There are not enough words to express how happy and love we have for The Gingerbread House. The activities and sessions that are provided to the children are incredible and challenge all aspects of their development. The transformation of the outside play space is phenomenal. With each age group having appropriate outside space and play equipment for them. A huge thanks goes to all of the staff who work tirelessly everyday and because of this our sons language and communication skills have come on leaps and bounds. They encourage him to talk about his feelings, things that he sees, things he is doing and this has all helped to develop his speech. The app is really easy to use and we can communicate with the nursery easily throughout the day. There are daily observations, often with pictures, which gives us something else to show our son and to talk about at the end of the day.
"Thank you so much for your wonderful words. We're delighted to hear how much The Gingerbread House has supported your son's growth and development. Our team takes great pride in creating a nurturing environment, and it means the world to know the activities, outdoor spaces, and daily updates are making such a positive impact for your family."
Our three kids absolutely love it - they go in smiling every single day! The staff are warm, nurturing, and genuinely affectionate. It feels more like a second home than a childcare facility.
We've seen such wonderful progress in all three children since starting - emotionally, socially, and even academically. The activities are creative, and they often involve parents too, which we love.
The manager, is fantastic - always supportive, responsive, and the kids adore her.
Truly a special place - highly recommended

We are very pleased to have found this nursery for our daughter. Their biggest strength is their wonderful team who are loving, caring and so full of energy every day. They made every effort to settle our little one well into the first few days of the nursery and continue to do so. My daughter loves going to the nursery as there are so many activities that she enjoys doing at the nursery. The Mother's Day afternoon tea they arranged was a really sweet gesture and a good way for mums, children and staff to get together. All in all we are very happy with the team and the setting.
Thank you so much for your kind words and thoughtful feedback. We're absolutely delighted to hear that your daughter is enjoying her time at the nursery and engaging in all the activities.

The Gingerbread House Nursery is a wonderful place comprised of a passionate and dedicated group of people! I had the absolute pleasure of interacting with the staff while recently visiting with my nephew and sister from abroad. It's apparent that they are incredibly kind and care deeply about the development of the children. It's obvious that my nephew enjoys being there - he's actively engaged and is connected to the staff members. Being present at drop-off and pick-up during my visit, I also appreciate how the nursery prioritizes children's safety. My sister often shares the detailed updates the staff provides outlining my nephew's learning, and it's truly amazing what they notice day-to-day. I'm also frequently blown away by what he knows and has learned so quickly, and I believe this is largely due to the tremendous support of the staff. So grateful that he's in such great hands! Thank you so much to everyone at The Gingerbread House Nursery!
Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful words about The Gingerbread House Nursery! It means the world to us to know that our passion and dedication to the children's development and well-being shine through.
We called and booked an appointment and we were shown around the whole nursery, explaining the different areas for the children as they progress through the nursery and at the end of the tour explained how everything works, from payment to what the nursery could supply and what we needed to provide.
We received advice on settling in sessions which was invaluable and the staff's knowledge on how to best settle in was fantastic and reassuring.
Our son has been at The Gingerbread House for nearly 1 year now and I am very happy, knowing he is been well looked after and developing.
The management of the nursery are flexible, fair, have a passion for looking after and developing children and are always happy to help.
I would highly recommend The Gingerbread House.
Thank you for sharing your heartfelt experience as first-time parents with The Gingerbread House Nursery! It's an honor to be part of your journey and hear that we've earned your trust.We understand how daunting it can be to choose the right nursery for your little one, and we're thrilled that your...
We had to move our son to a new nursery due to the old one not being able to accommodate all the days that we needed. We came across The Ginger Bread House and they were so accommodating and professional. It was always going to be hard for him to transition to a new setting but the staff were all brilliant in getting him settled in. For us it was a difficult decision to make, to move him from a nursery that was equally as good but we are glad that we have found a nursery of the same high standard. They have a very varied meal plan, along with lots of activities for the kids from Yoga to French and Athletics. We highly recommend anyone looking at The Ginger Bread House for their son or daughter.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with The Ginger Bread House. We understand how challenging it can be to find a nursery that meets all your needs, and we're thrilled to hear that our team was able to accommodate your son's schedule and make his transition smooth. It's heartwarming to...
My girls have been here for just over a year now and they absolutely love it! They have learnt so much and always come home chatting about their day. The staff are lovely and we have never had any issues.
Thank you for such kind words they have blossomed so much here at the gingerbread house and the independence is evident
My son started nursery in September, I've seen him change so much and become a little character who always comes out smiling. Staff are all friendly. Nursery is clean and tidy. Food is prepped at the nursery.
Aww thank you, he has progressed well with his confidence, such a little toddle now, walking in all by himself says bye. We pride ourselves on supporting our parents with a home-from-home feel and will support where we possibly can.
Went to Gingerbread House Nursery's Christmas event. It was amazing, our little one had a lovely time. There was so much going on, toys, Christmas activities, seeing Santa. But not only that staff were so welcoming and friendly.
Thank you Victoria it was lovely to see you there, please come back anytime. Thank you for your kind words.
My son has settled in very well and is happy to see the staff as they take him in each morning. He seems to be really enjoying his time there as we see from the updates sent through the app. We were apprehensive about starting a nursery but we feel happy sending him in each morning, knowing he's having a great time. He loves music and so has really been enjoying the mini notes music lessons they offer. The staff are great about giving updates on how his day has been at pick up too, and it's lovely to hear what he's been doing without us during the day.
Thank you for such lovely feedback, he has settled well and is a very clever boy, even using Makaton to sign for what he needs or even showing a member of the team. Thank you again for your kind feedback.
Our son absolutely loves going to the nursery. In fact, he was talking about going into the nursery to play with his friends and do sing songs every day over the Christmas break.
The staff here really goes above and beyond. They organise different events through out the year for the children and parents. We have had summer fair, Halloween party, autumn assembly, Christmas Carol and recently, a Christmas party.
Throughout the day, we get photo updates and observation updates. You can tell the staff are really passionate about the children's development.
I honestly cannot recommend the nursery enough.
Wow! Thank you so much for such thoughtful words. We thrive on extending on the children's learning as well as supporting there confidence.
What a wonderful nursery! The staff always go above and beyond. We attended the Christmas fair, there was gingerbread decorating, a tombola and there even a visit from Father Christmas! My son (18 months) just loves it there, especially the music classes.
thank you for your review, your son has made amazing progress and has grown a lot in his confidence, as well as his physical development. we thrive on including our families in some great extra curriculum events, which support you all with the ability to socialise with other parent and maybe prospective parents.
I attended a Christmas event at the nursery and it was fantastic! The Santa and elf were lovely and welcoming to my children and they got a gift at no charge which was amazing. They had different activities set up around the room including gingerbread decorating and colouring in and some extra games at small charge. Overall it was a lovely experience and Elsa made an appearance too! Lovely little nursery, very clean and well maintained with friendly staff.
Thank you so much for your feedback, I am glad you had a great time, it was lovely to meet you.
My 3-year-old has been attending nursery since 1.5 and never fully settled anywhere. His last nursery he cried every single day without fail, cries I've never seen from him and that was for a good 2.5 months. From the moment we walked into gingerbread he high-fived one of the staff members and ran off to play. He stayed that very same day and waved me off. Every morning he just walks in the gate and waves me off, not a tear in sight. He always comes home in such a good mood and all the girls are so lovely. This was the setting I had been looking for all this time, so thankful to have come across it!
Thank you for such kind words, he is doing really well.
It's a great environment for any toddler to start their education path. My baby is always happy and smiling when he attends. Staff are very professional and caring. I am very happy with the attention my baby is given.
Thank you for such a lovely review, it has been lovely to have him back this week we missed him when he was off. He is coming on really well with his development and is making great friendships.
I recently had the pleasure of dropping off and picking up my grandson during my visit from Canada. The staff were very kind and welcomed both me and my grandson every morning. It was wonderful to witness how happy he was to go with the staff! He was equally happy (and singing) at the end of the day - clearly having had a good time. It was also reassuring to read the daily reports about what he was doing at nursery, so we could talk to him about it too. Thank you Gingerbread House Nursery staff!
It was a pleasure to meet you and you can see how much love he has for his grandma.
My nephew comes to The Gingerbread House Nursery and I couldn't have more positive things to say. I first went by to pick him up this past October and was immediately pleased with the set-up due to the safety measures taken. Additionally, the staff are incredibly kind, communicative, and appear in-tune with the children and their individual needs. I love the app updates throughout the day about my nephew and value The Gingerbread House Nursery's transparency. Thank you for keeping him happy and supporting his growth!
This is great to have such lovely feedback, it was lovely to meet you and see you on collections.
The staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely nurturing. They've created an environment where she feels safe, supported, and encouraged in her development. We're so grateful for the wonderful team at The Gingerbread House and couldn't recommend them more highly!
Thank you for your kind words, we thrive on providing a home-from-home feel for the children and ensure they thrive in their development, she is starting to say a few single words now 'cheese' being one of them clearly likes the camera.
My daughter loves going to nursery and even after a 6 week break, she was eager to return. This just shows how much fun and support the nursery provides for her. I am so pleased we chose Gingerbread House and wouldn't change it for anything.
Thank you for such lovely words, your daughter has grown a lot in her confidence and has made many friends, this helps to ensure that smooth transition back into the setting after a long period away. We look forward to seeing you back after the half term and looking forward to hearing about your holiday.
