Centre Place Nursery

Centre Place has been an amazing nursery for my two little ones. The staff are so helpful, caring and supportive of both the children and myself. From the moment we came to view the setting it felt so welcoming and a place where children could grow in all aspects. The setting is always clean. The communication between staff and myself/family members is always clear and questions are always answered quickly/ clearly for all to understand. I have seen such growth in my children's development since they've been at centre place and it's all down to the staff and the fun activities they do each week.

My daughter has been going here for 2 years hands down the best nursery in Southend, the staff are so kind, attentive and patient my daughter loves all of them individually,they keep you up to date with what there doing, they send pictures of the activity, what snack they've had, it's also so clean the cleanliness is amazing, I've not had a single problem whilst she's been there I would 100% recommend

I couldn't be happier with this nursery. When I was choosing a nursery for my first daughter, I visited several places, but this was the one where she instantly felt comfortable and happily went off to explore on her own. That gave me such a reassuring feeling as a parent.

The staff are absolutely lovely - kind, patient, and always great at communicating. My experience was so positive with my first child that when my second daughter was ready for nursery, I didn't hesitate to bring her here as well.

I'm really grateful to the whole team for creating such a warm, safe, and caring environment for my children.

Hands down the best nursery we have come across. For us, centre place was more than just a nursery. All the staff were not only extremely professional but treated our daughter with care and affection. They went the extra mile and our daughter had a genuine connection with the team and the other children. We haven't come across another nursery where the staff aren't just doing a day job. Tara and her team were always contactable, any questions they'd respond straight away and our daughter loved it there. We hope to send our newborn there when she is old enough. There isn't anything we could fault the team and facilities on and we know we couldn't find another nursery quite like this one.

We can't thank the nursery enough for all they've done for our family. It's been such a positive experience, and we'll always look back with appreciation and fond memories. Highly, highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing, professional, and truly caring environment for their little one.

I was always met with happy staff which obviously makes a difference overall I really can't fault this nursery at all.

Very good nursery with lovely caring staff. You all do a wonderful job. The staff are hardworking and friendly, my child always looked forward to going to nursery. I am very glad I choose this nursery for my child

My child was registered there for just over a year. The staff cares about the children and make an effort to build relationship with the parents.

Thank you to the entire team for your dedication and hard work!

My son has additional needs and was always excited about his days here. The staff were amazing with him, really understanding of his needs and helped him massively with his progress and confidence. Staff are always happy and friendly, with good communications. Also get updates on their app about your child's day while they're there which was nice. He has now moved up into school but if Centre Place was still an option, I'd 100% have him back there as he was definitely much happier with these guys, goes to show how much they all did for him whilst he was there and how happy he was. I couldn't have picked a better nursery for him. They are the best! We miss you guys!

My daughter has really enjoyed being at nursery. She used to go in with no problems, running up to the staff and putting her arms up for a cuddle. She has really developed whilst attending, especially with her confidence and independence. The staff and management were always helpful and approachable. I also really appreciated the use of their app and being able to see exactly how my daughter's day had been.

My daughter is so happy at this nursery. Since she’s been there, she’s been such a happy child and well-engaged. I will definitely recommend for others to take their children there. The staff and management are great too. They are always ready to help with any questions I might have. So supportive and helpful in a lot of ways. I am such a happy parent because my daughter is happy at the nursery.

Best nursery ever, all polite and understanding and would definitely recommend to others, my daughter has learnt so much since being here in a couple of months. My daughter never wants to come home, she enjoys it so much.

My third child will definitely be joining the Centre Place Nursery family in September and I am so excited for him.

Great school. After changing my son from another school to this one, my son felt so welcomed. He’s very happy to be at this school. Teachers are very nice and helpful. They are so great about sharing moments of pride they see within your child – their good behaviours and achievements; and they know the importance of getting the parents involved should an issue arise, highly recommended.

Since my children have been attending the nursery they have really gained confidence and are developing new skills, their communication skills are improving, in fact, everything has improved since attending this setting. The staff go above and beyond to be helpful and kind and I feel my children will miss this place when it's time to move on to a new setting and so will I. Once again, I would like to praise the staff and management at this setting, professional all the time and so invested in each and every child, it's a beautiful thing to witness. Centre Place Nursery came highly recommended from my health visitor and other families in the area and I'm very happy my children are here, so a massive thank you to all the staff and management.

My daughter has been here since September 2021 and has thrived so much since being here. They have amazing staff and a good understanding of your child’s needs. Work with the family and support them. Recommend this nursery so much, I’m glad I put my daughter there.

Great nursery. The staff in the baby room are brilliant with my little girl, she has progressed so much after starting at seven months old, they have lots of different activities to do and a great outdoor area, the cleanliness is brilliant too. They constantly communicate with me and I love the app, I can see everything she has done that day and eaten and even her nappies.

My granddaughter loves going to nursery at Centre Place Nursery, recently she was diagnosed as autistic and the care they give my sensory seeker is outstanding. The handovers are easy as she is so excited to be there. They have things in place to deal with her special needs and work with me and the speech therapist on what we are doing at any one time. I am so grateful to them all for the care they have for her.

My 2-year-old son has learned a lot here. He has become confident in exploring and communicating. All the staff are super nice, the senior practitioner, nursery practitioner and deputy manager have been wonderful to my toddler. They not only look after my son but also provides ongoing advice on various matters which was very helpful for me as a first-time mother. They also have a lovely garden, my son loves playing outdoors. I can't recommend them enough for their genuine love for children, their affection and their sincerity.
