Overall Experience

I am happy the way nursery helped Anabia to learn so many things, she has become more confident, independent and friendly, teachers encouraged her to learn through play, stories, and songs which makes learning enjoyable. I am happy to see my child growing and learning everyday in a safe and caring environment.

Overall Experience

My child is attending Sunflower since she turned two. Since then I am very happy and impressed on the professionalism of the place and how they are working with children. They always make sure they give enough attention to any development areas the child needs encouragement. The behaviours of staffs and management is also best for me. And I will always suggest it as a best place to entrust our children.

Overall Experience
My child takes a while in getting used to new people as she is non verbal. However the work the nursery workers do is outstanding! I cannot praise them enough. Communication is 100% all the time.

Very caring.

Overall Experience

Staff are really good and very engaging. They provide excellent care to the toddlers and babies here. Overall, I am very happy with the service. My daughter was initially very resistant to attend nursery every day but now she walks into the nursery happily, which itself is a big achievement, and thanks to the staff for this achievement.

Review from Momna R (Mother of Child) published on 24 November 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
As a first-time mum, I was incredibly nervous about sending my son to nursery, but I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the staff have been outstanding professional, warm, and genuinely caring. They've always taken the time to answer every question I've had, no matter how small or when I've asked it, which has made me feel so supported and reassured.
What stands out most is how happy and excited my son is to go in every morning and how content he is when he comes home. That joy speaks volumes about the nurturing, stimulating environment the nursery provides. The activities are thoughtfully planned, and I've seen real growth in his confidence and communication.

It's clear the team truly care about each child's wellbeing and development. I feel incredibly lucky to have found a place where my son feels safe, happy, and inspired to learn. I can't recommend them highly enough.
