Lovely nursery, we have received so much love and support from all the team. My little boy really enjoys his days in the preschool room and enjoys all the activities he gets to do. It's been the setting we needed for both him and us.

Our little Frankie has settled in so well since sept. Hes advanced so much already with singing, numbers and independent hygiene. Drop offs are hard at the moment but Miss Hailey, Claire, Sophie and Jasmine are always on hand to help. The girls in the room make Frankie feel so welcome, we couldnt be happier with the transition.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! Were delighted to hear how much Frankie has grown and developed since joining us. Settling in can take time, and were so pleased he feels welcomed and supported by the team. Well be sure to share your kind words with Hailey, Claire, Sophie and Jasmine!

All the staff in the Sunflower Room have been absolutely amazing with helping my son settle in. I have had regular pictures and updates and have always had a reply when I've messaged in the app. It is my son's 3rd week and he's already said "I love Fay and Claire". It has been a big adjustment for him and everyone has been very welcoming and supportive. Thank you all so much and especially Jasmine, Hailey and Claire who have been so reassuring.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! Were delighted to hear your son is settling in so well and already building such lovely relationships with the team. Well be sure to share your kind words with Jasmine, Hailey, Claire and the Sunflower Room team.

A special thank you to Miss Claire, who is truly amazing. The patience, kindness and support she gives my son mean the world to me as a parent. Knowing he is in such caring hands gives me so much reassurance.
Thank you to the whole team for supporting him, helping him grow and making his nursery experience so special. I would 100% recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a caring, supportive and welcoming environment for their child. You are all wonderful, and I'm so grateful for everything you do!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! Were delighted to hear how supported and reassured you feel, and well be sure to share your lovely words with Claire and the whole team. Its a pleasure to be part of your sons journey, and we truly appreciate your recommendation!

We have had positive experiences ever since our child started aged 1. Our child runs in every day and often doesn't want to leave. All the team have always been super friendly - Alex being a particular favourite!
Only negative has happened during the move from Toddlers to Pre School, it would have been helpful as parents to be made aware of more of the changes that will happen e.g. children now being expected to wipe their own bottoms so that we could prepare our child & help support from home. I also feel like a staggered transition for some of these big changes would be helpful.
Other than that our overall experience has been very positive!
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear how happy your child is at nursery, especially that they run in each morning and are reluctant to leave!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We're delighted to hear how happy your child is at nursery, especially that they run in each morning and are reluctant to leave! It's also lovely to hear your kind words about our team, particularly Alex, and we'll be sure to pass these on.
We appreciate your comments about the transition into pre-school. Moving rooms is an important milestone, and we recognise that changes to expectations and routines can feel significant for children and families.
We currently support transitions through settling-in sessions and a transition booklet shared with parents beforehand. However, your feedback highlights an opportunity to ensure families feel fully informed and prepared for the practical changes involved. We'll take this on board as we continue to develop our transition process.
Thank you again for your lovely comments and for being part of our nursery community!

The staff are all so caring, nurturing, patient, and supportive. A special thank you to his key worker, Christina, who has been such a wonderful part of George's journey. We are so grateful for the care, attention, and encouragement she gives him, as well as the love and support shown by all the other staff members. It really makes such a difference knowing that your child is in such caring and capable hands.
Thank you for your lovely review and for trusting us with Georges early years journey. Its wonderful to hear how much he has grown and thrived. Ill be sure to share your kind words with Christina and the team, who will be delighted.

Thank you for your lovely feedback. Its great to hear your son has settled so well into the Toddler Room and continues to enjoy his time at nursery. Im pleased Shelby and the wider team have made the transition such a positive experience for him and your family.

We have had such a positive experience at Marston Day Nursery. Our son first started at the nursery in September 2025 and initially found the new routine quite difficult. However, the warm and caring nature of all the staff in the Baby Room really helped him settle in. He especially warmed to Ati, Francesca and Georgina, and even now, whenever he sees Ati, he waves and babbles excitedly to her.
All of the staff were incredibly supportive of both our son and us, as we were understandably very nervous when settling him into the Baby Room. Seeing how much his confidence has grown is a real testament to the care and encouragement he has received at the nursery.
He has now moved into the Toddler Room and is really enjoying the wide range of activities on offer. There are no more tears at drop-off, which is fantastic for all of us!
Thank you so much to everyone at Marston Day Nursery for making his transition such a positive experience and for taking such wonderful care of him.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. Its wonderful to hear how much your sons confidence has grown and how happily he has transitioned into the Toddler Room. Im so pleased Ati, Francesca, Georgina and the wider team have helped make his nursery journey such a positive experience for your family.

Although she has unfortunately experienced several key worker changes, Hailey, her current key worker, has already built a wonderful relationship with her and has developed a great understanding of her. This brings us great comfort and reassurance. Hailey maintains clear and consistent communication with us and creates detailed, insightful assessments and observations, taking into consideration our discussions and identifying clear next steps to support our daughter's development. It's clear that she knows our daughter well and is invested in helping her continue to progress and thrive. We really value the care, understanding and support she provides.
Thank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. Its lovely to hear how much your daughter has progressed and how well Hailey has got to know her. Im pleased the care, communication and support from the team give you reassurance, and we really appreciate you sharing your experience with us.

We have had such a wonderful experience with the nursery since our son, Aanav, started last year. He really enjoys his time there and has developed so much since joining, both in his confidence and his learning. It has been lovely to see how much he has grown and how happy he is when he goes in each day.
All of the staff have always been so friendly, caring and welcoming, and we feel reassured knowing that Aanav is well looked after while he is there.
A special thank you to his main mentor in the baby room, Ati, who was absolutely amazing with Aanav. She has been so caring, patient and supportive, and we can really see the positive impact she has had on his development and confidence.
We are very grateful to the whole team for all the care, encouragement and support they give Aanav. We would definitely recommend the nursery to other parents!
Thank you for such lovely feedback. Its wonderful to hear how much Aanav has grown in confidence and developed since joining us. Im so pleased Ati and the team have made such a positive difference to his nursery experience. We really appreciate your trust in us and your recommendation.

My daughter joined the Marston Day Nursery in the babies room, under the guidance of Ati, Georgina & Shelby along with all the other amazing staff. Here she grew not only into a confident, determined and kind girl but the team allowed her to really express her true character aswell as building a great relationship with her key worker to bring this out of her. As she has transitioned now into Buttercups, she continues to enjoy coming to learn, play and socialise with everyone at the nursery.
Thank you for your lovely feedback. It's wonderful to hear how much your daughter has grown in confidence and how well she has continued to settle as she moves through the nursery. We're incredibly proud of our team and the relationships they build with each child, helping them feel confident, supported and free to be themselves.
We honestly couldn't be happier with Marston Day Nursery. Having our son start nursery was a big step for us, and naturally we were a little nervous about how he would settle being only 11months old, but the care and kindness he has received have made such a difference.

A special thank you to his key worker, Shelby, who has been absolutely amazing with him. She really took the time to get to know or son, understand him and help him feel safe and comfortable. She played such a huge part in helping him settle, and it was so reassuring for us as parents to know he had someone there who genuinely cared about him.
It's lovely seeing how much more confident and happy our son is now after only being there for 6months. We're so grateful to all the staff for looking after him so well, but especially to Shelby for everything she has done to help him settle in. We really couldn't have asked for a better start for him :)
Thank you for such wonderful feedback. Its lovely to hear how happy and settled your son is and how much his confidence has grown. Im so pleased Shelby and the team have made this journey such a positive experience for your family. Were very proud of the care and dedication they show every day, and your kind words mean a great deal to us.

I just wanted to say that my little girl has thrived being at the nursery, its been a journey to say the least, she struggled with the changes and getting used to the new routine in the beginning and all the girls were so great and supportive to her and myself as a parent. When she went up to preschool she fell in love with Jasmine and I couldn't imagine her journey at nursery without her, shes been a huge support for us both and just incredibly kind and patient with my little girl. All the girls are amazing at what they do but jasmine is my daughters safe place and has come on leaps and bounds with her. I feel so at ease when jasmine is there knowing shes in safe hands. Thank you all so much

We have had such a positive experience with the nursery. Our child absolutely loves going, which gives us great peace of mind and makes it so much easier to leave them knowing they are happy and well cared for.
The team are fantastic at keeping us updated, especially when our child first started. We never felt like asking questions or checking in was ever a bother, and they were always happy to keep us informed. They regularly share updates about our child's day, which we really appreciate, and it has been lovely to see just how much they have developed in such a short time.
Their key worker, Georgina, is brilliant. She is always responsive, approachable and clearly takes a real interest in our child's learning and development. We can genuinely see the positive impact she and the wider team have had.
We are really happy with the care and support our child receives and would happily recommend the nursery to other parents.
We've been absolutely delighted with our experience at the nursery. From the very beginning, the induction process was fantastic. The team took the time to make sure our daughter felt comfortable and settled, and kept us informed throughout, which made the transition into nursery so much easier for...
The best thing for us is seeing how much she genuinely loves going. She gets excited when we arrive and is always happy to go in, which gives us huge confidence that she feels safe, happy and well cared for. We've also been really impressed with the positive impact nursery has had on her development. We've noticed her confidence growing and she is constantly picking up new skills, words and interests. The activities provided by the staff are clearly making a real difference, while still allowing her to have fun and enjoy being a child. We couldn't be happier with the care, support and learning she receives. The staff are fantastic, especially Georgina their key worker

We absolutely love the nursery. Tiernan always has such a fun time and his key worker Jasmin shows exceptional care and dedication to his interests and helping him in the areas he needs help with in preparation for school next year. The sunflower room staff are all so supportive and friendly and Sophie and Hailey always give in-depth handovers and let me know what Tiernan's been up to during the day
The team are amazing at helping us with things we're working on at home, like potty training and language.

Our little boy started in May and everyone has been so understanding of his allergies and so supportive as we introduce new foods. He started off very quiet and has over time really flourished. He loves everyone there including Trinity, Reema, Abi, Ati and really everyone there. its just lovely how the whole team show an interest in him and remember what he might have done at the weekend etc.
I would highly recommend this setting. And even more so I truly trust the people there having my sons interests in mind!
