage of her development in preparation for 'big school'!
The staff are so good with the children he always has a big smile on his face at the end of the day so I know he is well looked after.
The food they provide is also varied and balanced. It's great to see the nursery adding features for the kids all the time too!
Thank you! We are so pleased that the features we continue to add stimulate your son so much, he really does enjoy the new patio and water feature which he explores so thoroughly with his friends. His development has come on in leaps and bounds and his new passion for books is great to observe. He...
The nursery has a beautiful, large garden with lots of grass and decking. Outside is great for kids well being, it has sand and water play and including area for climbing and riding. My son climbs on anything and everything for fun. The nursery purchased an indoor climbing frame to suit his personality. The staff go above and beyond to help every individual child's need to help them develop to their best. The fact that he is still there speaks volumes. I am sure he will be there until he attends school. My other son enjoys going with me for the pickup. Highly recommended.
Thank you for your feedback which I have passed onto the team and which has been gratefully received by the whole team. We did indeed install a climbing frame in both the baby room and in the toddler room for your little one as climbing is your child's passion, he has a real skill for this and we...
Our daughter (16 months) is so happy at this nursery and I love that she gets excited as we pull up outside! At first, I was anxious to send my first child to a nursery at 12 months, but after 2 days of my daughter attending, she was calm and happy to be there. All staff are excellent, professional and so kind to all children and parents. I am so happy I chose Mill House Day Nursery and would highly recommend it. Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely feedback and for your very positive comments. Your little one is very settled in Mill House, we are loving all the new words she is using and how she tries so hard to copy language she hears in the baby room. She's such a delight to have and we are so pleased that you chose Mill House. We are looking forward to supporting her transition to the Toddler Room!
This is an excellent nursery. Since my daughter moved in here, her speech, her behaviour, overall her skills have improved on a large scale. She is very happy and content. Very well looked after. I do not have much to point down on this nursery but like everywhere there is always room for improvement. I would just recommend to them to be more attentive to runny and dirty noses.
My daughter is 2, she loves going to the nursery and gets to do many things such as cooking, painting etc.
I have seen most of the nurseries within the area and feel that Mill House is the best of them all.
Thank you for your feedback which has been passed onto our team. Your supportive comments will enable us to develop our services. Thank you again.
Very very lovely nursery. It's had such a positive impact on my son he loves it there. As well as the staff who are approachable and friendly, they have helped my son grow and learn so far so good.
Thank you for your lovely comments which will be passed onto the team. We do pride ourselves in our nursery and we really appreciate feedback that supports our efforts. Thank you again.
Best nursery in the area by far. Warm and welcoming. Clean and organised. Well trained and qualified staff. Efficiently run by a brilliant management team. Approachable. Fantastic activities and events. Lovely families. My child settled well and enjoys going in!
Thank you for your valuable comments. I have passed these onto the team together with other reviews received and they are thrilled by the responses. Thank you again!
This is a fantastic nursery with wonderful staff providing a safe, inclusive and happy environment for the children in their care. I visited the nursery before it was even opened. I was so excited about the setting and the owner's vision for the nursery that I brought forward my son's start date by 4 months! The outside space is excellent and the rooms are clean, spacious, well thought out and interesting for the children. My son settled in very well indeed and nothing has been too much trouble. He literally jumps for joy when he wakes up on nursery days and doesn't want to leave. We have felt very comfortable leaving our son here and feel certain that the staff will continue to look after his welfare and education to a very high standard.
Thank you for such a positive and supportive review. I have passed your comments onto the team together with other reviews received and they are genuinely pleased that their work has been recognised as being of such a high standard. Thank you for taking the time to review our service.
The amazing staff at this nursery went over and above and beyond to support my very clingy and anxious son to settle. They really worked with me and my husband to ensure that the transition to nursery was as smooth as possible. The food at the setting is all made fresh daily and there is always a wealth of activities to do. The nursery has a real homely feel which I love. I couldn't recommend this nursery highly enough.
Thank you for such a supportive review. We worked well as a nursery/parent partnership; the support and encouragement you have given us throughout the transition period was invaluable. To see a little one go from being so unsettled to being so confident has been a journey we will never forget! Thank you again.
The nursery is clean and well equipped and has a large garden for the children to play.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to others.
Thank you for your valuable comments. We have enjoyed being a part of your little one's first nursery experience and we are so pleased that the transition went so well. Your comments have been passed onto the team which they have received with great pleasure!
This nursery is a life saver, after searching for a place in other nurseries, I came across Mill House and my little one has been so happy since she started here. The staff are very friendly and the management very helpful. I will definitely recommend this nursery.
Thank you for your great review which has been passed onto the team. We are very grateful that you have shared your positive experience and that you feel happy to recommend our service. Thank you again!
It's great to be welcomed with a smile from everyone that works at the nursery, nothing is ever a problem and they genuinely care for the little ones. My son's development in the past three months has been immense, this genuinely reassures us he is learning a lot and is well looked after.
Thank you for such a positive review which will be passed onto the team. I know that receiving such positive feedback will put even bigger smiles on their faces! Thank you again.
There is lots of outdoor space for children to do various daily activities, large garden with slide, playhouse, sand and plenty of room to run free or ride a bike.
All staff are very dedicated and take good care of the children. They provide us with daily updates regarding her meals and activities.
Our daughter started for the first time in a nursery setting and they went above and beyond to make the transition as smooth as possible. 3 weeks after starting, our daughter enjoys her time spent there so much, that she would like to go and have fun with them 7 days a week. This is a true example of their professionalism.
We would highly recommend Mill House Day Nursery to any parent looking to keep their children happy and safe in education.
Thank you very much for your positive review which has been shared with our team. We are so pleased that the transition we planned together, provided such a positive start to nursery life for your daughter and we are excited to be working with her and you during these very important early years. Thank you for choosing our nursery – we love it here too.
