We're really happy with Just Imagine Maldon Day Nursery. The staff work really hard to not only care and love my daughter when I'm not there but also do great activities that stimulate and engage her. She has made lovely friends too.
Thank you for the review and happy to see your daughter loves all the activities.
I can't speak highly enough of Just Imagine Maldon Day Nursery, all the staff are amazing, they are kind and caring and my daughter has come on leaps and bounds with her learning! All the activities they do sound brilliant my daughter is always excited to tell me about her day! (and her yummy lunch and snacks haha). They also make so much effort to put on lovely events for the children, like Halloween parties and meeting Santa, I have moved now, but it's the only place I will now send my son when he is old enough! I feel completely at ease when my daughter goes into the nursery as I know she is so well looked after! Thank you Just Imagine!
Thank you for the review and saying all the staff are amazing. Great to hear your daughter is always excited by nursery and happy with all the activities we set up.
The food smells delicious, and our child clearly enjoys the variety of options available.
The activities are stimulating and educational and clearly a hit with our child.
We genuinely couldn't be happier with our choice of nursery.
Thank you for the review, and great to hear your child has settled and is enjoying time at our nursery.
The communication between the nursery and parents is wonderful, and I highly recommend this setting.
Thank you for the review, and great to hear your little one is enjoying nursery.
A really lovely nursery, flexible and friendly.
Very happy we were recommended this place.
Thank you for the review, and lovely to hear you and your child have been taken care of and your daughter has settled in very quickly.
Our 2-year-old joined Just Imagine in September from another setting. His brother also joined for breakfast and after-school club in September. We have been extremely impressed with the setting, and our children are very happy to attend each day. (We sometimes used to get tears at drop off, but not here!). Staff are friendly yet professional, and our little one has made such a bond with his key worker. He always grins when we tell him he is seeing his key worker. We also noticed a real improvement in his independence and willingness to practice new skills at home, like helping to tidy up and cutting up/preparing food. The app to see what he gets up to is fantastic. We recommend this setting wholeheartedly.
Thank you for the review, and we are pleased to see your little ones are happy and full of smiles. Lovely to hear your little one is getting involved at home and showing independence and new skills.
My son has been attending this nursery for 2 years and I can honestly say I can not fault it, more so since it has been taken over by the new manager. He had learnt so much since going to Just Imagine Maldon Day Nursery, he’s made so many friends, he’s always got on and loved spending time with the nursery staff too. This is his last year attending and they have done such a lovely little graduation for the leavers with a graduation photo, bubbles for the children, food and drink, balloons and a beautiful back feature for photos to be taken with. It was such a lovely afternoon and a lovely way for my son to leave the nursery. He still attends during half term as I will not send him anywhere else as this nursery is just perfect!
Great nursery that my child attended before she started school. This nursery really helped my child’s confidence and has a nice, friendly, family feel and has always been very happy there. She now attends the after school club most days and loves it.
It's great to hear that your little one had an enjoyable time at Maldon nursery and has gone on to benefit from the after school club. Thanks for your review.
The staff are lovely and easy to talk to and constantly keep you updated on any changes or events that are happing through their app!
Lovely to hear that your stepdaughter is enjoying the afterschool club. Thank you for sending in your review.
Every day, I pick her up, she is always in such a good mood.
The ladies that work here are great at communicating with parents and have a professional relationship with each parent.
My daughter tells me they have wonderful books and even the best dress-up items.
I believe it is at nursery that she gained such great confidence in her communication skills. She does not stop haha!
This is her last year here, and she is so ready for the next stage in her little life now. This is partly to do with the staff and how they have engaged and taught her so well these past 2-years.
She will be sad to leave but is excited about primary school.
Thank you to you all.
Thank you for your lovely review. It's great to hear how much your daughter loves the nursery and the staff. We're really pleased that she has gained such great confidence in her communication skills and is ready for her next adventure at big school. We wish her all the best for September.
The staff are absolutely brilliant with my daughter, who is turning three soon! My daughter would have nearly been going to Just Imagine for a year and has come on leaps and bounds with her speech and communication. She looks forward to going to preschool and talks about her key worker outside of preschool too!
Thank you for your lovely reviews. It's great to hear your daughter enjoys coming to nursery, and you feel she has come on leaps and bounds during her time here.

Hi, thank you for your review. It's great to hear you and your daughter are happy here.
I have three children, and you know when a nursery is for you. I visited a few before Just Imagine, but when I did, I knew it was the correct one for my daughter. It’s a feeling of knowing your child is happy and you can walk away knowing their safe, which is definitely how I feel at Just Imagine. The staff are lovely, the gardens a lovely space. My daughter enjoys every day there, and I’m so grateful that she’s getting a good start. It’s gone too quickly, and soon she will be leaving to start big school, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Just Imagine to anyone! It’s a relaxed environment with lots of learning, and she’s made friends and seen the world in much greater depth since being here. Thank you very much for all your help and support.
Hi, thank you for your review. It's great to hear that you and your daughter are both happy at Maldon. We wish your daughter the best of luck for big school when the time comes. Thank you for recommending us.
I cannot praise the staff enough. They are fantastic with the children and are always so helpful. My son is always really excited when I tell him he’s going to breakfast or after school club. He really enjoys all the different activities and loves spending time with his friends from school. He attends after school clubs at his school, and it’s so helpful that the staff can pop across to the school to collect him so he doesn’t miss out on after school clubs.
Hi. Thank you for leaving a lovely review. It's amazing to hear that you think our staff are fantastic and helpful. How lovely to know that your son enjoys going to breakfast and after school club, and getting involved in all the different activities. I'm glad our team are able to help to make sure your son doesn't miss out on anything happening at his school.
I cannot recommend this nursery highly enough. Since my child joined he has loved attending and has made some fabulous bonds both with staff and children and done some lovely things. The setting is very well equipped with a super garden, the staff can't be faulted and nothing is too much trouble for any of them. It is also lovely to have the mix with the school children before and after school but the quieter session in between.
