I have two children at the nursery. They are very different but the staff know them so well as individuals so get the best out of them. My older child has needed a lot of support with confidence and change but all the staff directly involved with her have been so patient and so caring. Always
reassuring me too. Whilst my younger one has the loveliest bond with her key worker already and just shines happiness to be going there. They update each day on the app with food/nappies/sleep then a weekly round up of the activities. Whilst producing a personalised development plan each month. I couldn't recommend them more.

My son started in November 2025 and settled in straight away! He loves coming here and seems to really enjoy the food. It's so nice in the mornings to have a drop off where he is happy to go to the workers. His key worker is lovely and all of the staff in his room seem to love working with the
children. The baby room has loads of toys and equipment and they frequently get to play in the garden. I would 100% recommend this nursery. The manager is also really friendly, I was worried about putting my son in nursery as I used childminders for my oldest daughter but would definitely say this is a good nursery and my son is happy here.

I just want to say a huge thank you to Dona and Olivia for being absolutely amazing since my son started nursery in September. They've made him feel so welcome and settled so quickly, which means the world to me. They're always so kind, caring and patient, and I really appreciate how they always
take the time to reply to my messages and let me know how he's doing throughout the day. It's such a relief knowing he's in such loving hands - you can really tell how much they care about the children. Thank you both for everything you do!

To all staff at the Coop Nursery,
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for how wonderful every one of you has been with our son since he started at the nursery.
We especially want to emphasize the critical role you played in his process of adapting to change and being left in your care.
Every single member of the team has been amazing, and we appreciate the positive impact each of you has had on his journey.
This reassurance gives us incredible peace of mind as parents.
Thank you all so much for your dedication.

Our child has absolutely loved their time at nursery and as parents we have loved having her there. All members of staff are friendly, helpful and caring, you couldn't ask for more for people looking after your child.
You have absolute trust when you drop your child off that they are going to have
a lovely day, be safe, well cared for and come out excited to tell you about their day. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Highly recommended!Staff are excellent and provide high quality care. When we started putting our son in Child Co-op at first we find it hard to leave him there. But the security and assurance of our child development now shows in the long run. He enjoys and learn alot from his teachers and was
taken cared. Always happy to bring home the arts and paper writing he accomplishes everyday. Thank you so much for every hard work teachers, admin and all staff had put in together to continue caring for our little precious children. We are very grateful indeed. GOD bless everyone.

This nursery has been a godsend as it allowed me to return and continue to work happily as I knew my children were being looked after well. They go above and beyond to introduce new things to the children and keep them engaged. The practitioners are kind and care about the children and the you can
tell that management is focused on continual improvement. Thank you Co-operative Southampton!

Our daughter has been going for two days a week since she was 14 months, now 3 years old. She settled quickly, loving all the staff throughout the different rooms as she moved up in age groups.
She has developed greatly under their care, guidance and teaching in all areas.
We particularly like
the weekly updates on activities in the room and the monthly update on our daughter's progress.
We couldn't recommend this nursery enough and our youngest daughter will be starting shortly.
28 March 2025
My daughter enjoys coming here on a daily basis. The staff are all welcoming and accommodating. The meals they provide are 10/10 my daughter eats her portion and asks for seconds! Her favourite part of the nursery is the garden she gets to go out and play in different types of weather.
18 March 2025
Our daughter has attended this nursery since she was 9 months old and it has been excellent since day one. The staff are attentive, friendly and build such great relationships with the children. They are caring and always help whenever needed i.e. naps, toilet training. I know the nursery will
always support with any problem we speak to them about and they always encourage the best from my daughter.
12 March 2025
My son joined Coop Nursery at 10 months old and he is now 3 year. From the very beginning, the staff have been amazing-caring, attentive, and always going above and beyond to provide individualised care.
They have created a nurturing environment where my child has felt safe, happy, and encouraged
to grow. The activities are engaging, and I have seen so much progress in his development, from social skills to confidence and learning.
Another great advantage of Coop Nursery is their long operating hours, which perfectly align with my long shifts at work.
I highly recommend Coop Nursery to any parent looking for a loving, supportive, and well-structured childcare setting. It has been a great experience, and I'm so grateful for the care they provide!
12 March 2025
My daughter has recently started and I am so happy with how they have welcomed us. Very friendly staff, very polite. I always walk away knowing my daughter is in safe hands. When I collect my daughter I love that they give me a chat about the things she got up to in the day. Would definitely
recommend this nursery.
12 March 2025
Our son is at nursery since summer last year and he loves going to the nursery. He loves the carers, he loves to play with other kids, all the activities. Everyone is friendly, nice and helpful when you need.
12 March 2025
My daughter has been attending the nursery and pre-school for about 3 years. She loves going and always has something to tell us about her 'fab day!'. The key worker is amazing and my daughter has grown in confidence and skills. I would recommend this nursery to anyone.
12 March 2025
My daughter has been attending this nursery since November 2021. Through this time she has worked through several of the rooms and in each one she has been loved and nurtured by the staff. They have always genuinely seemed to enjoy having her there, have made a real effort to address and encourage
her interests and have made me feel really comfortable.
The nursery has been good for us as parents - for example when we have wanted to book additional sessions, extend sessions etc and they have given great support around aspects such as potty training.
We're now in preschool and every member of that team makes such an effort with my child - through from immediately welcoming her when she arrives, helping to hone her skills and learning, encouraging her to improve and providing insightful handovers.
My daughter loves going to nursery and thoroughly enjoys her time there. She has made many friendships and I think she will really miss the staff when she moves on in September.
12 March 2025
My daughter has been going here since 2021, as it was our first we were nervous about leaving her. That's when we met one staff member in particular. She is an amazing person, who you can see loves her job. She calmed us and we could instantly see the bond she made with our daughter. This goes for
all the staff here, including management in office. They know you, they know your child and you're welcomed every time you step in the building. Everyone is approachable with concerns and any we've ever had, they have been followed up and dealt with immediately.
It's a lovely place, with huge rooms for the children, large garden/playground, activities and learning everyday.
My daughter loves going here, she latched onto her room leaders and I feel like they love her like their own. From previous staff member mentioned, to another staff member in particular and now another staff member in particular. My daughters progression has come leaps and bounds, it's because of everyone here and their obvious passion for the job.
I've recommend this nursery to anyone I can and will continue to do so
12 March 2025
My son loves coming into nursery, exploring and seeing his friends and staff- I have to ask him to say goodbye because he is so comfortable and gets stuck straight in! They give him perfect opportunities to learn and grow, as well as express himself. The staff give you lovely briefs at the end of
the day, and you can check in via the app to put you at ease. They cater well to needs/allergies.
I could write a long list of staff who have gone above and beyond to make sure he always has a great day and I am well informed at the end of it, especially 2 room leaders.
12 March 2025
Our daughter is going to Co-op childcare in Southampton for the last 2 years.
We cannot be more grateful for the staff to make our daughter's days filled with fun, love and also education. All the practitioners are showing love and care on the best way and all of them are extremely professional.
Very good to see that they keep on with their own education so they can care for the children of different ages.
Co-op childcare was nothing but the best choice we could've made. Perfect place for the little ones to learn and make friends.
We'll be sad in September when we'll say our goodbyes as we are off to school.
12 March 2025
My 2 year son was very unsettled to start as expected, but team's approach was very reassuring, they took care of him very well. Everyone is lovely, two members of staff in particular are exceptional.
Now he seems more settled.
12 March 2025
The staff who have looked after both my children have taken such care and interest in their development and wellbeing.
My youngest had medical issues when he started and the staff were so understanding, accommodating and above all caring.
