We couldn't be happier with our experience at Cherry Tree, the staff are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive, creating a warm and nurturing environment where our child feels safe and happy every day. The activities are engaging and thoughtfully planned, helping our little one grow in confidence, creativity, and social skills.

My child has been at the nursery for a year and he has loved every minute. He has grown in confidence, learnt so much and had some amazing experiences. He really enjoys the football coach who comes in every two weeks and the yoga teacher! The staff are easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. Communication is clear and I receive regular updates about my child, and the weekly newsletter keeps you in the loop on what is happening, plus has resources to explore. The food is healthy, delicious and varied. They provide a wide selection of meals so the children can explore new food. The staff are caring, warm and put the children first. I am gutted my child is leaving for school as I know both he and I will miss the nursery!

We've had a brilliant experience with Cherry Tree Nursery. Our little boy, has settled in so well, which has been a huge reassurance for us as parents. The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Communication is always fast and clear and we receive regular updates about our son's day, including meals and naps. The office staff are also fantastic-responses are always speedy, helpful, and informative, which really puts our minds at ease. The nursery environment is clean, bright, and thoughtfully set up with a wide range of engaging, age-appropriate activities. It's clear that the team genuinely care about the children and work hard to create a warm, supportive atmosphere. He always seems happy when we drop him off and pick him up, and it's lovely to see how comfortable he feels there. We're so glad we chose Cherry Tree and would happily recommend it to other families looking for a high-quality, nurturing setting.

My 2 daughters have attended cherry Trees over the years and I would highly recommend them! The staff are great with the kids and the communication with parents is fantastic! Both of my girls have loved attending the nursery and were both very sad to leave. If your looking for somewhere to send your children then this is the place!

We are really impressed with Cherry Trees Nursery, the staff are very professional and friendly, and are great with our baby son. He is learning so much and his development is noticeable since starting at Cherry Trees.

We would like to thank to Cherry Trees Day Cranfield nursery staff for the support given to us during the last couple of years with both of our kids. We are amazed by the kindness and professionalism of the staff from Cherry Tree Nursery in Cranfield. We are very pleased with the progress made with both of our kids. Special thanks to one staff member in particular (for always listening and supporting), to a staff member in Ladybirds room for being so dedicated and lovely, to another member of staff (ex Bumblebee room) for patience and support, to another member of staff (now Ladybirds) for her kindness and another member of staff (pre-school) for being lovely, patient and kind and to the cook for the best food ever. All of you made such a difference! Thank you for being part of our lives! I couldn't recommend more Cherry Trees Day Nursery!

Lovely welcoming staff. Lots of great resources and an overall caring environment. My granddaughter has taken a while to settle and the staff have shown such kindness and understanding, this has led to her becoming so much, this has led to her becoming so much more confident.

Our son has been attending this nursery since he was 11 weeks old and we couldn't be happier. The staff are wonderful-caring, attentive and always make him feel safe and loved. Now that he's one, he loves coming every day, excited to see his friends and explore new activities. Communication is great and we always get updates on his progress. We're so grateful for the nurturing environment and highly recommend this nursery to any parent!

My daughter attended the nursery from one year old up to a few days before starting school. She progressed so well, under the care of some excellent staff. The preschool room in particular really challenged and prepared her for school. Her younger brother is now there and doing equally as well. The staff are great at engaging with their individual interests. He is well settled and looked after, having made strong connections with the staff. Would highly recommend.

Our son has been enjoying going to Cherry Trees Day Nursery (Cranfield) right from the start. He settled very well due to the fantastic settling in period and the amazing staff. He is always so happy to go and he literally jumps from my arms to go to his keyworkers. We could not be happier. Special thanks to the caterpillars team.

Our daughter is 2 and has started nursery for the first time. I was extremely nervous about how it would go but I needn't have been. Cherry Trees Day Nursery have been communicative, supportive, responsive and empathetic. My daughter is already thriving in the environment and we can see massive positive changes in her. Special mention for the staff in Bumblebees room who not only transitioned my daughter into nursery incredibly patiently and kindly, but also supported me with my endless questions and allowed me to feel all the feelings of a mum leaving her baby for the first time!

I have 2 children attending the nursery. Both receive consistent and excellent care. I feel that their needs are met and staff are always on hand to assist with queries and give an accurate report of the day. We recently had a situation where I needed to enroll my youngest a month earlier than planned and the nursery got us all sorted out in terms of settle sessions and admin, which was a great help to us. My oldest always reports on all the lovely activities he has taken part in when he comes home. He really looks forward to coming to nursery so thank you so much to the team for providing excellent care.

Our son is having his settling-in sessions to start nursery in October, and what a lovely experience it has been. The staff from all stages are great, very friendly, and make you all feel at home. He is comfortable at Cherry Trees and we are kept up to date with how his day is going - it's a big comfort as this is our first baby and a new life experience being at nursery. Thank you so much for looking after our son, he loves it with you!

We have two children in the nursery, at present and both have received excellent care and support, which is tailored to their individual needs. I feel happy that my children are safe and being well looked after. They have both learnt so much and are thriving being in the nursery environment and with the care of all the staff.
19 March 2024
I've just heard the news that my daughter has secured a place at prep school for this September, following a recent successful Stay and Play session. I have no doubt that her time at Cherry Trees has been a huge contributing factor to this. Her confidence, speech, writing ability, kindness and independence have been greatly influenced by the Cherry Trees team. Forever grateful!

We absolutely love Cherry Trees Day Nursery, it’s reassuring to know our daughter is cared for by the best. We had used another setting nearby and the difference is outstanding. It’s very comforting to know she’s welcomed with open arms each morning and that she has lots of different activities to do to encourage her development. All of the staff have been extremely friendly and welcoming, but especially two members of staff in particular for going above and beyond in helping to settle our daughter in.

I am so grateful Cherry Trees is our local nursery. I feel so at ease leaving my children in the fantastic care of all the workers here! The entire experience of drop off, from the warm welcome by reception to the amazing key workers taking the children off for a day of fun and learning! We wouldn't take our children anywhere else!
16 November 2023
Overall we are very pleased with the level of care our children receive. All employees know our children by name, which is lovely to see. The only point I would like to raise is communicating when key workers are off long-term sick. We don't need to know the details, just who will be our child's 'new key worker' during their absence.
10 November 2023
We wouldn't choose another nursery, we love the care at Cherry Trees and know our children are in the safest hands. My child always talks so highly about his key workers and forms amazing bonds. Very open communication and we love the extras they put on, such as Christmas Fetes and Halloween parties.

I absolutely love this nursery! They are such a welcoming team of people that work so well together. I’ve never been to a more organised and well-put together nursery where everyone makes such an effort to make me and my daughter feel comfortable. The nursery is bright and clean with so my activities for the children to get involved in. I’m so pleased my daughter was able to get a space here as you really cannot fault this nursery!
