I have had a very positive experience of Evergreen Early Years. Both my girls have been to this provider since the age of 2 and have benefitted from all the activities that have been on offer. For example, the staff engage the children in lots of play to develop their learning, both indoors and outdoors, as well as ensuring the children can engage in self-directed play with lots of areas set up to generate their creativity and imagination. Role play stories, board games, construction, dance, mud kitchen, balance bikes and gardening are just some of the activities that my children enjoyed here. I feel Evergreen Early Years provides children with the skills and knowledge they need to develop further and thrive as they move on to Primary School. They employ a qualified teacher to provide excellent learning and development for children of pre-school age. This has really helped my daughters transitions onto primary school with ease. They have both been supported to create learning journals during their time at the setting, tracking their learning and work on areas to develop.
Both management and staff are very professional and trustworthy. As a parent, I have been welcomed into the setting many times to engage with staff and get to know them whilst undertaking themed activities for the children eg: teddy bears picnic, reading week, Halloween etc. This helped me build a rapport with the team and work together on enhancing my daughter's learning journey.
The setting feels homely, clean, safe and is full of fun and happy children and staff. They provide healthy meals and snacks throughout the day and encourage basic table manners and hand hygiene by socialising together around the dinner table, under staff guidance.
Both my daughters have loved their time at Evergreen Early Years and miss the staff. I, as a parent, hold the setting with high regard and will certainly recommend it to other parents looking for a local leading provider, where the children always come first.
