Our son and daughter have attended Banana Moon Harbury over the years from baby moons to mini moons and have both really enjoyed their time there. The care has been fantastic - all of the staff are so caring, friendly and keep us updated after each session. We've always felt we can trust the team and that our children are being well looked after. It's also great to have the app to see what activities they're getting up to and eating etc each day. Healthy hot meals cooked on-site is a bonus. The nursery is also managed brilliantly with clear communication and easily contactable on site or by email/phone if you need anything. We are always kept in the loop with the latest information and everything is very organised and safe. Couldn't have asked for any more & we highly recommend this nursery!

We've attended this nursery for nearly 4yrs, and are very sad to leave as our daughter starts school soon. Over the years the care our daughter has received has been fantastic, all of the staff are so invested in each child and take such an interest in their different personalities. We've never had a day when our daughter doesn't want to go and she always comes out keen to tell us all the exciting things she's been up to. This nursery feels like an extension of our family. It's a big decision as a parent choosing somewhere to care for your child and Banana Moon has never made me doubt that decision. Friendly, warm, nurturing and with excellent food. They've been instrumental in developing our daughter over the past four years and because of the work they do she's more than ready to tackle her next phase of life within school.

I can't speak highly enough of Banana Moon Harbury. I began fostering my great niece just over two years ago and consider myself extremely fortunate to have found Banana Moon (luckily my sister-in-law who worked in childcare recommended them) - well worth the half-hour round trip to get there. My great niece has loved going there which was extremely important considering what she was going through. The quality and variety of food provided is excellent and all of the staff have been brilliant with both my great niece and myself - friendly, supportive, easy to talk to and professional. I also have to express my sincere thanks to the nursery manager who has continually shared her knowledge and advice when requested and has always taken onboard any of the information or requests I've shared despite the complications that our situation brings with it. The owner has also been extremely supportive and understanding throughout. I cannot recommend Banana Moon Harbury highly enough.

Banana Moon Harbury has been fantastic at supporting my daughter. The staff have got to know her so well, and they are nurturing her personal growth and development in a way that makes me so proud that she attends this setting. Communication both through the app and face-to-face is very good, and their written observations have really helped us to support our child.

We currently have two children at Banana Moon, one who is moving on to a School affiliated pre-school - however, this decision was a really difficult one to make as we absolutely love Banana Moon! Our children have absolutely thrived at Banana Moon, and we never have a day where they do not want to go in! The love, care and nurturing given is second to none, not to mention the wizardry cooking of the chef who dishes up meals that make us want to go and join for tea time! Our children are always embraced, encouraged and celebrated by every member of the team. Chosing a nursery is a huge decision, but Banana Moon is a setting we would chose over and over again.

Caring staff who take the time to get to know your child and always have useful information to fill you in on when you pick them up - I can tell that they not only care but have got to know my son well. Always time for cuddles when needed and the food is great.

Our child has attended Banana Moon for over 2 years now, progressing from babies to toddlers and now in the preschool room. In each room, she has been well looked after and entertained. She happily runs to the door each morning and comes home with lots of talk of all the fun things she has been doing that day. The communication from nursery has been clear and prompt, the app is used to provide updates throughout the day and sometimes photos of their activities. We have been very happy with the care provided and our daughter really enjoys her days at nursery.

Both of my children have gone through Banana Moon Day Nursery from babies to preschool. It is a wonderful nursery with lovely, personable staff. They have looked after my boys with care and built their confidence ready for school. Management is easy to talk to if needed. I highly recommend the nursery.

It is probably enough to say that we have used Banana Moon for three children and 9 years! We have always been very happy with the team, and we cannot pick fault. The staff are all so super friendly, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, always smiling and encouraging of the children. Organisation and communication has always been top notch - both management and the room staff respond to e-mails and messages extremely quickly, there are always plenty of updates on the app, and we are always informed of any changes, including explanations of why decisions have been made. It is clear that the children and staff are the top priorities, but I have always been very grateful of common sense decision making that is sensitive to the busy working parent. Our kids say that the Rocket Room (for the baking) and the outside space (for the toys, trees to climb and hide and seek potential) was their favourite!

The team at Banana Moon Harbury is fantastic! They are all so engaged with what they do and get to know each child. Our little one loves attending and has developed so much during his time there. Every day there is the opportunity to explore different topics and new activities. Can highly recommend it!

My little boy has been attending Banana Moon Day Nursery Harbury for nearly twelve months now and he has absolutely flourished in that time. His communication and understanding are so advanced and it is all down to the great work the team do at the nursery. I've yet to come across anyone in the team who isn't friendly, helpful and kind which is so important as a parent. Within a couple of days of being at the nursery, everyone knew my little boy's name, even if they weren't working in his room, and me and my partner were recognised by the staff so quickly. We have fingerprint access so when we come to collect we can walk straight in and see what the children are up to - this really helps build trust knowing that there are no "special appearances" put on when parents come to collect. The food is fantastic - I can safely say my 2-year-old eats far better than I do and there is always so much going on for the children to be involved with. I would highly recommend the team at Banana Moon Harbury!

My Daughter started at Banana Moon Nursery from the age of 10 months, she is now 4 years old. I highly recommend this nursery. My daughter absolutely loves going to nursery and has created such a close bond with many of the staff there. All staff members are fantastic. The app they use to update you on your child's day is fantastic and its lovely to see and hear all about the fun activities they've been up to. The staff communicate very well if ever there has been a problem whilst my daughter has attended the nursery. All staff are very friendly, welcoming and approachable. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since starting and she's learnt so many new skills. The meal choices are brilliant and provide a great variety. As a busy working mum, it gives me peace of mind knowing my daughter is in safe hands and being looked after and cared for so well. The staff go above and beyond and are so understanding. The facilities, equipment and resources are brilliant. Highly recommend.

After having availability for my child, the staff have been amazing can’t fault them at all, I know my son is very well looked after and his development has come on incredible since he started. His speech, motor skills all have come on so well. Definitely recommend and if we have another child in the future we would send them to this nursery.

My son started at Banana Moon Day Nursery Harbury aged 13 months old - and from the moment he arrived he was treated with such care and love by the staff. They have really created an environment where children thrive. My boy is quite shy and was slow to talk. But his confidence has grown and grown. He trusts the staff completely. He has some very specific interests (planes and tanks) and they embraced his favourite things. Finding pictures of planes for him to draw or paint - looking up facts about planes on the tablet with him and getting him to make tanks. It has really built his confidence to be allowed to be himself so much. The management are great - quick to reply to any questions I have - and the app lets me see what my son has done every day - including food, nappies and lots of pictures of him playing. The outside area is small - but they make the most of it and play outside every day. This is a small village nursery with a real family atmosphere.

My daughter has attended the nursery since September 2020. During her time, she has developed in so many ways through learning and playing inside and out. She has built relationships with friends and also the staff that work there. She has always been happy to go. She has flourished in her three years and prepared ready to go to school. Communication with management and staff has always been great.

My nephew settled really quickly, and each staff member in the baby room take such good care of him! He’s come on developmentally since starting and loves the variety of activities they have on offer each day, especially all the messy and sensory play they do! All staff in the nursery greet us each day with a smile and know each child by name, even staff in other rooms. The food is yummy and has opened a whole range of different food groups to try. The room is calming and inviting and they follow the children’s interest which is really lovely to see! The app they use is fab to see what they have been doing, as well as keeping a log of sleep, nappy changes and invoices. The owner and manager are quick to reply to emails and are very good at offering advice and are always there to answer any questions. My nephew can’t wait to get out of the car in the morning and the smile on his face says it all! Would highly recommend it!

The nursery was highly recommended by everyone so we were pleased when we got a space for our daughter. she is very happy there, the staff are nice and makes me feel relaxed about having my little one out of my sight all-day.

My son has been at Banana Moon Day Nursery Harbury for 7 months now and it's clear he loves his time there! The staff are wonderfully attentive, and loving and just appear to have so much fun with all the babies. I also love all the regular photo updates and captions so lovely to see when you're working a long shift. They are great at communicating via the app and updating it regularly and you can tell they have a lovely relationship with the babies and really care about them.

My child started at the nursery recently and the team have been very welcoming and patient to get him settled in. They have been adaptable and great with him. He is really enjoying his time there and having lots of fun!

My 15 month old son has been in the baby room at Banana Moon Harbury for 6 months. He is very happy at nursery and has a great time learning through play with the nursery team. The girls who work in the baby room are all caring, friendly and helpful. My little boy is really happy to see them every morning. The app is especially useful as I can see what he has eaten, naps and any other activities. The management of the nursery is also very organised. The menus are good and varied. Excellent nursery supported by a family feel.
