I have been fortunate to attend Knighton Day for the last 10 years with 2 children. I cannot emphasise enough how wonderful this nursery is. They have been a wonderful support and a big part of our village. I am so very sad to say goodbye.

The most incredible nursery with the most incredible staff! Knighton Day Nursery is a really special place, their approach, ethos and commitment is second to none! I would recommend this nursery without a doubt!

My twin girls have attended Knighton Day Nursery since they were 10 months old. From the settling in sessions alone I knew it was the perfect choice.
It is a home from home, with all the added extra learning opportunities.
The areas are so spacious including a lovely garden area, with separate
section for the young ones.
We loved the natural approach the nursery uses with natural resources only, really benefits the children.
My children are particularly fussy with their food at home, however at nursery the variety of home cooked food that is offered has helped them with new foods, and allowed us to have new items on the menu at home too!
The staff are so knowledgeable, caring and fully invested in the children's care and development.
We will be so upset when they leave in September to start school.
The best start for any child's eduction and care.

Excellent! Have looked after our son very well and we are looking to send our second next year.

Since starting our child has loved nursery and seems to really relish it and look forward to it. She has a great rapport with the staff who are approachable, professional and well versed in their field.
Lovely surroundings and facilities to encourage independence and growth in the little ones too.

Knighton Day Nursery has been outstanding in all aspects of care for our son who has additional medical needs. They embraced the challenges of his needs with great care and kindness. We have never worried about leaving him in their capable hands. All the staff are highly trained, caring and loving
towards all the children.
Our son has experienced some wonderful, creative projects through the nursery and has thrived in the curiosity approach. I would highly recommend Knighton Day Nursery.

The best nursery! The staff are amazing, always providing support and anything that the children need, they are always willing to give 100% to the children and are there when I have anything I want to talk about. The nursery has been a home from home for my children since 2016 and I wouldn't send
them anywhere else.

Our daughter has been going to Knighton Day Nursery for the past year and a half. During her time there we have felt the staff have gone above and beyond in their care, providing engaging, creative and fun activities as well as a loving environment where our daughter has flourished, seeing
improvements in her communication and motor skills each week. I would highly recommend this nursery.

The staff at the nursery have been absolutely amazing and I can’t thank them enough for the care given to both of my daughters. My first daughter has SEN and the nursery have fully supported her with all her needs and worked well with her external agencies. My second daughter took a while to get
used to being in nursery and she is so happy and content now thanks to the supportive staff. I highly recommend the nursery!

Knighton Day Nursery in my opinion is the very best place, both of my children have attended full time. It has a wonderful, nurturing environment that has allowed my children from 9 months to flourish. All staff are warm, welcoming and committed to ensure that children have the very best day. Each
day is different, enabling to explore and discover new things. My children have enjoyed a variety of activities throughout their time there and given that they both went fulltime that is quite an accomplishment.

Over the past seven years, two of my children have attended Knighton Day Nursery from age 1 up until they started school. The nursery is a wonderful, caring and fun setting and both my children had such a brilliant time. The staff are amazing. Caring, loving and cannot do enough for you. The
facilities and activities are fantastic. I cannot recommend Knighton Day Nursery enough.

Brilliant preschool, the staff are so friendly and are great with the kids. Great opportunities like learning French. Imaginative things to play with like the water play area and mud kitchen. Big fun garden with lots to do. We couldn't have chosen anywhere better.

My daughter enjoys her time spent at nursery and is well cared for by the same staff each week.
They have a great range of activities and she gets lots of access to the garden and outdoor toys too.
The staff have got to know her likes and dislikes very quickly and provide activities which
they know she will enjoy.
