I'm delighted with the care my daughter has received since starting corner house. The staff in the teddies room are very attentive to her needs and are always trying hard to make her experience as enjoyable as possible. They go above and beyond to settle her if she gets upset at drop off and nap
time. Thank you ladies, I'm very grateful for everything that you do.

Corner House is a fantastic nursery. My daughter has attended for the past two years and it is like a home from home. The staff have been excellent in supporting her from her first settling in days, through transitioning rooms, and through any wobbles in confidence along the way. She has formed
close bonds with the staff who treat her with love and respect. They go the extra mile to make her time at nursery both fun and educational, supporting her development socially and academically.

We have had only good experiences when dealing with Cornerhouse nursery. Our son was thoroughly supported to settle in through a series of positive visits. The staff answered all questions and were great to deal with.
Since he's been there we've been hugely impressed with the range of
activities/experiences that the children get to take part in. The staff put in so much work to make sure each day is different and keep the children interested. They very quickly formed a positive relationship with our son and he is clearly happy when interacting with any staff. We would not hesitate to recommend this nursery.

Both of our boys attend Corner House nursery and absolutely love it. The staff are really lovely and make it a special place for them both. It is always overwhelming returning to work and putting your children to nursery but the nursery and staff have made this as easy as possible for our family. We
couldn't recommend them enough! Our boys love playing with the other children, nursery workers and learning news things. They are always so excited to go!

The staff at Corner House are absolutely fantastic. I feel extremely confident leaving my child in their care and am regularly updated with what he has been getting up to. The nursery promotes lots of outside time for the children and they often go on walks to the local park, they are constantly
kept busy and stimulated. This is the second child i have put through corner house and i am extremely happy with the level of care my child receives and the effort they put into his development.

I was a bit nervous about sending my little girl off to nursery, but I could not be happier with Corner House Nursery. All the staff are super friendly, and my little girl really enjoys her days there, playing and learning. She is a bright child, but we have noticed that her language and
communication skills have rocketed since she started nursery - she really is thriving in the interaction and activities that the staff provide. The fact that she is happy is proof enough that Corner House provides a nurturing environment for young children.

The staff are great and my daughter loves her days there. They do lots of learning and activities and I never feel she gets bored. The staff are always thinking of new ideas to keep them entertained and I love that they've started helping them with their letters.

Very friendly staff, always very accommodating. The teachers are always ready to help and to make the children feel welcomed. They are also very good at helping children manage their emotions, which we found very helpful. Messy play and outdoor activities/walks, are great.

Very happy with the nursery and staff. It's great to know that our daughter enjoys her time at nursery! Bespoked strategies for specific children's differences/requirements are much appreciated and makes a huge difference to development/adjustment.

We love Corner House Nursery, the staff really make it for us. All are friendly, exceptionally caring and create a loving family atmosphere. Communication is always fantastic and, most importantly, our daughter enjoys her days there and looks forward to going.

I have two children at Corner House, and during the last two years we have experienced great care in all four rooms.
My daughter started in the Robins at 2. She moved through to the Puffins at 3 and is now an Owl. She has always loved going to nursery, they spend time outside in one of three areas
each day, and sometimes go to the river or local playpark on excursions. They do a lot of themed topics about the world around us, and staff also follow the child's interests - she likes writing and crafts and the staff encourage her to express this. My son joined the Ducklings at 11 months, and the care was brilliant to help support him in the nursery environment.
The children are happy and learning lots, and it makes it easier to leave them while I work! The staff are great, many have been there a long time, and there are always lots of updates in the newsletter as staff complete training levels, showing a commitment to the children's care and learning. We are sent pictures/updates by app.

My son has been attending Corner House Nursery Banchory for over a year now and we are so happy. We changed nurseries after over a year which felt like a big risk but I am so relieved that we did and despite this nursery not being as close to us it is definitely worth the extra morning commute.
The staff are attentive and I really appreciate that they seem to know my son well, being able to tell me what he ate and whether he enjoyed it without having to check a sheet - it’s clear to me that they are spending proper time with the children.
He transitioned to the next room up a little over a month ago and I am pleased that this hasn’t impacted the level of care I feel he is receiving; the quality of staff is retained throughout all their rooms.
When we first joined I was told they thought of themselves more like a family which was cheesy but evidently feels really true.
I would recommend this nursery to everyone and hope my next child can attend next year.

My daughter absolutely loves her time at Corner House Nursery. She started when she was two. I thought she might struggle to settle being a lockdown baby but the staff are all so wonderful and she quickly built up bonds with each of them. This helped her settle so well and she’s thriving there. The
staff really do care about the children and make their time so fun. I recommend Corner House Nursery Banchory to anyone looking for childcare in the area.

Excellent nursery, highly recommended. The staff is very competent and friendly and children are well looked after. The manager is very friendly and accessible. Although the buildings are old, a lot has been invested to renovate and maintain it to a high standard. The outside play area was also
recently upgraded

Excellent nursery - a wide range of activities; from toys to role-play and academic learning too. Food is good, variable and healthy. A good balance of well-experienced staff and newer staff provides a good, caring environment. I like the outdoor area with the 'recycled ' playpark and its natural
material items are good for educating the kids to a more ecologic use of space.

We are thoroughly happy with the nursery. The staff are all very good with my daughter and all seem to know her well. They carry out lots of fun activities with her and she seems to really enjoy herself.
There are not really any areas of improvement that I feel we need to pass on. Any issues that
have been mentioned before seem to of been addressed and are in the plan for the improvement of the nursery.

Excellent nursery with fantastic friendly, caring, attentive and compassionate staff.
Feel that answers to questions via email could be improved. Have received a lack of communication regarding questions sent via email on a couple of occassions.

Celtic Cross is a fantastic nursery and we really feel like our child is not only in safe hands but is being encouraged and supported in her development. The staff are friendly and really do care about the children. Their activities are well thought through and I love that they will do simple things
like bring the children to the shop. Our daughter recently moved from one room to another at nursery and the handover was great with introductory settling in sessions and clear communications on what would be done differently. Times were organised for us to visit the new room and ensure all our questions were answered. Overall, I can't fault the nursery or staff and our daughter loves it.

Really loved nursery, my girls have really developed and transitioned well to the robins room. They really are settled and have so many learning opportunities to challenge them. Wonderful staff team who go above and beyond their duties and who are very friendly.

Lovely warm and caring staff. My daughter is very happy there. Lots of different opportunities for play and learning.
