My child has been with Banana Moon and it is an incredibly positive journey for his development.
The staff are warm, caring, and skilled in engaging with the children. The caregivers are attentive and take the time to understand my child's individual needs and preferences. I feel confident that my
child is in safe hands, and I truly appreciate the open communication with the staff regarding my son's progress and any concerns.
The variety of activities offered is impressive. From arts and crafts to storytime, music, and even outdoor play, there is always something happening. I appreciate how the nursery fosters both creativity and learning through structured activities, as well as plenty of free playtime. They also incorporate early learning concepts like colors, numbers, and shapes in a fun, interactive way. It's clear that the staff puts a lot of effort into planning these activities to help the children develop both socially and academically. I would recommend this nursery to parents

Banana moon are very innovative and creative when it comes to the activities for the children. They take safeguarding very seriously and their communication is the right balance- you're not bombarded with message after message but equally you are well informed. I love my child's keyworker and other
staff there. They care and with nursery fees high everywhere it's nice to feel like a person and family and not just a number in the books. The location could be better but generally it's a great nursery.

Our daughter has been at Banana Moon since she was 9 months old. All the staff have been absolutely amazing, they helped her settle well and are very accommodating to all the children's needs. It's a pleasure to see the little updates on our app each day, with all the pictures of the activities and
fun they have had. Absolutely amazing and definitely would recommend.

My little one truly enjoys this nursery. Since she started attending five days a week, her development has been remarkable. The practitioners are incredibly friendly, supportive, and always ready to help, creating a warm and positive environment.

Our daughter is in the full moons room, the staff there are very friendly, the activities they do seem very varied and it's a good mix of indoor and outdoor play.
In particular she gets to do some baking and food decoration which is good fun and she gets a yummy self made treat for it after too!
The
food they get during the day is also really well planned and balanced, she gets to try all kinds of amazing things made in house by their chef, it's rare she doesn't eat what's given!
They give a good report at the end of the day to let you know what they've been up to and how they've eaten and this is also updated on the parent app too, which is nice as it's very rare you get any major information from her!

As our child's time at nursery comes to an end, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to the whole team. From the very beginning, they were welcomed with such kindness, patience, and care. You've helped them grow in confidence and nurtured a genuine love for learning.
It has been such a joy to
watch their development-not only in their learning, but also in their friendships, independence, and overall happiness. The memories they have made here will stay with them, and with us, for a very long time.
Thank you for the smiles, encouragement, gentle guidance, and fun. You've given our child a wonderful start, and we couldn't be more grateful for everything you've done.

will miss them all enormously. You guys are great.

My little boy has been at BM for around 5-6 weeks now, this was one of the first nursery's that me & my husband looked at and liked straight away, consequently me & my neighbour (as she started to also look for a nursery) looked at many others, we both decided on banana moon due to many factors
including the kindness of staff, the continuation of the same staff, location, good vibes ect. I could go on, my little boy has been poorly recently and was admitted to hospital, i had phone calls to check in from BM, emails asking after him, this was something I didn't expect. Even upon his return to nursery the staff had been asking after him, this meant so much as it shows how much they care, he is settling nicely now and smiles for the girls when we go, he eats amazingly well there, and I love the app with updates showing me what he's done, in the short time he's been there, he is already learning new things and progressing nicely. I feel reassured when dropping him in, always have done.

The staff are all lovely, you can tell that they really care about the children they look after. My daughter loved it there and was very happy and settled. I would and

The team at Banana Moon Harlow are incredible. They supported our quite sensitive daughter as she got used to life at nursery (having never been cared for by anyone other than her parents). The management team are always on hand to answer questions and our daughter absolutely adores her key worker
and the staff in her room.
Our daughter has a few food intolerances and we have felt very reassured by the way staff have handled this. They truly treat every child as an individual, responding to their personalities and needs with thought and care. I've heard a lot of bad stories from friends about other nurseries, but we've had such a good experience at Banana Moon.
31 August 2023
My daughter started with Banana Moon Nursery in April 2023. She enjoys spending time at the nursery and will usually ask to go even on her off days. She speaks highly of the staff and will specifically mention their names and activities they have been engaging in. Staff have been supportive and
attentive to my queries and will respond to emails promptly. My daughter loves the nursery so much that she refers to it as 'my Banana Moon'.
29 August 2023
Banana Moon Day Nursery for my child. Since she started, she has been cared for. I have never felt so at ease. So comfortable to leave my child there. Staff are super nice and super friendly. Would call and update me during the first week to give me peace of mind.
They gave maximum comfort and care
for my child to feel welcome and comfortable. They don't let her get upset. Changing the previous nursery was the best decision ever. Thanks to the amazing staff members.

Banana Moon has been excellent, not only for my child but for me as well. Having gone through a few life changes, I always felt I had the best support and care. The whole team is dedicated to giving the best service for my child and a good influence on her upbringing. My child is happy and always
looking forward to going to nursery; this only indicates she's being well looked after, and she feels comfortable. The staff are always smiley and take the time to talk, and I believe that's really important for a parent. Thank you so much, and keep up the good and hard work.
14 August 2023
Staff are friendly, informative, supportive and knowledgeable, very engaging with me and my son.

Myself and my husband are so pleased with how well our little girl has settled in and how the staff in the baby room have shown her so much care and attention. The girls in the baby room listen to what I say regarding feeds and other things to do with my baby's routine.
My child is always happy
when we collect her and can see this in her photos online too. I love getting her diary and seeing what she has eaten and done throughout the day. She loves being in the garden too. She also wasn't sleeping in her cot and when she came here, one member of staff worked so hard to get her comfortable with this and now she sleeps so well in her cot.

attention at nursery.
