Excellent place for my son! The babies are well treated, it is very inclusive and they respect our wishes and times. Carers are great and treat everyone very patiently. They teach well and my son learns a lot

Our son started nursery at Smarty Pants a year ago when he was 9 months old and we couldn't be happier! We have seen the positive impact straight away: his development and skills have been incredible since then. Everyone is incredibly nice and the communication is always clear and prompt, which means complete peace of mind as a parent. Thank you!

I was looking for a warm place with kind and loving people and this nursery certainly has it. My child loves it here. The teachers are incredibly caring and attentive, always doing their best to create a positive and stimulating environment. I have seen a wonderful growth in her confidence, communication skills and creativity. The activities are planned with such care and we really appreciate the regular updates and photos that allow us to feel part of her day. The environment is safe, clean and welcoming and the team fosters a wonderful sense of community between the children and families. Thank you, Smarty Pants, for giving our boy such a wonderful start in his early years of development. We are so grateful to have found a place where he is not only cared for but also encouraged to learn, explore and grow. We highly recommend it to any parent who wants a loving and inspiring nursery experience!

I had been searching for the perfect nursery for my daughter, as Smarty Pants initially had no available spaces. Thankfully, they later got in touch - and I'm so glad they did, as this is the nursery I had my heart set on since I was pregnant. I used to go past daily and could always hear the children enaged in learning/play, laughing and saw how enthusiastic and energetic the staff were, which left such a positive impression on me. My daughter started attending Smarty Pants at the age of one, and it was genuinely the best decision we could have made. The team supported her development beautifully - from her speech to all her other milestones - and she absolutely thrived there. She loved every day, and we were completely at ease knowing she was in such a caring, nurturing environment. I honestly can't fault this nursery; it exceeded all our expectations.

One of my children went to Smarty Pants and absolutely loved it, and my second child is there now - I honestly can't praise them enough! They are truly amazing. The whole team takes so much pride in what they do, and it really shows in the care, attention, and love they give to every single child. Both of my children have thrived thanks to the wonderful staff and the warm, nurturing environment. It's such a comfort knowing my child is happy and so well looked after every day. Smarty Pants isn't just a nursery - it feels like a family. I would recommend them to anyone looking for outstanding childcare.

We've been a part of the Smarty Pants family since 2016. My eldest daughter went there and my 2 year old has been attending since she was 6 months old and they helped with the transition brilliantly. They cater to the needs of all children, making it an exciting place for them to learn and grow. They've helped with her crawling, walking and speaking. Helped to develop her love of reading as well as exposing her to a plethora of activities and celebrations, fostering independence, curiosity and exploration. They have so many exciting activities that happen every week, following a monthly theme which is woven into everything they do and with a focus around early learning goals. They go on park trips and develop natural curiosity. My daughter is excited to go every day and has made solid friendships. We would definitely recommend them as a nursery.

My child started at Smarty Pants at the age of 2. From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Malisa helped settle my daughter in, and to our surprise, she had a very smooth transition - which was amazing considering it was her first time away from us. As time went on, my daughter had a fantastic experience at Smarty Pants. We briefly moved her to a different nursery setting, but eventually decided to return - and we're so glad we did. Aileen and the entire team were once again outstanding. They were always available to answer my questions and consistently put me at ease. I truly can't fault the management team - they were professional, accommodating, and extremely supportive throughout our entire journey.

Thanks a lot for everything! I did not make a mistake with the choice of kindergarten. The staff are very kind and pleasant. My child is very happy and cognitively came home. I saw changes every day, he began to speak very well and explain what he did. I am very grateful to you! And I can recommend it to everyone!

I have had my daughter attend since 11-months-old, and she is now 4 and has just left. Been such a great start for her, and she absolutely loved all the activities, and it has been amazing to see with the help of the staff how much she has progressed through learning and becoming her own little person. My son also goes here, and I cannot fault the care and the staff one bit!

Very friendly and caring staff. My daughter absolutely loves attending Smarty Pants. She’s always excited to see her teachers and tell me all the fun activities they have done with everyone. From a young age, she has been attending where she has learned beyond her age.

Lovely staff members, friendly environment, clean and comfortable. Meals are given to children on time and they are quite healthy. I like the fact vegetables are implemented quite often. My daughter's progress has been excellent.

Smarty Pants has been a wonderful nursery for our daughter - they are so lovely with the children and care so much for them. They also have great activities, food and facilities - and with the Famly app, we are able to follow more as well. I can't recommend this nursery enough.

Our daughter has been very happy at Smarty Pants, the carers were all very friendly and passionate about children. The toddler's room is big with lots of different play areas and activities change every day. Our daughter loved her key person and talked about her at home a lot. At first, she was quite reserved and timid but she grew in confidence thanks to the great staff at Smarty Pants. I would definitely recommend!

My son attended the nursery for a year from the age of two to three. I feel that his time there had an extremely positive impact on his life. His language and communication improved massively and also his social skills. He was given the opportunity on a daily basis to participate in a variety of multi-sensory activities which have helped to develop his understanding of the world around him and prepare him for formal education. This is all thanks to the wonderful, knowledgable, caring and supportive staff that work at Smarty Pants. They also helped my son to become fully toilet trained. The nursery is well organised and managed and you feel like you are leaving your child in safe and caring hands. My son loved going there each day. Every step is taken by staff and management to ensure the setting is clean and safe especially since the COVID outbreak. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery and I am planning to send my next child here when she is old enough.
