Safe Haven is like home away from home for my child. The teachers are caring and friendly. The environment is very conducive for learning and my child has learnt a lot within the short period of being with them.

Both my children have been attending since January 2016, my daughter was in a previous nursery which I had to pull her out from for her safety and my son it was his first time being away from mummy but this nursery and all the staff and management have been nothing but welcoming to me and my children, neither have had problems settling in and both even though they are young you can see that they enjoying being at the nursery which is the best feeling for a parent, to know your children are more than comfortable in the environment they are in, not only that but they are both learning so much and have come out of their shell.

I am so in love with the nursery, beautiful, clean setting, wonderful management and staff, my daughter enjoys going to the nursery everyday, they always pay attention to details from caring to the activities, safe haven thicks all the bucket for me
The staff are incredibly kind, patient, and professional. They truly go above and beyond to support each child's individual needs while creating a fun, nurturing, and stimulating environment. My son has grown so much in confidence, communication, and learning since joining, and it's beautiful to see how happy he is every morning going in.
The activities are engaging and well thought out, helping children develop socially, emotionally, and academically. Communication with parents is excellent, and I always feel informed and reassured about my child's progress.
This nursery feels like a second home for my son. I am deeply grateful for all the hard work, care, and love they put into shaping young lives. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.

Thanks you really Appreciated and we love what we do
We recently enrolled our child at safe haven nursery, and the experience so far has been nothing short of wonderful. From the very first day, the staff made us feel welcomed and reassured. The team is warm, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do.
Our child settled in much quicker than we expected, which is a testament to the nurturing environment and thoughtful routines the nursery has in place. Communication has been excellent, we receive regular updates and photos that really put our minds at ease.
The setting is clean, safe, and engaging, with a great balance of structured learning and free play. It's clear that the children are happy and well cared for.
We're so pleased with our choice and look forward to watching our little one grow and thrive here!
Thanks so much for the review. Safe Haven is home away from home.
"This nursery has been an absolute blessing for our family. The staff are caring, patient, and genuinely love what they do. My little one runs through the door every morning with a big smile, which says everything! They keep us updated throughout the day and always take the time to share small but meaningful moments. It feels like leaving my child with extended family."
2. Focus on Education and Development
"We've seen incredible progress since enrolling our child here. The nursery combines play with structured learning beautifully-our toddler is counting, recognizing letters, and becoming more independent every day. The teachers clearly put so much thought into activities, and you can tell they understand how children learn
Over all I feel so grateful to found this Nursery and I would whole heartedly recommend to any parent looking for a safe space for their child to grow
With love
The staff are warm, professional, and clearly passionate about early years education. They know each child well and keep us updated daily with photos, activity summaries, and progress reports.
The balance between structured learning and free play is excellent, with creative, age-appropriate activities and daily outdoor time. The nursery is clean, safe, and thoughtfully designed to support development.
Most importantly, our child is excited to go every day - a true reflection of the nurturing and stimulating environment. We wholeheartedly recommend Safe Haven to any parent seeking high-quality childcare.
I'm a very protective mum, but the staff at Safe Haven have been able to put me at ease.
Absolutely recommend.
My son has been so happy since he resumed at the nursery. The staff are very warm and professional. I am so happy I decided to go with them, as I had initially penned down 3 nurseries in the area with close proximity to my place of work. My son has also adapted so well to the nursery.
Safe Haven Day Nursery has been a wonderful experience for our family. From day one, the staff welcomed us with warmth and genuine care. They treat each child as an individual, nurturing their strengths and supporting their growth with patience and love. The nursery is safe, clean, and filled with engaging activities that keep children happy and eager to learn. I've seen my child grow in confidence, develop social skills, and look forward to every single day there. Communication with parents is excellent, giving me complete peace of mind. Safe Haven truly lives up to its name a place where children are not just cared for, but inspired to thrive. I couldn't recommend it more highly to any parent looking for a secure, loving, and enriching environment for their little one.
Excellent standard , the environment is the perfect place for child to be looked after. The workers are very polite and nice. My child looks forward going to nursery everyday. More so value for money.
I'm a parent, and for the past few weeks since my child started at Safe Haven, she has continued to amaze us. I don't usually write reviews, but I felt I had to for parents looking for a safe and nurturing learning environment for their children. As the name suggests, Safe Haven truly lives up to its promise. Trust me ,you won't regret it!
Since July, my little one joined this Nursery, she seems very happy every time I leave her, she has learned many new things and has significantly improved others, thanks to the dedication and help provided by all the lovely staff. I feel grateful for keeping my baby safe while I am away.
