She talks about the teachers with so much love and excitement, and that alone tells me how special they are. As a parent, there is nothing more comforting than knowing your child is in a place where they are loved, cared for, and supported every single day.
I cannot thank the team enough for everything they have done for my daughter, but also for me as a mum. They have always made me feel reassured and at ease while I'm at work, knowing she is safe, happy, and being so well looked after.Watching her grow in confidence, learn new things, and build such beautiful relationships with her teachers and friends has meant the world to us. We will truly miss the Rainbow Day Nursery family so much.Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Honestly, my nerves as any new mum to send their child off to nursery were huge but we couldn't be happier. The staff are so friendly and approachable and my Son has come along so much since starting, both academically and personally. Thank you!!
The activities are thoughtful and engaging, helping the children learn through play while building confidence and social skills. Communication with parents is excellent we're always kept up to date and feel fully involved in our child's progress.
It's such a relief to know our child is happy, well cared for, and excited to go in each day. We're so grateful to the whole team and would highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and loving place for their child.
Overall, I've had an excellent experience so far.
Both my children have attended Rainbow day nursery and have loved it. Staff are caring, proactive and supportive. They have created a welcoming culture where you can ask questions and can contact managers easily. Cannot recommend it enough!
My daughter recently started nursery. I rang on the 1st day to get an update on how she was doing. I called 2 times both times I was given a really good feedback. When I dropped her off she's bit sad but the team give her a cuddle. When she arrives at the nursery team ask her about the day. Team is very friendly.
It gives me real peace of mind knowing my children are is in a safe, friendly, and nurturing environment. I'm very grateful to the whole team.
Love the staff. I feel my children are safe and that's the most important thing . Everyone is very kind and flexible when family needs to accommodate short notice changes. Proud to work at a hospital that has this nursery available
Michelle, the manager, is amazing and runs the nursery really well. She is always welcoming, approachable, and supportive, which gives us great confidence as parents. The nursery is a safe, clean, and caring environment, and we've seen such positive changes in our boys' confidence and social skills.
We would highly recommend this nursery to other parents
A very good nursery with kind and passionate staff who truly care about the children. They are flexible and supportive with parents, which makes a big difference. Highly recommended. The management team is especially understanding and supportive, particularly for working parents without family support, and they always do their best to accommodate our needs.
The staff members are genuinely lovely. Caring and have lots of energy. They love playing with kids and my 18 mo child loves it. Her smile is my smile. They change nappies often and always report any issues with the child. They update the tracking and all my child develops
Thank you to all the team at Rainbow
This nursery is fantastic. My daughter loves coming here. The staff are all so friendly & approachable. They work really hard to look after all the children. The facilities are good and everyone seems happy!
There are lots of fun and engaging activities for the children. My children really enjoy attending nursery, and I can see that they are learning and developing well through play and structured activities.
I have had both my boys go to the same nursery, one now in reception but the youngest still there.
My son loves it in the morning when I drop him off and enjoys the lovely cuddles. The teaching and support for developmental skills is exceptional and I have noticed a great difference in my child.
Any concerns raised are dealt with properly and in a professional manner.
Amazing team, am very happy to get on with my day at work knowing that my child is well looked after.
My son is 2 years old and has been attending Rainbow Day Nursery since he was 14 months. He always seems so happy there! All of the staff is very loving, caring and supportive. I always found the key workers to be very welcoming, communicative and supportive. They do lots of different activities to improve children’s learning and development and ensure parents are involved too! Also it’s lovely to see all the pictures and videos of our children that they regularly send. I highly recommend Rainbow Day Nursery.
My son is thriving at this nursery and I can't recommend it enough to my colleagues. Whilst I am working I know my son is being well cared for and having a great time at nursery.
Excellent staff who go above and beyond. Staff were reassuring right from the staff, especially the manager. Caring room staff who understand the needs of my baby. Care is exceptional. Thank you for all you do.
Honestly, I couldn’t ask for a better nursery and staff to provide me with childcare. The nursery is clean and the staff are great. This nursery caters to all my child's needs i.e. milk-free meals and early morning drop-offs and evening pick-ups. She always has something new to tell me or show me something she’s learnt that day. They use a very useful app which I use to keep up to date with any news or event happening in the nursery or general activities my child has been up to throughout her day. My child really enjoys being at the nursery and will be sad to leave for school in September.
Understanding, caring and normal. Amazing communication and honest approach. I am very satisfied. We have tried different nurseries before. My 2 children attended for 3 years. Early opening and availability throughout the year, including half terms, is a fantastic option for working parents.
