Milford Early Years Centre

This has been a fantastic nursery for our daughter. All the staff are kind friendly and fantastic at their jobs, the always put the children first. Our daughter has built excellent relationships with staff and fellow children over her nearly 2 years at the setting. They are always out and about exploring the local area and when they are in the setting their time is filled with creative activities and play.

Keep up the good work team!

We are very grateful to all the staff for their patience, hard work and genuine care. We would happily recommend this nursery to other families.

Even though my son hasn't wanted to say goodbye to mum or dad each morning at drop off, I know he is in such safe hands and I know he is going to be smiling again within minutes. The staff are so caring and attentive. I love this nursery as they go out everday, sometimes twice a day if the kiddies want to, they encourage adventure and outdoor play! I am very grateful of the staff looking after all of the children, they are all amazing! Thank you! The only reason why I cant give 4 stars is because of the size of the garden, it would be perfect if there was more outdoor space but thankfully they have so many places on their doorstep to walk to.

Milford Early Years is truly and outstanding nursery. I couldn't imagine a better place for my daughter to learn and grown. They are all extremely caring and nurturing. My daughter has learnt new skills, all thanks to the team. Its like one big family! I can't recommend it enough!

Five star nursery would highly recommend

My children have all had an excellent experience. It's encouraging to see the outings they go on, the activities the nursery arranges for families and the rapport and enthusiasm they have started to develop for nursery since moving here.

Our 2.5 year old daughter has been with the team at what was Milford Explorers and now Milford Early Learning Centre since she was 9 months old and to say she loves both nursery and all of the staff who make it so magic is an understatement! Children here are happy, encouraged and excited to be dropped off and full of the excitement of their days on collection. Staff form wonderful and unique relationships and bonds with the children and the children have such an enriched experienced by accessing and discovering the local community, wildlife and leisure spaces on a day to day basis. Olivia leads the team with incredible passion, dedication, care and compassion for staff, children and parents alike and no concern or question is ever a bother or hassle. We are so grateful to all the team for providing our daughter with such a magic start to learning and could not recommend this nursery more.

I feel very lucky that our little one gets to go to this nursery!

The staff are honestly amazing. They are so caring and you can tell they really adore the children in their care. My little one has some very special connections with her teachers.

The snacks always seem to be fruit based and the lunches are home cooked nutritious meals.

There is limited outside space, however when the weather allows there are outings every day to the beach/meadow/forest which my little one always talks about when she gets home!

Choosing a nursery was a huge decision for us, and we are so happy we found Milford Early Years centre.The staff are incredibly warm, caring, and professional. Our child runs in every morning with a big smile and comes home happy, which tells us everything we need to know. We love how they put the children's welfare and happiness first, creating such a lovely, nurturing environment with regular outdoor activities and visits to the local beach or park. They provide regular feedback and guidance to support our child's development. We have seen a great improvement in our child's confidence and development since joining.

My child started at the nursery in November 2022 under the previous management, and I often had concerns back then. Since the new providers have taken over, the difference has been amazing I honestly couldn't be happier. Every staff member brings something unique, always greeting each child with a smile and giving detailed handovers after each session. The activities are creative and varied, with new themes and learning opportunities every day. Amy, who's been there since my child started, is an absolute asset to the team. Olivia, the manager, is always approachable and makes time for parents. I love that the children go out into the community regularly, like to the library and local shops. It's a warm, nurturing environment, and I'm so grateful to the team for making sure my child is safe and happy at nursery.

An excellent nursery for all ages of children. A brilliant baby room where the children are extremely well cared for, stimulated and played with.Twinned with a great level of learning and fun in the toddler rooms. We feel very grateful that the staff are so attentive and caring and our children usually go into nursery happily, without a backwards glance at us! The children also eat very well with a range of food offered and will be outside in all weathers going to different parks, fields and woodland. A truly great early years centre.

Staff are fantastic, always polite, willing to help with any of our nursery questions and are fantastic with our little one. We especially love the fact the children are out and doing activities at the beach, park, forest and gardens. Our little boy especially loves doing at the beach or playing in the park.
