Our little boy has been with the fire station nursery for over a year now and we couldn't be happier with how well he is cared for, how well he has developed and overall how happy and confident he has become.
The staff are nothing short of lovely and we've had such a personal experience despite
how clearly hardworking the staff are to support and care for all the children.
We are so impressed with his development and the pace at which he has achieved milestones. We also are really impressed with the food he has, it's always nutritious, well balanced and varied - it's almost always a clean plate so we think our little boy approves too!
The activities also seem to be really varied and fun, as well as educational and age appropriate to encourage key milestone development. Overall it's such a reassuring feeling knowing the level of care and attention our little boy has at the fire station.

My little boy absolutely loves the Fire Station. The staff have been amazing while he's settled into the Baby Room. Everyone has been so caring and so attentive.
There's lots of different toys to keep him busy and the crafts that they do are so cute.
It's lovely to see all the pictures of him
having lots of fun and it's very reassuring as a parent. Today he didn't even want to come home because he was having a ball! That's how I know it's an amazing nursery.
I would highly recommend the Fire Station to any parent looking for a safe, fun and nurturing nursery to take care of their child.

My son has started nursery this month and I'm so happy I chose this nursery! I knew from my first walk round that it was the right one, I never visited anywhere else. My son has settled in really well, he's exploring his room and always looks so happy on pictures. The staff in baby room are amazing
massive thank you to lily who is always so bubbly and happy to answer any of my questions. My son's key worker faith is amazing I only have to send a quick message and she's back to me as quick as she can!

My son has recently started at fire station nursery, he is SEN and non verbal. The nursery are a massive help for my little boy. We have struggled to communicate with him and they have helped him learn how to use a communication board and then & now boards. The staff are so reassuring for both
me and my son he's always been shy but since being there he's started to play along side other children which is a massive step for him. He's started to say little words as well. It's such a lovely happy environment he's loves to go in and has great bonds with the staff in the preschool room every single one of them are amazing and are helping with his development I cannot thank them all enough. From a mum that never thought she'd hear her child talk this nursery go above and beyond for the children.

My little girl attends Fire Station Day Nursery, I honestly couldn't be happier that we chose this particular nursery.
My daughter has developed so much hitting her milestones and beyond. The nursery team are second to none, they keep you informed with photos, they debrief at collection and
genuinely are some of the nicest people you can meet. My daughter genuinely loves nursery and is thriving. The care they give my daughter is like the care you would give family members, nothing is ever too much trouble. The nursery is clean & tidy and the facilities are great- Especially toy town! Not only have they been superb with my daughter but they have helped me out on multiple occasions by being so accommodating with early drop-offs or late pick-ups. I'd highly recommend Fire Station.

The staff are wonderful and really care for my baby as if he's their own. They are excited to see him, and to tell me all of the things he gets up to in his day. There are lots of opportunities to get involved with activities at the nursery and some also include parents. It's a lovely nursery and
I'm so glad both of my children have been here. I think it says a lot that the same staff from when I first went are still there now.

Amazing staff in Woddler room, excellent key workers making me feel my child is in the best hands. My daughter loves coming to nursery, the roon provide great activities to keep her occupied and engaged.

My daughter absolutely loves her days at nursery and it is all down to how wonderful the staff are. They are very attentive to my daughters needs and seem to really know her well. She enjoys the daily activities, indoor and outdoor play and even the food! My daughter is beyond her developmental
milestones and I must give credit to the nursery staff for helping her to achieve this. Thank you for you continuing hard work and support.

Our 2nd child that we have currently going through this setting and we wouldn't want to go anywhere else! Both my daughter (who is now at school) and my son is currently in the baby room, both of them have thrived at nursery thanks to the hard work and dedication of the staff and manager. The staff
in every room are wonderful, they are so caring and warm and the activities they come up with to engage the children are fabulous. Both of my children have felt safe at nursery and have enjoyed every day. My son gets so excited when he sees the staff in the morning, and he usually can't wait to greet them. The nursery is clean and tidy, the artwork on the walls is always well presented and clearly put up with care and pride. Communication between staff and parents/carers is brilliant. Not a single complaint.

One of the most significant decisions is where to place your child. I'd consider a nursery equally as responsible for a child's development after the age of one, and I am so grateful to the staff at the Fire Station nursery.
The staff engagement, facilities, activities, food-everything is
excellent. My child always has a smile on his face whenever I peek through the door during collection, and he knows the practitioners by name, saying he loves them all.
From the moment you're sat down with the manager, reviewing the facilities and signing the documents, to the day your child starts (and beyond), you feel so welcomed as a family, and nothing is too much trouble.
The safeguarding in place is thorough, which we recently experienced when my mother-in-law collected our child - the requirements were beyond a minimum expectation, and ensured that only the allowed and notified people are able to enter the building.
I'm so thankful to everyone at the Fire Station nursery.

My daughter thoroughly enjoys her days in nursery. She is well socialised and happy in the nursery environment, and her nutritional intake is great. I love the updates via the app during the day as to nappy changes, feeding times and nap times - this is a great feature which reduces my anxiety
whilst not with her. The staff are lovely and I can see that they really do enjoy working with the children. The nursery is clean and well presented, the outdoor areas are great and the selection of toys available in the age-specific rooms are very well chosen.
It makes me happy to know that my daughter is happy and well looked after!

Overall the nursery and staff are fantastic. My child seems happy, confident and comfortable there.
It would be good to see more detailed information on day to day / learning. Understanding what the children are learning and doing to prepare them for school

I have two children who attend the nursery. Both absolutely love attending and have developed so much since starting.
I recommend the nursery to everyone. We do travel from another area to the nursery only about 10 mins drive but it's worth it in our opinion you can tell the staff actually care
for your children.

The twins love going to nursery and accessing all of the learning facilities within the nursery. The staff in Pre School 2 their current room are fantastic and helped them come on in all areas of their learning and development.

My 2-year-old has been with Fire Station Day Nursery since he was 4 months old. He has truly thrived and developed within the nursery and I find him coming home learning and saying new things every day. The nursery nurses are great and cater to each child's needs. I can't recommend the nursery
enough we have had no problems in the last 3 years. Very friendly and accommodating.

My little girl has come on leaps and bounds at nursery and the Toddlers team are really helpful and caring and have her best interests at heart. She loves coming to nursery and it is great to see her climb the stairs and run to the door to go in. Thanks to all the team and everyone at the Fire
Station Nursery for your ongoing care and support

nothing but positive.

We've had the best service from Fire Station, from the nursery staff to management to accounts. Everyone is super helpful and responsive. The nursery itself is secure, clean, bright, welcoming and engaging. Our daughters love going to nursery, learning new skills, playing with new things and love
the outdoor space. The food choices are balanced and the girls have tried new things whilst being at nursery. We would recommend the nursery to anyone.

I absolutely love the fire station nursery and so have my 3 children that have been going for a number of years now. The staff have all been fabulous with our children, they take the time to understand and adapt to each child, ensuring their needs are met. I have had no problems at all for the whole
5 years I have been sending my children. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone.

We knew from the start that our daughter would be going to the Fire Station Day Nursery as all of my nephews and nieces have also attended there when they were growing up. When our daughter actually started we got to meet a lot of the staff, who are just brilliant and that goes for them all as our
girl is now in preschool 1! The staff have always helped us out whenever we've needed to adjust things, even at last minute, very professional and friendly, as for our daughter she's doing amazing with her growth in all aspects, always happy and smiling whenever we drop her off or picking her up, and it is all down to the amazing staff at the Fire Station Day Nursery, I would HIGHLY recommend this nursery to everyone without question!
