Review from C K (Mother of Child) published on 11 October 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Our daughter loves this nursery, she has been there for the past two years and the staff is amazing. The setting of the nursery is great, surrounded by nature and they have a lovely garden. The activities are well thought out and stimulating for children. We have already registered her sibling and we couldn't be happier.

Overall Experience
My son has attended this nursery since he was 13 months old and is nearly 4. He absolutely loves everything about the nursery from the staff to the facilities and the fantastic outdoor space that he can choose to go out to at any point in the day.
The new cooking class that they offer is brilliant and he is asking to help cook at home now too which is lovely.

They are extremely accommodating and I would highly recommend the nursery to anyone in the area.

Overall Experience
My child loves this nursey and the environment they have created is fun and non-restrictive. They can play and explore in their own way with plenty of opportunities to join in dancing, singing, cooking and more.
The staff are friendly and caring and have good trusting relationships with my child.

The facilities are also great with plenty of outdoor space to explore.

Always a friendly welcome from the staff at Currie Children's Day Nursery and they make sure your child is settled in and looks forward to coming each day. Enjoying being able to pick up my child from inside the nursery and see what they have been doing throughout the day.

I have associated with this nursery since 2019 and continue with my second baby too. Trust and comfort are the two words I will use for them. A nice layout helps kids for both outdoor and indoor play depending on the weather.

Well done team Currie Children's Day Nursery.

Individual staff at the nursery seem to be very kind and caring with my child. We had extreme frustration with management who were slow or nonresponsive via email. This was after they raised concerns on several occasions and caused us great concern.

Reply from J. Gilburt, Nursery Director at Currie Children's Day Nursery

Thank you for your lovely feedback about the staff, We work very hard to ensure we are a very highly trained and knowledgeable team. We are sorry to hear that you experienced a problem with relation to our email system and feel that our communication could have been better, at the time we felt that...

Review from C C (Mother of Child) published on 15 August 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Both my children have and still do attend Currie Children's Day Nursery. The staff are very welcoming and are always happy upon arrival. Learning experiences are always relevant to my daughter's age and learning, and she is always coming home happy talking about what she had done throughout her day. I really like how the staff takes the children outdoor to explore the local community and go further afield to places such as museums, farms and town.

I feel my child is safe and cared for within the nursery which makes me comfortable when dropping off.

Reply from Jane Gilburt, Owner at Currie Children's Day Nursery

Thanks so much for your lovely review. We have a marvellous team at Currie Nursery which is what makes it so special. Thanks for recognising their efforts!

Review from Cat M (Mother of Child) published on 29 March 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 3-year-old has been at this nursery for two years and my youngest son is due to start soon.
There is a small and cosy feel to the nursery and have always felt my son has been well cared for.
There is lots of outdoor play and arts and crafts. My son absolutely loves the big garden and has made some amazing friendships with the other kids and staff.

I recommend to anyone looking for a nursery in the area.

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

Thank you for your lovely words. We love getting the children in the outdoors environment as much as we can, whether this is the garden or exploring the community.

Overall Experience

My child has attended the nursery since he was one. He is now in his third room there and I am really happy with how he is cared for. The staff that he has worked with have been great and seem to get to know him as an individual. He gets a variety of experiences and the sharing of these experiences on the app helps to have discussions with him about his learning when he is at home. He enjoys looking back at the pictures that are shared as well. He loves being outside and the outdoor space has been developed a lot over the past few years. He seems to have a great time whilst there and the staff that he has worked with have shown a genuine interest in his learning and development.

Overall Experience
My daughter has been going here since she was 9-months-old, she is almost 3 now. Her development speaks for itself. She loves her days there. The staff are all so friendly and excellent at keeping you up to date. Her little sister will start here soon too.

The children go outside every day and explore areas in the local community. It’s great to see lots of photos of them enjoying their days.

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

We do love to get outside and go exploring and we are glad to hear your daughter loves her time here.

Overall Experience

This nursery has been fantastic with communication and care. They share learning steps clearly and keep us up to date with our daughter’s well-being and development. We really feel like they know her and care for her. The staff have spent time building quality relationships with her so she is happy and secure. She is often running in happy and laughing and the same when being picked up. We couldn’t ask for more!

Review from Gemma N (Mother of Child) published on 21 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Staff are amazing, best thing to say about the nursery is how reassuring they are and the commitment they put into each child. Excellent at responding to concerns or when just having a bad day checking in with photos etc. Approachability is a big thing when they are little right up to when they are bigger but with speech concerns - we’ve had nothing but positivity from staff.

Love the fact the kids can go outside when they want, the doors are open even in wet weather (suitably dressed of course).

Overall Experience
A great nursery with wonderful staff and facilities. We have a 3-year-old and 1-year-old here and know they are well looked after.
3-year-old has been there for one and a half years and loves all the outdoor play. Great to see the forest schools approach. Food also goes down well!

Would thoroughly recommend!

Overall Experience

We have been attending this nursery for the last two years and are so pleased with the care our children receive. The staff love them and it shows in the activities they lead. The location is very convenient for us and the outdoor areas are always being upgraded and improved. It’s so popular, they’ve had to build an extension to accommodate all the new children that are waiting to join!

Review from Claire O (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My son has been going to the nursery since he was 1 (now 2 and a half) and he absolutely loves it. The food is great, the kids have so many toys to play with and activities to do and I fully believe he has learnt so much as part of his development from the nursery. I think he’d rather be there than with me at times.

Review from Asmira M (Mother of Child) published on 17 February 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I can’t rave about this nursery anymore if I tried! The staff are lovely and my son looks forward to nursery every single day he is in. He comes home with lots of stories about what he had done. A round of applause to them for everything they are teaching my boy. I sometimes wonder where all this information fits! The meals are fabulous and there is a variety of different types of meals they offer i.e. hot meals, cold meals, some veggie and some meat. They are so accommodating and I love the fact I can drop my son off any time after 7:30 am and collect latest 6 pm which works so well with me and my partner's working hours.

Reply from Lewis Gilburt, Owner at Currie Children's Day Nursery

It is lovely for me as the owner to hear such positive praise for my staff and the nursery. I am so proud of all that they do. Like you, I am amazed every time I am there by everything on offer.
