My daughter has been attending Apple Day Nursery since April 2025 when she was 10 months old. I can honestly say that I am very happy that I chose Apple Day Nursery. My daughter has developed so quickly in such a short period of time. The staff team did a great job with the settling period which supported a good transition for my daughter. I find the communication between staff exceptional as when i share one thing to one staff member, the rest of the staff team in the room are all aware on the same day. My daughter enjoys coming to Apple Day Nursery. Apple Day Nursery uses child focused approach. The team are so loving and caring. I would highly recommend Apple Day Nursery.

We have been very happy with the care provided for our daughter at Apple Day Nursery. She has settled well in the past 9 months with support from the staff. We would like to suggest an area for gardening and grain/mud play, as think this would improve some sensory experiences. Also, it would be nice to have a covered area to wait when collecting/dropping off children. Our daughter, since attending, has come home with significant developments (using a tissue, putting on a coat, for example). We would strongly recommend Apple Day to other parents in the area.

My daughter started with Apple Day in May of this year. I was shown the nursery, the manager & her approachable warm personality eased my nerves as Hallie is my first child & I was nervous to leave her in the care of anyone! I loved how clean and organised it was, the amount of resources they had for the children & how engaging the staff were. I knew it was the one! As well as keeping parents informed thoughout the day on the app they also discuss how my child has been that day at every pick up. I am happy with the healthy food that they provide & the amount given. The most important though being their openness & honesty- if anything happens with my daughter or they are concerned they phone. For example she had a bruise on her leg that I forgot to mention & they phoned me as soon as they spotted it during her nappy change to find out how she got it etc they are very vigilant. My daughter loves her key worker Hanife & smiles each morning when I drop her off. Thank you

Apple Day Nursery was the best choice for my daughter. Since she joined she was very welcomed and she settled so easy (earlier that expected) and the staff were always so kind and they reassured me that she will be in good hands. She loved being there and she is definitelly miss everyone there. All of the rooms that she has been in she was looked after and my mind was at peace knowing she is happy and loved there whilst focusing on my career. She learned so much and her journey at the Apple Day Nursery was an amazing one, from a little baby to a young lady ready to start a new chapter - Reception. I loved the books that we received with pictures from key moment when she learned so much. I also love the Famly app where staff were sharing videos and photos with ehat she did in a day. Thank you everyone at Apple Day Nursery for being part of my daughter's learning journey! I highly reccomend this place!

My son started at Apple Day when he was just 9 months old, and he has been there right up until starting school this year. From the very beginning, the staff worked tirelessly to make sure all his needs were met, showing patience, love, and genuine care. As a SEN child, the journey could have been difficult, but Apple Day made it such a positive experience, supporting not only my son but also our whole family through every stage. When the process of his autism diagnosis began, the staff, especially Ama, were incredible. They helped guide us through it, offering support, understanding, and reassurance. Their knowledge and dedication gave us the confidence to face each step, and they always made my son feel safe, valued, and understood. Every pick-up was so informative - we always knew what he had been doing during the day and how we could support his development at home. This communication made us feel like true partners in his learning and growth.

I cannot recommend Apple Day Nursery enough! My son is always so happy to spend the day there, and it gives me great peace of mind knowing he is in such a caring and playful environment. The staff are wonderful, so kind and patient, especially from room Green 2 are so attentive to my son's needs. For anyone looking for a nursery where the child will be well cared, safe and happy I highly recommend the Apple Day Nursery.

My 6year old ( now in primary school) attended Apple Day Nursery and 2 year old currently attends. It's such a beautiful atmosphere and environment for any child to grow in. Staff are so nurturing and supportive to children and families. My 6 year old was very much prepared for primary school when time came. She learned so much and staff showed genuine interest in her progress and development. Daily activities for learning and encouragement by staff is exceptional. There's always very good communication between management, staff and parents which is so helpful. My 2year old is so happy at nursery and is learning so much already. He's built great relationships with staff and other children and it's simply beautiful.

I would highly recommend this nursery if you're looking for a safe and nurturing place for your child. In terms of education, safety, food hygiene, staff being polite and always there to help. Food is amazing, especially the couscous. My child is coming home and talking about the couscous he ate. The management team as well as the staff are always amazing and happy to help support my child. I leave to work in peace of mind. Best nursery in the area.

My daughter has been attending Apple Day Nursery since Feb 2024. She was 2.5 years when she started. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the manager has been very supportive from the beginning. My daughter used to cry almost every day and I never thought she would settle let alone stay for 5 long weekdays. Now she says 'nursery' even on weekends. She loves the routine, loves the staff and feels so welcomed and appreciated. Nursery setting is also so good, spacious and enough resources to keep the kids occupied and learn new skills. The communication from nursery is also great and nice to see a lot of social events being organised where parents can also be involved. Sports day was the highlight for me! I think I enjoyed it as much as my daughter. Highly recommend this nursery. Must also add the food is great as my little one has never missed eating her meal fully!

Both my children have attended Apple Day Nursery from when they were young babies - my son was 7 months when he started there full time and my daughter 15 months (just after Covid). My daughter started school last year and was very well prepared for this, having learned numbers/alphabet/writing already through the nursery, so I was really impressed that she was already ahead in this area. My son is still at the nursery and he loves it, runs in happy every day - the staff are incredibly caring, the facilities are great and they have aircon which is important when it's baking hot in the summer. The food is varied and they eat well with an onsite chef unlike some other nurseries. The hours are brilliant for us as we need to get into work early. The staff are often doing exciting activities with the children, the outdoor space is good and used often too which is important to me. I'm overall very impressed with the nursery and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others!

The nursery has a lovely team of staff and management. With daily activities, my child's development has greatly improved since she attends Apple Day Nursery. They also have great communication with parents. Great job to the team and management. The environment is excellent and I am so pleased we chose this nursery for our daughter. The love and care my daughter receives are both very reassuring and comforting, she is attending this nursery since she was 1 year old. She enjoys it very much and has made a lot of friends. I am impressed with the variety of fun and learning activities that the children have at the nursery. Never any concerns and very clean as well.

Apple Day has been one of the best places I could have chosen for my son, he started when he was 1 year old, since then he developed so well! The staff in any of the rooms is so professional, showing amazing care and love for every child. From baby room to purple room where my son is now he created an amazing bond with any of the staff! My son also is a picky eater and surprisingly he is eating everything in there. If you are looking for a nursery where your child wants to be loved and taken care of I will highly recommend Apple Day!

Our son has been attending Apple Day Nursery for over a year now. The staff/teachers couldn't be more likeable, affectionate and caring. They give us peace of mind between drop off and pick up times, the whole time. Our son and all his fellow babies learn, engage, and have fun, all catered for and looked after very well with affection. He shows massive improvement in development and language learning and clearly shows self-confidence. Apple Day Nursery is highly recommended.

Our journey with Apple Day Nursery began when our son was 1 and a half years old. As first-time parents, we were naturally apprehensive about sending our son to a nursery. However, our visit to Apple Day Nursery put our fears to rest. We were immediately impressed by the facilities that were not just new but also child-friendly. The initial few weeks were a period of adjustment for our son, but the staff at Apple Day Nursery, went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to three members of staff for their efforts. Our son has also formed special bonds with three members of staff who he adores. They have truly made a difference in our son's life and we are confident that he is in good hands. Now, our son is so comfortable at Apple Day Nursery that he often doesn't want to leave when we come to pick him up. This is a testament to the nurturing and engaging environment that Apple Day Nursery provides. Thank you!

Apple Day is a lovely place. Wonderful caring staff, fantastic facilities. Our child has made fabulous friends since being there in his early months. They always have loads of activities for learning and encouragement and are very good at communicating with parents about progress regularly. He and I love it and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.
29 March 2023
From the moment I was pregnant, we visited Apple Day and looked no further. We knew it had everything we wanted for our child to flourish. Not only has it met our expectations, but exceeded them. Staff are caring and nurturing as well as focused on really developing your child. Even though our child will be one of the very youngest going to school, I have no doubt that she is ready, helped by the preparation from this nursery and commitment to child development. Can’t thank them enough for all their input! Will be sad to leave!

Our daughter has been attending Apple Day Nursery for two and a half years and she absolutely loves it. It was highly recommended to us by a local parent and we can see why. Staff are skilled, warm, kind, fun and nurturing. It is very clear that the staff all enjoy working with the kids, and also want them to learn and develop as much as possible. Every week is packed with fun activities, as well as extra opportunities such as a trip to the theatre at Christmas time and a fantastic summer party for kids, staff and parents! We get a detailed handover at pick-up time, as well as scheduled detailed meetings with our daughter’s key worker. The menu is brilliant - the kids eat such a fantastic varied diet of freshly cooked nutritious food and learn great habits about eating together. The facilities are clean and colourful. There is a focus on sports, education and even French classes. We would highly recommend this fantastic nursery and all the amazing staff who work tirelessly there!

Both of our children attend Apple Day Nursery and have done for a few years. They both love coming there. They offer lots of activities and really support their development. I have recommended Apple Day Nursery to several friends also whose children now attend and they are also very happy with it.

Our baby just started going to Apple Day Nursery recently and she is now 8 months old. She is still settling in but the staff have been immensely caring, supportive, and attentive. I am hoping our baby will start to enjoy her time in the coming months. I feel her needs are attended to sufficiently and I like the social aspect and diversity of the activities they do. I have already recommended this nursery to a friend, for her baby.
