Both of my daughters have attended the nursery since 2020 and I think that is testament to how happy I have been with the level of care provided. My child who currently attends looks forward to going to nursery and speaks fondly of the staff and her friends. Activities are engaging and I my child is encouraged to develop ideas and participate. The nursery is also incredibly clean and safe. Communications are also excellent and I am well informed about my child's day and important notices.

My little boy started at Banana moon in early 2025 and our experience has been amazing. The nursery staff are really friendly and always keep me up to date with his progress. His confidence has grown so much since being there. I would definitely recommend this nursery.

Being a first time mum I was super worried about my baby going to nursery especially with the negative social media surrounding it but I am glad that I gave Banana moon Littleover a chance because my baby absolutely loves it and she has settled in so well, when she started she was exclusively breastfed and I was worried about her eating but now she has grown and developed so much, she is eating, started crawling and now lifting herself to standing position. I am so grateful and thankful to this nursery because they really helped me ease my mind and always giving me reassurance. I love how I am always updated with what my baby is doing and how her day is going. The communication is amazing, the manager and staff are also amazing . They treat my baby with so much care and kindness. This is exactly what I was looking for and I am glad I have found it at this nursery. My baby is always happy smiling there they have really made her to feel welcome. Great experience with this nursery

What can I say? Beautiful experience. Very competent and caring staff. The whole organisation and also the typical day is based on the child's needs and this made the child feel very comfortable and it is a joy for us as parents to see our child happy to go to the nursery every day. Regarding the activities, there is always something new, different feelings every day. Congratulations! 5 stars on everything!

Wonderful nursery, lovely staff. Really helped my son settle when he first started, it's been amazing journey watching him grow, learn and making friends. We are looking forward to our second also joining soon.

My child has been going to Banana Moon Nursery for over 2 years now and I am very happy with the care and consideration they take when looking after my daughter. She loves going and I feel that's a great way to tell if it's a good environment. In addition to this, I feel the staff are very professional, approachable and more than happy to help with any questions I may have. I would recommend this nursery to any parent who wants their child to flourish on a day to day basis with caring knowledgeable staff.

My daughter has been going to Banana Moon Day Nursery Littleover for around 2 years now! She really settled at the nursery and the staff have been amazing. I feel my daughter has built great bonds with various staff, and they have been able to key into her interests. She has come on leaps and bounds since being in nursery and I couldn't be happier with the setting. The manager is a fantastic manager and has great communication. I feel she is approachable and has a great care for the children. One staff member in particular is my daughter's key person and she really takes the time to understand her needs and support her development. Her feedback is always detailed and I can see how she has a great bond with my daughter. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending the nursery! Thank you.

Banana Moon really helped my daughter settle in. So much so that my second will be attending soon. The staff are more than friendly and welcoming, the communication is 10/10, the environment is clean and safe, and the diet is healthy. Can't fault it.
12 February 2025
I like most parents was nervous sending my little one to nursery but Banana Moon has made it an easy and informative transition. The updates daily and the messaging options are fantastic which means I can ask questions about my little one and receive responses promptly. The staff have been so welcoming and are amazing with my little one. His key worker has been amazing as well as other staff. He loves all of them! They always make me feel at ease leaving my little one in their care. Couldn't praise the staff and the nursery enough! So happy we chose this nursery for my baby's journey.

Our child is just nearing the end of her time at Banana Moon Day Nursery Littleover. She joined at 1 year old during COVID19 precautions when the nursery was newly opened, she is now 4 and starting school this month. It started as a mixed experience with some teething issues being so new and changes of management but the current manager has created a great environment with lots of themed days and improved communication. Our daughter has particularly enjoyed her time in Full Moons where, with the support of the friendly, engaging, caring and competent room staff, she has grown in confidence and had a lot of fun whilst learning. The recent graduation party was a particular highlight for us all, and way above and beyond our expectations. Thank you for taking such great care of our daughter and supporting her during her early years. She's going to miss you!

Banana Moon Day Nursery has always been my top nursery. The staff are very friendly, they work with parents to support growth and development with the child. If anything happens to your child they always make contact with the parent. Excellent communication. Clean and good variety of meals.

Banana Moon Nursery in Littleover is just everything you could ask for. It’s full of lots of fun and exciting activities which we get updates for via photos and videos. The staff go above and beyond and the management team is always there to have a chat and to answer your questions. I would highly recommend bringing your child to Banana Moon Littleover. My nephew always tells me the exciting things he gets up to and has a big smile on his face.

My daughter has recently started in Baby Moons, the staff have worked so hard to settle her in. The communication during the day is fantastic, and the feedback at the end of the day can’t be faulted at all.
19 April 2024
Please don’t send your child to this nursery! Very Poor leadership from senior members of staff. The staff do not follow simple policies and procedures! Gave my child food she couldn’t have and was put into the hospital for days. An unacceptable mistake from a senior member of staff especially after having me fill out new allergy forms 3 hours before and going through all her symptoms and still being given what she can’t have is appalling. Find a better place for your child to attend don’t trust Banana Moon!

Since starting in the baby moons room, my daughter has excelled and more importantly, she is happy and enjoys her time there. My daughter's key worker has a great relationship with her and has clearly spent a lot of time building such a good relationship. She is greeted by staff in the morning and regardless of who answers the door, is happy to see them. The nursery informs us of any updates, changes to staffing/policy or sickness/illnesses in a timely manner. I have never raised any concerns but feel confident that they would be dealt with effectively and honestly. My daughter has three meals a day (often seconds too!) and the food is balanced and healthy. Banana Moon Day Nursery is clean and bright and there is an array of different activities. The entrance to the nursery highlights the staffing structure and identifies the designated safeguarding leads. We receive regular updates throughout the day. The team really are wonderful and it is a pleasure to have found a nursery that my daughter enjoys so much.

My daughter loves going there. She even goes and hugs some of the carers when she finishes her day. Drawings and activities are sent home so you can keep your little ones first pieces of art.You get daily feedback through the app and also in person at pick up time which is great. They called you instantly if something happens, even if it’s minor.

Both my children started at Banana Moon Day Nursery Littleover early this year and I cannot fault the care in the staff. My youngest son in babies has come on leaps and bounds and grown so much in confidence. His key person has developed a beautiful bond with him and we praise her for the care and warmth she shows towards him, he settled so quickly into their routine as he has never been left with anyone before. My older son has been showing an interest in numbers and letters at home and his key person has continued his interest in Full Moons by introducing him to recognising the letters in his name and starting to write; along with number recognition. He has begun recognising double digits. Well done to one staff member in particular in Full Moons for supporting his interests and continuing to help him grow with his independence. He has a beautiful bond with her, as he looks forward to going to nursery!
29 September 2023
Our daughter is growing in confidence and has now begun telling us about her friends at nursery and the fun things they all do together. She is always bringing artwork home too. The staff always explain what they have been doing when we collect her. All of this is reinforced via the app.
