We couldn't be happier with this nursery. Our two-year-old daughter loves going, which says everything about the warm and caring environment the staff have created. She is always excited to go in and always comes home happy and clearly well cared for.
The team are kind, patient, and attentive, and
it's obvious they genuinely care about the children. They take the time to understand each child's personality and interests, which has really helped our daughter grow in confidence and independence. We especially appreciate the regular updates and photos that let us see what she's been learning and enjoying throughout the day.
The activities are creative and engaging, and it's lovely to see how much she's developing socially and academically while still having plenty of fun. The nursery always feels clean, safe, and welcoming.
I always recommend Cherubs Mapperley to any other parents who asks. And always praise the nursery when asked what I think of it.

We have had a lovely time taking our daughter to Cherubs. She loves her time there, her transittons between age groups have been managed really well and she always comes home with a funny little story about her day. The activities are really good for her and she has been able to explore her
enjoyment of arts and craft,cooking and outdoor play with the other children. Loves the food as well and seems to eat a much broader range of meals when at Nursery as compaed to at home. (a bit annoying). No complaints at all. Keep it up!

We couldn't be happier with Cherubs, Mapperley. Our son absolutely loves going and has come on so much since starting, especially with his speech and confidence. He loves reading books, playing with cars, painting and spending time outside, and it's lovely to see how his interests are encouraged.
The staff are always friendly and chatty, speak so positively about him, and are genuinely interested in what we've been up to at home and how they can help support him. We're always kept well informed about what's happening.
Most importantly, he's completely settled and genuinely happy there. We're so grateful for the care and encouragement the team give him every day.

Staff have been super supportive since my daughter started over 2 years ago and now are brilliant with my son who started in January.
They have supported with nap transitions, nursery settling in, getting rid of a dummy, potty training.
The staff know the kids really well which is exactly what
you want when leaving your children somewhere for the day!
My daughter particularly loved snowdrops, she was so sad to be leaving the girls to move to preschool, particularly Lily and Lataya were brilliant!

Cherubs nursery is absolutely exceptional. I am so grateful for how well they take care of our daughter, she is besotted with her key workers and on days when she isn't in nursery, talks about them constantly. I receive regular updates throughout the day and I never go a day without photos of my
daughter which is the highlight of my day when at work. Every day they set up special, themed interactive areas or activities. They are incredibly thoughful and take time to give an overview of my daughter's day every evening on pick up. It feels like they really care and it is a close knut group of people who are all really positive, sweet and kind. I sent our son to a different nursery nearby and was so pleased I changed to cherubs as the difference is huge. Cherubs feels very personal and like a big family, you don't feel like a number. My daughter also suffers from a dairy allergy and they managed this really well, offering excellent alternatives every day.

My child has attended Cherubs for around 2-3 years now. We have been really happy with the care she has received, particularly in the baby room and in Snowdrops.
The nursery is well run, safe and has good options in terms of nutrition.
Special mentions to two members of staff in particular for
their help in the early years of my child being at nursery. They made us feel like we were leaving our child in a safe and caring place.
Also to the manager, whose management of the nursery has displayed some great improvements and changes. She has always been very responsive and flexible. She is a great leader and it was noticeable how she has impacted the nursery.
Lastly, to another member of staff in particular, we have seen some amazing changes in our child's confidence since her input. We can't speak highly enough of her.
We will be forever grateful to Cherubs for their help and support over the years.
