Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Riverside

We moved to the area a couple of months ago and had visited lots of nurseries, but this one really stood out to us. Every member of staff were welcoming and our daughter seemed to really enjoy her settling in sessions. She's been at the nursery for a couple of months now and we couldn't be happier, the team are so kind and supportive, she has formed really strong bonds with the staff in her room & loves going in every day. The nursery do lots of activities with her, music, reading, football - they even had chicks there during Easter!! She comes home beaming and telling us all about her fun days. It's everything any parent could wish for & we are super grateful for all the team at Riverside.

I had a wonderful experience with this nursery and would highly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing environment for their child. From the moment we first visited, it was clear that the staff genuinely care about the children and take pride in what they do. Every member of the team is polite, approachable, and always willing to listen to any concerns or questions.

What stands out the most is the level of attention each child receives. The staff are patient, kind, and very attentive, ensuring that every child feels comfortable, supported, and happy throughout the day. It's reassuring to know that my child is not only well looked after but also encouraged to learn, play, and grow in a positive environment.

The nursery itself is ,well-organised, and filled with engaging activities that keep the children stimulated and excited. Communication with parents is also excellent, with regular updates and feedback.

Choosing a nursery is a big deal, but we definitely made the right choice with Monkey Puzzle. Our son is so happy and settled; he genuinely loves the space and all the fun activities they provide.

We want to give a special mention to Alyssa, his key worker, who has been absolutely brilliant in helping him feel at home. The entire staff is amazing, and we are so glad he's in such a caring environment. Highly recommend!

My son started at this nursery last week and has had a very supportive settling-in period. The team explained everything clearly and took the time to gather all the information they needed about him.

He has settled in so well, thanks to the wonderful staff, engaging activities, and the genuinely kind care he receives from everyone there.

I'm a very happy mum and so glad I chose this nursery.

Monkey puzzle day nursery have been amazing with both of my daughters . One is in baby room and the other in Tweenies. They get so excited to go and since moving them from their previous setting they have come on leaps and bounds. The activities they have been part of so far in a short amount of time is amazing and would genuinely recommend them to anyone. The staff are so kind, I know that both my children are well looked after and cared for whilst under their care.

I can't thank you enough. Our Son recently joined after being at a different nursery and the difference is amazing. He gets excited about going, doesn't stop talking about his day and always asks if he can go again. Monkey nursery fun is his most used sentence now. Keep up the amazing work.

We moved our son here from another nursery setting recently and he's now like a different child. He can't wait to get out the door in the morning , and is always happy on pick up and talking about 'monkey nursery' and that he 'like it' to anyone that will listen. The staff are all so friendly and always so helpful and happy . Definitely recommend this place over any others in the area!

We are extremely happy with our experience at this nursery. The staff are always caring, friendly, and patient, and our child feels safe and happy every single day. The activities are creative and varied, and communication with parents is excellent - we always receive updates and lovely photos that brighten our day. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the team puts so much passion and care into everything they do. We highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a loving and professional environment for their child!

My son started at Monkey puzzle from the beginning of July for when I returned to work. I was hesitant at putting him nursery but the staff put me at ease from the beginning of contact with the staff. The show round was so informative. Then the settle in sessions staff were so warm and welcoming and put me at ease when it came to leaving my son for the session. From his first session I was worried he wouldn't settle straight away as it's a new environment for him but he loved it at nursery all day. Every time we are at nursery we are sent pictures on what he is up to throughout the day and they will inform us of any concerns. My son is now forming an attachment with the staff which I am happy to see.

We would highly recommend Monkey Puzzle Riverside, we couldn't be happier with the decision we made!

He loves the outdoor space and really likes the little activity bags he can take home to play with. We could not be happier with our choice.

My daughter is so happy here. She settled in really quick. The nursery staff is always friendly and welcoming. I also like the fact that they are posting my daughter's activities on Famly. This way I know she is fine and enjoying her time there.

The play facilities are amazing and also it's in the staff's best interest to encourage each child's development.

Excellent nursery would highly recommend it, my daughter loves going to see her friends and playing with all the messy activities. The staff are so welcoming and keep me updated throughout the day. Love hearing my daughter's stories about her day.

The setting has been done up very nice and vibrant, first thing I noticed when I visited. Staff are friendly and helpful. My son can't wait to go to nursery each day and whenever I pick him up, he doesn't want to leave!

My 11 month old son started here at the start of January and I couldn't recommend them enough. He has never shed a tear when I drop him off! They always send snapshot photos of him throughout his sessions and he's always smiling! The staff are so friendly and it's such a lovely, warm environment!

We are very grateful for everything the staff at Monkey Puzzle do for our daughter. Thank you for all your hard work.

This nursery is amazing, stress free on the parents with providing everything, and keeping in contact so you know exactly what your child has done, eaten etc. I feel privileged to have my child there and he loves it there he's super happy, I'd recommend to anyone in the area.

My child goes to school happy and enjoys the time with his friends. I did see excellent development in him such as great count numbers, mixed colours and as well he is gaining perfect way how to express his self.

Lovely nursery the staff and really kind and have a good relationship with my child, she is always happy to be dropped off! They have lots of different toys and also have focused on her learning. The nursery are also very good at catering for her allergy.
