My daughter loved her time at base buddies. She became even more independent and confident and always came out smiley. The staff were lovely and friendly, great with updates and daily photos.
Sad for her to leave but with a move we didn't have a choice. She will miss the friends shes made and the
fun she had there. Thank you for everything!

My son came to Base Buddies from another nursery, where he'd had trouble settling in. I was anxious about the transition but the staff at Base Buddies reassured me and engaged with my son immediately when we first visited. The setting is lovely - clean and bright with lots of different toys and
activities for the children to explore. My son grew in confidence from the very first day. It was a far cry from our experience at the other nursery. By the second week, he was practically jumping out of his pushchair and banging on the doors to be let in. I could tell he was getting lots of interaction and attention from staff, with whom he formed meaningful attachments. His vocabulary exploded; all of a sudden he was saying so many new words. He was excited to go in every day and he'd come out happy and covered in whatever messy play they'd been doing that day. I would highly recommend this nursery to anyone. The staff are amazing and the children are well cared for, it's a home away from home

I'm absolutely over the moon with our experience with Base Buddies. My two children have attended the nursery now for the last 2 months and absolutely love it. Their days are filled with exciting and educational activities that are both engaging and great for their development. The team are friendly
and approachable and both children are really engaged with their key workers. Nursery management are very understanding of the challenges we face as a military family and go out of their way to offer additional support wherever possible.
I can't recommend base buddies enough.

My two children are 14 months apart (2 and 1 years old) and love going to Base Buddies! They seem to really enjoy spending their days there. I no longer have to worry about their well being when I drop them off because I know they are in safe hands.
My daughter, especially has grown leaps and
bounds since starting about a month and a half ago. She used to be extremely shy and weary of others, barely interacting with her brother or other kids for that matter. Now we can see her personality coming through and she has emerged into a bubbly little girl who dotes on her brother constantly.
My son is the baby of the family, he's always been super clingy and unsure of being away from Mommy. Fast forward to now, watching them walk daily with confidence, into the doors of the Nursery with joy when they see their teachers.
I would highly recommend Base Buddies Day Nursery to anyone who is in search of childcare for their children. Mine are a testament to the brilliant job they're doing.

Outstanding Nursery - Truly Exceptional Care
Base Buddies Nursery has been nothing short of incredible for our family. My daughter has complex needs, and from the very first show-around, the team made us feel completely supported, understood, and welcomed. Their warmth, expertise, and genuine
commitment to her wellbeing have exceeded every expectation.
The staff consistently go above and beyond to make sure she feels safe, included, and happy. They take the time to understand her individual needs, communicate with us openly, and adapt their approach thoughtfully so she can thrive. It's clear that they care deeply about every child who walks through their doors.
Finding a setting that truly embraces and celebrates children with additional needs is rare. Base Buddies Nursery does this effortlessly, with professionalism and kindness at the heart of everything they do. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found them, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
