My son has thrived in his behaviour, communication and manners. He's very happy going to nursery and we have seen very positive changes in him. We attended our first event with our son for Christmas dinner, absolutely loved it! Thank you.
Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are happy to hear you and your son are having a good experience with us here at Banana Moon Hamilton. We all are so pleased with how he has settled into the Full Moon Room.
My daughter has been at this nursery since March 2024 and we've had a really positive experience since. She started in the baby room and has now moved over to the next room, the transition for this was very smooth to ensure she was comfortable beforehand. She always seems happy when I collect her. They have an app which tells me what and how much she's eaten and how long she's slept for as well as all the activities she's done with pictures. This is reassuring, as a parent, because I get updates throughout the day. Would recommend this nursery to anyone.
Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are happy to hear you and your daughter are having a good experience with us here at Banana Moon Hamilton. We all can't wait to see her grow and develop as she moves through the nursery over the next few years.
My twins joined at 7 months and I had such mum guilt about going back to work. The staff were great at making me feel like the babies are having a good time, eating well and hitting developmental milestones. The app has also been a highlight of my day seeing pictures of them, how much they've slept and eaten.

Banana Moon Day Nursery has excellent staff and facilities. My son loved it there and the fact that you can visit the class to pick up your child and drop off is wonderful. My son is being looked after so nicely and absolutely enjoys his time there. Definitely reccomend.
Thank you for your lovely review, we are so pleased your son has enjoyed his time at Banana Moon Day Nursery.
They were so caring and attentive to our little one's needs and so patient with him and us as parents, even the chef was amazing. When he wasn’t eating she went out of her way to prepare meals and talk to me to try to help. Honestly, he absolutely loved Banana Moon and we wish he could have stayed! What I loved as a mum was also that a lot of the staff members have their own children attend there too.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. It was a pleasure to care for your little boy.
Couldn’t have asked for a nicer nursery setting for my children. Lovely manager and staff, left a lasting impression on the whole family! Thank you for making my children’s time with you an amazing one.
Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are really happy to hear you and your 2 little girls had a good experience here at Banana Moon Hamilton. We wish them both all the best in the next journey of their education.
Absolutely amazing nursery. My daughter has been with Banana Moon for over a year and a half. They helped her transition from a little moon to a full moon and now she's more than ready for school. I can not thank the staff here enough, they have helped my daughter be the confident child she is today. The staff are always there to support us if we needed anything and they always arrange amazing things to keep the kids entertained. It's a sad day that she is leaving but we have made some amazing memories.
Thank you for taking the time to review us! We are really happy to hear you and your child have had a good experience here at Banana Moon Hamilton.
My child has been attending Banana Moon Day Nursery since 2021. The nursery is great, they are very accommodating. My son has had a really great experience at nursery and enjoys attending. He has come on leaps and bounds with his learning. We will miss Banana Moon when he starts school in September. The ladies are all great. My son tries all different food and eats it, things he wouldn’t try at home he gives it a go at nursery. I would recommend the nursery to everyone.

The manager and all the staff at Banana Moon Day Nursery are incredible. As a single mum with no help, Banana Moon fully supported and consistently went above and beyond their job roles to help myself and daughter with anything and everything. Banana Moon always putting the children first and being comfortable knowing your child is safe and cared for is a great feeling.

We've seen our daughter come on leaps and bounds in terms of her confidence and development thanks to the care and nurturing nature of the Banana Moon staff. We found our daughter's key worker went the extra mile to ensure our daughter was settled. Throughout the time our daughter has been at the nursery we've been kept well informed of her day thanks to the nursey's app, the daily dairies and conversation with staff. We've felt confident our daughter is not only in a safe environment but at a place she's thrived and excelled in, getting her ready for her next stage of school. We thank each and every member of the staff at Banana Moon they have all been excellent and are missed already now our daughter has finished nursery. We highly recommend Banana Moon.

Our daughter has been well looked after in the nursery and she enjoyed every time she has been there, growing, learning, sharing until she was nearly for school. We will highly recommend Banana Moon Day Nursery to anyone we know. Thank you.

We were nervous about placing our son into the right nursery. I cannot praise Banana Moon Day Nursery enough. They were so welcoming and attentive. My son really enjoys going he loves all the activities and food that is given and has learnt lots of new things since being there. I would like to thank the staff at Banana Moon for making this an easy journey for us.

Our daughter has loved being at Banana Moon Hamilton. She has really developed and also established her independence. The staff are so caring and supportive of her development and are very informative on handovers of my daughter's day when I collect her. The app is fantastic. My daughter has been to two other nurseries prior to Banana Moon and she completely settled after being there a few days. The staff really take the time to get to know your child to enable them to excel.

We are so pleased with how our daughter has settled in at nursery. The staff at the nursery are so competent and professional. They are really good with the kids too. We always look forward to seeing the diary on the app to see how our daughter's day has been at nursery. She absolutely loves it at nursery and looks forward to it. Thank you for making it a smooth journey for us and our daughter.

The rooms are airy and light with good quality, modern, new and clean equipment.
The staff are very friendly and kind. My one-year-old baby was offered several settling in sessions which I was very grateful for.
Now, several months on, my little girl loves coming here and loves her care workers too.
I really like the Banana Moon phone app as it gives me a daily update with a breakdown of activities and photos of her day.
I can highly recommend this nursery.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It’s great to hear your feedback. We are so pleased your little girl is enjoying her time here at Banana Moon Hamilton.
This nursery is amazing. Since I put my daughter in from 8 months, they have been nothing but supportive. Great updates on everything she has been doing in the day as well as being flexible with adding more days in the holidays. Would definitely recommend.
