Review from Shane E (Father of Child) published on 24 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We can not recommend Hedgehogs, Hassell enough. Our Son goes 2x a week and walks in with such a smile on his face. The ladies that work there are all kind and very attentive. The communication is brilliant too which is also important to us.

Review from J W (Stepfather of Child) published on 5 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My little dude always comes back with a smile on his face, the staff are absolutely incredible with keeping you up to date with stuff throughout their day and how they are progressing with development from his speech, sensory development and his overall learning! Never had any complaints about his time there and probably never will, my stepsons time and experience there is their number one priority and that's all that matters to me.

Review from Coleen G (Mother of Child) published on 3 December 2025 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
I couldn't be happier with the experience at this nursery. The staff are approachable, caring and genuinely dedicated to child's wellbeing and development. My child has grown so much in confidence, communication and independence since joining. The nursery is clean, safe and always has engaging activities for the children. I always have regular updates and photos.
Thank you to all the staff at the nursery!

Highly recommended.
