View Full Details of Childcare 4 U MarlowMy daughter has been at this nursery for just over two years, starting off in the baby room. While there have been some expected staff changes the care has consistently exceeded my high hopes. She is not only kept safe and well educated, but given all the affection she could want and loves going into nursery each weekday morning. It is an extremely positive, welcoming, and supportive environment and she loves having a close-knit set of peers to engage with. Every carer has been wonderful with her, there is a genuine concern for her well-being from them. Her key carers build very special relationships with her and us. The educational lessons vary widely from foreign languages to sports to practical cooking skills, and she has thrived under the high level of stimulation and learning. We initially felt very guilty leaving her there each workday but it has turned out to be the best thing to stimulate and develop her and give her the best possible preparation for formal schooling and life.
We have had such a positive experience for the first year or so, with a very happy child attending nursery with a smile each day. The team are so warm and nurturing and incredibly kind. We feel very happy with how communicative they are and how they treat our little one. In terms of room for improvemet, it seems the funding 'minimum is set at a much higher rate than other nurseries locally and the communication on this can sometimes feel chaotic but this does not seemingly impact the day to day running of the nursery. My only other very small point of criticism would be if they could avoid having outdoor shoes go into the nursery, it's lovely they often welcome parents in but shoe covers would make me feel more comfortable from a cleanliness perspective
My daughter has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old. They have been fantastic from the start and my daughter loves it - she never starts or ends the day unhappy. She has developed special bonds with her key workers over the past two years and they always show a genuine interest in her behaviours, routine and development to ensure she is thriving and happy. The communication is great, it seems her days are always varied and I love that they spend a lot of time outdoors where possible. The monthly news letters keep us informed and there are occasional events involving parents (Mother's Day, Father's Day etc) which the nursery go above and beyond to provide.
Great place for the kids to go. Happy and helpful staff. The kids seem to come back every week having learnt something new and we can work on it more over the next few days. Happy place. Happy mini people!!
My eldest daughter has attended Childcare 4 U Marlow for just under 3 years and has received fabulous care and support in baby room, toddler room and now preschool. All of the staff who look after her are invested in her well being and really care about providing a safe and encouraging environment for learning and play. Care goes into preparing activities to keep the children entertained and it is nicely complemented by visits outside the nursery to the park. The staff are warm and caring and give really helpful updates on how the children have spent the day and it is really helpful to have the nursery app to receive updates. Only potential area for improvement in my view is slightly more responsive and proactive communication from management, but have only positive things to say about my child's experience and would wholly recommend the nursery to other parents.
The most loveliest nursery and so homely feeling, my child is always smiling when she goes in and when she leaves. 3 staff members in particular are all so lovely and I know my child loves them so much. They always tell me about her day and take the time to tell me about what she's been up to and what she's eaten, which I really like because not many nursery's do that, you can tell the staff really care about all the children. I know my child loves a cuddle and I know she gets everything and more with you. Thank you so much for all of you at Childcare 4 U, you are all honestly little angels in disguises. I don't want my child to grow up I want her to always come here. I can't recommend you enough.
Very happy with Childcare 4 U. Always very welcoming at pick up and drop off - child is very happy. When I have been invited in for pick up I am always impressed with the provision - lots of opportunity for learning from play. Thank you.
My twins are very happy at the nursery, they are always super exciting to go in. The staff take the time to give me a thorough hand over and answer any questions. The nursery is always clean and inviting.
Our child has been at Childcare4U since he was one. The team helped him settle in so well. He is incredibly happy here and we are so pleased with our choice of nursery. We recommend it to all our local friends.
Great experience. We love the regular updates through the app and our child seems so happy with the nursery and all the staff. They seem to do such great activities with them and have fabulous food on offer for them to try a great variety of things! Everyone is kind and friendly.
Amazing staff, very friendly, caring and supportive. Our little one loves it there and we love hearing his stories and the staff recap at the end of each day. Not only are the key workers great, the addition of extra staff means the children are exposed to new language (Spanish) and play ball regularly.
Current management team are great. Love their enthusiasm with all kids and friendly approach with parents. Always available for queries, if needed, and they listen to feedback. The baby room really made settling into nursery so easy and we had a very smooth transition into toddlers. A wealth of experience from the team there. The additional activities the nursery provide are also great, playball is often talked about in our house, My son is very happy here and has a relationship with all staff members. He always loves going to nursery.
Amazing nursery, both my children absolutely love it here. Lots of different activities each day and my oldest has become more confident. Very kind and caring.
Our little boy absolutely loves nursery. All the staff make him feel very safe and secure and are always on hand when he wants a cuddle. They are diligent and will always follow the correct procedure when he has a fall/accident. They are welcoming, kind and attentive and give regular updates and pictures on the development of my child. He seems to enjoy all the food he is given and it's not too unhealthy which is reassuring.
My son has been attending this nursery for 2 years and loves it. The staff are warm, welcoming and friendly. They go out of their way to help with any problems I have with my son or any paperwork. The staff are very knowledgeable and have advised me on behavioural issues and how to deal with them at home. I have recommended this nursery to numerous friends and would send my child here again.
Childcare 4 u has been a very nurturing environment for our children. The staff have been incredibly kind and generous with their time and commitment to the nursery, with many using their free time to support the children. This includes hosting a recent parent's evening and even a Saturday to prepare and host a graduation event for preschoolers heading to school. There are a number of extracurricular activities that our children have enjoyed (Playball and Spanish) and they have thrived in an environment that encourages children to explore their interests. The effort that staff go to for the children has often been above and beyond and the staff have taken their time to get to know our children on an individual level. Our children have grown in confidence during their time at Childcare 4 u and are more often excited to head to the nursery each morning. We feel very lucky knowing that our children are so well cared for in this nursery.
We have thoroughly enjoyed seeing our 4-year-old boy grow in confidence and chatter during his time at Childcare 4 U. Our house completion date was sprung upon us quickly so we found ourselves needing to find childcare in Marlow with little time to plan. When we walked around the nursery we wondered if there was enough space for the children but we got a good vibe from the manager and thought we would take the plunge. In total my son was there for four months and seemed to love every day of it. Each and every one of the staff members I spoke to each day was well informed, positive and still full of energy even at 5.30 pm. They made each child feel special and the personalised debrief on the day went above and beyond what I had expected. I would not hesitate to recommend this nursery to others.
Both our daughters (six years age difference) have attended Childcare 4 U and we have been immensely pleased with the care provided. Staff have been always polite and readily amenable to children's and our needs. The overall good performance was topped up by an amazing graduation ceremony for our younger one today, where staff went out of their way to provide an outstanding experience for the children. This helped our daughter with the difficult transition from pre-school to reception. We highly recommend this nursery to all interested parents.
The nursery is second to none. The manager and deputy are always available. The food is great, and the forest school sessions are excellent. Great environment with excellent facilities. Highly recommend.
The forest school sessions are weekly, which my child has gained great understanding and is thoroughly enjoying each session. The staff team are very welcoming on arrival and always there to talk to if needed. My child has a great time at the nursery and always has a smile on arrival and pick up. Would definitely recommend.
