The staff is very attentive and supportive to parents' requests. They track children's progresses with the app and they can provide detailed summaries of children's day upon collection.All in all a very good experience for both parents and children.

I am so grateful to have found such a fantastic nursery for our little one to attend. She has been to Green Giraffe Cardiff Bay since she was 10 months old, and the care she receives is incredible. They really love the children, providing a home from home environment but really developing them with age appropriate tasks/play/craft/outside time etc. Our little one loves going in, which is the greatest test and gives us comfort that she's happy. They also deal with food allergies really well, updating care plans, providing her with safe alternatives of the meal so she's not excluded, but they keep her really safe which is such a relief for us. The meals are nutritional and varied too, and sound delicious. Updates are great through the day via the app, and verbally on collection. I would always highly recommend the nursery based on our experience to date. Thank you,

My son has attended this Green Giraffe Cardiff Bay for over 3 years and i'm so happy that we chose this nursery. The care is excellent and from so many of the staff, particularly one member, who has gone the extra mile with in caring for him for the past 18 months - my son always talks about her at home! They have done so much in developing his speech, problem solving, emotional intelligence and humor that I cannot thank them enough!
I could be happier with the care and attention my child receives at this nursery. From day one, the staff have been warm, welcoming, and incredibly professional. It's clear that they genuinely care about every child's wellbeing and development.

The environment is safe, clean, and filled with fun and educational activities. My little one comes home smiling every day, full of stories and new things they've learned. The communication from the team is excellent & I always feel informed and involved.
If you're looking for a nursery that feels like a second home for your child, I can recommend Green Giraffe highly enough!

The app gives me regular updates to let me know how he has been and what he has been getting upto which I find extremely useful especially for what food he likes.
Now for the Staff. The staff are the most lovely and supportive bunch of people I could ever leave my child with, regularly staff members i see outside of the playrooms ask after my son and are always smiling and welcoming.
Recently my Son changed rooms and the communication from the Staff and way it was handled so as to minimise his discomfort cannot be faulted in anyway.Thank you Team, I am extremely happy with every aspect of Green Giraffe Cardiff Bay, especially the Staff.

My child has been at Green Giraffe since September 2024. We looked around for a long time for nurseries and felt that this one met our requirements. It's far surpassed our expectations and we're delighted that we chose it. It's always a nerve racking experience for any parents when their children start nursery but he runs in to see his key workers and comes home happy and smiling after a fun filled day. We love how "on it" with sharing his day with us they are, and how well they know him. My son genuinely loves coming to nursery and the staff are kind, empathetic and real professionals. They have always been so open and receptive and I feel they genuinely love our little guy. We're so grateful for the care they give him. Our little girl will be attending when she is a little older and I have no doubt she will have the same experience.
I cannot fault Green Giraffe. The staff are fantastic. They are super friendly and warm and welcoming to the children. They are genuinely interested in them and their development. They are looking out for your child. For example they took my son to see stick insects they had in a different room...
Their communication is so good. I feel I can trust them to tell me what has happened, both positive and negative. They keep the app updated and give me courtesy calls when there has been an accident or incident.
They helped my son settle into the nursery and into the different rooms as he moves up. He has made some really good friends through nursery. My son talks about the staff and the other children with great fondness. He really enjoys his time at the nursery. My son has developed great social skills and communication skills by being at this nursery. The staff support is second to none.
Thanks for looking after my child.
My child is in his transition period which is not easy on us at all, but I must admit they are trying hard to make it as smooth as possible for him to settle down.

My name is Cheryl, and I am the Nursery Manager at Cardiff Bay Green Giraffe.I first joined the company in 2014 as an apprentice when our Cathedral Road setting opened. Since then, I have worked across all of our settings in a variety of roles, gaining valuable experience and developing my passion for early years education.I currently hold a Level 4 qualification in Preparing for Management in Children's Care, Play, Learning and Development, and I am also completing a Montessori in Practice qualification. I am incredibly proud of the team around me and enjoy supporting and working alongside our staff to ensure every child has the very best day. We were recently awarded a Top 20 Day Nurseries Award, which is a testament to the dedication and care of our team. My favourite part of the role is spending time in the rooms with the children and welcoming new families to our setting.
Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors with my family. I have two very busy boys and an equally energetic puppy, so you'll usually find us exploring the beach or visiting a country park.

I have worked in childcare for the past 8 years after beginning my journey as an apprentice, and I am Level 3 qualified in both England and Wales. I recently moved from England to Cardiff to broaden my experience and knowledge of childcare practice across the UK, and I love continuing to learn and grow within the profession.
I’m passionate about supporting children’s individual needs and love being hands-on, spending time with the children, and helping them learn, grow, and feel confident every day. I enjoy working alongside positive, motivating people and creating a warm, caring environment where every child feels safe, happy, and valued.
Outside of work, I enjoy sea swims, hiking holidays, visiting my new puppy in West Wales, and learning Welsh.
