My son just started at coton day nursery and it has in just a few months done wonders for my sons development. The welcoming that my son has had from the team has been nothing but positive and truly could not be more grateful for how patient theyve been with myself and my son. Today I got to see the different bonds hes got with his teachers and it was beautiful to see how caring and loving they are towards not just my son but every child that walks through the door. I was very anxious when my son started nursery but seeing how much hes thriving i realise i had absolutely nothing to worry about. In just a few months i can see how much work and effort the team put into their day to day activities for the children, and thats including what we dont get to see behind the scenes. Forever grateful that i found such a lovely nursery to start my sons journey into school and its all thanks to the lovely staff :)
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review. It truly means a lot to our whole team.
We're absolutely delighted to hear how well your son has settled in and how much he's thriving-seeing children grow in confidence and development is exactly why we do what we do. It's especially lovely...
2 of our daughters have been to Coton nursery and I was previously really impressed with it especially the fact that siblings can be in the same room unlike some larger settings. Unfortunately recently, staffing has been an issue with last minute closures and changes of hours which has a real negative impact when we have no flexibility in our jobs and no other help with childcare. Unfortunately the nursery have given us 2 weeks notice to a change of hours (no longer a 730am start) again due to staging. This is no longer compatible with our work hours. I am genuinely heartbroken that we are having to scramble around to sort a new nursery over the Christmas closure and that my daughter who has been their since 5 months will have to leave somewhere she has thrived for her final 5 months before school. Overall has been a wonderful setting but unfortunately ongoing inability to retain staff or fix staffing issues have made it unreliable for us.
Thank you for your honest feedback and for the kind words about our nursery. We are sorry for the disruption and distress the recent staffing challenges and changes to hours have caused your family. We fully understand how difficult this has been, particularly with work commitments and at such an...
Tough to get places and this is always a nail biter when new term availability is released, more spaces would be welcomed by parents
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're delighted to hear that all three of your children have enjoyed their time at Coton Nursery and our wrap-around care. It's great to know that the team's efforts to create a fun and supportive environment have made a positive impression.
We are new to the nursery. We have been impressed by the excellent communication from staff both in the nursery and wider family first network. Staff are warm and friendly and we have been welcomed with open arms. Our children feel happy and safe at Coton nursery and we feel happy leaving them with such a caring and genuine team. The updates throughout the day are much appreciated.
Thank you for sharing your feedback! We're delighted to hear that you and your children feel so welcome at Coton Nursery. Our team takes pride in providing a caring and supportive environment, and it's wonderful to know that our communication and daily updates are helping you feel confident and reassured.
The outside space is small but works well and they have a lot of fun. When possible the children are given the opportunity to have a small outing to the village playground.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback! We're delighted to hear that you and your child enjoy being part of Coton Day Nursery. Our small and friendly setting is something we're really proud of, as it allows all the children to get to know each other while still having cosy spaces for our...
To make Coton even more wonderful it would be great if the menu for children could be changed more regularly with a wider healthier variety of snacks.
It would also be great to have a minimum of two observations a day so as a parent we can have conversations with our children about what they have achieved.
We're delighted to hear how much your daughter enjoys her time at Coton and that our team are making such a positive difference to her learning and play each day.
We can only say the most wonderful things about this Nursery. They took the greatest care phasing my daughter in, she was always eager to go and had a lot of fun and made many friends. The staff were loving and caring with my child and extremely professional.
Thank you for your lovely review. We're so glad your daughter enjoyed her time with us and felt happy and supported.
Brilliant nursery, very accommodating with comprehensive tours of the facilities. Staff were so lovely and the children so happy and friendly. A great space for children to thrive in their early years.

My child really enjoys the nursery. The staff are so friendly and accommodating and make the nursery a really happy place to be for the children. It's a small setting, meaning that everyone knows everyone well which gives it a community feeling. We get photos/videos and other observations on the parents' app to let us know how our child is doing.
Your review warms our hearts! We're thrilled your child enjoys nursery and feels part of our close-knit community. Our friendly, accommodating staff are dedicated to creating a happy place for the children. We love keeping you updated with photos and videos. Thank you for being part of our nursery family!
Our son started at Coton Day Nursery in September 2023. We chose the nursery because it has a warm and inviting feel and the staff made us feel at ease. The nursery in our opinion is the perfect size and allows smaller children to interact with the older children, but still has a cosy and safe baby area. We absolutely love the creative displays/toys within the nursery and the personal crafts that our son brings home. The staff know our son well and he has a wonderful relationship with his key worker and all the staff that care for him, they are kind, observant and incredibly friendly. The app is another great tool they have and we look forward to the daily updates and pictures. Choosing the right nursery can be tricky, but we are so pleased we found Coton Day Nursery.
We're delighted to hear about your positive experience since your son started at Coton Day Nursery in September 2023!

It's fantastic that your son has a wonderful relationship with his key worker and enjoys the daily updates on the app. Thank you for choosing us and for your kind words!
Coton Day Nursery has amazing staff and facilities, my son is very happy here, he has learnt a lot and made some wonderful friends. I recommend the nursery to everyone and will be sending my daughter in September.
We're absolutely thrilled that you and your son love Coton Day Nursery! It's wonderful to hear he's happy, learning, and making fantastic friends. We're excited to welcome your daughter in September! Your recommendation means the world to us. Here's to more happy moments and wonderful friendships!
She's a picky eater but always comes home full. She always has lots of happy stories from her day to share with us at home.
Thank you for your fabulous review! It's wonderful to hear your daughter loves Coton and comes home happy each day. We're pleased she enjoys her meals despite being a picky eater and that she shares so many happy stories from her day. Your daughter's joy is the best reward for us!
Amazing staff - young and energetic. Our 3 year old daughter is very happy and learns a lot every day. The playroom has plenty of cool toys and our daughter is in love with their amazing garden. The thing I love the most is receiving daily diary reports, photos, descriptions and observations of what my daughter did or learned during the day - it is really fun to read all the reports while I am at work.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
We could not fault the staff at Coton Day Nursery. They are friendly, efficient, communicative, kind, caring and engaging and our daughters think they’re the best thing ever! The activities they organise are educational yet fun and the mixture of indoor and outdoor activities is also good. We would definitely recommend!
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. Your feedback is greatly appreciated!
My son is the happiest he’s been at Coton Day Nursery. He loves the staff and other children. He always has so much fun at nursery. The food provided to the children is of great quality and usually goes down very well with my son who loves food.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us! We're delighted to hear that your son is enjoying his time at Coton Day Nursery. It's wonderful that he's formed positive relationships with both the staff and his peers, and we're glad he's having fun while also enjoying the quality food we provide.
The staff clearly care about the children as individuals and create a personal bond with each of them. The environment is very warm and friendly and feels family-like.
The nursery team also put a huge effort into creating new experiences and creative learning opportunities for the kids each day, so that the kids have very varied experiences and remain excited and engaged. The personal approach really works as kids feel safe and so learn loads from a very early age.
The team is approachable, and they take time at the beginning and end of the day to communicate how things went. They also put loads of photos and videos up on the app on a very regular basis, allowing us to see what our son is up to and giving us material to engage with our son when he is back home to discuss his day.
Can not recommend more!
Thank you for the review and saying we are outstanding!
Our experience at Coton Day Nursery is very positive, teachers are lovely, caring and trustworthy. The space and equipment for games, learning and activities seem varied and abundant. Our little one loves it and speaks about his key worker fondly. We feel that the food offered is ok but could be more nutritionally balanced. All in all, we are very happy and feel lucky to have Coton Day Nursery nearby.
Thank you for your review which is important to us. The staff are doing an amazing job and thank you for choosing our nursery.
We had a lovely experience with all the staff from Coton Day Nursery. It is amazing how many pictures they are putting online to the app to keep you updated with what is happening with our child. Thank you Coton Day Nursery.
Thank you for the review and great to hear you have had a lovely experience and thank you for being part of our nursery family.
