Really lovely nursery with lots of extra provisions for the children and great staff! Our child moved from another nursery, which we were slightly apprehensive about, however she settled in really well and absolutely loves The Gingerbread House.
Thank you for your kind words, the transition was really smooth, the confidence she has walking in with her bag on, ready for her day. She loves mini notes sessions and joins in with the actions.
My daughter loves the nursery she's always excited to go and always comes out happy and in a good mood. She tries different foods that she won't try at home and loves all the staff members, they are very polite and kind.
Thank you for your kind words and support. Even now she is in the afternoons this doesn't phase her, she has took it in her step to involve herself in everything. May I add even sometimes doesn't want to go, due to her having so much fun. It is amazing how much the nursery supports children with their appetite, when they see what their peers are eating.
We couldn't be more pleased with our daughter's experience at The Gingerbread House - It's the perfect nursery for the village. Our daughter's confidence & skills have come on so much in the time she has been there, I wasn't confident she would receive the same time & attention at larger nurseries we viewed. She was a year and a half when she enrolled at The Gingerbread House & we noticed an improvement in every aspect of her development almost instantly. Photos & updates throughout the day are very reassuring too - our daughter is always excited to go there. We will send our second child there also, we couldn't recommend it enough.
Wow! What a lovely review thank you so much. She has exceeded so well with her confidence and development here at The Gingerbread House.
The team at The Gingerbread House is fantastic. We get updates on the app throughout the day and they have different activities including music, sports and dance classes for the children. Our son absolutely loves it here!
Thank you so much for such a kind review. We try our best to provide as much as we can to support each and every individual child.
All the team at Gingerbread House Nursery have been fantastic! My daughter was never easy to hand over but as the weeks have gone by, the team have dealt with her amazingly well. Showing her comfort and attention has really helped her progress. All the team have been so calm and never once caused an issue with it. Keep up the amazing work!
Thank you for such great feedback, she has blossomed so much with her development, especially with her language.
My son has recently started going here, as a first-time mum you worry whether it's the right choice but I've seen such a difference in him. I'm very happy with how the staff communicate, it's always clean in both rooms.
Thank you for such lovely feedback, he has come on really well and is now settled into the routine.
My child thoroughly enjoys attending The Gingerbread House. She has always been made to feel very welcome. The staff are fantastic.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, she is becoming a very confident and independent little girl.
Staff are very lovely and great communication and very approachable. My daughter always comes home hope. I love the extra things they do like visits to the park and outside companies they hire in. Overall a great experience so far.
Thank you foe such lovely comments, we thrive on exploring our community.
The staff at The Gingerbread House Nursery have been wonderful from day 1. Our little boy started attending in January 2024 and it has been amazing to see him grow and flourish. Even as a premature baby, we have seen his development been well supported and cared for. The staff at The Gingerbread House Nursery have assisted him every step of the way (literally!) by helping him hit those milestones and he continues to be more curious and inquisitive every day! The schedule of activities and meals they prepare are always varied and it's wonderful to see all his updates during the day, via the app with pictures and comments. Thank you Gingerbread House Nursery, you have made the transition for returning to work so much simpler!
Wow what can I say what lovely, kind words. We support every child to achieve their full potential and he has particularly grown in confidence as well as physical development.
My daughter has been attending Gingerbread House since she was just 9 months old, starting in September 2023, and we absolutely love it here. The entire team genuinely cares, and their dedication means so much to us. We truly couldn't imagine life without the amazing Gingerbread House team - thank you all for everything you do!
Bless you, thank you for such lovely words. She is developing really well.
The staff overall seem good. My son only started last month, but has been very welcomed and he loves it.
I personally think staff could/should improve on tone of voice/language towards the children. I don't think any staff should be shouting at toddlers but overall what I have seen they seem good.
Thank you for your lovely review and raising your concern. We take behaviour management very seriously, we all know children sometimes do unexpected things in excitement or otherwise and as experienced practitioners we have to use various different tone of voice for children to understand what they...
A fantastic setting, very friendly staff who really care and take the time to get to know your child. All the staff at The Gingerbread House Nursery are lovely, they have taken the time to get to know my son and what he likes/dislikes. They understand his personality and always have time to give him a “hug” if he needs one in the morning or sing songs with him so he can show off his moves! I regularly get updates showing how happy he is through the day playing with a mixtures of resources (both indoors and outdoors) which I love to see. He also goes to the staff for cuddles and looks to them for reassurance which shows the trust and connections they have formed with him. I honestly thought it was going to be the hardest thing ever settling him into a nursery but it’s actually the best thing I’ve ever done. Thank you so so much for all the love and support you all offer to my little boy, it means the world to me that he is in such a wonderful environment every day whilst I’m at work.
Thank you so much for your lovely words. We are so amazed how much he achieved since he started with us. We can't wait every morning to see his cheeky smile and dance moves.
My baby loves to spend every moment there.
Loving and caring staff, always keep me updated about my baby's day.
I can't recommend them enough, we are so lucky to found them.
thank you for such kind words, he is thriving so much in his development already in such a short period of time
The staff are very professional and kind.
Looking after our baby very well and love him.
I'm very happy we found them.
Thank you for such lovely words, we all try our best to provide the best care for all children and we are so excited to see them thrive.
My daughter has attended the setting for just over 1 month and so far we have had a great experience. The staff are really friendly and the baby suite has been set up to meet the needs of the younger children. They seem to be doing very well here.
Thank you so much for such a lovely feedback. We always strive to do our best ??
The Gingerbread House Nursery is such a wonderful nursery. The staff are amazing and they are always so helpful and caring. My daughter not only loves going here but is thriving here aswell. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.
Thank you so much for your feedback. We thrive on giving all the children quality care and support. We are glad she's loving it.
I like that they always keep me in the loop about my child's development. They do athletics and musical mini-sessions every week. They are easy to communicate with and they are able to comfort my daughter when she feels emotional.
Thank you so much for your review. We ensure that our children learn while playing and enjoying their time at the nursery. We make every effort to give all our children as much comfort as needed. Thank you for your trust once again.

Outside of work, I find balance in hobbies like walking, styling hair and hitting the gym.

My name is Nipa, I chose the childcare profession because I love to spend time with children, I love to see them grow laugh and smile.
Choosing childcare as my profession wasn't a career decision it was a calling that resonated deeply with my heart. from the moment I stepped into this field, I knew I found my true purpose. every day I am filled with joy and fulfilment as I witness the growth and development of the children in my care, their laughter, curiosity and boundless energy inspire me endlessly. the trust that parents place in me to nurture and guide their little ones is a responsibility I cherish deeply. It's more than a job it's a privilege to be a part of their early years, helping to shape their future with love and dedication. the impact I can have on their lives and the bond we create is a reward beyond measure
