Banana Moon Day Nursery has always been my top nursery. The staff are very friendly, they work with parents to support growth and development with the child. If anything happens to your child they always make contact with the parent. Excellent communication. Clean and good variety of meals.
Good morning, thank you for your kind words. It is always nice to hear parents are happy with the service we provide.
Banana Moon Nursery in Littleover is just everything you could ask for. It’s full of lots of fun and exciting activities which we get updates for via photos and videos. The staff go above and beyond and the management team is always there to have a chat and to answer your questions. I would highly recommend bringing your child to Banana Moon Littleover. My nephew always tells me the exciting things he gets up to and has a big smile on his face.
Good Afternoon, we are so pleased to hear your nephew has settled well into Banana Moon Littleover. Thank you for the fantastic review.
The communication during the day is fantastic, and the feedback at the end of the day can’t be faulted at all.
Hi, thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you are happy with the service provided by our Baby Moons staff. I will be happy to pass on your positive feedback to the girls in the room.
Please don’t send your child to this nursery! Very Poor leadership from senior members of staff. The staff do not follow simple policies and procedures! Gave my child food she couldn’t have and was put into the hospital for days. An unacceptable mistake from a senior member of staff especially after having me fill out new allergy forms 3 hours before and going through all her symptoms and still being given what she can’t have is appalling. Find a better place for your child to attend don’t trust Banana Moon!
The nursery informs us of any updates, changes to staffing/policy or sickness/illnesses in a timely manner. I have never raised any concerns but feel confident that they would be dealt with effectively and honestly.
My daughter has three meals a day (often seconds too!) and the food is balanced and healthy.
Banana Moon Day Nursery is clean and bright and there is an array of different activities.
The entrance to the nursery highlights the staffing structure and identifies the designated safeguarding leads. We receive regular updates throughout the day.
The team really are wonderful and it is a pleasure to have found a nursery that my daughter enjoys so much.
Thank you for such a lovely review. The staff team are always pleased to receive positive feedback from parents and carers. We are really pleased with how well your daughter has settled and built bonds with all staff. Thanks again and I will share this review with the staff team.
My daughter loves going there. She even goes and hugs some of the carers when she finishes her day. Drawings and activities are sent home so you can keep your little ones first pieces of art.You get daily feedback through the app and also in person at pick up time which is great. They called you instantly if something happens, even if it’s minor.
Thank you for your review, we are pleased to hear you are happy with our service. Thank you.
Both my children started at Banana Moon Day Nursery Littleover early this year and I cannot fault the care in the staff. My youngest son in babies has come on leaps and bounds and grown so much in confidence. His key person has developed a beautiful bond with him and we praise her for the care and warmth she shows towards him, he settled so quickly into their routine as he has never been left with anyone before. My older son has been showing an interest in numbers and letters at home and his key person has continued his interest in Full Moons by introducing him to recognising the letters in his name and starting to write; along with number recognition. He has begun recognising double digits. Well done to one staff member in particular in Full Moons for supporting his interests and continuing to help him grow with his independence. He has a beautiful bond with her, as he looks forward to going to nursery!
Hi Tina, this feedback really does keep the staff motivated and this has been shared with both of the ladies who look after your children. Thank you do much for your kind words.
The staff always explain what they have been doing when we collect her. All of this is reinforced via the app.
Thank you, we are happy she has grown in confidence and is happy.
Within a few months, she became happy and attentive with all the staff and the staff ensured they kept to the same routine we would have at home for sleeping, meals and drinks.
I love getting all the regular updates through the Banana Moon app about how long my child has slept what she has eaten etc. It’s never too much trouble for the staff to update me over the telephone when I call or at the end of the day upon collection.
From all the nurseries we were considering I am actually glad we chose this one, the present manager and staff in the baby moon class have all been great.
Thank you so much for such a lovely review. I will ensure this feedback is shared with the staff team.
Fantastic daycare nursery. My child is well looked after. He enjoys his time in the nursery. Lovely caring staff. Very welcoming daycare. I am happy with the development of my child too. Happy Mum.
Exceptional service. My daughter's day care is handled with the utmost professionalism. App updates are prompt and a brief summary is always provided on a collection, without request. Highly recommended.
Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery. We are so pleased that your daughter is enjoying her time with us.
I would recommend this nursery to any parent who is thinking of sending their child to a nursery as I know how big a decision this can be.
Thank you for reviewing our nursery. We are so pleased to see that you are happy with the level of care that we all provide and that your son has now settled well.
Great nursery, my daughter has been going to Banana Moon Nursery for over a year and she really enjoys it. Staff are caring and attentive. We get daily progress reports via the app and during pick-up time as well.
Thank you for taking the time to review our nursery. We are really pleased that you are happy with the service that we provide and that your daughter enjoys attending Banana Moon Day Nursery.
Moved my son here after becoming increasingly despondent with a previous nursery and cannot fault the care given to my son in helping him to settle, which he didn’t find easy. They are incredibly up-to-date on safeguarding and GDPR training. Events to invite parents in are well organised, and as parents, we quickly felt part of the ‘family’. Would highly recommend.
Thank you for your lovely review! It is so pleasing to hear that you felt a part of the "Banana Moon family!"
We are so happy with Banana Moon for our daughter. She is about to turn 3 and has been attending full time since they opened. I remember when we first went in for a look around, we instantly had the feeling that it just felt right. We had seen several other nurseries and they all had something that made us feel uneasy, but at Banana Moon everything is great. The layout of the rooms is amazing and the facilities being purpose-built makes such a big difference to the space. The staff are all so wonderful and friendly and give parents such a good report at the end of the day about the kids' day and what they did and the app is brilliant for communicating details about what they have done, how much and what they have eaten, nappy changes, sleep and pictures. I absolutely love their child-led approach and I love seeing that they plan activities based on the children’s interests! And the best review is that my daughter absolutely loves going and happily runs in every morning!
Thank you for such a lovely review! It is a pleasure to welcome you to the nursery every day, and we are so pleased she enjoys coming!
Really impressed with Banana Moon. Since the first time I went to see the nursery, I was extremely impressed with the service, the layout, cleanliness and level of detail to make the children’s time there a happy one. The nursery teachers always make you feel at ease and that my child is happy there. If there’s anything I need to query big or small I know it will be answered. I would definitely recommend banana moon to anyone who is considering their child to go.
It's lovely to hear such positive feedback. Thank you so much for taking the time to write this review, we really appreciate it!
The staff are very friendly, professional and nothing ever seems too much trouble. Fantastic communication and great attention to detail in the support of my little one. A great environment and very happy employees who always greet you with a smile. Thank you for all your hard work and support.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback. We really appreciate your kind words!
Banana Moon is the best nursery my son has been too, the toys and amenities are to a high specification. All the staff, especially the manager, are caring, attentive and friendly. The activities are tailored, educational and most of all, fun.
It's great to hear how positive you feel about our nursery.
Absolutely brilliant nursery. Our 3.5-year-old has clearly developed since being there. The staff are very welcoming, friendly and our son constantly talks about them at home. He has made lots of friends since being there. We are assured that our child is looked after and cared for when at the nursery. We would highly recommend Banana Moon to other families. Keep up the good work!
We love looking after your little boy, it's an absolute pleasure! Thank you so much for your kind words, we really appreciate it.
Fantastic nursery! My son has been here since it opened and absolutely loves going there. The staff are great. They have a fantastic app in place which updates throughout the day letting me know how my son is getting on. Really recommend to anyone thinking about sending their child there!
Thank you so much!!
