One of the things we appreciate most is the attention they give to every aspect of the children's development. From healthy nutrition to a safe and engaging play area, everything is thoughtfully planned. The outdoor playtime is especially great - the children get to be active, build strength, and enjoy fresh air in a structured and fun way.
As a family where English is not our first language, the progress my son has made is incredible. I still remember his first day when he didn't know how to speak or understand English. Today, he speaks confidently, communicates well, and interacts happily with others. It's been amazing to see that transformation, and we truly believe the nursery has played a big role in that.
A special mention to Stacey - my son talks about her all the time.
Since my son has started at Dots and Tots he has become much more confident and happy. He is excited to go nursery everyday and has made great friends with other children.
He has learnt a number of things such literature from nursery rhymes to a variety of books; but most importantly social etiquette, which will help him when he moves up into primary school. He loves playing outside in nature, especially the mud kitchen and the activities set up help him with his coordination and to burn off that excess energy.
He will be deeply sad when he has to leave for school. I can't recommend ARH dots and tots enough for all the love and care they put into looking after all the children in their care, thank you.
We are so pleased to hear how happy and confident your son has become since joining Dots & Tots. Watching children grow in confidence, build friendships and develop a love for learning is exactly what we aim for...
The nursery has been a very positive experience for my child. The staff show care and dedication, providing a wide range of educational and stimulating activities. I especially value the encouragement of outdoor play, which greatly contributes to the children's development and well-being. It is clear that my child is happy in this environment.
However, I believe there are some important areas for improvement. Firstly, the lack of a separate room for rest time means that all routines take place in the same space, which can make it difficult for children to get the proper rest they need. A quieter, dedicated area for rest would make a significant difference to their well-being.
Additionally, I believe that nappy changes could be carried out more frequently throughout the day, ensuring greater comfort and hygiene for the children.
Overall, I would recommend the nursery, highlighting the care of the staff and the quality of the activities, but I hope these improvements will be considere
