Some staff appear demotivated. There was also a high staff turnover with often new staff we don't recognise looking after the children. My child had quite a few weekly injuries and one bad one which still can be seen after a few months! Some staff needs to improve their communication skills with
parents, totally no manners!

Kids 1st Quorum is an exceptional nursery. The staff are really fantastic, so patient and kind, and clearly care about all the children in their care. Furthermore, they actively seek out opportunities to help the children grow and develop. The managerial staff are friendly and professional, and are
also obviously heavily involved "on the shop floor" and know all the children by name. The food menu is well varied and offers a well-balanced diet. The nursery building is built for purpose and as such, it has everything you could think of, including large garden spaces for each of the rooms.
Thank you for making it so much easier to leave my child (soon to be children!) at nursery.

Thoroughly recommend this nursery, it is absolutely fantastic. The staff are amazing - so kind, caring and brilliant with all the children and parents. Each room has plenty of activities that are perfect for that age range. Activities and themes are changed regularly. So many opportunities are
provided - my daughter has been on trips out, had the chance to take part in amazing performances, tried a wide variety of food, taken part in so many different creative and fun activities - the list is endless. She’s grown in confidence, been so happy, we’ve been completely confident she is in the best possible care. Just brilliant. Just wish she could stay there longer instead of going to school!

VERY pleased we placed our daughter here.
Our daughter has attended every room, from the youngest kids (babies) to now where she is in the final room, a little over one year away from starting school.
Initially for two days per week, but most of the time she's attended for 3 days per week.
We did
look at a couple of alternatives, however we are extremely happy that we chose this nursery as our daughter has blossomed into a very rounded individual so far.
Obviously this is not ALL down to the nursery, we hopefully have something to do with it as parents, however we feel the nursery has had a large positive impact on her behaviour, education, and outlook.
The nursery is a welcoming and comforting place to be, and ALL the staff are kind, helpful, considerate and professional.
We cannot recommend it highly enough.

The standard of care offered at Kids 1st Quorum is second to none. The care they offer is personalised to each child and provide a safe environment where each child feels confident in progressing at their own rate. The staff are fantastic and take the time to get to know each child, even those
outside their own direct care.

I can not recommend Kids 1st Quorum highly enough, all the staff are so friendly and professional, my son settled so quickly and even as he moves rooms the staff make the transition so easy for the children. Food is excellent, activities help them develop and I’m so pleased that all the children are
in a happy nurturing environment.

I have a 4-year-old and a 2-year-old and both have been attending this nursery since they were one. Both boys absolutely love going to nursery, which is due to the fantastic staff and activities that they do with the children. The care they receive from the staff is second to none and the
communication between them and us is fantastic.
I can't recommend this nursery highly enough and I will be so sad when my eldest leaves to go to school.

My son has been to Kids 1st Quorum since he was 11 months and is now nearly 4. All the staff are fantastic, friendly and very approachable.
He enjoys all activities set out for the day and is encouraged to join in at all times.
The staff keep me well informed of his progress and any concerns if
they do arise. I have already recommended the nursery to two friends whose children now attend the baby room.
Great nursery, great staff and management.
20 June 2018
Family-friendly feel to the nursery.
Staff are approachable and always welcoming.
Thorough feedback of my child's day, development and care needs.
Impressed with learning and play activity split - currently with potty training help.
My child's learning and development (like self-care, speech and
language etc) has been enhanced by the nursery carers.
Overall very pleased with our choice of nursery.

We are so pleased we decided to go with Kids 1st @ Quorum. My daughter has made massive progress during her time there. The staff are all excellent and show real passion and commitment to the children. She really looks forward to going in and always has loads of fun and comes home with things she
has made or done. The nursery is also really flexible and matched our child care needs. There is never any trouble arranging additional hours if we need them. Overall 10/10.
20 June 2018
My daughter loves attending nursery and participates in a really large range of activities whilst there. I have been impressed with the dedication and expertise of all the staff and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery.
11 June 2018
I attended one of the parent playdates today in my 4-year-olds room and was so impressed at the effort the Nursery leaders put into developing and preparing the pre-schoolers for Reception. EVERY kid confidently stood up and spelt out their own names in a spelling exercise. There were educational
games, exercises that emphasised teamwork, and kindness to one another. The staff should be proud of what they’re achieving with the kids. I’m looking forward to seeing my 1-year old learn and grow in their environment too.
11 June 2018
Great nursery for both children who currently attend. Friendly staff. Children learning and developing well. Kids love attending this nursery.
11 June 2018
Excellent staff who have made our son very happy. Drop-off is very easy, he will willingly go to staff, which is lovely. All staff, not just those in his room are kind and know his name.
11 June 2018
Both of our children have now been through this nursery so we've had almost 7 years of the team's support and care. I can't speak highly enough of the staff and the facilities at Kids 1st Quorum. From our initial visit all those years ago we knew it was the place for our daughter and it's proven to
be a fantastic learning experience for her - the fact that all the staff still remember her by name and chat when she comes with us is lovely - nice touches that make this feel like a big family. Our son has now been through the nursery and had the same brilliant experience.
Purpose built and with great outdoor areas, the facilities are superb.
Whether it be questions or concerns about things our kids have been doing, or help navigating the 30 hours free childcare, the nursery have been fantastic and we'll be genuinely gutted when our son leaves later this summer to start school.

Kids 1st Quorum is a good nursery. It is clean and tidy, which is good for kid's health. There are lots of activities during the daytime, full of fun.

They provide the children with such rich and varied experiences.
Both of my children love their time here and have created such happy memories.
11 June 2018
My daughter has attended this nursery full time since January. The nursery is supportive, especially in the first few weeks. My daughter has settled well and has bonded well with her key staff member.
All the child based activities that my daughter does, seem to be interactive and enjoys them.

My son has been going to Kids 1st Quorum for just over a year now and he absolutely loves it. It’s the best decision we have made for him. From his first day, he showed huge developments and he learns so much. We love the large range of activities he gets to participate in every day and varied
selection of food he receives. He also thinks the world of all the staff he has come into contact with and enjoys seeing all of his new friends he has made.
31 May 2018
Wonderful facilities for pre-school children of all ages, all members of staff are friendly, courteous, knowledgeable and caring.
Children's educational and personal development is encouraged by them taking part in a range of enjoyable activities throughout the day.
All events (parent's
evenings, sport's days and play days) are well organised and well attended.
