View Full Details of Clever Clogs Day Nursery (Belmont)I cannot recommend Clever CLogs enough! The care and attention given to our daughter is second to none. I feel like they really take the time to get to know our daughter and tailor their support to her. Thank you!
Clever Clogs nursery is excellent value and the staff are really professional. Super clean and the facilities excellent. I would recommend them to anyone.
Very friendly staff, my little boy loves coming and always has fun. Very useful app to keep informed of activities during the day and messages.
Clever Clogs Belmont is a really good setting with generous space for children to play and learn, both inside and outside. The staff are very helpful, patient and kind, with a lot of experience. They always create fun environments with a great variety of activities. Staff are very organised and I find it very easy to find my child's belongings. Rooms and external spaces are always clean and clear. My favourite thing about the nursery is the ability to check my child's progress from the app, whilst seeing photos and messages from staff.
My daughter attended Clever Clogs Belmont fun club during the summer holidays. After each session my daughter was full of excitement, telling me what she had been doing during the day. The teachers always have a detailed positive feedback and made my daughter feel so welcome.
As parents, we highly rate the nursery. The care and service for our child is exceptional. All staff and facilities are brilliant. Our child has progressed hugely since starting Clever Clogs Nursery.
I would not want my daughter to attend any other nursery! The staff are amazing and truly care about the children. My daughter loves coming here, and I know she's safe and looked after.
Clever Clogs have totally helped us settle at such a critical age. It isn't easy just leaving your child, but Clever Clogs have made it a walk in the park. The app is so helpful and informative, especially when he can be out up to 8 hours. The range of food is amazing as are the activities they provide. In terms of safeguarding, the processes CC have for entry and exit to the building are great. Lastly, the staff are just brilliant. My son is so settled with all of his room staff, and they are exactly what you'd look for in childcare. Thank you!
My daughter has attended for 9 months and I have been amazed by her progress. Her confidence and independence have improved massively, as well as her social skills and development. The staff are friendly, communication is excellent and I feel very comfortable leaving my daughter in their care, knowing she is safe.
Since starting at Clever Clogs, we've seen a massive improvement in our little ones' social skills and taking. As a little one with a speech delay and sensory issues, we are over the moon with how the staff have supported.
My daughter has settled in really well at Clever Clogs. She always experiences different activities and loves to get messy. The communication is always prompt and in-depth.
Staff are very friendly, and my daughter is progressing each time she attends. The back office team are very attentive and responds to queries promptly.
My son started at Clever Clogs in May this year. He absolutely loves going now and it's great to see his development journey. He has come on so much both physically and speech wise. The activities that they do with the children are so varied and creative and he regularly brings home paintings or drawings that he has done. We get regular updates on what he has eaten during the day, nappy changes and sleep times. Whenever I go to pick him up he is sad to leave. Communication is excellent and you get a detailed update of what the children have been up to that day.
Our child is very happy at Clever Clogs. The staff are very nurturing and provide ample opportunities to develop our little one. Thank you!
This is our second time around with Clever Clogs and we wouldn't have gone anywhere else. The whole nursery has such a warm lovely feeling from stepping through the doors. Staff are so patient and helpful not just with the children but with the parents too. They always go above and beyond. Everything is always well documented on the app so we are able to see how our little one gets on during the day. Nothing is ever too much for them and our little one loves going to nursery, she's come on leaps and bounds since starting. The food is fantastic for the children really hearty nutritional home cooked meals. The facilities the nursery have are also fantastic in and outdoors and no matter the weather the children can enjoy learning and playing in and outdoors, with lots of very well thought out activities to do, we are so happy we chose this nursery again!
Our little boy (10 months) started at the nursery in September. He was offered as much settling in time as necessary and the staff have made sure the transition has been really smooth. He loves going to nursery and is thriving since starting there. All staff are warm and friendly, and there's a lovely atmosphere inside the rooms. The communication from staff is brilliantly, we can tell they care about our little one from the warm welcome he always gets! We would recommend the nursery to all parents!
My little boy has been going to Clever Clogs since August 2025 and has settled in really well. He's always in a good mood when I go to pick him up and has already developed a lot since he started - he recently started walking! All the staff are lovely and the communication via the app is great. No complaints!
My little girl has been attending Clever Clogs Nursery since August 2023, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience. From day one, the staff have been absolutely incredible - warm, welcoming, and genuinely dedicated to the children's well-being and development. They've created such a nurturing and supportive environment where my daughter feels safe, happy, and excited to learn every single day. The progress she has made since joining has been amazing. Her confidence has grown so much, and her social skills have flourished. The activities are engaging and well thought out, and it's clear that the team put so much effort into making learning fun. Communication with parents is excellent too - we're always kept up to date and feel very involved in her journey. It's reassuring to know she is cared for by such passionate and professional staff. I cannot thank the Clever Clogs team enough for everything they do. I would highly recommend this nursery to any parent.
My second child to attend the nursery and I can't recommend enough. Staff have really supported my little one transition into their care. I always get a detailed report on pick up and the staff are always happy to answer any questions. Overall the facility is one of the best I have attended. I've looked around and my first child attended another nursery prior to transitioning and by far this nursery had a much more welcoming and supportive atmosphere. The facilities are great and there's daily activities that stretch the children's minds. You also get access to an app so you have direct contact with your child's key person and you get to see how they've eaten and napped etc.
My daughter has been going to Clever Clogs since January 2025 and has come on leaps and bounds since stating. She has become more confident, talkative, outgoing and is now walking. The staff are friendly, considerate and really do care about the children they work with. Any issues they check with us and the app is amazing for seeing what your child does during the day!
