Review from Denise S (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The staff are incredibly friendly, nurturing and gentle with the children. They have adorable little walkers, which ensure that the kids can enjoy outings safely and comfortably.
Their communication is also a strong point; the nursery uses an app to send regular updates about the day's activities, making it easy for parents to stay informed. I truly appreciate how they listen to feedback from parents and take action to improve our experience - e.g. they recently made adjustments to provide more parking space during pick-up and drop-off, which has made a big difference.

Most importantly, my daughter always leaves the nursery with a smile, and she frequently shares how much she enjoys her time there and talks positively about the staff. It's reassuring to know that she is in such capable and caring hands. I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and engaging environment for their little ones!

Reply from Lisa Wilson, Nursery Manager at Currie Children's Day Nursery

I will be sure to pass this on to the staff, thank you for all your kind words.

Review from Sarah D (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our son has been at Currie Children's Day Nursery for 18 months and we all love it. The staff are superb and really make an effort to get to know the children even if they are in different rooms themselves. We have really been impressed with the variety of activities, they always seem to be exploring something different. And the regularity of the outings is brilliant, he's been all over and loves getting the bus with his friends. I can't recommend Currie Children's Day Nursery highly enough.

Review from Robyn T (Mother of Child) published on 27 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter has been at Currie Children's Day Nursery since she was 9 months old. She is now nearly 3 and she absolutely loves coming here. We currently have her in three times a week and all of the staff work extremely hard and are just great with the kids. On top of all the hard work they do with the children, they make the utmost effort to keep the parents up to date of the day to day via the app they use. Excellent job!

My daughter has been at Currie Children's Day Nursery since the start of term and has already been to the beach and numerous parks. She loves it there!

Great staff and she is always outside, which she loves. Her eating is good there and happily runs in each day.

We do love to get outdoors, and really value the importance of getting out and exploring our wider environment. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Review from K W (Mother of Child) published on 26 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Both our children are so happy and settled at Currie Children's Day Nursery. The staff go above and beyond to make sure they are safe, understood and have opportunities to thrive. Not just in the playrooms and garden but out on fantastic outings in the community where they are exposed to so many new and exciting things with their friends. Their learning journals show so many interesting and creative tasks and activities and everything is adapted as needed to meet their unique needs. They've both come on so much in nursery and we are so glad we found it.

Review from J J (Mother of Child) published on 26 September 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has recently started here (age 23 months at starting). He had some strong bonds at his old nursery so was a little nervous about moving him but just over a month on and he is pointing and smiling with excitement when we arrive - he even had an excited boogie on the doorstep today. He especially likes the freedom to play in the garden here! Happy we moved him and looking forward to watching his growing bonds with staff and other children!

Reply from Hollie Ramage, Nursery Manager at Currie Children's Day Nursery

We are so glad he is settling so well and with his move down to adventurers, he will have even more chance to be outside which I already know he will love. Thank you for your review.

My child has been at Currie Children's Day Nursery for almost a year now and loves it. The staff are just brilliant with all the kids, and they do loads of activities. They also often take them on trips out which they love. I would really recommend the nursery to anyone.

Review from A M (Mother of Child) published on 28 March 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little one has recently started here, and they have settled him in so well. All the staff always seem so interested in the children’s welfare. I get continuous updates throughout the day about how he is getting on which is so nice after having him at another nursery beforehand with little communication. He has come on so much at home since starting here, I can’t thank the girls enough for making him feel so welcome.

Reply from Lisa Wilson, Nursery Manager at Currie Children's Day Nursery

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. Your child has settled in amazingly well, and we have loved welcoming him into the Currie Children's Day Nursery family.

Review from J W (Mother of Child) published on 28 May 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Our children love their time at Currie Children's Day Nursery. The transition into the baby room and the pre school room was extremely supportive and child led. We really appreciate the regular updates and it's clear the staff really know the children as individuals.
All the staff are so kind and warm we have nothing but praise for all the incredible work they do.
The activities and outings are always interesting, fun and creative. There is lots of sensory activities, lots of time spent in the amazing garden and fantastic opportunities through community visits to local areas that our eldest loves.
Recent wheelie day was a highlight for our eldest who has really grown in confidence on scooter/bike since this. The recent sports day was a lovely and supportive chance for the Children to experience games and teamwork.
Our children have grown in confidence, made friends and had opportunities to try activities that we wouldn't manage at home.

Our children really look forward to their days here.

Review from S B (Father of Child) published on 27 March 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

The nursery and staff are fantastic. My son loves to be there and has his own favourites. My only highlight for the nursery would be to maintain cleanliness inside and outside the nursery. Regular hygiene checks would be much appreciated around the kids (runny noses etc). A little bit of an upgrade in the kid's play area would be great too.

Reply from Nursery Manager, Nursery Manager at Currie Children's Day Nursery

Thank you for your feedback. We are very lucky to have such a dedicated and hard-working team at CCN. In regards to cleanliness: with parents coming and going at pick-up times the hallway floors can get mucky (especially in the winter) so I will pass your feedback on to our cleaner, however, these...

Excellent nursery. Staff are very enthusiastic and always have a range of activities organised throughout the week. My daughter looks forward to going and has really progressed since attending. She has made lots of friends who she talks about at home, as well as the staff. Staff are excellent at updating the learning journals and it's great to see photos of what they've been doing each day/week.

Review from Debbie L (Mother of Child) published on 4 March 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I have been using Currie Children's Day Nursery for 4 years, with my first son from age 3 and now my second (started when he was one). It has been lovely to watch it grow and develop. I was happy with the nursery in the early stages but they have made so many changes, to the outdoor space, introducing Forest style learning, introducing themes based on what the children are interested in and incorporating trips out as well, it has grown immensely in the last couple of years. The staff in all the rooms have been really caring and my son who is there now talks about them a lot and I can tell they engage with him in his interests. He also comes home having learned new things all the time, which is great.

Reply from Lisa Wilson, Nursery Manager at Currie Children's Day Nursery

Thanks, Debbie, it is great to hear you can see all the hard work we have put in to keep the setting growing and developing over the years, we try hard to ensure we keep improving and keep the children learning all the time.

Always welcoming friendly staff who ensure my daughter is settled and happy. They always seem to be doing a range of activities which promote learning which is fantastic and I love that they allow the children to be outside whenever they want to be. My daughter enjoys going to nursery very much. Very happy with the care she receives.

We have had our little boy in nursery for six months now, he has thrived with the support from the nursery staff and enjoys the variety of topics and activities they provide on a weekly basis. He loves his time there and his needs are well met and he is continually pushed to develop and progress aligned with his goals for learning and development.

Review from A H (Father of Child) published on 21 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

The nursery teachers are very good with my son, they make sure he's busy and has lots to do and is happy when there to see his pals. The best day of the week is a Friday when he is there and the outside park is good with the door open so they can play outside any time and the lunch he always eats as at the house he never eats it all. Thanks.

The team have made it so easy for us to adjust to our 1-year-old starting nursery over the past few months, going above and beyond to accommodate her additional needs. The communication and feedback from the staff are always excellent and we feel our daughter is in very safe hands. She already runs in smiling when she sees her favourite staff members!

Review from Darren C (Father of Child) published on 21 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Currie Children's Day Nursery is well run with our children enjoying the facilities and staff with the educational agenda/play keeping them well entertained and enthused. The variety and source of daily/weekly events/learnings are great and our children are happy to attend nursery and full of life when there which is a testament to the team. The journals are a great source of information to keep parents abreast of what the kids have been up to and to aid our understanding of their learning and development.

Really happy with this nursery. All the staff have been great and my daughter always comes home happy having had busy days and lots of time outdoors. Staff have always been happy to help and have a laid-back, flexible approach. Parking isn't great for drop-off/pick-up, especially if you're not a confident driver.

It has been eighteen months since we put our son in this nursery. The staff are really nice and communicate frequently and effectively at every pick-up and in learning journals. There are lots of well-planned activities as well as freedom and space to allow our son to explore by himself. There is lots of outdoor play, weekly shopping/cooking etc. are great too. My son always loves to go and he loves his wee friends there too.

Overall Experience

Currie Children's Day Nursery has been fantastic for my daughter. The feedback that we receive is top-notch and makes us feel a part of her development even when we're not there. The garden space is particularly good with loads for the children to do. As an avid cook myself I think it's brilliant that the kids get to do some cooking at the nursery.
