The Playhouse is a fun, safe, clean, well run nursery, and our daughter absolutely loved her time there. The staff are very friendly and caring about what they do, with a wide range of educational activities, games and emotional support for little minds to progress. Great nursery.

My daughter has been here for a year now, and after moving from another nursery I was worried. Well, what a difference it makes to find a nursery where you genuinely feel safe leaving your child.
I am so thankful to the team who are always honest and open in their communication, whether it's been
a great day or a tougher one. They truly respect my choices for my daughter, listen carefully, act on everything I ask and always have time if there is anything I need to speak about.
The soft play area is incredibly well thought out and unlike anything I've seen at other settings. It also allows children to mix with the wider group, which really helps when transitioning between rooms. There is also a low turnover of staff and no bank/temp staff so every single team member (incl. the owner) personally know the children as individuals.
'Feel Like Home' is the nursery's motto, and Amir, Ellie, and the room staff have absolutely brought this to life. I highly recommend the Playhouse Nursery!

My daughter has been at this nursery since she was 10 months old and will be leaving for school this in September 2026. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better place for her. The low staff turnover has been so reassuring, with the same kind and familiar faces caring for her and helping her feel
secure. The staff provide enjoyable trips and activities and always keep me well informed about her progress. I've always felt comfortable knowing she is happy and well cared for here.

My daughter has been attending for 9 months, and we couldn't be happier with the level of care she receives. She goes to nursery with the biggest smile. I love how they handled her settling-in period with so much patience and understanding. They took the time to get to know her, made her feel
secure, and supported us as first time parents throughout the process.

We are truly grateful for The Playhouse Nursery! Our child goes there with so much joy - walking in every morning with a big smile and coming home even happier. The team is incredibly warm, caring, and always cheerful. They welcome the children with so much love and attention. The atmosphere feels
cozy and safe - like a second home. We deeply appreciate everything they do for our child every single day.

My daughter attends this nursery and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The teachers are amazing so patient, caring and genuinely supportive. I was very nervous at first because my daughter is quite attached to me but Ellie and Amir made the settling in process incredibly smooth. Their
reassurance and kindness helped both of us feel comfortable and I've already seen such a positive difference in my daughter's development.
Another great bonus is their soft play area which is quite unique most nurseries don't offer anything like it. It's such a fantastic feature and my daughter absolutely loves it.
I would definitely recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a warm, supportive, and enriching environment for their child.

We absolutely love The Playhouse Nursery! Both of my children started when they were just one, and they've truly flourished here. The staff are incredibly caring and genuinely love what they do-it shows in the way they greet, comfort, and celebrate the children every day. There's such a wonderful
variety of activities, and the external specialists for extra sessions are a huge bonus. I love how the nursery uses an app to share photos and updates, so I can see their progress and milestones. The food is always fresh and healthy, and the nursery itself is spotless. The soft play area is fantastic-unlike anything I saw elsewhere! I'm so thankful for the warmth and dedication of the whole team; they go above and beyond and make it feel like one big family. I couldn't imagine a better place for my children to grow, learn, and be loved. Highly recommend!

I am so happy with our experience at The Playhouse Nursery. My girls were attending nursery for nearly 2 years.The staff are incredibly warm, caring, and attentive - they truly make every child feel special and safe. The environment is bright, clean, and full of engaging activities that encourage
creativity and learning. Both of my girls have grown in confidence. Communication with parents is excellent, and it's clear that the team genuinely loves what they do. Highly recommend this nursery to any parent looking for a nurturing and fun place for your little one.

My daughter has been attending the baby room for the past six months, and we couldn't be happier with the care provided. The staff are incredibly caring, attentive, and patient, always making sure she feels safe and loved. We've seen such wonderful progress in our baby's confidence and development
since starting here. It's clear the team genuinely cares about every child's wellbeing - we're so grateful for the positive, nurturing environment they create every day. The soft play area is amazing - our baby absolutely loves it!
03 October 2025
My daughter has been at The Playhouse Nursery since she was just 10 months old, and left in September for school. The staff have been absolutely amazing every step of the way - so caring, professional and supportive. They've helped her grow in confidence, make friends and learn so much. The nursery
is always spotless, and she's loved spending time in the soft play area. We're so grateful for the care and love she's received here and will really miss everyone!

This nursery is amazing and I'm so pleased we chose this environment for our son. The staff and management are fantastic and they clearly love their jobs. The soft play area is an amazing feature, it's great they have access to it everyday! The attention to detail and love that my son received is so
comforting to us, that we would have no hesitation in recommending this nursery to friends and family.

Absolutely an amazing nursery with wonderful caring staff. Thank you for everything you do for our daughter. You all do a wonderful job.The staff are hardworking and friendly. Management is the best team I have ever seen. My daughter always looks forward to going to nursery! It makes my day how the
staff welcome my daughter every single morning with kindness and love. It truly feels like a second home for her and I'm so grateful for the wonderful care she receives. We have seen great progress in our daughter social and learning skills. Thank you so much for everything and we really appreciate your support and care.

I am infinitely grateful to all of you for your care. Only two weeks without you and only a few days before the new school starts, my daughter wanted to spend one more day in her favourite place -The Playhouse Nursery! For the past two years, we have only positive memories. I was very worried at the
beginning, but after meeting with several teachers and getting to know them, I already knew that my child is in good hands and I can recommend them 100%. You are the first teachers to lay the foundation of a beginning and give my daughter a great start!
Will miss you so much!

We are so happy that we chose The Playhouse Nursery. Friendly teachers and management helped our daughter adapt very quickly, and from the very first day to the last day, she attended the nursery with joy. Neither our daughter nor we, as parents, have experienced any problems during her attendance.
We would like to say a big thank you to everyone at The Playhouse Nursery for the care they provided, and we would definitely recommend them.

The nursery is amazing, my daughter is so loved and so happy there. She always comes home with a massive smile on her face. The atmosphere, warmth and love from the staff are everything. My daughter has been attending for the last 2 years and is currently in the preschool room. I can say without a
doubt she has made tremendous progress and they understand my child's needs and tailor-made some learning for her. It's impressive how they have prepared my child for school and we believe she will have a smooth transition to school in September.

I could not be happier with The Playhouse Nursery. All the staff are lovely, supportive and caring. My 7-month-old settled in and has been attending for 1 year and loves attending nursery. The facilities are bright and clean and the soft play area is amazing. Activities are fun and varied and
support development. Overall a fantastic experience for us!
02 July 2024
My daughter attended The Playhouse Nursery from September 2023 to June 2024. She enjoyed going there and enjoyed all activities organised by the nursery. Despite me not being able to speak to the staff directly due to being a full-time working parent, I was informed via email of all the activities,
or the progress that my daughter was making on a daily basis. Highly recommended for toddlers and children. Thank you again.

We had a wonderful time at the nursery, but sadly, we had to find a new one because we moved. Leaving here brings bittersweet feelings, as we cherish the warm memories we've made. Our daughter adored the cuddles and home-like feel of this place. The caring staff made it truly exceptional. We're
thankful for the nurturing environment and the positive impact it had on our daughter's growth. We'll miss you dearly.
23 October 2023
Our daughter is 20 months old and has been attending The Playhouse Nursery since she was 11 months old. We are really happy with the care she receives. All members of staff welcome her with a smile in the morning and she has always been happy to separate from us. The home-from-home environment they
create is so nurturing and loving. The team have been supportive of our child’s dietary needs and they ensure she has a varied diet and eats well. We love the fact that the nursery is clean, tidy, and extremely well-resourced and the soft play area ensures our child and others are physically challenged in their development. I work within Early Years so visited many local nurseries when looking for a place for our daughter and instantly appreciated the set-up of the learning environment, the equipment and the ethos of the management. The children are exposed to so many learning experiences and our daughter has made a real connection with her key worker and peers.
