My son started here when he just turned one, he was always a clingy baby so i was sceptical of how sending him away to nursery will turn out but the staff here is incredibly supportive and understanding. It took him a while to settle which was expected but they all understood he just needed some extra cuddles from time to time which they gave to him happily. They keep you updated about everything your child does, do fun and age appropriate activities. Now he enjoys nursery and has settled in incredibly well to the point where somedays he doesnt want to come home 😂 my sister in law recommended this nursery to me cause her daughter went here a couple years ago, when i mentioned her name they remembered who she was and pointed her out in pictures which just goes to show what kind of connection they have with the children. Would recommend it 100%

Absolutely hands down the best nursery, we had tried a couple others prior to adventure land but our daughter just never settled, she took to this place straight away! All the staff are lovely and so helpful, the place itself is also amazing, very clean and they always have new projects / things for the kids to do, you can tell they genuinely care about all the children there. My daughter has come on leaps since starting. The meals provided are very high standard too and there is always a variety and healthy too. Considering the current cost of living always increasing I find there prices to be VERY reasonable for the services they provide! Highly recommended to anyone looking for nursery care.

When we decided to send our daughter to Nursery we visited many nurseries but Adventureland Day Nursery was the only one that she was happy to walk off and explore on a visit. All of the staff were kind and reassuring and I knew from that first visit that this was the nursery place for her. Now she is showing an increase in her development which is being noticed in nursery and at home. I can’t thank the Adventureland Day Nursery staff enough for their support and guidance the past 6 months

We looked around several different nursery's in the local area and although Adventureland wasn't the closest to where we live it had the friendliest staff and just a very "homely" vibe. It was colourful, cheerful and very welcoming straight away and I instantly knew Lottie would be so happy here and I was right. My little girl has not spent a day away from me in her 3 year life so I was very hesitatant to leave her but I honestly cannot praise them enough. She LOVES coming coming to Nursery and has settled so well. Thank you Adventureland for making our Nursery journey so far such a positive one 😊
