Our son attended this nursery for over a year, and we couldn't be happier with the experience he had. From day one, the staff were incredibly friendly, caring, and welcoming. The nursery is always full of fun, with a wonderful mix of creative, crafty play and engaging activities that kept our son excited to go every day. We're so grateful to the team for creating such a nurturing, stimulating environment where children can thrive, explore, and just be themselves. Thank you for giving our son such a happy start.

My daughter started attending this nursery when she was just 2 years old, and it has been the best place for her. The staff are incredibly caring, patient, and hardworking. They truly go above and beyond to create a safe, nurturing, and fun environment for the children. A very good and dedicated team - I highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a supportive and loving place for their child to grow and learn.

We couldn't fault Dolly Daycare - it's been absolutely amazing for our little boy. He's been attending 2 days a week for almost a year now, and in all that time the team have been nothing but trustworthy, reliable, nurturing, supportive and loving. They treat him like family and always greet him with the biggest smiles. He always tells us how much he loves the nursery staff and the other children. He adores his keyworker - He talks about her a lot and still calls her "nursery cake" because he couldn't pronounce her name properly, so now it has just stuck. Thank you for all you do for our little boy, it's such a relief knowing that he's not only well cared but he is loved at Dolly Daycare and as parents we couldn't ask for more.

My son started in September, and since starting, he's become more confident & talking more. The staff have been really good with him, especially in the beginning when he took a while to settle. I've had nothing but great things to say about the nursery & staff!

My daughter loves Dollys, she's always asking when she's next going in, and she's happy when I collect her and tells me all the fun things she's done that day. The staff are amazing with the kids and any questions or issues you have are no trouble for them, highly recommend this nursery.

We had such a positive experience with the nursery. The staff were supportive, kind and caring to my children and made me feel at ease. They really encourage my children's confidence and independence. We will always remember our time with Dolly's Day Care and would recommend it to friends and family.

Dolly's has been amazing for my foster son, he has thrived and felt safe and loved within the environment. The staff have all been amazing and an integral part of his late development and emotional needs. He has loved his time here and has learned self-confidence and the ability to make new friends easily. He will love and miss Dolly's.

My little boy attends Dolly's and absolutely loves it. He asks me on a daily basis when he can go back to school (currently in the summer holidays) he loves all of the key workers there and has settled in so well. They do a range of different activities which are themed each week. From Sea Life to occupations. They cover everything. They also educate the children about different celebrations for all religions which I also love. They do lots of different activities which involve learning colours, counting numbers, puzzles, singing songs, and dancing. My son used to hate getting dirty, but since attending Dolly's he enjoys painting and isn't too worried about getting his hands dirty which I feel is a real breakthrough. He has also learned to go to the toilet by himself and wash his hands. They have a good routine there and it's clear all of the staff love their jobs. When you join Dolly's you become part of their family. With staff showing care compassion and empathy for each child.

The staff, the manager and her team have shown excellent care. Attention towards my grandaughter since joining Dolly Day Care. My granddaughter has grown into a confident sassy little girl and I am immensely proud of everything she has achieved and will go on to achieve in her life. The fundamental things she and the team have encouraged her to learn through play and care. She will take with her throughout her life. Thank you for everything and for looking out for her. I would not hesitate to recommend Dolly Day Care to any friends or family.

Both my children went hear from the age of 2, I love everything about Dolly's Daycare, the staff are all so lovely and welcoming and make you feel very confident in them looking after your children. Both my children loved nursery and loved one staff member in particular, she is amazing! Most of the time my children didn't want to leave nursery they enjoyed it that much! Love that it's a small nursery too! Cannot fault anything about the last four years here. Both my children have thrived in school because of the brilliant start they had at nursery. We still visit time to time as my children love going back to see the staff. Thank you for everything you've all been amazing!

Both my children have been to this nursery and I must say over the last 2 years it has gone even better. The staff are amazing they help the children with all aspects of learning and keep us parents in the loop step by step with a brilliant app, you see just what your child has learned from day to day, with photos, videos and daily reports, it's fantastic. I will be so sad to see my little girl leave here and I know she will be sad to move on to big school in September because of how happy she has been here and how much she loves every single one of the staff here. Very highly recommend this nursery!

Would highly recommend Dolly's (Parkfarm) to anyone. Both daughters have been/go here and both love the staff and nursery. Accommodating, happy and helpful staff, always very welcoming. Lovely nursery and my girls have learnt so much whilst being there. Fairly small nursery with less children than some others which is why we chose it.

Lovely little setting making it a lovely little nursery, very personal and a home from home experience. Two of my children have been to Dolly’s and have thoroughly enjoyed their time at nursery. Loads of activity’s both inside and outside the setting, little trips out which the kids love. All the staff are so welcoming and friendly and you can tell they love what they do. My little boy was so difficult to leave, but the nursery never failed to try every attempt to make him more confident with me leaving him there, and I felt totally at ease that he would get the right care and attention to settle him quickly enough to enjoy his day.

You could not wish to find a more nurturing and loving preschool. A wonderful daycare, very knowledgeable, friendly staff who really care. Our little one loves going to Dollys Daycare, even on weekends he is asking if we're going to drop him to nursery to see his friends. He loves the staff from there. I would highly recommend, we are so happy with our choice.

Have done an amazing job with my youngest boy, he's always happy when he goes, full of excitement. The staff are amazing and always helpful. They always notify me of any changes with my boy and he's learnt so much more than I could have taught him at home.

Dolly's Daycare is an excellent nursery. My daughter has really thrived there. She has learnt so many new skills and enjoys going to this friendly environment. The staff are excellent with both the children and the parents/carers. The new Tapestry system has been a brilliant and well-used tool, that has allowed me to see the many educational and fun activities organised throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Dolly's Daycare to anyone looking to enrol their child at nursery.
