View Full Details of Mulberry Corner Nursery & PreschoolThis nursery provides a good environment for children, and my child was happy there. However, I found their approach to supporting parents quite unhelpful and inflexible. When I started working and needed to change my child's sessions from four morning sessions to two full days, my request was refused - even though there was availability. They cited their terms and conditions, which require two months' notice for any changes or cancellations. Unfortunately, this meant I had to find a childminder for the afternoons, which was very difficult and stressful. I also had to leave work every day at lunchtime to collect my child and drop them off elsewhere, which caused unnecessary stress and extra costs. This countinued for two months! I believe a bit more understanding and flexibility from the nursery would have made a big difference for working parents.
We have had such a wonderful experience from the Baby Room right through to Preschool. The staff have taken the time to really know our daughter and support her at every stage of her development. She has grown in confidence, curiosity and independence, and we can see how much she is learning and thriving in their care. The warmth, dedication and nurturing approach to care from the team shines through, and it's reflected in the way she plays and communicates at home! We couldn't be happier with the caring environment the nursery provides.
My daughter has just moved on to the toddler room after leaving behind the lovely baby room. I had concerns that she may be worried going in to a new room in the mornings with new staff but as the nursery have done such a good job of integrating all the children and staff from different rooms during different times (outside play, movie afternoons) I've not had that issue and she runs in as happy as ever. So far I'm really happy with Mulberry Corner and most importantly so is my daughter.
My daughter is currently in the Pre-school room having made her way through all the rooms since she started in baby room 3 years ago! The team are great! They are always setting up new activities for the children to enjoy! My daughter enjoys her time in Pre-school and is always happy to talk through her day when she gets home! The staff are happy, enthusiastic and supportive! I would certainly recommend Mulberry to my family and friends.
I have found all at Mulberry Corner incredibly attentive and kind towards my girls. I was very nervous about them going to nursery but that nervousness was gone within the first couple of days of them starting due to how reassuring all staff have been. Thank you
Our daughter is currently in the pre school room and is absolutely thriving. The staff know her so well and she loves them all- she wants to invite them all to her birthday party! They do so many different activities with the children, including lots of baking and cooking which our daughter loves. We have another year until our daughter starts school but I have absolutely no concerns about her being ready for school as the preschool team support with this so much and ensure children are developmentally and emotionally ready for the transition. I couldn't sing mulberry corners praises enough, they are incredible!
My son absolutely loves Mullberry Corner. The staff are brilliant with him, always warm and friendly and care intensively for his needs. They provide a wide range of age appropriate activities suited to meeting developmental milestones and we love seeing the pictures or having updates on these as he achieves them. Great meal choices and snacks both of which are healthy and tasty! So pleased we choose this nursery and can't wait to watch him progress further as he gets older. Thanks everyone. Victoria
Really impressed so far with the nursery. We moved our daughter in May and we have already seen a huge improvement in her development. Love that the nursery offer a variety of activities and also food at mealtimes, they really care about the children and it's great that we regularly get updates and observations on pit daughter. Very pleased and would highly recommend!
Mulberry corner is a wonderful nursery. My daughter started in baby room at 12 months old and is currently in toddler room at 2.5 years old. She absolutely loves going to nursery and has made some lovely bonds with the staff in toddler room which makes it feel like nursery is an extension of our family. The effort the team put in to organising the numerous activities for the children and regularly updating the progress of the children is exceptional. I love seeing pictures everyday of what our daughter has been doing and she's always laughing and smiling. The Nursery's approach to child development is wonderful and our daughter's language and social skills have hugely benefited from attending. It is clear the staff are genuinely invested in the well-being of the children and their communication with parents about all aspects of the child's health and development is fantastic. We're very grateful to have found such a wonderful nursery!
Our little one has only been at the nursery for a couple of weeks, but we've already been really impressed. The staff are so friendly and approachable, and they've made the settling-in process much easier than we expected. We really appreciate the regular updates, especially on days when drop-off has been a bit emotional, it's so reassuring to know how he's getting on. The setting itself is lovely, with lots of fun toys and different areas for the children to explore. We're really happy with our choice and already feel confident that he's in safe, caring hands.
My child has been at mulberry corner for just over a year now and is developing beautifully. The staff are excellent, they are supportive and encourage him to learn in ways he wouldn't at home. He walks in with a smile and walks out with a bigger one! They have a lovely sized garden to play in, with 3 different areas inside for the children to progress through. The app is continually updated throughout the day with pictures. Sending him to Mulberry was definitely the best decision we've made!
My Daughter joined Mulberry Corner's babies room a few months ago and we are really pleased with the level of care and development she is getting from the team there. While there was a period of settling in, which we felt the nursery team really supported us with, she now gets excited when we arrive in the morning and always looks like she's had a busy and fun day when we collect her! Everyone who we speak to is really lovely and takes a genuine interest in her. We especially like the 'what next' for her developmental milestones, which really work and we have seen a huge improvement in certain areas of focus with this. The app is great for seeing what shes been doing during the day and also for keeping in touch when needed. Would really recommend this nursery!
Since moving from Bright Horizons my daughter has developed in leaps and bounds. She has developed some very advanced skills and speech. She always has a smile on her face when I pick her up and the staff are delighted to tell me about her day. She can't wait to go back in the morning. The management team and staff are very accommodating. They listen and explain any questions you may have. And if they don't have the answer or solution at that exact moment, rest assured they will get back to you. Thank you team Mulberry Corner
We have recieved an outstanding amount of support and I'm very happy to have my child at this nursery. He enjoys his time there and gains a lot from all the lovely activities provided. They are doing a great job at supporting his development and forming relationships. It's beautiful to see. Thank you!
Our daughter is thriving at Mulberry Corner Nursery! She has created strong friendships and developed many skills thanks to the nurturing and friendly staff. Everyday, we receive an update on how the day goes and parents can see lots of lovely photos of the activities, the children do so many different things and the activities are very original and creative (we often get to bring home homemade food or colourful masterpieces). They meet the needs of each child specifically, for instance they try to communicate in French with our daughter who speaks French and English at home. Parents are invited to workshops throughout the year like Mother's/Father's Day teatime or Christmas crafts afternoon. It's also with great pride that we read the regular reports explaining the new skills our daughter has acquired and what are the next steps for her development and how the nursery staff encourages and supports her learning. We are very happy and pleased that our child is looked after so well!
This nursery is incredible. My little girl started in toddlers only last week but I am so amazed by how incredible and understanding all the staff are. They really have, not only made my daughter feel so welcome but us as parents too. I look forward to my daughters journey here!
Amazing! Our daughter started when she was 2 and settled in really well. She is now in the pre-school and absolutely loves it. She is quite shy but hasn't had any problems settling or transitioning from the toddler room to pre-school. This is largely down to the excellent care and transition provided by the staff. The staff are so welcoming and always there to help. The nursery offers so many lovely additional extras such as inviting the parents on for events, cooking, walks to the park and visiting the local school to watch the nativity. She eats a wide variety of food and tries so many new things that we could never get her to eat at home. We are so happy our daughter attends this nursery and couldn't have asked for anything better. We are so grateful to all of the staff for looking after our daughter do well and with such kindness.
We send both of our sons to Mulberry Corner Nursery & Preschool and have always been exceptionally happy with how well looked after and cared for they are. Since each of them have started their development in all skills has excelled, as well as their confidence. Our eldest son is always asking to go to nursery and tells us all about his friends and is so happy there. It is a spacious and clean nursery with so much outdoor space which they are out in daily which is so important to me and them. We get so many updates in the way of photos and messages about their day which is so reassuring and I have grown to trust the staff there as they have so quickly got to know our boys and their individual wants and needs, I would highly recommend.
Mulberry Corner Nursery & Preschool has been an amazing nursery for my two children. The staff are great at communicating on the app, adding photos and description of their daily activities everyday. Food is good, both my children eat everything they give them. The staff all seem to really care and their passion for working with children and their families is really clear. The nursery provide ample opportunities for development however the amount of observations / documentation of development could be improved but I imagine this is down to time pressures. Regardless of this my children are happy and content there.
Very impressed with Mulberry Corner Nursery & Preschool and settling in of my son to a new nursery. Previously with another nursery and have found Mulberry Corner far superior and the staff are attentive and always available through the Family app. Would highly recommend, thank you for everything you do.
