A really lovely nursery with such welcoming, caring staff. My boys absolutely love it here. It did take them a little while to settle in at first, but the team were incredibly patient and supportive throughout the whole process. Now they're completely settled, happy, and even run into nursery excitedly every morning - which really says it all.
I can truly tell they love the staff, and honestly, the team are just wonderful. As parents especially as working parents who had always kept the boys at home this was a big change for us. The nursery made the transition so much easier by being kind, reassuring, and very communicative throughout. It's such a relief knowing our children are safe, cared for, and genuinely happy in such a lovely environment. Thank you!! :)
Our daughter loves her time at Shire House. The staff are so welcoming and she settled in with no issues. She seems to be very busy and joins in with a range of activities each day. As working parents the easy transition made our lives very easy! Thank you to all!
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're delighted to hear that your daughter has settled in so well and is enjoying being so busy and involved in all the different activities each day. It means a lot to know that the transition was a smooth one for your family, and your kind words about our welcoming team really do mean a great deal to us. Thank you for being part of our nursery family.
A great friendly nursery ideally situated on the gerrards cross high street. A large play area with lots of outdoor play which my son loves. The staff are warm and welcoming and we are very happy here!
